Davis Beach: 4 BR, 2 BA House in Port Bolivar, Sleeps 12

Davis Beach is a beautiful, 4 bedroom, 2 bath house located on the tip of Bolivar Peninsula, near the ferry and channel. You can sit in the living room or on the furnished deck and enjoy watching ships pass in the night. The quiet beach offers majestic sunrises and sunsets! This area is also a bird lover's paradise - you will not tire of seeing the many species of birds right in front of the house. This property sits next to the historic Fort Travis Park where you can enjoy a nature trail or explore the park.

You'll love the open great room, with a comfy living area, well-stocked kitchen, and a dining table that seats 10! For your convenience, there is an on-site washer and dryer, and complimentary high speed internet. The televisions are also equipped with satellite TV.
Three of the bedrooms have king sized beds and the 4th bedroom has both a king and a queen bed.

Opportunities to fish at the nearby North Jetties make this location great. There is also plenty of room to gather in the shade under the house and enjoy the company of family and friends, along with a charcoal grill to cook up the day's catch.

(Please be advised that this narrow section of the beach does not connect to the remainder of Crystal Beach. You must go to the first beach access road roughly a mile down HWY 87.)

Location was perfect

The location was amazing - I love to watch the ships and it was an amazing location for that and there was always people out fishing while we were there so I'm sure that if you like to fish this would be an ideal spot. The house was very nice and has 4 bedrooms all with king beds, the kitchen was well appointed and the house was really cute with the beach decor. I was a little disappointed that there is not a gate at the top of the stairs - this would have been helpful as we were traveling with my dogs and some of the lights downstairs were not working. Overall it was a great stay.

the house was great

was met by two dying roaches in the hall. the comforters need cleaning. Need to trim a path to the beach! loved the back covered porch and the views. since we were a small group there were enough chairs. we spent most of our time on the porch. would advise a gate on the stairs. overall we loved the place after we removed the roaches. you only get one toilet paper roll per bathroom. had to go buy more. no dish soap or laundry soap.

Wonderful Stay in a Perfect Location!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an amazing time at this vacation rental! The location was ideal, just steps from the beach, which made it super easy for the kids to come and go throughout the day. The sunrise and sunset views were absolutely stunning.The home was clean and thoughtfully prepared. I really appreciated that the towels and sheets were individually wrapped, so we knew they were freshly laundered. Making the beds ourselves with clean linens was a nice touch for that added peace of mind.We did notice a few dead insects during our stay, but after speaking with management, they explained it was due to a recent preventative spray, which made sense and was reassuring. Since the home is pet-friendly—a feature we genuinely value—there was some lingering pet hair, especially on the furniture and floors. A deeper clean between pet stays would help keep the space feeling fresh for everyone.The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, and it was so convenient to have leftover seasonings and coffee filters available. The management team was incredibly friendly, responsive, and helpful throughout our stay.One thing to keep in mind: we did need to take a ferry to reach the home, so it’s worth factoring that into your arrival plans if you will need to do the same.Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would absolutely love to return!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Really enjoyed the house! I did have to run off a couple walking across the yard. The beachfront is behind a row of bamboo now so you can't see the beach, just the ocean. Fishermen and their families parked right in front of the house over the weekend. During the week we had it all to ourselves and enjoyed it! Wish list: something stable to walk over the dune and safe from bamboo (a mom and child fell corssing). A second refrigerator would be amazing since we had a full house and do not go to Galveston for food when we come.

Wonderful place to stay

This house is fantastic! We were 4 couples so the 4 king sized beds with bathrooms between them worked perfectly. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pans, utensils, etc. Charcoal grill is functional but needs replacing as the vents are rusted shut, but we made it work. The views are spectacular. Watching the ships line up to get into the port was a popular activity, whether from inside with the expansive windows or outside on the deck. There is a walkway to the beach in front of the house and the beach was clean and well maintained. There is a lot of privacy with the state park on one side and a vacant space on the other. The host was very responsive - we had to contact them when the kitchen sink backed up and they had a plumber there very quickly. This was a great place to stay!
