About this property

4/4 Home in Pointe West Resort. Heated Lazy River & clean pedestrian only beach

***The restaurant is currently under renovation and the plan is to be open by Memorial Day. If it is behind schedule, Plan B is that Food Trucks will be there on most weekends. Please keep this in mind while booking that Poolside service might not be available yet.)


“The Rosy Spoonbill” is excited to welcome you to the best community in Galveston and our very comfortable home with serene views and amenities galore.

We are just one short block to the wide, groomed beach and a half mile from the Pointe West Beach Club. The Beach Club Pool and The Sunset Pool with lazy river and hot tubs are open 365 days a year and boast beautiful views of the ocean and the bay. These pools and the golf cart and bike paths are sure to make Pointe West your favorite place to stay on Galveston Island!

We use our home often and keep it well stocked for cooking and entertaining guests.
Just bring your swimsuit and clothes and enjoy our little slice of heaven.

We can direct you where to rent Golf Carts, Kayaks and Bikes should you want to fully experience island life while you are here. You are going to love it! (We also rent our 4-seater Golf Cart, to licensed drivers only, when available.)

***RESORT FEE: Please note that you will need to obtain a wristband and access code from the Pointe West Beach Club to take full advantage of the resort facilities (pools, gym, clubhouse game room, Basketball and Pickle ball courts, restaurant and bar). They charge $25 per guest 4 years old and older for the entire length of your stay. This fee will be paid directly to the club upon registration. *** (You will receive an email from the Pointe West POA to prepay for your wristbands. The primary guest on your reservation will need to show an ID at the Beach Club Office to pick up the wristbands and parking passes.) ***Wristband fees increased to $25/per person in 2023. The fee is not mandatory. If you do not plan to use the pools and other amenities during your stay, you do not have to purchase the wristbands.***

There is a new restaurant owner coming in Spring 2023. The following hours may change but should only be better. The Pointe Restaurant & Bar was open Tuesday-Sunday during the Summer and Thursday-Sunday after Labor Day. Closed on Mondays except on Holiday weekends. Make sure you take advantage of their delicious food and fun drinks and enjoy a Live Band every Saturday night in the Summer and often Fridays & Saturdays on the Holiday Weekends. The Pointe West Beach Club is so much fun! There are other activities to enjoy like S’mores, Bingo Nights, Crafts for Kids, DJ’s And Live Bands periodically. Please note that The Pointe Restaurant is totally closed November through February for the Winter Season.

The pools and hot tubs are open 365 days a year! That is what makes this resort unique!
EXCITING NEWS!!!! The Lazy River Pool is now heated!

Sea Mist Gifts: The gift shop at Pointe West Beach Club has beach toys, goggles, toiletries and basics as well as tons of great Beach Fashion, home decor and accessories at great prices. They have water, chips, and ice cream for $1! Please stop by and say “Hi” to Alice and see all of the treasures packed into her tiny shop. If you forgot something, she probably has it! Sea Mist Gifts is open 7 days a week during the Summer and Friday-Sunday during the mid season and closes for winter.

Other nearby restaurants:

The West End Marina and The Sandbar @ Sea Isle;
There is a Food Truck Park in Sea Isle during high season.

Way West Grill , Nate’s Seafood and Steaks, Ja Mocha Bean Coffee and Wine Bar, The Galvestonite Bistro, Venado's Mexican restaurant and Subway in Jamaica Beach.

Pointe West Activities:

🏊‍♀️🍹 🍽 Make sure to check out both pools. The main Beach Club pool is on Pointe West Boulevard. This pool has The Pointe Restaurant and Bar and offers poolside service and live music on Saturday nights in the Summer. 🌅 The Sunset Pool, also known as the Lazy River Pool, is on Estuary on the Far West End of the neighborhood and on the Bay side. Be sure to see a sunset from there! 🥂 This is the BYOB pool as there is not a café there. You can take your own food to both pools if you desire—Just no alcohol to the Beach Club. 🍻🍹

🎣 The largest fishing pier and the kayak launch/mowed entry area for wade fishing are on Bay Water Drive. There is also a fire-pit there. 🛶 🔥

🍦An Ice cream truck comes through Neighborhood and to the Lazy River pool daily during high season. (He does take credit cards.) 🍦

🏀 The Basketball Court is on Cat Tail in Pointe West (Daylight hours only; access with wristband code.) Bring your Basketball. We have one in our beach gear closet and an air pump, but, if you are avid players, you will want your good ball. 🏀

🏓 Pickleball Court is located near the Basketball Court. Reserve your time and rent Racquets in the office. 🏓

⛳️ 🚙 I recommend renting a Golf Cart because it is just fun to have one in Pointe West. We rent our 4 seaters starting at $250/each for a long weekend and up to $400/each for the week (tax included.) If you want a 6-seater, Try K-6 Island Sports or Coastal Cruisers. K-6 also rents kayaks and Stand-up Paddle Boards that you can use on the bay side and in the ocean on a calm day. 🏄‍♂️ 🛶

🚴 There are bikes for rent for 2 hour intervals from the Beach Club. 🚲


House Information:

Our beach storage closet is stocked! Chairs, umbrellas, tent, wagon, toys, floats and a couple of child life jackets and puddle jumpers.

🪣 🏖 Please rinse off toys and beach gear on your last day before returning to the closet. We would so appreciate it if you leave the storage closet semi-organized for the enjoyment of the next guests. It can get jumbled in there! 🪣

🧺 We do provide beach towels. Please wash,dry, fold those on your last day to avoid a surcharge. The housekeeper takes care of all other laundry. 🧺

🏝 The beach crossover ramp is at the end of our street about 8 houses away.

🚿 Please rinse off in the outdoor shower when returning from beach. Our furniture and floors and DRAINS do not like that much sand!🚿


**Please know that we do utilize EXTERIOR cameras for security. This is for your safety and ours! We do not use INTERIOR cameras. Thank you for understanding and respecting our property!**

Thanksgiving Getaway
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Rosy Spoonbill for the Thanksgiving holiday. The home was plenty big enough for 6 adults and 6 children, 8 and under. The home was clean, and the kitchen was stocked with just about everything we needed for meal prep and serving! In addition, they supplied travel cribs for the little ones and a baby gate for safety. It was a short walk to the beach and we enjoyed being able to get to Galveston easily while being 'outside' of all the tourist hustle and bustle. Courtney was an excellent host and responded to all our questions/concerns promptly. We would definitely recommend the home to others and will stay there again when in the Galveston area.

Great place for a family vacation
Our entire family had a great time at this house. The beach was enjoyable without the feeling of overcrowded. It was a little bit of a walk down but not too bad. The house was tremendously well-stocked. We have had homes where you have to bring your own cups and plates if you have more than 5 ppl, so this was just such a delight. Everything was taken care of and the hosts were fantastic. They communicated well and were prompt to respond. The porches were nice to sit on in the evening. We always drove to the clubhouse, but it wasn't very far. The hosts even had a packnplay for my 1.5yr old and a stair guard that we could put up for her safety. Overall - a wonderful stay was had by our entire party. And the hosts made is such an easy and fun trip - cheers to them. One small note - The upstairs room does get a little warm but they provided some additional fans.
