Amor Del Mar

Overall Amor Del Mar is an amazing beach house! The location cannot be beat! The home is starting to show signs of a harsh beach environment though. The subfloor seems to be sinking, and there are ‘soft’ spots in the flooring that literally give when you walk over them. Some doors also won’t open & close effectively due to the floor settling issue. The half bath really needs ventilation, it is stifling and difficult to use with no air circulation. Generally, this house is beautiful and you can tell great care has been taken to keep it updated. Master bedroom and bath are spectacular. And again, location! Cannot be beat! The addition of a full outdoor shower would make this home glorious! We loved our stay and would stay here again. House just needs a little TLC repair wise!

Great property. Good amenities and a great view of the gulf. Just steps from the beach.

Excellent location and close access to the beach. Highly recommend for families.

Beautiful house right on the beach. House has everything you could possibly need. Loved spending the week with family there. Will definitely rent again??

The layout was great for the extended family. Room enough for everyone. After we checked out, my adult son said he might have lost his wallet. I called the office and they said they be on the lookout They called me later that afternoon to tell me they had the wallet an a couple of other items. Great crew, great service. The one negative is the floors in the kitchen area - there are a couple spots that need to be looked at from below as they give when you walk on them. I'd imagine thee ate a couple of joists down there that need to be sistered up..

Loved this beach house! I would recommend this one!

One of the nest beach views in Galveston. The upgrades are awesome. The house is 100% comfortable and convenient. Thank you to the home owners for making the property dog friendly. The amazing deck with the doggy gate was the perfect place for us to spend time together.

Great location. Very short walk to the beach, great view of the beach, and convenient to downtown.

- JEROME R , Posted: 04/10/2019

Roomy, with a glorious view. Easy beach access Great master suite

- Dottie P , Posted: 03/17/2019

This is a great location. Near Galveston & literally steps from the surf. Spacious living area with great windows for ocean view. Also a very nice large deck. It is an older property so not as spiffy as some of the newer homes, nonetheless, it is a comfortable stay.

Mrs
The house location is great close to the beach .The place is worn out and needs dredging up .The kitchen is very poorly equipped and has not had a thorough cleaning in a long time . Kitchen equipment and dishes are incomplete and need further attention. The grass was too tall for most of the duration of our stay . The office staff are very good and helpful .

- Maria U from Houston / grand Junction Co, Posted: 10/06/2018

Please don't ever hesitate to call us during your stay if there is anything you need! We keep extra kitchen items in our office (pots, pans, utensils, etc.) and are always happy to replace any missing or worn out items.

Excellent location directly on the beach. No public access to beach. Great shaded terrace. Bank of windows in living and dining areas offers panoramic views of the Gulf. Comfortable furniture which is new since our prior visit.

- William M , Posted: 08/12/2018

Great view of the gulf and easy access to the beach

- Tom D , Posted: 05/30/2018

This is a great home for the dogs. Having a gate at the top of the stairs to the patio made it perfect to let the dogs roam on the patio. Access to the beach was very convinent.

- Jerome R , Posted: 04/27/2018

Sand N Sea and Amor Del Mar provided us with a fabulous vacation. The house is very nice with good sized rooms. The deck is huge and had enough shade at all times for people who sunburn easily. We ate every meal on the outside table. Our sincerest thanks to the homeowners who allow pets. We would never rent any place that didn't let us bring our little Yorkies, who absolutely love the beach! We will definitely rent this house again!

- James G , Posted: 04/22/2018

Sand N Sea staff are great to work with and very helpful. They checked with us shortly after check-in to make sure everything was OK. Amor Del Mar is an excellent property. Kitchen was well-equipped--there was nothing we wanted that we didn't find. The beachfront deck was spacious and the chairs very comfortable. We did wish there was a shady spot on the deck when it was too sunny. We found the outdoor lower level dark at night and could not find a switch to turn on lights down there so we used our phone flashlights. Didn't think to call about it during the day. Note that the stairs were very well-lit (found the switch for that). We would stay there again!

- Diane W , Posted: 04/06/2018

This was our 5th year at Amor. Our family of 7 enjoy this house every year. The house meets all of our needs. It's become a tradition. We weren't ready to leave this year and the grandkids just wanted to go get their puppies and come back. I told them we would on 365 days because we booked it for next year.

- Karen M , Posted: 07/18/2017

We needed sleeping accommodations for an adult in the living area. There is a nice futon in there, but it wouldn't fold out. When we looked closer, the owner has screwed the frame so that it can't fold out. Our guest wasn't very comfortable on the futon that can't open. The kitchen is not very well equipped. Many of the cabinets are locked, and what's left for guests is minimal. There are NO condiments available in this house. All beds are very comfortable. The upstairs sliding door doesn't lock, but there is a dowel to keep the door secure. The patio is partially covered and is large and we spent most of our time outside. Very nice. Some exposed nail heads in the porch. Nice area in the garage area with a bathroom and shower. Nice walkover to the beach - a bridge so you don't have to walk through the dunes.

- Susie E , Posted: 05/08/2017

Hello Susie! Thank you for your comments. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay at Amor del Mar.  We are sorry to hear that you were missing anything by way of kitchen equipment - next time don't hesitate to call us during your stay so we can get you what you need!

40th Girl's Weekend
Five senior women stayed this weekend Amor Del Mar for an annual reunion. Home is quite spacious for this many. Furniture a bit worn but very comfortable. King and Queen beds great - bunk needs more support for adult use - would be fine for child. Really only has 2 baths. Kitchen well appointed. View of the surf and closeness of the beach for walks was as Fabulous as Galveston Bay can get. Proximity to City for shopping and dinner out was superior. Great home for our get together, and great suggestions from SnS personnel.

- Anonymous , Posted: 11/13/2016

We are glad you enjoyed your stay!  There are 2 full baths and one half bath at this vacation home.  We look forward to seeing you all again next year!

- Sand 'N Sea Properties, Posted: 12/27/2016

Quiet beach front home perfect for family and friends to gather on the deck. The partially covered deck is large enough for entertaining, enjoying meals, or just coffee and sunrise. We enjoyed the rocking chairs, the shady table for 6, and the spectacular view everyday during our stay. The large kitchen and layout of Amor Del Mar is perfect for family fun or couples. The comfy beds were the icing on the cake! This house is convenient to shopping, restaurants, and all the tourist attractions but just far enough from the seawall to enjoy the peace and quiet. It must also be said, the friendly staff at Sand N Sea are amazing! They are helpful with reservations, attentive to detail, and make you feel like family. They make the rental process stress free and pleasant time after time.

- The Murray Family from Cypress, TX, Posted: 10/18/2016

We have rented this house for several years now. It never fails us. We book again for the next year when we leave. Thanks to the owners and to Sand N Sea for making this such an enjoyable place to bring our family of 7 (2 sons, daughter in law, 2 grandchildren, husband and myself). See you next year if not before!!

- Karen, John, John, Chris, Jamie, Dylan and Presley M from Garland, Texas., Posted: 07/19/2016

Great house with beautiful views of the ocean and easy access to the beach. The morning and evening sittings on the deck with the sea breeze are unforgettable !

- Leo & Jennifer H from San Antonio, Texas, Posted: 07/13/2016

This is a great "family friendly" property. Lots of room to spread out and enjoy! We really LOVE the deck area! Beautiful spot to watch sunsets and sunrises! Our 3rd visit! We are already planning for next year!

- Anonymous P , Posted: 06/28/2016

Great location. Full view of beach with no obstruction. Comfortable beds. Perfect outdoor space.

- Anonymous from Galveston, Posted: 03/07/2016

EVERYONE absolutely loved the house! All I heard the entire time we were at the property was, "This place is perfect." It was extremely clean. We loved the big deck and the nice deck furniture. It was the best family get together we have ever had. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone and would love to come back myself! We brought beach toys for the kids but it was nice to have all the extra toys, etc. at the house when we got there.

- Reta N from Dallas, TX, Posted: 08/18/2015

We've never rented a property we were disappointed with. We have been using Sand N Sea for over thirty years. Already reserved for next year.

- Anonymous T from Garland,Texas., Posted: 07/23/2015

This is a great place for kids and the outside deck is fabulous! Plenty of seating both inside and out! The kitchen is large enough for several cooks and allows for visiting! The arrangement of the bedrooms and bathrooms allows for privacy!

- Anonymous T from Seabrook, Texas, Posted: 06/30/2015

Say folks if you want the closest place to the water, this is it! I have been to Galveston for 55 years, an have checked. I come back to this house every time.

- John T from Houston Texas, Posted: 03/31/2015

Great house for a family vacation.

- Anonymous A , Posted: 07/22/2014

This is a GREAT property for a family group! We had a fabulous time! The deck area was much larger than we anticipated. Everyone was able to sit and visit in the evenings and have a GREAT view of the water! The house was well equipped...particularly the kitchen! Although we didn't cook a lot we did breakfast (eggs, pancakes and bacon) each morning and a low country boil (shrimp, corn and potatoes) twice! Plenty of cabinet and prep space! It was a "happy place" for a great time with family and friends! We will be back!

- Anonymous P from Texas, California, Arkansas, Posted: 07/15/2014

The house had lots of room. The large kitchen was great for a large group. The porch was huge and the family enjoyed it. Easy walk to beach.

- Anonymous M from Friendswood, Texas, Posted: 06/17/2014

This is a BEAUTIFUL beach house we really enjoy our stay,very roomy and clean LOVE the upper room, we've decided this is the best oceanfront house in Bermuda beach!! the management is wonderful also the staff is very nice and helpful, will stay here again!!!!

- Anonymous H , Posted: 12/10/2013

This place was great, conveinant, large, on the beach, and private. I really wish to buy something like that. I would consider moving to the beautiful area.

- John T from Houston, Posted: 10/02/2013

WE ALL LOVED IT! GREAT COVERED DECK, DECK FURNITURE GREAT! VIEW OF BEACH FANTASTIC. RENTED fAMILY TIDES NEXT DOOR TOO. PERFECT PAIRING (AGENTS SUGGESTION)

- Anonymous F , Posted: 09/08/2013

We returned to Amor Del Mar because of the experience we had with this property in 2012. We were not disappointed. We had another wonderful experience, were happy with everything the beach house provided, and the rocking chairs were icing on the cake.

- Anonymous W from Cedar Hill, TX, Posted: 08/07/2013

Perfect location close to the beach on a dead end road. Provided plenty of space for four adults and a child. The property was accurately represented on the website. We already reserved for July, 2014.

- Anonymous W from Midland, Texas, Posted: 07/30/2013

I do t want to share because then too many people would like this house!!! Wonderful house for families. We had our two sons, daughter in law and two grand babies with us. So many good memories were made. This is our fourth year with Dylan (soon to be 6) and he loves every minute we are there. We started breaking our new six month old granddaughter this year. She will be a little beach bum too:)))

- Anonymous M from Garland, Texas., Posted: 07/23/2013

We came for a family vacation- our grown kids and grandkids. We had a wonderful time. The house is well taken care of, the kitchen is well stocked with all of the pots, pans, and other amenities needed as we cooked most nights. The location to the beach is great. Our kids could run back and forth between the house and the beach with ease. (Our youngest was 3)The house has a great porch that overlooks the ocean and has shade on parts of it most all day. We also enjoyed the rocking chairs out on the porch. Overall we had a wonderful vacation and have already reserved it again for next year.

- Anonymous M from Mesquite, TX, Posted: 06/25/2013

Great location. I would do it all again.

- Anton R from Plano, Tx, Posted: 05/22/2013

We had a great time. Kitchen was well stocked, only need to bring specialty items for preparing meals. We left a cookie sheet and muffin tins for future guests.

- Michelle N from Edinburg, TX, Posted: 12/28/2012

This house was wonderful and the views were amazing. We had never rented a house in Galveston and we really enjoyed our time there with our family. We were literally steps from the beach. We could not have ask for a better "mini" vacation!!!

- Anonymous T from Friendswood, Texas, Posted: 09/10/2012

We loved the large deck. There was always some portion of it in the shade all day long. The proximity to the beach was great.

- Anonymous S from Houston, TX, Posted: 08/08/2012

We enjoyed our week at Amor Del Mar very much and are already discussing when we can return to this same property next summer. It was everything that we had hoped it would be from looking at the pictures on the website. Everything in the house was modern, clean and in working order. The best part was walking out the door and only having the beach a few yards away. We felt like we had our own private beach with only an occasional walker or runner passing through our space. When we saw how crowded the public beaches were, especially on the weekend, we were so thankful to have our own quiet space to relax.

- Anonymous W from Cedar Hill, TX, Posted: 07/25/2012

We had a GREAT time. We were a little disappointed by the lack of rocking chairs on the deck...as pictured on the website. The rocking chairs were the feature that really sold me on this rental. But overall, we really enjoyed our stay.

- Anonymous T from Houston, TX, Posted: 06/12/2012

Hello Bentley-Hibbert Family! Unfortunately, the very things that make island living so enjoyable - the sun, water and salt air - are very hard on outdoor furniture. As a result, pieces are often updated by the homeowner throughout the year, and sometimes exact replacements aren't made. Our rental agents are always happy to answer any questions about house amenities - just give our office a call when you are ready to make your next reservation!

- Sand 'N Sea Properties, Posted: 07/05/2017

Fantastic house!

- Anonymous from Montgomery, Texas, Posted: 04/17/2012

Great beach house! Nice layout, beautiful views, easy to live in!

- Anonymous G from Norman, Oklahoma, Posted: 03/25/2012

We loved Amor del Mar and hope to be back year after year!

- Anonymous d from ut, Posted: 10/02/2011

Great property close to the beach. We loved the view and ocean breezes, especially on the 3rd floor deck!

- Anonymous T from Austin, TX, Posted: 08/16/2011

Just came home from this property, it was great! The house was roomy and very well maintained, location was perfect. We would love to come back to this home.

- Anonymous A from Houston, TX, Posted: 08/02/2011

We rented Amor Del Mar for one week. It was a very plesant, clean, and well thought house for amenities. It is centrally located , so our drive to Galveston or Jamacia Beach for sights or neccessities was very short. Overall, we had an excellent vacation and plan on staying in the house again!

- Anonymous M from Missouri City, Texas, Posted: 06/28/2011

We had 7 in our group - this property had more than enough sleeping space as well as having 3 bathrooms was a HUGE plus. The view and front row location is magnificent. The kitchen is roomy and had plenty of cookware for us to use. This will be our summer rental next year for sure!!

- Anonymous H from Euless, Texas, Posted: 06/14/2011

Very nice and comfy. Just perfect for smaller group. We had total of 5 adults and 1 baby so we had plenty of room. And we loved the huge covered deck w/rocking chairs! Spent much time rocking & enjoying the view! Very relaxing place and super convenient to town. Loved being right on beach! Will definitely utilize this place again!
