Summer Wind, Beachfront with incredible views! 5 miles from Galveston sea wall!
About this house rental
Situated in Hitchcock, this lovely house for $377 per night is a fantastic option for your next vacation. There is bed space for 10 people. 8 or 9 adults is comfortable. We do allow up to 11, with one on the couch or on the spare mattress that is under the bed. This beachfront home has one of the best views of any home on the West End, yet close to the fun of downtown Galveston. Easy walk to Galveston State Park. Our beach has a private feeling and is very quiet (no cars are allowed to drive on beach thus no worries about the kids/dogs). Once you cross the bridge from the mainland you will find a unique experience. We feel like we are entering a different world when we visit our beachfront island home! This is a pet friendly home with a pet fee of $75 per pet. COVID-19: The house is ideal for social distancing. The beach is not crowded, there is plenty of outdoor deck space, and I recently upgraded the HVAC with a media filter and a UV air treatment system. Our cleaning company disinfects all touch surfaces (light switches, door knobs, counter tops, etc). If at any time our beach is closed down, the city prohibits short term rentals, or there is a state wide lock-down and you are prevented from using your reservation I will return all money paid. Please stay healthy! MISC: This home is set back, plenty of beach in front and only small dunes between you and the beach. Please note, the map illustration can make it appear there are lots in front of Summer Wind. If you use a satellite view you will see this is not the case. This is a front row, ocean front home!

Myself and my family had an amazing stay over Christmas. The house and location were perfect, and easily fit 5 adults, a 13 year old and 2 small dogs. It will be a Christmas I’ll always cherish and a big part of that was our lovely stay. I can’t recommend this place enough.

This is a simple beach house that has all the comforts you need to enjoy the beach, plus the best view. There is a lot of outdoor seating and even covered decking for fun when it is raining. The only thing missing is beach towels so bring your own.

I love that this house is right on the beach.The multiple decks were nice to sit on and listen to the waves, relax, or eat a meal. There are many beach toys in the shed and the outdoor shower was nice to use after being at the beach. I would stay here again.

Just what we needed. Right on a beautiful beach, comfortable, easy access to Galveston without being in the noise and busyness of Galveston. Great interactions with the manager. Would definitely stay there again.

I started renting this house in 2020. Lots of work refurbishing. I love this house. Never stayed in August before. The ac keeps the house nice and cool. In fact it got too cold for me ☺️. I’ll be back in a couple of months.

There is not a bad view to be found on this property. The multiple decks provide a lot of space to hang out, eat, or watch the sunrise. The house has great air conditioning, which cannot be said for some of our stays in Galveston, and it was really hot when we visited in August. Do not pack any beach toys because there is a shed full! It was just steps to the beach and fun,

This was our second time to stay at this location. The house sits right on the beach and has lots of windows for viewing the gorgeous sunrise over the ocean views. There were many upgrades completed since our last stay and that just made it even better. We plan to make this our yearly family vacation home hopefully for years to come. Oh and its only 5 miles from Galveston and several good restaurants!
We highly recommend this property and its owners.

The best feature of this beach house is the location on the beach. We also love the covered decks below the house. We stayed in 2021 and have enjoyed the updated deck, floors and new paint.

The house was amazing with great access to the beach! The beach wasn't overcrowded like others. The deck at the house provided a great place to get out of the sun but still enjoy the ocean breeze!

The beach house was terrific. The location cannot be beat. We had enough rooms and beds for all teens and adults to be comfortable. We all enjoyed the balconies and deck areas. The hammock was enjoyed by all. One day I wasn’t feeling especially well so I stayed at the house but I could watch my family and enjoy the day from the house. The house was easy to find, had good amenities, and nicely stocked. We have no complaints and would stay here again.

This was our second time staying at the beach house. We love the deck under the house. It's the perfect place to sit in the shade and enjoy the breeze and watch the waves. It's far enough from the busy city life so that the beaches aren't crowded but also close enough to run to the store or grab some dinner. We will definitely stay again.

Right on the beach. Deck views and seating from three sides. Full fenced-in deck underneath house which was perfect for keeping small children and dogs corralled. House was comfortable and adequate for our needs, six adults and 2 children. Children loved the toys on-site and mom appreciated the baby-gate. Grill is old but works great. Had a wonderful time.

Beautiful place with a lovely view of the beach and ocean from the huge living area windows! This house has everything you need for a great stay - plenty of plates, bowls, glasses, silverware and a full size Mr. Coffee along with a keurig. Dishwasher, pots and pans, an ice maker are just some of the few other great things to recommend it. Bedrooms are small but who wants to stay in the bedroom while at the beach???? Bedding is clean and comfortable and there are 2&1/2 baths to help with larger groups. You can’t beat the deck space with plenty of chairs.
For people with mobility issues, I can advise that there are 2 sets of stairs to get to the house. The bathrooms are up another level from the living room as are the bedrooms.
The 2 things also to keep in mind: the grill is old and the rooms do not get completely dark at night. Perhaps more blackout curtains would help. I used my eye mask.
Be careful if it rains hard because 2 of the parking spots are in a low level and the water got up a couple inches - enough to go over the tops of sneakers, for sure.
Overall one of the best vrbo’s we have stayed in!

Location couldn’t have been any better. We had a blast.
Just a bit out of town, which we liked.
Loved all the decks and the outdoor shower.
Bathrooms are small but that’s really no big deal for a week of vacation.
