Escape From The Storm

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Show the ones you love a unique trip to the Texas Gulf Coast with this lovely home near Crystal Beach. Between the nearby beaches and quiet atmosphere, you'll have everything you need for an unforgettable vacation.

This home lies three-and-a-half miles east of Crystal Beach, a low-key community with a great atmosphere and even better beaches. You don't need to venture very far for soft sands and warm waves, as there's plenty of both at the beach a few blocks south of the vacation rental. Need a change of scenery? Galveston's shopping and dining is 20 miles to the west.

Watch your dogs (welcome for a small nightly fee) play outside from the comfort of the porch or the patio, detailed with brand-new furniture. Inside, modern furnishings accompany a laid-back atmosphere. It's perfect for relaxing with some free WiFi or cable, DVDs, and Netflix on the flatscreen TV. If you muster the willpower to rise from the comfort of the leather sectional, you can savor a delicious homemade meal thanks to the upscale full kitchen.

Don't put off your trip to the Gulf Coast even a second longer. Save your dates today!

Please note: this home resides in a noise-sensitive area and the owners participate in our Good Neighbor protection program. Our smart home technology will alert our team if excessive decibel or occupancy levels are detected, allowing us to reach out directly with a friendly reminder rather than risking a noise complaint from a neighbor. This technology is privacy compliant, and only monitors the presence of decibels and devices—not any personal conversation or information. Thank you for supporting our efforts to be good neighbors!

If you are bringing a dog on your trip, the pet fee is already included in your quote when selecting ‘Yes’ to pets. If you would like to add more dogs, please contact us. The pet fee is per stay and ranges between $150 and $200, depending on the bedroom count, and will apply for each additional dog.

Family vacation

Escape from the Storm was the perfect getaway for our family vacation. We enjoyed cooking meals in the fully stocked kitchen, and watching a movie on the big comfy couch. We rented a golf cart from a local business that does dropoff and pickup, so it was easy access to beachfront. Cobb's Cove subdivision is very family and full-time resident friendly area where we felt safe. We started new family traditions: annual summer trip to beach will have a Friday night casserole and Saturday night s'mores. Suggestions: if you're going to fun more than 2 loads of clothes or dishes- bring extra soap pods. Sandcastle toys are provided in room behind outdoor shower, bring own umbrella and chairs. Grill works, grill brush provided but bring own charcoal and starter; firepit was perfect for s'mores and fire forks are provided. Espresso machine, bring grounds; coffee maker uses paper cone filter and bring own grounds, sugar and cream. Bring own aluminum foil, extra rolls of paper towels, and aluminum pans for easy clean up.

Nice Location

Great location. If you plan to stay longer you will need to bring along your own amenities. We stayed 5 nights and were left only 2 rolls of toilet paper, 4 towels, no coffee filters. There was only one pan with no handle…..Could have been a little cleaner, just felt like things could have been wiped down, there was bird poop all over the deck railing. Other than that, it was a nice location. Relatively clean. Easy check-in and host was very receptive.

Great neighborhood for beach getaway

We enjoyed our stay at Escape from the Storm! The neighborhood was a great distance from the beach, so we didn't even drive our car...just walked with our gear. The home was cute and had everything we needed!

Windows

The windows were very dirty and couldnt see the view clearly. Noticed the other property windows around us were gleaming. The balcony table had bbq sauce or something very hard stuck on it.

Relaxing

We had a wonderful time the house was beautiful it had everything that you could possibly need already there. Miss Tammy was amazing she was there if you needed her she checked in on you making sure that everything was great and you had a great stay. If there was only one little tiny flaw would be maybe the beds …. Some of the beds were just a little uncomfortable to sleep in but other than that a great experience definitely would return I definitely would recommend to friends and family!

Our stays at Escape from the Storm

Very peaceful and quiet. The owner checked in regularly. Love there is a fire pit for marshmallow roasting or just chillin with family and friends. It's not too far from the Big Store (worth checking out as they have everything) if you need supplies or forgot anything. Clean and very comfortable. Have rented it several times now and will again.

Beautiful, charming spot

We loved our stay here. It’s very close to the beach, a private walk just a couple blocks down. The neighborhood is relatively quiet which was really nice. You can hear the waves from the beautiful balcony. We had coffee on the patio each morning. Neat patio and grilling area downstairs. The house was so cozy and welcoming. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

We had a wonderful stay! The property owner even called to check in with us to make sure everything was ok! I loved the personal touch. The only thing I would suggest is maybe have some extra pillows available. Thank you for a relaxing weekend.

It was awesome

We loved staying at this house. Loved the fact that there was 2 bbq pits. Make sure you only run water on the left side of the sink! The other side leaks pretty bad. Use it to dry the dishes on the rack thats there. I would definitely stay at this house again.
