About this property

Beach Candy - Beachfront Family-Friendly Home!

Welcome home to Beach Candy, an expansive 2-story beachfront oasis located in Surfside Beach, an unspoiled fishing community conveniently located just south of Houston. The soaring two-story ceiling in this open floor plan provides gorgeous views of the water from almost every room of the house. With a large lot running from Blue Water Highway to the Gulf, guests have their own private drive. This home allows ample outdoor space for families to savor their time with their loved ones.

Family-owned and managed, Beach Candy offers personal touches such as flexible arrival and departure days, beds made upon arrival, and high-quality linens and towels. We provide coffee and tea for that first morning on the beach as well as staples such as toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, hand soap, and laundry and dishwashing detergent.

At Beach Candy, we provide all that guests desire for an enjoyable day outside and inside. For time at the beach, we supply plastic buckets and shovels, boogie boards, and beach chairs. Visitors can hang out in the expansive yard and play on our built-in washer game court or our bean bag game board. After a day at the beach, Beach Candy offers entertainment options such as high-speed internet, Xfinity cable TV, board games, puzzles, and a collection of books and DVD’s. Visitors will enjoy smart TVs in every bedroom.

One of its most inviting features, Beach Candy's large deck beckons guests with ample chairs and umbrellas. Visitors can walk out on the deck to enjoy the breeze on their face, the beautiful blue water, and the soothing melody of the Gulf waves. For those with small children, guests can close the gate to the stairs to keep the little ones safe. The panoramic view of the Gulf waits 24 hours a day.

Summer is not the only season to visit the coast. The offseason offers empty beaches, more affordable lodging, and an opportunity to enjoy the tranquil surroundings and slower pace without the crowds.

At our fabulous family home, you are only steps away from the beach and your dream vacation!

Wild Waves at Surfside!

The property "Beach Candy" at Surfside Beach, TX, was exceptional in so many ways!! The house was equipped with top-notch kitchen appliances. Spacious, and tastefully decorated, open concept living spaces, with all the amenities of entertainment available throughout the house! We woke up to breathtaking views of sunrises over the Gulf. Spent many days on the beach, grilled dinners at sunsets and visited local restaurants and stores in the area...even a Buc-ee's close-by too!! We highly recommend this vacation home to anyone looking forward to a beautiful getaway! We'd definitely LOVE to come back someday!!

Best Rental Ever!

The most friendly hosts that I have experienced yet. The ease of check in to the easiest check out. The home is very welcoming and doesn't feel like a rental at all! It's as if a family member allowed us to use their home. It was very well equipped with everything you might like to have. The beach views and access was fantastic! Loved the outdoor shower with hot and cold water. Sunrises were amazing! My family and I would love to return. It was a great family vacation!!

About the host

Hosted by Amy and Mike Titus

Having grown up in Pasadena, I loved to travel to Surfside beach with my family. Along with my grandparents, my aunts, and my mother, we would all pile into our precious one room beach house for the weekend. Immediately upon arriving, we clambered down to the surf to build sandcastles, collect thousands of shells, romp around in the water, and visit on the deck overlooking the Gulf. Preparing the meal was a family affair, as we would all pack into the car together to drive into town to select fresh fish and shrimp for supper. After our feast, as the sun dipped into the horizon behind us, we would cluster around the kitchen table to play cards or watch the tiny, grainy TV. Fully satisfied and a little sunburned, I would fall asleep under an open window, lulled by the sound and smell of the waves. I loved every minute of these weekends and treasure the memories to this day.

After Mike and I married and established our family, we wanted to continue this tradition, nourishing this same love for beach life with our three children. This desire awakened a passion to invest in a house where we could continue to create these wonderful family memories for ourselves as well as for others that come to visit our home.

Why they chose this property

Returning to Surfside Beach was the only choice for Mike and me. In Surfside, we step back in time. A single road leads in and out of town without a skyscraper or large hotel chain in sight. We relish eating at one of the locally owned restaurants, lingering over savory food as we watch for dolphin in the water. The slow pace in Surfside allows us to relax and embrace the simpler pleasures of spending time together.

What makes this property unique

With this house, Mike and I possess every item on our beach house wish list. We enjoy beautiful Gulf views from almost every room. We can step out on the spacious deck, listen to the surf, and enjoy a drink as we relax and reconnect with nature. For our family members that have young children, the beach is only steps away so that we may gather on the beach for boogie boarding, sandcastle sculpting, shell collecting, and frolicking in the water. Most importantly, this warm inviting house allows us the opportunity to recapture the slower pace of life as we draw closer to our friends and family. With this beautiful home, we come full circle back to my childhood as we establish more memories with those people most important to us.
