The home was very well appointed with everything we could ever need and access to the beach was just a short walk. We also could sit on the patio and listen to the beach. The tiki bar below was a dream for my husband to watch football and enjoy Sunday afternoon.
The house was in great shape, the beach a short walk, and the tiki space downstairs was a wonderful place to relax or recover from the sun. Definitely lived up to its listing!
The house was exactly as advertised. The host had very thoughtful supplies, so we had most everything we needed. Easy walk to the beach, and the downstairs is really nice and covered. We hope to be back in the future!
Loved how close the house was to the beach and the ground level entertainment area! Although the landscaping was dead & just not upkept, probably due to the cold weather, we still enjoyed it. Would definitely recommend this house to persons with kiddos that want their own space. Great deck to watch sunrise. Would definitely book again.
Beachside family retreat was amazing! Don’t hesitate to book this wonderful accommodations. We had 3 elementary aged children, grandparents and the house was great for everyone. The private beach is about 25 steps away and you can watch the family from either balcony’s. The house was very clean, spacious, well stocked with all your cooking needs, the AC worked great and the board games were perfect for rainy days. All the rooms were super clean with comfy beds! The tiki bar was such a nice touch to a beach house!
We had a great time at the tiki house! The house was great for what we needed. The downstairs porch is amazing and we stayed down there the majority of the time. The beach was very easy to get to with the whole family. The only things we did not enjoy were the mosquitoes, they were horrible. Also, there is a house directly in front of the tiki house that blocks a lot of the view of the beach but you can still see it from the side. All around it’s a great house and the host is amazing as well.
Our family decided to have a quick 3 night getaway to Galveston. We stayed at Tiki Time for the first time. Nicole was very helpful with the booking process. Great location! The kids enjoyed walking to the beach in the early morning and evening to look for shells. We did have an issue when we checked in with the kitchen faucet that was quickly taken care of by Nicole. Great communication! Thank you!
This property is amazing and has everything you need. It is about a 1 minute walk to the beach and the views are amazing from the balconys, even being on the second row. We had 5 adults and 6 kids and all had a blast with bunk rooms for the kids, and all sets of adults got their own room. Kitchen had more than most rentals we are used to, something we will know for next time...we can pack much lighter! Plenty of beach items available for use. The Tiki bar/outside area was a blast! Outside tv, dart board, and cornhole made for fun evenings after relaxing on the beach all day. Close to store for cooking ingredients we forgot. We will definitely be back!
We had an amazing stay at the Summer Beachside Retreat! The house is in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood and just a short walk from the beach. The views were beautiful and the home itself had everything we needed for a comfortable family trip, from a well-stocked kitchen to beach towels and boogie boards. My kids used them every single day and had the time of their lives riding the waves.Nicole was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay, making check-in and any questions a breeze. Highly recommend this rental for families looking for a relaxing, fun-filled beach vacation. We’ll definitely be coming back!
Wonderful place to have a family vacation. Tiki house beautiful! The family loved the closeness to the beach. Many sunrises and sunsets were viewed from the deck. Will definitely recommend this beautiful beach house.
You can tell the owners put thought into every detail! This place was beautiful inside and has an amazing outdoor experience! Great views, right on the beach, the Tiki Bar was a huge hit! We loved our stay! Our family will come back every summer! Everything you could want in a vacation house!
My family stayed here over spring break. The house was perfect! I was so impressed with the comforts that it provided: all beds were super comfortable, large TVs in each room, great internet connection, open concept, FANTASTIC OUTDOOR SPACE AND ACCESS TO THE BEACH! The host was so quick to respond to any questions and was very kind! I definitely recommend and our family looks forward to going back soon!
Everything was perfect. Never got the party lights to work but that no biggie. Very clean and accommodating. Beds very comfortable. Will stay there again.
Great location and amazing outdoor area! The ground floor Tiki Hut area is amazing. Ground floor Private bathroom, refrigerator, ice maker and TV. You don’t even have to go upstairs. Upstairs was great as well. Will rent again soon.
Nicole is extremely helpful, very accommodating and very quick to respond to any questions. Our house was very clean and had all of the necessities for our stay (rainy day games, TV's, and a cool, Tiki bar for relaxing). The Tiki Hut bar area is fenced in so we could keep an eye on our little ones, while the teens enjoyed the bikes and the adults relaxed in this secluded community beach area. We loved this beach house!
