Welcome to Sunrise Sunset Retreat by Woods & Waves Vacation Homes — a big-sky, beach-view escape on Galveston’s West Beach, designed for the kind of vacation you’ll talk about for years.

This is a dander free zone - no pets, no animals of any kind!

Intro rates won’t last! Book Now for the Best Beach House on Galveston Island! We are super excited to offer this gem of a home to you!❤️🎉

We bought this home in December 2025, hosted a few early guests… and then hit pause because we knew it could be so much better. Now the house has undergone a major design refresh. This is the best vacation rental with a rooftop bar with 360 degree views - long lines of sight on every corner of the house!

The Sunrise Sunset feeling...
Wake up to Gulf light spilling across the decks. Sip coffee in a quiet corner while the rest of the house sleeps. Spend your day barefoot—beach time, deck lounging, family meals, and salty-air naps. Then climb to the Lookout Tower for sunset… when the sky turns sherbet pink and you realize you don’t want to leave.

With views from three decks + the tower, this home is built for together-time and space to spread out—perfect for multi-family trips, milestone birthdays, beach weekends, or “we finally got everyone together” reunions.
