Oceanview Beach House - steps from the beach, really close to Galveston. TipSea!

We have the blender you bring the drinks to Feelin’ TipSea, a West Galveston beach house! This 3 bedroom 2 baths quaint beachside home in Spanish Grant is located on a low-traffic lot-perfect for families with kids. It is a short 2 minute walk to the private beach accessible only to the residents and vacationers in Spanish Grant-no vehicle traffic to disturb your relaxing day on the beach and not fighting crowds for a spot on the beach. Feelin’ TipSea can easily sleep up to 10 guests.

The home showcases vaulted stained planked ceilings. The well-appointed living/kitchen provides views to the gulf and is complete with a large island that seats 4 and dining table that seats 8. The main living area on the first floor has ceramic tile and all of the bedrooms have carpet. The second floor bedroom with stained planked ceilings is currently used as a bunk room with 3 sets of bunk beds. The ground floor has a hot/cold shower to rinse the sand away, washer, and dryer. Additional features include WiFi, smart TVs (in living room and bunk room), and board games for family friendly competition.
The horizon views of the Gulf of Mexico can be enjoyed from the deck on the sturdy patio furniture with wine or coffee in hand. The wrap around deck makes for a great sunrise or sunset view point. The ground level has a large picnic table, a charcoal grill, and outdoor lighting that makes a great place to hang out day or night. The ground level storage room contains beach chairs and a wagon full of kids beach toys (buckets, shovels, etc.).
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Great, low-key beach getaway

Everything went great. Tons of places to sleep, literally a two minute walk to a private beach, and close enough to the city to duck out for dinner or groceries. We'll be coming back.

The home is as described. Compact, well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, walking distance to beach. Host responded quickly especially to my questions the week of check in. Quiet location away from Galveston proper congestion during holiday or peak season but close enough to grocery store and attractions. We would stay again.

We had a fabulous stay at the house. The girls enjoyed having the bunk room to themselves and we older ladies enjoyed the bedrooms on the main level. So happy to have a walk-in shower. Kitchen facilities were great and it was really nice having access to the washer and dryer. Would definitely recommend it. My favorite place was sitting on the porch watching the waves and the pelican fly-bys.
