Beachfront, Great Deck, 2Q BR + Bunk Room, Dog Friendly, Steps from Sand & Surf
Welcome to Sandy Beach Retreat, a fun and relaxed beach house in the heart of Sea Isle, Galveston—perfect for families, friends, and anyone looking to kick back just steps from the surf. With two queen bedrooms and a bunk room designed for kids or extra guests, this breezy getaway has everything you need for a laid-back coastal vacation, including beachfront Gulf views, game-time fun, and plenty of outdoor space to soak in the salty air.
The main level sets the tone with an open living area full of natural light, vaulted ceilings, and a wall of windows that frame the sparkling Gulf. The living room is a cozy hub for lounging and movie nights, and the added arcade games make it just as much a play zone as a chill zone. The kitchen is well-equipped with stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bar for casual bites or morning coffee, while the dining area offers a comfortable table for six with deck access just steps away. The main level also features the primary suite, complete with a queen bed, private deck access, and an en suite bathroom—ideal for recharging after a long day of beach adventures. A washer and dryer are also conveniently located on this floor to keep your beachwear fresh.
Upstairs, a hallway sitting area gives guests an extra spot to read, play games, or simply take a break. Two bedrooms share this level—one with a queen bed and private access to a small balcony, and the other with two pyramid bunks that are perfect for kids or teens. A full bathroom serves both rooms, and the upper deck is a great place to stargaze or catch the sunrise with a cup of coffee.
With central A/C, ceiling fans throughout, and two spacious decks—one shaded, one open to the sun—Sandy Beach Retreat offers comfort and Gulf breezes around the clock. Pet lovers will be happy to know the home is pet friendly too, so even your four-legged family members can join in on the fun. Whether you're walking to the beach, hanging out on the deck, or challenging the kids to a round of arcade games, Sandy Beach Retreat has everything you need for a stress-free escape.
