Enchanted Beachfront | Sunrise + Sunset Views!

Beachfront properties don't get any better than this!  Enchanted Beachfront is located in Stavanger Beach of beautiful Galveston Island.  This beachfront home has 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths.  The home is located directly on the beachfront - nothing except sand between you and the water.  Views from this deck are unending - both east and west - watch as the sun rises every morning over the east end of Galveston Island and as it slowly creeps toward the west in the afternoon.  Guests who love watching the waves crash on the shore will be amazed  how far they can see from Enchanted Beachfront. 

Enchanted Beachfront has an enormous open concept living/dining/kitchen area which provides plenty of space for the entire family to enjoy their beach vacation together.  The entire open concept room has ceiling to floor windows opening up the view of the beach and the Gulf of Mexico.  The home has storm shutters to be opened upon arrival (via remote control given at check in time). The fully outfitted kitchen has a very large work space, big refrigerator to store all of your fresh seafood and steaks, more than enough cooking implements including pots and pans, kitchen tools, dishes, bakeware, serving platters, and all types of glassware for drinking.  Those in the kitchen preparing meals will be part of the crowd as the large dining table seats everyone for a meal or the table can be used for games and socializing.  The living area features an impressive 55"" curved TV and a Blu Ray DVD which can be seen from everywhere in the room. The main living area of the home also has a 1/2 bath for the convenience of the guests.

The sleeping arrangements at Enchanted Beachfront are as follows.  The bedrooms are all located on the 2nd floor of the home.  The primary bedroom faces the beach and has a walk-out balcony.  The primary is a very large room featuring a queen bed and a twin sleeper chair.  The primary has an en suite bath and a television.  The second bedroom has a full size bed and a television.  The third bedroom is a bunk room with two built in sets of twin bunks (sleeps 4) and also has a television. 

The cargo lift in this home is NOT to be used. This home is pet friendly (up to 2 dogs) with fee paid at the time of booking.  Guests are responsible to curb and leash their dogs.  The fireplace in the home is NOT to be used.

Gorgeous Home

The location was amazing. Not crowded this time of year in Feb. Knocked off a star because the master bedroom storm shutters would not open. I had looked forward to waking up to the sunrise. But once they get that fixed, I probably will stay there again next year.

Fantastic

My family and i had a wonderful experience. Pros - great location (a little far from town but we knew that.. and close to the west end marina), finishes are modern and well done, house was very clean and the check in process was very easy. Also, lots of follow up from management to see how our experience was going. Oh, master bedroom is amazing!cons - secondary rooms are a little smaller than they appear in the picture but no big deal as they worked fine for the kids. Also, yard is a little smaller than it appears in the pics but absolutely adequate for kicking around the soccer ball etc.. Only other thing is that you have to return the key to the office in town upon checkout. If we could simply put it back in the lockbox where we found it, it would be more convenient. Overall, this was a 5-star experience for the money and i would recommend this property to anyone. We would go back for sure.

Great house - Perfect location

The house was beautiful, appeared recently renovated, and nicely stocked. The master bedroom is huge with beautiful views. The 2nd and 3rd bedrooms are comfortable and serve their purpose but are a bit smaller. All three bathrooms were very nice. The two covered decks were amazing and the location with private boardwalk to beach was perfect!! We much prefer this beach over Boliver/crystal beach. Smooth sand with almost no shells and way less crowded - great for kids to play! Highly recommend this property.

Couldn’t have asked for anything better! The only issue we experienced was the taller gentleman in our family (6’2”) didn’t fit in any of the beds length wise. Otherwise, this is an amazing home- very clean and beautifully decorated. We absolutely loved our stay and will definitely come back again!

Beautiful place, but....

The home is beautifully designed and looks just like the pictures, unfortunately the entire place smells like mold. There is mold visible above one of the double doors as well. Also, there were only 6 towels for the showers. There were six of us (4 being girls who use 2 towels per shower) so this was really inconvenient. I was washing towels our entire stay. I would also recommend having more than one dish towel, rags available and some type of cleaning spray for the kitchen counters. That being said, it was a lovely home and pretty far out so not as crowded, but we will not be staying at this location again.

Beach weekend

The property is front row on the beach which makes it very convenient and a fantastic view. The property is also a little farther from Galveston so we found the beach to be quieter and less crowded. We loved being able to have coffee on the deck in the morning and play with our dog in the fenced yard. The house itself is great and had all the essentials (towels, soap etc) for a long weekend but a full week long stay would require you to bring your own items to supplement. The only point of improvement would be the cleanliness of the property which could be improved (cobwebs, dust etc) but overall was in decent condition. Check in and check out process was easy through an app.

Family Vacation

We really enjoyed our stay at this location. Beautiful house and great beach access. There were a couple of things I was not satisfied with. First we came in and there was a plug that had apparently caught fire, burn marks up the wall and around. The breaker was shut off to this plug which also caused the living room tv not to work. Then notice the smoke detector about was taken apart. I called this in and was assured someone would call back. No one called. I called again. No one called. Again had to call the next day to report it and finally around lunch someone showed up. Other than that our stay here was pleasant.

Beautiful house on the beach

The house is beautiful and the double decks overlook the beach. The house was clean and beautifully decorated. We really enjoyed our stay and there was plenty of room for our group of 6. The beds were all a little uncomfortable and it would have been nice to use the lift since you have to drag everything up at least 1 flight of stairs and then another to get the bedrooms. We brought a lot of stuff since there isn't really a store close by. Over all we loved the house!

Beautiful house, but cars can drive on beach

It’s a very nicely updated house, with beach-friendly wood-like tile throughout, a spacious laundry and primary bedroom, plenty of storage and a great concrete driveway and parking area. The biggest downside to this property is that cars can drive on the beach in front of this house. Saturday morning, at 7 am, two trucks with three fishermen drove directly in front of the house and set up two tents and TEN fishing poles, spanning the entire beachfront associated with the property. And they didn’t leave until 5pm! It was very frustrating because it forced us to then claim a spot of beach in front of a different beach house, which I didn’t like doing. Other downsides: the tv didn’t work and internet was spotty but that was due to the recent hurricane Beryl, and there was a water leak outside-the standing water made mosquitos even worse and we were not notified that someone was coming to fix it-he just showed up on the porch, which scared the children. In summary, if the lovely house was located on a different stretch of beach where cars couldn’t drive we would definitely rent it again.

It was a pain in the bottom to go to a realtor office pick up keys then head to the property.

The property was extremely nice. Well taken care of. What was a waste of time was all the extra hassle with the property representatives. So much paper work and then after all the paper work and additional personal questions we at had to picking up the keys from the realtor office and then heading to the property. The properties we have stayed at in the past have codes to access which works well after a long trip. The AC was not working when we arrived but was fixed right away after repeated calls.

Positive: Location! Location! Master Bedroom!! Negative: The lift- That really needs to be available to the guest. The home is nice; however the upstairs is soo narrow. The guest and twin bedroom is really narrow. I had 3 teenage girls(13) and the bunkbed room was really tight for them to get around. The kids was not feeling comfortable on the top bunks as well. This room might be good for small children. The other guest room was tight as well. The master bedroom is the BEST bedroom in the house! The room is SUPER large and has a spectacular view to the beach from the room and outside on the balcony!! The downstairs of the home is GREAT!!

Great Property and Location. Few safety issues.

The property was in a beautiful location and the ocean was great. There were a couple of issues I think anyone staying here should be aware of. There was a burned up outlet in the living room with actual smoke stains on the wall. Half of the outlets didn’t work downstairs, including the shades downstairs to close for the night. I have two young kids and it’s not exactly what you want to see when you get inside the house. I also called them and let them know that the outlet was burnt and that we tried to use. We tried to turn it on and it did not work and it started smoking, they told me they would fix it and they apparently came by and I never heard anything from them afterwards and it did not work after they came by. I didn’t hear anything from maintenance. I just dealt with a TV in the living room not working or any outlets down there not working. There was another issue with the grass. My dogs, my kids, and myself couldn’t play in the grass because of all the stickers in the yard. We chose this property because of the closed in yard for our dogs and our kids and we could not use it. We had to make sure we wore shoes and had to pull those stickers out of our pets feet and our kids feet and my own feet. it’s also not obvious from the photos online, but people can drive on the beach and some of them drive quickly so please be aware that it can be unsafe at times. Overall, the stay was okay. I just think for the price that one would expect a little bit more safety and function

Beautiful home, incredible views, missing basics

The check in process wasn’t great. They forgot to open the storm doors so when we arrived past dark, we couldn’t figure out how to get into the house. Luckily someone answered the phone when we called and walked us through the codes to get into the house. He kept asking me if I had checked my online portal which I had. There were no instructions besides where to find the lockbox. The house itself is beautiful and it was clean enough. The beds are comfy but the kids room is tiny and the other smaller bedroom is also tiny. They provide almost no extras. We didn’t have enough bath towels for each of us to have one so we had to call and get more delivered. They do not provide beach towels or extra blanket. We were given two dishwasher tabs, no washer tabs, no paper towels or napkins. Think model home where everything looks lovely but the drawers are empty. They have almost nothing in the kitchen (no pasta strainer, no spices…salt and pepper shakers were empty, nothing for baking, a moldy ice maker, a coffee maker that doesn’t work, no basics. And the closest place to get food is 30 minutes away. Every place we have ever stayed before has had fully stocked kitchen cupboards, utensils, spices, towels, toilet paper, etc. If this were my management company, I’d find a new one because this house really could be ten stars if they weren’t so stingy with the basics. It’s almost like they’ve never gone on a vacation before themselves.
