AMAZING!

We feel so lucky to have found this home for our vacation! Our party was comprised of 2 families with a total of 4 adults and 5 children. This home was beyond amazing. Owner was VERY communicative and helpful. With their assistance we were able to have 2 rented golf carts waiting in the driveway upon our arrival and wristbands for the clubhouse and pools awaiting us. Home is even more beautiful in person. Loved the deserted beach and the kids LOVED the heated lazy river. Extremely well stocked house! By far the best stocked kitchen I've ever experienced on VRBO. We were advised that the home would be stocked with "starter" paper goods, but we found the starter to be plenty for our week long stay. During our stay we found a notice from the utility company on the door that they would be turning off power for a day to replace a utility pole. We reached out the owner who was very apologetic for this situation beyond their control. The owner then offered for us to get out of the house for the day, do some activities, and send the rcpt for our expenses so that we could be reimbursed. WHAT A GENEROUS OFFER! We would absolutely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone.

Perfect 4 generations getaway!

The home was perfect for out family which ranged from 5 mos to 83. Plenty of space and we loved waking up to the beautiful sea view. Every appliance one could think of was provided in the excellently well equipped kitchen. The girls had a great time picking out beach toys and which umbrella to use. The walk was not too long. Our 5 night stay was just too short. We hope to return soon!

Enchanting Beach House

This was a truly wonderful place to stay. I was able to see both the sunrise and the sunset from the back porch and really enjoyed the time in the swing listening to the waves. The Pointe West neighborhood is well kept, quiet and has two really nice beach clubs that you can pay to get access to. Inside the house, there are three "master" suites and two kids room. The kitchen is well stocked with beautiful appliances and pans. Our host was helpful, communicative and the property manager was there when we needed her. Overall, this was a fantastic experience!

Fantastic family vacation

The Lightcatcher house in the Pointe West community was the perfect set up for our annual 4 generation vacation! The house was beautiful, well equipped for cooking for a large family as well as everything you need to enjoy the beach. Every room has an amazing view! There was even baby gates to keep the toddlers safe from the stairs and a small napping room with a crib. I highly recommend renting a golf cart to cruise around the community to one of two pools, pickle ball courts and beach club! The bikes provided were also a fun way to explore the neighborhood in the evening! We hope to be back in the future!

STILL THE BEST!

This was our 7th year to stay at this beautiful property. Property is immaculate and offers many amenities for the whole family. Close to the beach, Beach Club and lazy river. We've watched our grandchildren grow up at this property and have made memories to last a lifetime here. Owners are very responsive and easy to work with. I'd give this property 10 stars if I could.

Super family reunion

My children and teenage grandchildren enjoyed this beautifully decorated home with space for all. The views from every angle are superb. The kitchen is a chefs delight with space for more than 1 cook. The cooking utensils and serving dishes accommodated our various types of prep. and service. Decks are huge and all around the home - even off the bedrooms on 3rd floor. Great Place and it really is a LIGHTCATCHER.

Best VRBO Stay Ever

This is hands down the best VRBO we have ever stayed at. The property is beautiful inside and out and the location was perfect. There truly are ocean views from every room. The furnishings are upscale and well maintained. You can tell right away that the owners care about their house. Kay is terrific owner. She is very responsive and truly cares about your stay experience. From the kitchen to bathrooms to the outdoor shower (excellent place to shower off sandy grand kids.), we loved the house and hope to stay again in the future.

Pointe West Beauty

We had a wonderful time at Lightcatcher even with the high winds all week. We had 10 of our family there- 5 children and 5 adults. With 3 kings, bunk room and 2 twins, the bedroom set up was perfect. The kitchen was beautiful and extremely well stocked. The house and deck has a spectacular 180 degree waterfront view which you never tire of. With 5 cars and an 8 passenger golf cart we had plenty of parking space. Pointe West has tremendous amenities ranging from 2 pools, lazy river, restaurant and rec room. Kay was so helpful prior to our arrival providing house info, Galveston restaurants and activities for the kids. Thanks for being such a wonderful host!

THE BEST RENTAL EVER!!!

I cannot imagine finding a better beach house than this one (Lightcatcher)! It had everything you would ever need for a fabulous family vacation. From a VERY well stocked garage with all sorts of fun things for the beach to a beautiful gourmet kitchen with everything you would need for cooking. The bedrooms were gorgeous and oh so comfortable. It even has a little room with a crib for our little one. We will DEFINITELY be back here again. The hosts were quick to respond to any questions we had. Really, just bring your beach towels, swimsuits and food and you will have a blast! No other beach house has been this nice and we have stayed in many!!!

About the host

Hosted by Raymond Gabrysch

Host profile image
We have rented beach houses in Galveston for the past thirty years. When Pointe West opened we began renting there and never again went anywhere else. We decided that this was the place we would finally build our own home. That dream was realized in early 2015 when we moved into this gorgeous home built by one of Galveston's finest builders. We are delighted to share it with you and hope that your family makes wonderful memories there.
