House rentals with a pool

Amazing pool! With Golf Cart Option!
Tara was very responsive from the start and during our stay. The home was very clean access was perfect and the pool was awesome. Awesome game room downstairs with great AC, games darts and fun times. I would highly recommend this location.

“ Coastal Castle of Galveston “ HEATED POOL & SPA!
Don’t hesitate to book this beautiful home! The back yard was AMAZING! The house was very spacious with everything you could possibly need! House was also very clean. The back yard is breathtaking, heated pool, fire pit, plenty of outdoor sitting and even a TV outside. Gloria was very nice and very responsive and answered all of my questions as well as provided clear instructions on checking in and out. I wouldn’t hesitate to book this beautiful home again!

Bikes/kayaks, great fishing, fire pit, pickleball!
This place was absolutely perfect! My teenage son loved the fishing my 10 year old loved the kayaking and my husband and I loved how peaceful the surroundings were! Definitely coming back!! Thank you Robin for this magnificent stay!

Mini resort! Pool and spa! 2 miles to Beach!
Kelly’s oasis of a home was absolutely perfect. My children and grand kids enjoyed the visit and had plenty to do. The backyard and porch were amazing. The guys played pool the kids enjoyed swimming. Most of all I was comfortable and felt secured with my surroundings. She left a beautiful sand bucket with treats for the kids to welcome us! She was an awesome host! Visiting again in August! Thank you Kelly for a lovely vacation.

Great 3BD/2BR/2LR Pool & Spa, 2 min to beach & all
Loved everything about this place. Felt right at home. Awesome location. Beautiful home. Loved the pool and enjoyed the hot tub at night. It was close to Kroger for last minute needs and a few mins walk to the beach. Will definitely be back in the future!

Heated pool/Private Home
First impression: how cute this place is! It’s tucked away in a quiet, safe neighborhood and just steps from a park with a playground—perfect if you can even convince the kids to leave the amazing pool that kept them happily entertained for hours. The house itself was spotless and had everything we needed in the kitchen. The beds were super comfy, and we all slept great. Another big plus: it’s pet-friendly! This house truly was the cherry on top of a perfect family getaway. We’re already looking forward to coming back and staying here again!

Gorgeous Beachfront Home with Modern Finishes
Would definitely be booking again, felt like home. Great front beach view, had everything we needed to enjoy our time out there !! Thank you Jeff!

Purple Palm Luxury Beach House, Views & Local Art
The house is situated where you can see the beach and the bay from the porch! Brandon was available for any questions, was super friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay!

Seaside Sanctuary: Your Beachside Escape
Erika Ivonne was a wonderful host. She even added a couple of amenities I asked about. I've never had a host do that before and it was much appreciated! The house was clean, comfortable, had a great porch with furniture to sit and drink coffee in the morning. It had a great driveway for off street parking, and plenty of kitchen utensils and pots and pans so we could eat at home. The TV was easy to use and the bed and linens were very comfortable -- and we're kind of picky about beds! She was communicative and super friendly and didn't have a long list of chores to do before leaving. We love bungalows and it was just right for porch sitting, looked good, and felt good. Would recommend!

Heated Pool and Beachfront Oasis
What a wonderful place! Loved the view! Loved the peace and quiet. Just perfect for a family with kids.

POOL & HOT TUB! Tranquil Galveston Escape
This is an absolutely lovely space… we enjoyed everything about… its location was son convenient to our plans while there… host was very prompt with response when I had to reach out

Cottage Amaris - walk to beach!

Private Pool - Noon Check Out - Veteran Discounts
Highly recommend the place! My family and I rented this place for a get a way. The home was definitely a vacation spot. The host provided us with a welcome basket and card and also some treats for our dog that came along with us. We will definitely be returning. Thanks David!

Beachfront | Pool | Hot Tub
This complex is our go to choice when staying in Galveston. The landscaping and pool are beautiful and we really enjoyed the addition of the hot tub. Love the large gated parking lot with easy pedestrian access to the beach that’s literally just across the street. The balcony off the upstairs bedroom is large and has absolutely the best view of the pool and the gulf. Planning our next visit to The CoCo!

Walk to Beach, Near DT/UTMB/Cruise Terminal
Extremely beautiful home! Very nice and clean felt so cozy! In a very good location such a quiet neighborhood, everything is close by and walkable to the beach loved that.

Beautiful Villa Brick Bay close to all attractions
Me and my friends had a very comfortable stay at this Galveston home. The kitchen space was clean and fully functional. The living room was spacious. The AC was amazing , nice and cool! I would definitely stay here, great value Airbnb.

Fleur De Galvez
Jordan’s place was very nice.. it is close enough to walk to the beach if you wanted..and close to pretty much everything there is to do here! If you’re looking for an amazing local place to eat while you’re here, check out Koop’s BBQ about 5 minutes from the house! I would recommend staying here to anyone looking for a nice home away from home!

Claddagh Cottage, charming island getaway.
This was such a wonderful place to stay. Patrick and Kathy were so kind and welcoming. We got to enjoy the beautiful home along with some recommendations for restaurants from them. I can’t wait to come and hopefully stay again. Thank you so much!!

Summer Bliss —Coastal Oasis Getaway
This Airbnb was everything we hoped for! The home was spotlessly clean and filled with thoughtful details that made our stay very comfortable. The covered parking below was very convenient. The decor had a beachy, cozy feel and we loved the outdoor speakers and all of the games available. It really felt like home away from home. What truly set this place apart was the host! She went out of her way to order us a baby gate to ensure our little one stayed safe~such a kind and thoughtful gesture that we very much appreciated. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a very clean, quiet, family getaway!

Beachfront + Hot Tub | Fireplace | Putt-Putt | Pet
We had an amazing stay at this beach house! Even with nearby homes, it felt quiet, peaceful, and surprisingly private—perfect for our family getaway. House was exactly as pictured, with a cozy, beach-weathered charm. The downstairs outdoor space was a highlight, and the hot tub was a great bonus (some sand in it, but totally expected at the beach!). The beach gear was definitely past its prime, but still appreciated and useful. The views were absolutely unbeatable, and despite the slightly higher price, we felt the experience and location were worth it. The only issue we had was an unexpected visit from a man who said he was there to check on some repairs. No one had notified us, and he entered bedrooms—including one where teenage girls were sleeping and our personal belongings were out. It caught us off guard, and I had to reach out to confirm he was actually sent by the host. A heads-up beforehand would’ve made us feel much more comfortable. Overall though, we had a fantastic stay!

Beachfront Pool - Chilled & Heated + Hot Tub
Great place to stay on Crystal Beach, especially for a family with kids. The walk to the beach from the home was super quick and easy since the path is right next door. There is even a trail directly behind the home that isn’t hard for agile people that makes the very small amount of steps even smaller to get to the sand, which is helpful if you’re carrying something out. Our kids loved the pool and this is one of the knit houses we’ve seen with a pool up on the deck level to make watching kids super easy. The hot tub was nice too. The pool and hot tub we saw cleaned twice during our super short stay which was even more than we expected. The kids loved the two bunk bed rooms. It had everything we needed and more. The painting TV in the living room is on the smaller side, but it was fine.

Cozy Fun with heated Cowboy Pool
The house was so cute and cozy for our girls weekend! It had everything you could need, and is close to all the local attractions and beach. Mitch was very friendly and helpful for every question we had. I will definitely be back here!

Bermuda Beach Beauty
We absolutely loved this place. Very, very clean and cozy!! We were not disappointed at all. The house was totally stocked with all the necessities you will need. The neighborhood was quiet and we had plenty of space on the beach to ourselves. Much needed relaxing beach vacation. I would most definitely stay here again. The only thing I would change is the door locks. They were tricky and I had daily arguments with them. Lol!!
