About this property

Beach/Bay, Boat/Fish, Sand/Surf, Deck/Vistas

🏡 Welcome to Sea La Vie - Your Coastal Sanctuary! 🌟

At Sea La Vie, we offer more than just a vacation home; it's a unique journey you won't find anywhere else. 🌴

🏖️ Discover a Hidden Gem: Start your adventure with a stroll to the serene Treasure Island Beach, accessible via a pedestrian path just down the road. With our beach cart and an assortment of beach gear at your disposal, you'll experience beach days that are truly 'treasure'-d. As one thrilled guest shared, "This beach is a hidden gem, tranquil and perfect for relaxation." 🏝️

🌊 Ocean Views & Tranquility: Begin your mornings by sipping coffee☕ from our Sunrise Deck, where you can watch dolphins gracefully dancing in the waves of San Luis Pass. In the evening, savor a glass of wine on the Sunset Deck as the Texas sun paints the Intercoastal Canal with hues of gold and crimson. At night, head to the Stargazing Deck to count shooting stars under the celestial symphony. It's a coffee-to-cocktail, day-to-night experience like no other. 🌅

🏠 Spacious Comfort: With four cozy bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen🍳, and open living spaces, Sea La Vie is perfect for family getaways or romantic retreats. Guests have often described it as their "home away from home," praising the comfort and coziness that Sea La Vie provides. 🛌

🐶 Pet-Friendly Paradise: Don't leave your furry family members behind! Sea La Vie warmly welcomes pets, and your dog will adore the gated upper wrap-around deck, the sprawling green yard, and the short walk to the expansive beach. It's a dog's dream vacation! 🐾

🌟 A Beachfront Paradise with History: Sea La Vie, built in 1964, stands as a classic beachfront retreat, blending nostalgia with modern comfort. It's weathered countless storms on the Texas Gulf Coast since 1964 and hosted hundreds of families, each creating cherished memories. 🏖️

🍹 Outdoor Living at its Finest: Rejuvenate on the spacious deck or two covered patios, indulge in a mouthwatering BBQ, or gather under the starry skies🌠 on our star-gazing deck. As one enthusiastic guest shared, "Our family BBQs on the patio were the stuff of legends. It's like we brought the beach home with us!"

🧽 Spotless Cleanliness: Our property undergoes meticulous cleaning, stocking, and inspection to ensure an unparalleled experience. Previous guests have marveled at the spotless condition of Sea La Vie, saying, "I'm a clean-freak, and it was cleaner than my own house!" 🧹✨

📚 Family Fun: Immerse yourself in our diverse library of books📖 and games🎲, or unleash your competitive spirit with our Xbox One. Create lasting memories, just like the Smith family who delighted in playing a family trivia game called Jackbox Party Pack using their cell phones as controllers. It's a modern twist on old-fashioned family fun, creating treasured moments.

🚗 Ample Parking: Worried about parking space? Fear not! Sea La Vie offers plenty of parking for your entire group. As one delighted father put it, "We effortlessly accommodated six cars and even a rented golf cart in the available parking with a dash of coordination. It was a breeze!" 🚙

✨ Luxury in Every Detail: We've adorned our property with unique touches, boasting luxury and quality amenities throughout to make your stay truly unforgettable. From incredibly comfortable beds to available pedestal fans and luxury kitchen appliances, Sea La Vie offers the epitome of comfort. One contented guest summarized it perfectly, saying, "It felt like home, but better!" 🎁

🌟 Nearby Adventures: Sea La Vie isn't just about the property; it's about the whole experience. Just a stone's throw away, you'll find the San Luis Pass County Park. A haven for boaters, it features a public boat ramp🚤, a cleaning station, and a convenient store - everything you need for a day of fishing🎣 or crabbing adventure.

🏡 Centralized Location, Endless Exploration: While Treasure Island feels remote, it's actually a centralized location with short drives to the Surfside jetties and restaurants, Jamaica Beach stores and eateries, and only 20 minutes from the southern end of the Galveston Sea Wall. You're never far from exciting adventures and delicious dining! 🍽️

🌴 Amenities Galore: Sea La Vie is packed with amenities to elevate your stay. From essentials like air conditioning, heating, and WiFi to delightful extras like an Xbox gaming console, an array of board games, and a surround-sound system.

Excellent Vacation Home

My family of five had a wonderful stay. We were provided all the necessary essentials and more. The area was quite and we didn't have to fight with crowds. A little further from Galveston than we normally stay but would definitely stay again. We appreciated the security, beach toys and chairs and it was a short walk to the beach. My children loved the xbox and snacks that were provided. Host was helpful and easy to work with and contact.

Short walk to the beach

This home was beautiful and a very close walk to the pedestrian beach down the street. There is also parking right next to the beach. Although there are houses in front of the rental you still have a full view of the water just across the street. Very quiet neighborhood. The home had everything we could possibly need and we can't wait to stay there again! My only complaint is how terrible the mosquitos were but thankfully repellent was provided. Just be sure to bring some for your pets!

Birthday Weekend

We had a great time Sea La Vie. The location is outstanding and despite it being barely a block away from the beach the view is beautiful. The neighbors were all welcoming and it's a spot for a quiet but fun weekend. Our host Curtis was very responsive to questions and even gave a courtesy call to see if there was anything we needed rt after check in. He let me know what was close by for fish cleaning and where we could buy fresh fruit across the road. I highly recommend Sea La Vie for any occasion. Thanks Curtis!

Good stay

We enjoyed spending time at this property in a quiet neighborhood close to the water. We did have problems with the tv sound bar not working and the downstairs toilet non functioning, but the owner was quick to request a maintenance person. Even though those problems were not fixed during our visit, we enjoyed the amenities, view and time spent with long time friends.

Perfect Getaway!

I can’t say enough great things about this property. There were so many details that went into making the whole experience absolutely amazing. From the Keurig Coffee, the baskets of snacks, the warm throw blankets, the family games and so much more made this one of my favorite family vacations. We walked the beach every morning and there were even Baja Hoodies for those days that were cooler. If we had any questions or concerns, they were addressed right away. Can’t wait to plan our next trip!

Nice older beach house

My family and I went to this home and had a blast!! The home was fully stocked with everything we needed along with notes on the walls for additional instructions!! We did try to contact the homeowner by phone because some alarm went off and locked us out the home for sometime but was instructed to only communicate through the app which was time consuming and frustrating but we figured it out on our own! Other than that We enjoyed ourselves!!

A remarkably well-appointed, well-maintained, and comfortable find!

We booked this house for a family-and-friends thanksgiving getaway and it was PERFECT. I have seldom found a rental with so many thoughtful touches throughout -- it really was delightful in the literal sense of the word, from included snacks to provided blankets for sitting out on the porch. The owner even responded VERY QUICKLY when we had questions about the Google Home aspects! It's definitely a home we'd love to book again!
