Spring. Break Fun

Tan Camp was a great place to stay for our group of 8, 4 adults, and 4 children under 10. Porch views of the gulf were lovely and it was just a short walk to the beach.

This was our second summer to stay at Tan Camp. Like the first time, we had a great time. Great location, plenty of space for our 6 adults and two kids, and house stocked with everything that we needed. We hope to stay there again.

Great beach house!

This house was so wonderful! 1 minute walk to the beach was nice especially with our 1 and 4 year old. We found the water hose and outside bathroom with a shower extremely helpful. The house was stocked with everything we needed for cooking meals, beach toys, chairs, and more. We would definitely stay here again!

Quick Getaway

Had a free weekend, so we met family for a quick getaway. 9 in the house with plenty of room. House is very well stocked with things you want. Clean, great views, quiet neighborhood. We've rented lots of different Galveston beach houses for 15+ years now. This one deserves the great reviews. Definitely recommend.

Best beach house rental!

The house is absolutely beautiful! Very clean with spacious rooms. All bedrooms are large and the 3 indoor full baths are large as well. Kitchen is fully stocked with utensils and all kinds of cookware. It was nice to have the kitchen cabinets and drawers labeled. The living room is large enough for everyone to enjoy watching TV or playing games. The home is spacious to accommodate a large group of people. Just steps to the beach. Looking forward to visit again!

Great beach location

We loved the views of the beach from both decks. Plenty of patio furniture to enjoy the view. Nice quiet neighborhood. The walk to the beach is very short and the beach is not crowded at all. The house matches what you see in the pictures. The kitchen is well stocked with pans and dishes. We are very glad we chose this house. If we came back to Galveston we would stay here again.

Memorable Getaway!

Beautiful large property! We had a blast! Nice balcony with great ocean views. You can hear the ocean waves. This property has soap, pots, pans, Keurig and everything else you may need to make your stay comfortable. Only complaint was the older lady neighbor - to the right, she was very grumpy and rude to my teenage son and I.

Fun in the sun (and clouds)

Beach home had everything we needed. Brought our adult kids and two grandkids and we all had a great time. Loved the deck gate at the top of the stairs on lower porch and kids tables inside and out with a few toys in the bunk room for 16 month old and 4 year. Very thoughtful. Beautiful view of the water on upper deck. Would love to stay again.

Great place to stay!

We loved our time here! The home was tastefully decorated and had all the nice touches of home. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen well stocked. The stairs were steep and not carpeted. That was the only thing I didn’t like because we have young kids who aren’t used to stairs. The gate at the top of the stairs outside was helpful. A baby gate at the top of the second floor stairs would be an excellent addition.

Five Stars

This property has earned the five star rating that I have given in each category! The house is beautiful with perfect views of the beach, which is only steps away! The house had everything that we needed and more! I appreciated all of the communication from Coastal Waves! They kept in touch along the way and I always knew what was next! We were looking for a home that we could return to over and over again and we have found it!!! We can't wait to come back!!

Tan Camp — Excellent

We did a last minute booking and the management company was very helpful. The house is beautiful and has everything you could possibly need. Very family friendly. The layout and decor is homey and comfortable. Beautiful, clean house with great views and just steps from the pedestrian only beach. The location is excellent, just a few miles from the seawall. Neighborhood is very nice with well maintained homes. The A/C on this large 2 story home worked great, something we have had problems with in other beach homes. Highly recommend this rental, best we’ve ever had and we have rented a lot of them over the years! This will be the place we will try to book every time from now on.

Location, Location, Location!!

The house overall was outstanding! The location was a 1 min walk to the beach. The house was very clean and well-stocked. The kitchen has literally anything you could need. There were plenty of bath towels. There was an outside shower, beach chairs, boogie boards and a grill. There was plenty of outside seating to enjoy the view while you eat. The communication with the management company prior to our trip could not have been better. They were extremely responsive to all my questions. The only less-than-amazing thing I can say is the water pressure in the showers is not super strong. We had an amazing time and would absolutely rent this property again!

Weekend in Galveston

This beach house is one of the best our family has stayed in in Galveston. The house is very comfortable. It has great views of the Gulf and is a short walk to the beach. The kitchen is well equipped for any kind of meal you fix. The rental company is very attentive and took care of a plumbing issue quickly. We highly recommend this beach house

Great beach house for multi-family get together!

Great location, quiet neighborhood but close to town. We stayed with our 3 grown sons, one of whom is married with young children. There was plenty of room and privacy for all of us. Loved the kitchen and master bedroom/bath the most. We like to cook and the kitchen has plenty of nice dishes, pots, pans, dishwasher, large fridge, utensils, etc. Chose this house for bathrooms - with 6 adults, wanted 3 full baths. Easy walk to beach even with small kids. Great upper deck for morning coffee with view of ocean. CLEAN and well-maintained. Coastal Waves was so helpful, always answered the phone when we were planning. No issues with rental. Would definitely rent this house again although we were previously 'hotel' people. We loved it. Would definitely go through Coastal Waves again also.
