Galveston TX - Pointe West Cottage - Sleeps 10 - Golf Cart Included - Pets Free

Don't let your time here feel like it is 'Wasted Time.' As soon as you walk in the front door, all your worries will melt away and you can focus on the important things - grilling, fishing, swimming, and relaxing. Our house enjoys beach views from the front steps and the back balcony. Gaze off the back balcony to a tranquil pond with a sparkling fountain.

Our house is located at the beautiful Pointe West resort on the west end of Galveston Island. Pointe West is a master planned development with private beach and is a one-of-a-kind location on the island. Our house is less than a 5 minute walk to the beach and we are a 20 minute walk to the Beach Club, or a 2 minute drive in the golf cart. The Beach Club is truly a resort, with pools, a lazy river, hot tub, nature walk, restaurant, bar, fitness center, etc. The Beach Club charges $25.00 per person (4 and older) for the length of your stay. YOU WILL ONLY BE ABLE TO PURCHASE 9 WRISTBANDS.

'Wasted Time' is designed to make you and your family comfortable. Cable TV and a DVD player are in the living room, the master bedroom, and the bunk bedroom for your enjoyment. All TV's are also equipped with Netflix. You'll find wireless high-speed internet and long distance calls in the US at no extra charge. Feel free to pack light, we have a washer and dryer for you to do a quick load of laundry. ***PETS STAY FREE***

Downstairs in the garage you will find everything you need for the beach; chairs, canopy tent, boogie boards and a wagon to take it all with you. You will also find a patio underneath the house complete with picnic table, chairs, hammock, and a charcoal grill for you to enjoy. All you need to do is bring yourself, we have the rest taken care of. For those of you with small children, we also have a stroller and pack-n-play for your convenience. We also have a 6 passenger golf cart that IS INCLUDED in your rental rate. Please feel free to use it to go to the Beach Club or to explore Pointe West. **NOTE: the golf cart CANNOT be driven on the beach!**

Seven Seas Grocery Store is the closest fully stocked grocery store and is 7 miles from the house. The Strand, Pleasure Pier, Academy Sports, Walmart, Randalls, and the rest of Galveston is approximately 30 minutes from the house.

*NOTE: I have no sub-agents renting my property for me and you will only deal with me. Rent with confidence if you are renting from me through VRBO or Homeaway.

Great Stay!
Really enjoyed staying at this house. We always love the beach club and come to this area annually. The golf cart made the stay extra fun this year. Everything was great and we will look to stay in this house again next year.

Great stay
We (two teenage daughters) came for our spring break. The overall place was perfect for the 4 of us. We loved the resort amenities and being able to use the pools and the on-site restaurant. The location is a good 20 mins from the main drag of Galveston - we liked that is was a bit quieter and we could choose to go to the more active area of town. Highly recommend!

Family Beach Trip
We had a great time at this cottage. It is further from pools and beach club, but with the golf cart, it was more than fine. We had a few storms during our visit but we were able to stay entertained playing pingpong and hanging out on the patio together. We had a lovely time! Thanks!

Great house, great location! Clean, organized and owner quickly replied to any questions! Loved riding the golf cart around in the evenings, and the house is steps away from the beach walkover! Would definitely go back to this house!

Enjoyed our stay, everything we needed was there, short walk to the beach and a short drive to the pool. They had a golf cart on site but we didn’t use it. House was clean and cozy. Will stay again if we get the chance.

Lovely home- we’ll taken care of and owners thought of everything and had great communication. Our teenage son loved having a golf cart to take to the gym. A little too cold for swimming while we were there but was still plenty to do!

Second stay at Wasted Time
This was our second time staying at the property in two years. We love the location in proximity to the beach, amenities, pools, and floor plan. The golf cart and ping pong table are an added bonus! We had a great time and appreciate the ease of communication and fully equipped house. Thank you Morgan!

Great little house in an awesome development with pools, hot tubs and lots of amenities. Our host has gone out of his way to provide most everything you could possibly need. From all the necessities of a house to beach toys and even a ping pong table and six person golf carts. Just a delightful place.

This is our 2nd year at this property and we had such a great time just like in 2022. Perfect location and the golf cart allows for much easier transportation to the beach and the beach resort. Morgan was fantastic as usual and so easier to communicate with and very responsive to our needs as well. We WILL be back!

Absolutely loved this place!
It is on the far side of the island, so it really does take some time to drive down to the center-but the beach access is WAY better and the beach club pools are phenomenal! Loved the house itself, the owner really has taken the time to try and put everything you could possibly need for your stay together. Lists of restaurants, beach toys, wagons, use of the golf cart for driving around the neighborhood. It was a wonderful stay. The power went out in the neighborhood on our last night there and the owner was very communicative with us about ETAs they were receiving from the power company. Loved our stay here!

Wonderful beach getaway!
This beach house is beautiful! The house is super clean and the master bedroom is gorgeous! We loved that we could walk to the beach. The beach was clean and not crowded at all! Everything you need for a day at the beach is provided-canopy, chairs, toys, floats and nets. We visited both pools and enjoyed the convenience of having a restaurant on site. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with my family!

Good overall!
Great location loved the golf cart so much! The beach was empty and they had everything we needed for ultimate beach and house fun. Kids were in heaven. There were so many massive mosquitos that attacked us every time we were downstairs… my 2 year old is covered in welts! The house also had an odd smell, probably just animals but we don’t have a dog so was not used to it. Probably won’t stay here again because of the bugs but otherwise great spot!

Great location for relaxing
We had a great time! The weather was not bad for the first week of May and both pools were fun! The lazy river one was heated and we barely saw anyone else. One weekday we pretty much had the entire beach to ourselves. The house is the perfect location for relaxing and taking things slow with a quick walk to the beach and a short trip to the pool. The house was clean, quiet, comfortable and had everything we needed. The kids had a blast!
