Our Rock Lobster beach house is the perfect beach front family or fishing getaway on the Texas gulf coast. Enjoy the slower rhythms of Bolivar Peninsula while still being close to Crystal Beach. You are able to access all that Galveston has to offer with a quick trip on the ferry. Sunrise and sunset are tough to beat from the front porch with a coffee or a cocktail staring out at the unobstructed views of the ocean. Go explore the island too - rent some golf carts for beach rides, play putt putt golf, or hit up a water park. The fishing is great here too, whether you want to fish off the beach or charter a guide in the bay. We are also home to fantastic live music on the island - from a laid-back acoustic show to a full blown band rocking the house! Why go anywhere else Come see us, relax, and stay a while!

    Three of us stay at a Texas beach twice a year. This was one of our top picks and will be staying here again. Everything about this place is perfect for off season. The kitchen is better equipped (including spices) than any other we've ever stayed at. It was so so so clean and comfortable. We watched dolphins in the morning and had fires in the pit at night. All new appliances. Comfortable living room and dining area, very spacious. More seashells than I've ever seen on any beach in Texas. The shaded porch was huge and well equipped with new, sturdy tall high-backed chairs and adirondacks that made gazing at the beach easy. There was a small back porch better for star gazing but no chairs. Our biggest plus was being right on the beach and the privacy of our own house. It's off season February, so may be a busier beach in the summer, but the solitude was amazing. The sunset colors could be seen from the front porch, but the sunrise is worth getting up for!

    We had a wonderful time, it was very peaceful in December. Some days were very foggy and others were clear. The house is very comfortable and loved that it was right on the beach. Would be happy to return!

    We absolutely loved our stay at this property! It was perfect in every way — super dog-friendly, just a short walk to the beach, and thoughtfully stocked with beach toys, chairs, and everything you’d need for a fun day in the sun. The home was clean, bright, and full of natural light. One of our favorite highlights was watching the fireworks — it felt like we had front-row seats! It truly made our trip memorable. We’d come back in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!

    Such a peaceful location. Very little activity on our part of the beach and lots of shells and sea glass to examine. The house was pristine and the owners were great to work with.

    Host were great throughout the process. They communicated well when we had questions, and they let us know in advance when housekeeping would be done so that we could begin our stay. The property itself was clean and in good repair. It's located directly on the beach. It was easy for us to go back and forth as needed. Wonderful experience all around!
