Family-friendly holiday rentals in Pirates Beach

Beautiful condo with the most perfect view! It was a wonderful place to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We will definitely be back!

Great place for two families with toddlers to spend a long weekend! The view from the balcony was great, and the pool and the lazy river were a ton of fun. The room itself was good for a long weekend, but it might have felt a little cramped if the stay was much longer than that. Overall, we really enjoyed this place and will definitely consider it for our next trip to Galveston!

We enjoyed our stay. House was as described & was stocked well. Our only disappointment was in the containers/tops lacking in kitchen. Sleeping was perfect for our crew. We loved the lower level & outside seating— great outside access for our large group. We did wish there could have been some flexibility on check-in without fee but we understood. Kitchen was stocked well and house was decorated nicely. We did however find the temperatures of house to be very hot upon arrival and it took a while to cool off. Fridge was broken when we arrived(caught next day), it did throw a wrench in things for us (some food was unsafe to consume) but the matter was handled quickly & we appreciated the speedy fix and accommodations in the meantime. Very responsive host who remediated the situation and was apologetic throughout. Couldn’t have been handled any better. Easy to get to beach & instructions for house, beach accesss & everything else. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a RESET.

Mary’s Seascape Condo was excellent for our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 older children). Queen bed & pillows were comfy, kids loved the jumbo built-in bunk beds. Mary was very responsive to questions & even accommodated an early check-in for us. Location is great— out of the way of much of the Seawall traffic. The private beach access is a total selling point, but the entire place is amazing. We loved our stay & definitely plan to book again.

We stayed here for our 5th anniversary and loved it so much we came back for our 6th!

Great Condo!!! Great location… ocean across the street. 3 pools and a hot tub- all areas well maintained. The condo was so cute and very comfortable- well stocked with necessities and more.

We really enjoyed our stay at this condo. It was our first family vacation with our toddler. Everything went smoothly and we were able to create great memories. Gary & Anna were very responsive and helpful!

loved our stay. the house easily accommodated 3 generations with different interests. the bedrooms were a good size and the open living/dining area made it easy to gather. the hot tub was a huge hit with everyone and the outdoor shower made it easy to get the sand off. Great house!

Tom was an amazing host. He met us right at the front door, was very knowledgeable and thorough. The house was equally amazing. Highly recommend staying here. We had a fabulous time!

Wow! What an incredible place and an incredible host. We've stayed at over 30 Airbnbs and this is the only host that has gone this above and beyond - stocking the kitchen in anticipation of our Thanksgiving feast, a doggie basket with toys for our pups, a gorgeous pecan dessert and yummy pasta/sauce on the kitchen table, a zoom call to welcome us and to find out what else we needed (she ordered us more kitchen utensils & a fan from Target). The home feels like a home. Super clean, lots of character - high ceilings, lovely woodwork, lots of light, a sweet fully fenced in yard, and large comfy bedrooms. There are two bathrooms but everyone ends up using 1 upstairs as their main bathroom since it's the one with a shower - not an issue for us just FYI. The neighborhood is super walkable - so many gorgeous homes on every block. Easy to get to the Strand, beach and Broadway. Two thumbs way up for people with or without dogs! Simply amazing. Thanks Ana!

Gloria’s place was absolutely wonderful. Highly recomend. Exactly as described. She responded quickly. Everything was great. The beds were all comfortable. The showers were great. TVs worked great. We cooked a lot and found the kitchen more than adequate. Plenty of dishes and flatware. We had our son and 4 grandkids plus our granddaughter’s friend. There was plenty of space for all 8 of us. We were close to the beach and close to all the attractions in Galveston. The out door hose allowed us to rinse off and keep most of the sand outside. Loved having the washer and dryer too! Would definitely come again. Book it before it’s gone!! Great price!!

Our stay was great. Communication was very prompt and helpful. The house is nice with everything you could ask for, plates, cups, coffee, cookware.

Our party of six adults and two little dogs loved this place. It’s very functional for adults. We were able to dock our boat and had access to the boat slip at the house. This wasn’t the house I booked for this trip but the house I had reserved flooded from a recent storm and Airbnb helped us find this place on the spot. Robert responded quickly and was able to accommodate our party last minute. He communicated with me quickly and was able to answer any questions we had. My group wants to rent this place next year for our gathering. House is planned out as if the owner uses it regularly. A/c is awesome, toilet, refrigerator downstairs is handy. Outside shower was used regularly by our group that stayed downstairs. The drawback for some might be only one full bath and a half up stairs .It did not bother our group at all. The neighborhood has a nice pool that you can purchase a pass for the week and there is gulf cart rentals near. We recommend Rick’s. Definitely will rent again.

We stayed at the cutest little house/bungalow owned by Paul . It was very comfortable and close to everything! Paul kept in contact with us and we will stay at the house again ! Also we love the neighbors little kitty cat named Marvin which BTW is a girl lol Her tag says so 🩷 She came and visited us every day !

My family and I had a wonderful time staying at Edgar’s home! The location was perfect—just a quick 4-minute walk to the beach, which made it so easy for us to go back and forth throughout the day. The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. We especially loved the beautiful backyard—it was the perfect spot to relax and enjoy some family time. Edgar was a great host, and we’d definitely love to stay here again. Highly recommend!

This was a great place to stay with our dogs! We reunited with family by spending days on the beach and spent meals and evenings on the porch. The directions to the beach were clear and the walk is quick and fairly easy. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone!

Clean and affordable condo right across the street from the beach. Within walking distance to many restaurants and attractions.

Very nicely designed place, good instructions and a great location

We've stayed at several Air B n B's in Galveston and this was a great find. Great hostess, good check in, super clean place. Nice amenities- led fridge, dishwasher, great parking, comfy bed. Nice view on the balcony of the gulf and pool. Quiet, gated property. Would stay again.

This place was perfect for a weekend getaway. Check in was easy and the view from the balcony was incredible.

We had a great stay. The home was clean & comfortable. The amenities were great as well! We had a small issue with the condo but the host responded within the hour and it was a simple fix. Plan to stay again at our next trip to Galveston

Had a great time! Very accommodating compared to other condos we booked in the past. Plenty of towels, paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags. Even had a pantry with a couple seasonings. The cable was out. However, when I informed the host they had an immediate response and tried to help diagnose. We had access to Tv apps so all was good! The hosts were absolutely fabulous- they let us check in early and were super responsive any time we had a question. I would definitely book this room again!

Scott is quick to communicate, which is awesome. We immediately fell in love with the resort the minute we walked into our room and saw how amazing and spacious it is! We were on the 5th floor, towards the end, so close to the beach. At night I could hear the waves crashing on my right & the infinity pool crashing on my left - I slept amazingly! I loved that we could walk downstairs and right onto the beach, everything was so amazing, I wanted to never leave. Another cool thing about this resort is that there are tons of games and things to do. Movies are available for rent, and there is a little marketplace you can grab snacks, wine, even ice cream! The room had everything we needed. I was hoping there would be some beach chairs to check out, but there weren't any. We bought a cheap $10 boogy board from WalMart and ended up taking it home (Southwest let us take it as a carry on!). I did see they had buckets & sand toys available to check out and that is awesome. The pool and the hot tub were amazing. One of the best little getaways I've had in the last couple years!

Excellent stay-we rent a beach house for our five sons and families every summer-this was the best. Very responsive, attentive host. Very accommodating. Complete kitchen with large pots and skillets for a large group-especially appreciated the griddle and crock pot. Plenty of silverware, dishes, and cups for a large group. Plenty of towels-not just bath, but also beach towels! Great location-just walk across the street to the beach. Loved the beach toys for the kids and even a rake for the seaweed. Three bathrooms AND an outdoor shower! Two downstairs bedrooms were great for one son with a disability and one couple needing quiet from the baby. Lots of games to play and even books to read. Parking was amazing- driveway makes it so no one was boxed in. We really recommend Lucky's Lookout.
