About this property
Huge Deck, Walk to Beach, Great Primary Suite, Ping Pong, Bikes, Beach Equipment
Welcome to Emerald Escape, a beachside gem nestled in the heart of Pirates Beach! Kick off your flip-flops and let the fun times roll. This little slice of beach heaven is perfect for forgetting all your worries and diving into vacation mode.
Let’s start with all the great stuff you’ll find without even stepping inside. The ground level’s got you covered with private parking for 4 cars, a shaded patio for lazy evenings, an outdoor shower to keep the beach where it belongs (not in your bed!), and a charcoal grill that’s begging for a seafood barbecue. And oh, the garage? It's basically your personal rec room with a ping pong table, all the beach gear you could dream of, and bikes for when you feel like exploring.
More treasure is just around the corner! Head on up to the main level for a bright & airy living room with a wall of windows, comfy couches & side chairs centered around a flat panel TV, and gorgeous wood ceilings. The nearby kitchen, equipped with stainless steel appliances, a farmhouse sink, and great storage space includes a breakfast bar seating 3 —perfect for casual meals or chatting about the day's adventures. The adjacent dining table easily seats 6, making it easy to gather everyone together for meals.
On the main level, you'll also find two inviting bedrooms, each painted in soothing ocean hues and thoughtfully appointed to ensure a restful night's sleep. One bedroom offers a queen bed with direct deck access, perfect for enjoying that first cup of coffee outdoors. The other room is a versatile space featuring a queen bed plus a twin bunk, ideal for families or friends sharing stories into the night. The real retreat, though? That’s upstairs in the primary suite. Think king bed, your own TV, access to a private deck with a porch swing, and an en suite bath where you can wash off the salt and sand in style in the tiled shower.
Whether you're here to bask in the sun, explore the coast on bike, or simply enjoy the peace and comfort of a beachside home, Emerald Escape promises a vacation filled with laughter, relaxation, and unforgettable memories. Pack your bags and prepare for a getaway where the beach is your backyard, and every moment is a treasure waiting to be discovered.

The Grand Escape
The Grand escape was a wonderful time! Great location and a very short walk to the beach. Had wonderful amenities especially the beach chairs, umbrella and beach toys for the family with bikes and ping pong table for family fun.
We really loved our time here. The porch is fantastic. It's nicely decorated. It was great for one couple with no kids and one couple with little kids, which was the makeup of our group. The kitchen is well stocked and there were tons of beach toys and a great wagon to use. Thanks for a great stay!

The most amazing time
This house was everything we expected. Plenty ok kids sand toys the wagon the kids had a blast at the beach the house like 5 houses down from the beach which made it great for the kids. We will definitely be booking again have already started discussing a trip in September. Security was great also so him making several rounds during the day.
We were very happy with this house. It was well appointed with the exception of toiletries but other than that we did not want for anything. The location was convenient to the beach and in a great family friendly community. We hope to come back soon!

Awesome Beach House
We stayed at the Pirates Beach Grand Escape 2 and we had an amazing time. The house is very comfortable and the kitchen fully stocked with all the essentials. It’s a short walk to the beach. Such a great location! This is our 2nd visit to Galveston and the house. We highly recommend!
This was a extended family trip for myself, 2 kids, sister and parents. Loved the house! The colors, design, layout makes you feel like you’re on vacation! Fantastic location to beach and we never left the area of property during our stay. Like some reviews have stated, no beach towels. Also, no shampoo, only liquid hand soap. The temperature in the house would fluctuate a bit. Rooms on main floor would be warm but living room is much cooler. Their book collection is gold! Overall, would love to come back. Thank you for a memorable stay!
My family has stayed here more than once and we’d love to go back!

Awesome stay
We loved our stay! The accommodations where excellent, the house is beautiful and fit our needs perfectly.Kathy was great, answer our questions and very responsive to our texts.we will definitely book with her again!!!!
The property was beautiful, clean and exceeded our expectations. Everything was well thought out from the toys and wagon in the garage to the well-stocked kitchen appliances and utensils. I would recommend it without hesitation, and I would definitely stay there again.
We absolutely loved our weekend getaway to this beautiful property. It perfectly fit our groups needs and had everything all ready for us to enjoy our weekend. And the 3 minute walk to the beach can’t be beat! We will definitely be back!
This is a super cute house and it fit our needs well. It’s pretty close to the beach, but we rented a golf cart anyway because we have three young children and they all love golf cart rides.
First time renters, Our experience was so wonderful that Galveston has become our primary getaway.
With so much happening in 2022, your property gave us the jump start and renewal we needed so much. Much Peace, Family Unity and Love drove back to Houston (Happy New Year 2023).
The house was perfect and we hope to be back. Lots of kitchen amenities. Close to the beach and pizza/seafood stores. Great upper balcony for evening drinks and stargazing.
