Located directly on a private beach, Ariel is a custom-built, family-owned home in Terramar Beach in the lovely West End of Galveston. This house will give you and your family all that you need to get away from it all or to at least have a beautiful resting place after a day out on the sea wall and historic downtown Galveston. kitchen remodeled December 2024 with new cabinets and appliances. Directly decorated by the owners, your family and guests will enjoy tranquil themes and ocean views from both inside and outside the house. Covered deck on the 1st., with an unblocked view of the Beach and the Gulf of Mexico.

Sleeping up to 15, this house was made for family vacations and entertaining. It has two master bedrooms with king size beds in each of them, making it perfect for group vacations; 2 full bathrooms, a half bathroom completely detached for convenient use by guests in the living room kitchen area, and two private decks boasting of beach views. This is all on top of having views of the ocean from top to bottom of the house.

Since you'll be able to step directly onto the beach and set up your things, the house also has an outdoor shower to easily wash away the sand as you enter in and out of the house. The kitchen and main shared area has stainless steel appliances, granite counter tops and a total maritime atmosphere that will welcome you at the kitchen while watching the beach.

In the living room make wonderful memories both day and night. After a wonderful day in the sun, take a seat at the couch and enjoy your favorite movie with a 55 Flat Screen TV or enjoy a board game at our large, wooden kitchen table perfect for conversing and dining around.

Parking available for up to seven vehicles on a private driveway but of course you can park more in front on the private feeder road into the house.

If you ever want to leave the private beach for some sight seeing and tourist activities, you're around 20 minutes driving distance from Galveston's famous Pleasure Pier, Seawall, and Historic Strand. Our family personally loves The Spot for food and the Strand for beautiful sight seeing of antique shops, ice cream vendors, and candy shops! Post Office street also boasts a number of coffee shops and art galleries with works of art on sale. There is also a beautiful, boutique tea and coffee shop called Sugar Bean located only 20 minutes away driving.

    Even Better Than the Photos!Our family has been renting beach houses in Galveston since the 1990s, and this one might just be our all-time favorite! The home exceeded our expectations—it was beautifully updated, spacious, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed. With six adults, two teens, and two small kids, we had more than enough room to relax and enjoy ourselves.The location is unbeatable—right on the beach with no street to cross, just steps from the sand. The covered porch and direct beach access were absolute must-haves for us, and this property delivered on both. The beach was clean, the views were stunning, and the entire stay felt peaceful and private.The property manager was also fantastic—responsive, helpful, and truly committed to making our stay great.We’re already looking forward to booking our next trip. Highly recommend!

    We had a fantastic stay at this beach house! The location couldn’t be better—right on the beach with incredible views and easy access to the water. The house itself was beautiful, clean, and fully stocked with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The owners were also super friendly and made us feel very welcome. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!

    Great location and area with a semi private beach that you can walk directly onto from the house. Only visited with my family of 3 so was huge for us but we enjoyed it. The patio has great views and very relaxing. Owner/Prop Mgr is very good at communication. Highly recommend!

    This is the 2nd year we have stayed at the Ariel Beach House. It is perfect for our family. Beach is steps away. The manager, Pablo, is very accommodating and responded quickly to our questions.

    The house was absolutely perfect. I have been renting houses for the past 6 years and this house was excellent. If I could give it 10 stars I would Cant say enough good things about this house. My family had a wonderful time and will definitely be booking again for summer 2025. Location is perfect. So close to the beach. Pablo is great to deal with. Always answers quickly.

    First this property is on an AMAZING SPOT! Perfectly between two public access points so not a bunch of people come that far down to set up. Neighboring houses kind of stayed in front of their houses and there was plenty of space in between on the beach! And you walk right out on to the beach. It was amazing! Pablo communicated with us early, and everything was very clear. We didn't have any needs at all during the trip because everything was very clear! The house was great with room for our 8 adults on beds without anyone having to top bunk or futon it. We are not small adults either and I am 8 months pregnant! We did bring extra toilet paper, paper towels, and trash bags, but the rental agreement was very clear that they only provide a few of those in their place and if you need more it is on you. Knowing that in advanced it was really easy to just throw a few in with other supplies. No big deal at all! I think we only needed some trash bags and one more roll of paper towels, what they provided was almost enough by itself. We had an excellent stay and will be keeping this property on our list for future Galveston trips!

    We had a great time staying at this property with our young children and their grandparents. The house is clean and well maintained with plenty of room for our group. This stretch of beach is quiet and easy to access. We would definitely stay here again.
