Waterfront vacation rentals in Galveston County

Beautiful home! My family loved the space, my son loved the fun touches in the house. Very neat, and tidy. Pool was nice, and we felt rested! Would absolutely stay here again! Thank you so much!

Lovely spot to relax and spend a weekend getaway. Would definitely love to visit again! Well appointed space with great kitchen for nights when you want to cook and relax. Lovely breezes from the water and view of the Gulf!

My wife and I were very happy with our stay from start to finish. David and Grace were very proactive in communication before we even arrived. Their condo is very clean and well maintained. It was also exactly as pictured. The property is an older property, but it was clean and and quiet for our weekday stay. David and Grace's condo has been updated and is beautiful and comfortable. The patio view over the pool and to the beach was perfect. The "Little Things" were definitely very well done. The kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans, dishes, silverware and even some storage containers. There is a microwave that is not pictured on the listing, which was a welcome bonus. We enjoyed so much that we are booking again in August so our kids can join us next time. Thank you David and Grace for wonderful and affordable stay.

Very cozy place. Felt like home. Great location. Crossing Seawall Blvd to get to the water was easy and could be done with small children. Douglas is a great and prompt communicator. Highly recommend.

It was perfect me and my kids will be staying again.

Very last minute stay, and hosts were very communicative! Nothing but kind to me and my friends! Their stay was very quiet and lost to do in the area. I would definitely come and stay here again!

This was our second stay at this unit. Daniel and Sam are wonderful hosts—kind and communicative throughout. The unit itself is very clean and beautifully maintained, with stunning beach views from the balcony. Highly recommended! We would love to return in the future.

Great place to stay!

Would definitely stay there again!

We had a wonderful stay. The beach front access and view were amazing and the location is private and quiet - perfect for a family vacation .

This was a beautiful home right on the water and it was an amazing stay! The host is nothing short of friendly and helpful with anything you need done! Would definitely stay here again if I go back!

We had a great stay! The location was absolutely perfect right across from shops and restaurants! Close to the beach and everything you could need! We look forward to staying again!

Huyen was so helpful and responsive when it came to needing to check in a bit earlier. The place was absolutely beautiful and clean inside. Would recommend to anyone wanting to stay here!!

Great new house super clean and great view , I personally liked the less busy more peaceful location yet not too far from local stores and restaurants. 3 Kings a plus. ..Bob

Overall had a great stay! A few things to note for future b&bers: The only staircase is a black spiral staircase, which was a little difficult for our older family members to manage. The cooking utensils/food storage is a bit on the sparse side, if you plan on doing a lot of cooking/having leftovers, you may want to bring some cheap plastic Tupperware! The bbq grill/beach gear leaves a lot to be desired! It has definitely seen the wear and tear of previous guests. Which isn’t a big deal, but not something to depend on using without some TLC. Overall our stay was amazing. It’s a dream location with amazing beach access. The beds were phenomenal, and I will miss how comfortable it was. Shannon was an amazing host and left fresh flowers and apothecary items for us leaving the whole place smelling amazing our whole visit. I would absolutely recommend Mermaid manor to anyone visiting the area!

Love this air bnb! The history of it was neat. The pool was amazing and a big hit! And the beds were extremely comfortable.

Great spot near the beach! Perfect for our small family. Loved that we had access to beach chairs & beach toys. Pool area was awesome and it was nice to walk right out from the condo to the pool. Fun themed condo which was very clean and inviting. Great host! Thanks again!

our 2nd return, loved being on the beach, perfect location, met our needs perfectly

Great stay! By far the cleanest air bnb we have stayed in! So many amenities provided and so thoughtful to include beach items and such for the family! Host went above and beyond.

The only negative I can say about it is that the street between the condo unit and the beach is quite busy and noisy, but we knew the street was there from the pictures so we weren’t surprised.

The condo is well-stocked with dishes, cookware, and bathroom amenities. There is also a chest on the balcony containing a variety of recreational items for the beach. And there's a full-sized washer and dryer. I'll keep this on my list when I return.

Easy check in process at the condominium. Staff was helpful and courteous. Plenty of parking . Carts available for loading / unloading. Easy and safe access to the beach. Outside showers available for use prior to coming back in. The unit itself is wonderful. Shanna has the unit well decorated and not lacking for anything. Nice touch with the bottle of wine waiting to greet you. The view of the Gulf and the ships from the 9th floor is incredible. It was very relaxing to sit on the balcony while listening to the roaring surf. Shanna had a number of items available in the unit for use at the beach (some beach chairs, cabana for shade, beach wagon). The front desk has a phone number for a third party company if additional equipment is needed for the beach. We really enjoyed our stay @ Shanna's Sea Spot on Galveston Island. She is a great host.

Our stay was so peaceful and fun! Just what we needed! Everything felt clean and cozy. Thank you for a great stay!

Location was fabulous, the condo was perfect for 3 adults and a toddler. Wendy had everything we needed except for food and drink. She even had coffee with sugar and creamer at the ready! Wendy notified me prior to check in that the cleaner reported the fold out bed in the couch had a broke leg and was willing to have a replacement delivered the same night! I declined as it wasn’t necessary for us and we wouldn’t need that extra bed. She was prompt with communication and was clear with check in and check out instructions. Front office was friendly and actually had affordable laundry soap so I didn’t have to make another trip to Walmart which btw is walking distance! The pools were fabulous and the condo is right outside the more kid friendly pool. Elevator was broke by our room but we managed. We could have used one on the opposite side but it wasn’t terrible for us. This is located on the top floor (4th floor) definitely keeping this gem saved! Great first time A-BNB experience! ❤️
