Surf Song

Excellent property with many amenities. All the furniture both in and out were comfortable and fit our needs perfectly. All the appliances worked well, especially the ice maker that kept up with a large crowd. The configuration of the bedrooms and baths worked very well. The view of the ocean is fantastic. One possible problem in the future may be the direct access to the ocean. The path was very narrow and overgrown. It worked fine this year but with summer growth may it may not be usable which would require walking to the public access. What makes this property extra special is the direct access through the dunes. With that problem addressed we would definitely be back.

We are from Washington state and met our out of town family here. It is very easy to find, and the beach at this property is out of this world. Very nice size for a large group. The bedrooms had a lot of room in them. The bathrooms were huge with big walk in showers. The deck outside is nice it needs to be updated or sanded but it was very comfortable. The walk to the beach could be a lot closer if you could walk over the dunes but they have snakes around the property and we had to walk down the street to the public beach access. Otherwise we loved our time in Galveston.

Beautiful house. Well equipped. Great view. At least partly shaded deck after about 11:00 AM. Beach access will become a challenge with next door construction (obstructs current pathway). There was a slight ant problem and we did bring some of our own cooking pots/utensils which did come in handy.

It’s a wonderful house! Very comfortable & clean! Lots of room to spread out! The sectional was so comfy. The kitchen had all the necessities. Loved the outdoor shower. We will definitely rent it again!

- Lisa L , Posted: 06/14/2020

Loved its decks & beachfront! Also loved the high windows & all the lighting coming thru! Very airy & light!

- Lisa L , Posted: 06/14/2020

Could not have been nicer.

- Jamie S , Posted: 06/08/2020

We had a wonderful girls weekend here. We had room to spread out and loved having the nearby beach access. Especially enjoyed watching the sun rise over the water each morning.

Surf Song was a wonderful rental. It was just as beautiful and comfortable as the description advertised. Our family had a great time. We are planning on coming again.

- Bridget B , Posted: 07/20/2019

I always rent with Sand N sea. This house was very comfortable for 8 people.

- Kerri G , Posted: 04/11/2019

Wonderful house! Comfortable and well equipped. Beautifully decorated!

- Tracy L , Posted: 10/31/2018

I easily booked a beach house through y’all last year. The house was great and y’all were helpful if needed. So I went with y’all again this year!

- Cody M , Posted: 08/27/2018

This is a great floor plan for sharing with families or big groups. The beach access is fantastic. Two small complaints: the upstairs bedrooms have to be closed for the downstairs to keep cool and they never quite cool down at night (plus you have to keep doors open to get A/C). The coffee maker works ok, but is pretty old. Beds are comfortable and there are plenty of dishes and pots and pans for cooking.

- Jennifer G , Posted: 08/14/2018

Thanks for sharing your experience! As of 09/07/18 the 2 new AC units (03/2018) have been recalibrated, and a new coffee maker is on order. We hope to welcome you back to Surf Song again soon!

Great property with awesome beach access.

- Jeffrey B , Posted: 07/24/2018

The property was everything we were looking for and more!! House was stocked with everything we needed, beautifully decorated and the beach was so clean with minimal people or traffic. Loved the property, will definitely rent again!!

- Sandy M , Posted: 05/19/2018

This property was phenomenal! Could not have asked for more. The only minor issue we had was that, because the kitchen is so wonderfully packed with everything you could possibly need, there was nowhere to store food. We stayed for 9 nights, so we had purchased some groceries that kind of just had to be stacked on the counter and made the kitchen kinda weird...but, trust me, this was NOTHING compared to how great the place is. Strongly recommend.

- Gregg D , Posted: 04/09/2018

We are glad you enjoyed your stay! UPDATE 06/2018 a set of shelving has been added to make it easier to store your groceries during your next visit! Thank you for your great feedback!

- Sand 'N Sea Properties, Posted: 06/05/2018

Surf Song is a really nice house with an excellent location on the beach. Beds are comfy and kitchen is well stocked. Dining area has plenty of seating. Electric shutters are VERY helpful for sleeping children. We definitely hope to return.

- Molli E , Posted: 03/18/2018

We loved Surf Song! The house has plenty of room and a well stocked kitchen. The laundry room has plenty of space for storing food. The only negative - all of the beds are very, very firm. If you have back trouble and need a softer bed, you might want to look at other houses.

- TAMMIE A , Posted: 08/20/2017

09/20/17 - We are happy to announce that gel foam mattress toppers have been added to all beds!

- Sand 'N Sea Properties, Posted: 09/20/2017

Great place to stay!

- Vickie C , Posted: 06/25/2017

Enjoy!

- Suzanne F , Posted: 05/22/2017

This house was a great place for a family vacation! We were absolutely thrilled with the location (right on the beach) and there is no traffic going up and down the beach. The house is close enough to the Sea Wall if you want to enjoy the restaurants and entertainment. The house was in great condition and we really, really enjoyed out stay. We will definitely be renting this house again!

- Anonymous K from Katy, TX, Posted: 08/06/2016

This house was very well equipped with nice things. It was comfortable, comodiious. Had a wonderful view of the gulf.

- Billy C from Houston, texas, Posted: 07/16/2016

This is a nice house, kitchen is small but well stocked. There is no pantry but adequate space in laundry room We have rented this house twice and will do so again.

- Anonymous from Austin TX, Posted: 07/04/2016

We absolutely loved Surf Song. It accommodated our large family extremely well. I do wish however, that we could have brought along our 2 fur babies all would have been perfect. We have used Sand N Sea several times and always appreciate the great customer service we receive. We will definitely be back and hopefully it will be at Surf Song Summer 2017.

- Anonymous M , Posted: 06/25/2016

Hello Mowdy Family! We are glad you all enjoyed your visit! While Surf Song is not a pet friendly home, we do have a great selection of homes that are happy to welcome up to 2 small dogs, and you can see them all at http://tinyurl.com/snspetfriendly. We look forward to welcoming you back to Surf Song next summer!

- Sand 'N Sea Properties, Posted: 07/06/2017

Our family enjoyed the house and the beach and loved that it was down the island away from crowds.

- Anonymous B from Jacksonville Tx, Posted: 09/07/2015

Nice house and set up well. Needs better mattress on beds as they are very firm.

- Anonymous F from Longview, Texas, Posted: 08/01/2015

09/20/17 - We are happy to announce that gel foam mattress toppers have been added to all beds!

- Sand 'N Sea Properties, Posted: 09/20/2017

Only 2.5 baths. The half bath is upstairs, in a bedroom and is very small. No pantry in the kitchen. Deck table and benches in poor condition.

- Anonymous U from Austin TX, Posted: 07/07/2015

The pantry off the kitchen also houses the washer & dryer.  UPDATE 2016 - New outdoor furniture has been added!

- Sand 'N Sea Properties, Posted: 09/20/2017

This rental had plenty of room for a large group. The bedrooms are very roomy and there are plenty of bathrooms. I loved the kitchen!

- Anonymous C from Pointblank, Texas, Posted: 05/26/2015

The location of Surf Song was excellent, right on the beach. It was very nicely maintained and the layout was perfect for our purposes. The living room/dining area/porch arrangement was ideal.

- Anonymous H from Houston, TX, Posted: 08/25/2014

Spacious house will updated amenities for comfortable living on the beach!

- Barb D from Houston, Tx, Posted: 08/16/2014

Property is convenient to the beach. Has access to a community pool. Was great for family and kids.

- Anonymous H from Austin, TX, Posted: 06/21/2014

We loved Surf Song. Great Location, and Layout. Fit everyone comfortably. Huge Kitchen table for everyone. Wonderful deck. Thank you. Miss it already.

- Anonymous T from Frisco, TX, Posted: 05/28/2014

Beautiful home, just a few steps from the beach and the kitchen is so wonderfully stocked for large family meals.

- Anonymous K , Posted: 05/02/2014

Sand N Sea are very professional and friendly. Would recommend them to anyone. Surf Song is a beautiful home in a great location. Was there for Fourth of July and even though the beaches got busy, the beach in front of the house was always just ours. Was not ready to come back to reality.

- Anonymous K from Lumberton, TX, Posted: 07/06/2013

Thanks so much..surf song was wonderful it is roomy and clean. We hope to be able to stay there again.

- Anonymous b from denver, co, Posted: 06/22/2013

Very nice home. It's one that you would be proud to welcome guests into.

- Anonymous from austin, Posted: 02/26/2013

I have rented several properties from S&S, and this has been the best equipped and user friendly house to accommodate our group of 12. The yard is not kept mowed, but living that close to the beach we understand because of erosion. There was an abundance of sun flowers in bloom and were a beautiful contrast with the beach.

- Anonymous W from TX, Posted: 10/22/2012

UPDATE 2013 - Surf Song now has regularly scheduled lawn maintenance!

- Sand 'N Sea Properties, Posted: 09/20/2017

This was a phenomenal home to rent for the weekend - if only we could have stayed longer. Absolutely perfect for our family which included 6 children under 6! We loved the short walk to the beach and its privacy! Will definitely come back to this beach house!

- Anonymous from Jersey Village, Posted: 09/10/2012

The size of this house is good for a family with multiple ages - but some of the things need repair - commode in downstairs bathroom has been an issue in other years. Sand n Sea is quick to send a repair person

- Anonymous B from Palestine, Texas, Posted: 06/23/2012

Hello Barnard family! We work very hard to keep all of our homes in great condition but, as you know, sometimes maintenance issues do arise. We are always happy to take care of them right away!

UPDATE 2015 - We are happy to share that the bathrooms have been updated, including new commodes.

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

Wonderful view but the house does not contain any condiments no toiletry.

- Jenny from Houston Tx, Posted: 11/14/2011

Fun was had by all eleven of us, we come to Galveston Lone Star Rally every year. This house is a little far from rally, but well worth it. The home has a great fishing right in front of it which made for good dinners. Large screen TV for watching the football games in a open living area. Fun beach decor and dishes. We will book from Sand & Sea again!

- Anonymous G from Baton Rouge, Dallas & Fayetteville Arkansas., Posted: 11/08/2011

Great place for a girlfriend or family get away! Plenty of room inside and out. The sunrises, sunsets and star gazing from the deck were great.

- Anonymous G from Austin, Houston, Phoenix, San Diego and Denver, Posted: 09/24/2011

We came to Sand N Sea's Surf Song to celebrate my mother's 70th birthday. My expectations were exceeded in every way. Very little beach traffic so it was like having your own private beach. Especially liked the private outdoor shower and well lit parking area (nobody messed with our gear overnight). Sand like powder and water teal blue. Perfect weather. Only comment is the guest bedroom on upper level gets a little warm at night. Suggest to improve circulation. Aside from this minor point, would highly recommend to others.

- Anonymous H from Houston, TX, Posted: 09/12/2011

This was a great house and worked very well for us. The bedroom and bathroom setup was nice for adults travelling together. We would definitely rent it again!

- Kim K from Houston, TX, Posted: 09/06/2011

This house exceeded my very high expectations. I have rented properties before, but none that provided such a well-stocked kitchen. They have EVERYTHING you need in the kitchen if you like to cook. The house decor is absolutely perfect too. They even had vinegar and baking soda on hand in case of Portuguese man-of-war stings (commonly mistaken as jelly fish). What a view! What a beach house! We will definitely try to stay here again and again. 5-star plus!

- Sheila C from Sugar Land, TX, Posted: 08/30/2011

We absolutely loved our stay at Surf Song!! The house was very comfortable, the beds were awesome, & the beach view breath taking!!

- Anonymous L from Corpus Christi, TX, Posted: 08/22/2011

Surf Song is even better than the website shows.Decor is lovely and inviting. Great quiet location on the beach. Super access to the beach.We had 8 adults and 4 children and were all comfortable.

- Anonymous C from Fort Worth, Texas, Posted: 07/16/2011

Surf Song was a great rental property. Very livable floor plan. Very well equipped with lots of cute, fun dishes and serving accessories to use. We had our 2 year old granddaughter and she had lots of space to play and 'chill'. Will definitely rent this property again.

Our favorite home away from home! Can't wait for our vacation this summer!
