Contemporary Beachside Home w/ Hardwood Floors, Large Deck & More
Dreaming of rest & relaxation? Look no further! Spoonbill Sanctuary is a beach house the whole family (pups included!) will love calling home for your Galveston vacation. Take advantage of the large main deck, open living area, spacious bedrooms, and short walk to the beach.
Step inside and you’ll find high ceilings, hardwood floors, and a wall of windows that make the living area bright & airy. The colorful accents are a fun touch and add to the character of the home. Sit back and relax on the comfortable sectional or catch a movie on the large TV. The galley-style kitchen is close by, fully-equipped with all the pots, pans, and utensils you’ll need. Serve up morning meals at the breakfast bar, or eat together at the large dining table.
All of the bedrooms boast deck access - perfect for slow mornings in the Gulf breeze. The primary king suite has plenty of closet space and en suite bathroom with a walk-in shower. Another king bedroom is down the hall, with a full bathroom and washer & dryer set nearby. Upstairs, the dorm-style queen/twins bedroom has an en suite bathroom with a double vanity, walk-in shower, and garden tub. It’s a great size for kids, teens, or a whole family!
Start your mornings together on the expansive main deck. Sunbathe on the comfortable loungers, dine al fresco under the cover, or look take advantage of peek-a-boo Gulf views. The beach is just a short walk away past 8 neighbors, so pack your beach cart!

Not a bad place to stay at all.
Close to the beach and I would recommend if you have never been to Pirates Beach. We rented here a few times..Not crowded and golf cart friendly on the streets.

Great place, but needs improvement.
The property location and check in/check out were excellent. The house was great except we did have major issues with ants inside and outside the home as well as more than a dozen wasp nests. If you drop one spec of crumb on the floor you will turn around to a million ants. It was terrible. We had to go buy spray. The house also needs some work. The hammock outside literally fell when my daughter sat on it. Left a bump on her head, a huge scrape on her bottom and elbow. The hardware holding it up was rusted so it literally snapped in half and the wooden pier they had it in was rotted. The other swing on the porch is rusted and almost fell over when I sat on it. So we didn't use either. The outside water hose spicket is rusted and cut my finger. The water pressure was low so it made it hard to shower or wash dishes. Other than that the home is beautiful and the location was perfect!
