Comfortable Dog Friendly Beachside Home w/ 2 Decks, Open Living/Dining/Kitchen

Treat yourself to a Vay-K Villa! Located in Pirates Beach, this Galveston beachside vacation home easily accommodates 10 people and up to 2 pups. There’s lots of room for memory-making and relaxation with a spacious living and dining area, 2 decks, and perfectly appointed private bedrooms.

Slow down and enjoy time with your favorite people. The open living area with comfortable seating is the perfect spot to watch the sunrise or tune into your favorite shows. When it’s time to eat, gather around the wraparound breakfast bar or dining table while the family chef works their magic in the fully-equipped kitchen.

After a day of fun in the sun, you’ll love the well-appointed bedrooms with cozy furnishings. Two king bedrooms are on the main level. They share a large full bath with a double vanity that’s off the hall. Tucked away on the upper level is a dorm-style bedroom with 2 bunk beds, twin bed and a queen bed. Perfect for a family or multiple kids or teens, plus they have their own open deck and full bath just down the hall.

Speaking of the deck, it boasts comfortable outdoor furniture to lounge, sun, and snack on. Enjoy your morning coffee under the shade or dine al fresco on fresh Gulf seafood at the picnic table. Ready to hit the beach? The kids and pups will love the short neighborhood walk to sun, sand, and surf!

Great house in pirates beach

This is a great state for us, we had friends who flew in from out of the country and met us in Galveston for the week. The beach access is very easy - quick walk. The house is in good shape, and the accommodations were nice

Very comfortable

Beach house is very clean comfortable. Could use new dressers in downstairs bedrooms and an actual closet upstairs rather than an extra bed shoved into the closet space. Overall we had a great time and recommend this beach house.

Great for Large Groups

Had a great time here. There’s ample beds and plenty seating. Very close to the beach. Easy walk, and dog friendly which is such a huge perk. Also a Wine Cooler! Only suggestion. If there’s anything specific you want, especially for those planning to cook a lot, rather than it just being a place to sleep, I would recommend bringing those personal items, ie specific knives, tools, hand soap and extra trash bags.
