Does anyone else have vacation on the mind? We certainly do! Is there anything better than a seaside getaway at a beautiful home? Nowadays, there are so many options for beach house rentals out there (via Airbnb, HomeAway, FlipKey, to name a few) that it makes it quite easy to find a perfect little spot wherever you might be jetting off to.
Whether just driving down to Galveston or heading up to Nantucket or the Hamptons or going out west to Malibu, there are some pretty incredible homes to be found. While it can be nice to stay at a hotel, there’s something special and fun about staying in a home that’s yours for the week or weekend. You can wake up, make breakfast at your leisure, head to the beach for hours on end, soak up the sun, then head back to the house and grill up a feast. It’s especially fun when you go with a group.
I’ve pulled together some beautiful beach home inspiration that’ll make you want to go on vacation immediately (as if you didn’t already want to!). So keep on scrolling for some serious beach house envy.
