About this house rental
This beachfront home delivers what matters most: location, privacy, and effortless beach living. Situated directly on the sand at the quiet end of Crystal Beach, the property offers sweeping Gulf views, a private fenced pool (heated for an additional fee), and easy access to what feels like a private stretch of shoreline.
The open-concept interior looks out over the Gulf and is designed for families and groups to gather comfortably. A fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and a spacious island makes meals easy and enjoyable, whether you’re cooking fresh seafood or gathering for sunset drinks.
Outdoor living shines here, with covered dining, lounge seating, a charcoal grill, and a cold-water outdoor shower for rinsing off after beach days. Parking is easy with space for up to five vehicles, and streaming-ready TVs keep evenings relaxed after full days in the sun.
This is a favorite for repeat guests seeking a peaceful beachfront escape with the rare combination of pool, views, and true walk-out beach access.
Please note, depending on the season, we do charge $25/night to heat the pool.

Everything was as described and very clean. There was everything you might need in the home. Extra toiletries, bug spray and sunscreen in the unit which are not typically found in rentals in my experience. The host was very quick to respond and helpful. The pool was amazing as well as views from the deck. The mosquitoes were HUGE and abundant so we were extremely grateful for the bug spray being there. There were dolphins every morning about 830 heading west! The beach is much less busy than Galveston. I would absolutely recommend this home to rent for families.

We had an absolutely incredible stay at Riviera Paradise Beach House in Gilchrist, Texas! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The home is beautifully maintained, spotless, and thoughtfully designed with comfort and relaxation in mind.The location is unbeatable—just steps from the beach with stunning ocean views that made every morning and evening feel special. We loved how peaceful and private it felt, making it the perfect getaway to unwind and recharge.Inside, the house had everything we needed and more. The kitchen was fully equipped, the beds were extremely comfortable, and every detail seemed carefully considered to make guests feel at home. The outdoor space was just as amazing—perfect for enjoying the sea breeze, listening to the waves, and spending quality time with family and friends. The pool was a plus, very enjoyable. The host, Ms. Molly was fantastic—friendly, responsive, and clearly dedicated to making sure guests have a great experience.We couldn’t have asked for a better beach vacation and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a perfect coastal escape!

We had a wonderful stay. The host helped answer all our questions before our stay and took great care of us. The house was very welcoming and had most everything we needed. We loved having the pool and the kids spent tons of time in there.
