Beachfront, Pet Friendly house with unobstructed views and Gulf of Mexico

FRESHLY RENOVATED!!! Sea Haven is a beach lover's dream! This cozy beachfront property in Sunny Beach offers limitless, spectacular views of the Gulf of Mexico. Situated just steps away from the beach it is a fan favorite for all ages. Perfect for multiple families or couples traveling together. This vacation rental easily accommodates 10 - 12 people with its open floor plan, covered deck, and cleared path to the beach!

Step inside and the crisp color palette with coastal accents creates a refreshing oasis. Gather around the living area and admire the beachfront views through the windows. Watch the shorebirds darting in and out of the surf from the dining table. Cooking together in the well-planned kitchen is easy with plentiful counter space. Pots, pans, and utensils are all included. Bond over breakfast in the morning or while enjoying fresh Gulf seafood dinners at night!

The two king bedrooms feature spectacular Gulf views, so wake up and fall asleep to the sounds of the waves. The two double-bed rooms are tucked in the back, so the kids and teens can stay up late or sleep in while the adults enjoy their morning coffee. Multiple TVs also make it easy to entertain different ages and interests.

Sea Haven is a short drive away from all of Galveston's best attractions, bars, and restaurants. Moody Gardens and Galveston Schlitterbahn are 10 minutes away. The Galveston Pleasure Pier is15 minutes away and the Strand is 20 minutes away. If you are feeling to venture a little further out the Kemah boardwalk is only a 40-minute drive away but well worth the trip.

Speaking of the beach - you’ll love watching the waves glide in from the comfort of your deck. A variety of outdoor furniture makes it easy for everyone to lounge around on island time. With a cleared path just off the backyard, it’s easy to hit the sand any time of day!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fenced private yard, and a coffee maker. Housekeeping is available on request.

We loved the view! Enjoying the ocean view was our favorite part of our trip. The house could have been cleaner. We found old food wrappers from the previous guest between the bed and wall. I also didn’t notice on the listing that the house doesn’t have an ice maker, but we just bought bags of ice so it worked out.

Great beach house overall! Parking is a bit tight under the house but there’s also room to park in the gravel driveway. The grassy/sandy path to the beach could be more cleared—but it was still usable and convenient (pic included). No mosquitoes during our stay (fabulous), and the yard was perfect for our dog.The location is unbeatable—directly on the beach. The house felt a little smaller than we’re used to, but the photos are accurate. There are four nice bedrooms with big beds and TVs in every room except one. Bathrooms had great water pressure, drained well, and always had hot water. We also loved the outdoor shower with hot water and also a hose—perfect for rinsing off.The porch is huge with plenty of seating. It quickly became one of our favorite places to relax in the mornings.Bathrooms aren’t attached to bedrooms, which actually made them more convenient for everyone to use. Lots of hooks for towels and bathing suits, and the house came with a generous supply of towels.The kitchen has a good amount of counter space, a large sink with garbage disposal, and an electric stove. Bring extra paper towels and your own detergent if you’re staying for a week. Driving on the beach in the section in front of the house wasn’t allowed, which meant less crowds and more space.All in all, a comfortable, well-stocked home in a perfect location. We’d definitely stay again!

Great location and great house!

I love this house and definitely would love to book it again in the future. With a beach side location, the view is incredible and access to the beach/water was so simple. Also, delivery to the property is available. I used Doordash during our stay. Or, stores like Walmart are just a few miles away.The interior of the house was very clean. Everything worked properly, including the very fast wifi. The beds were comfortable and the air conditioning worked great. I HIGHLY recommend this house.

It’s nice

Was not told a tv was not working in a bedroom which is a need for disabled boys the owners comment came across rude about other TV’s in the house ! a shade in the living room is missing a piece.it’s right at the beach access and people pull in and out.It is a nice house it does shake a lot but it is that kind of house in all fairness do to the weather it was understandable.It was clean they make sure everything you need is there and has a beautiful view on a L shape balcony it is away from town, all in all if I was to go back it would be a place to stay again.
Right on the beach , loved that.

The house was clean, comfortable and well equipped. Location was easy to get to, right on the beach. Public beach access is next to property and was very busy but not bothersome. The only negative was difficulty locking/unlocking door and too many remotes for l8ving room TV

Awesome home, view, and location

We had an absolutely lovely stay. The home is laid out perfectly and the deck is absolutely wonderful. We will definitely be back!The host was incredibly responsive… We had a minor issue with the AC upon arrival, but the host got us squared away ever so quickly and was super responsive, which we truly appreciate as premier hosts ourselves.
