There’s enough space at Big Kahuna for up to 22 people— so invite the whole crew to join you for an unforgettable group getaway to the Texas coast.

The soaring, two-story, contemporary living area has plenty of space for your whole group to unwind and spend time together. Plush, overstuffed sofas face a flatscreen television that’s mounted to a crisp white shiplap wall. Kick back here in the evenings with some snacks and a favorite movie. Glass accent tables and stylish armchairs complete this comfy, modern space.



The kitchen is laid out in an efficient u-shape and features quartz countertops with a tiered peninsula bar. Flip a stack of fluffy banana pancakes in the mornings, or mix a batch of frozen margaritas at happy hour— the kitchen is fully equipped to handle it all. The bar space has seating for four people, while the dining table has seating for eight. A half bath and laundry room are located around the corner.

On the ground level, a fifth bedroom that doubles as a game room has a full-over-queen built-in bunk space, flatscreen television, and a bar top table for card games or board games. This room is connected to the main house through an interior staircase. Outside, there’s an outdoor shower for rinsing off after a day of fishing or hanging out at the beach. The covered dock space has a slip for parking your boat. Make sure to bring your fishing gear— there’s great fishing in the canal. And the Terramar Beach access point is a quick 2-minute drive from the home.
