Sandpiper Rv Park

This was our first stop with our new coach. I’ve never really been to an RV resort before, but this place is super nice. The owners (?) are super accommodating and friendly. Also very dog friendly which is great for us. You can access the beach through the back gate and walk on the super fine sand and collect shells. The infinity pool and hot tub are beautiful and relaxing. The kitchen is absolutely gorgeous. We didn’t bring a car, so we biked everywhere and the staff were able to tell us where to go and how to get there. I would totally come here again.

This place is a little gem on the beach. In fact you’re so close to the beach that at night you can hear the pleasant sound of the waves in the distance through an open window.
The staff is reasonably courteous but we’ve heard stories of them not being all that interested in resolving issues. There’s a lackadaisicalness that makes me believe this may be true. Despite that the entire resort is smooth and level concrete with grass patches between the spots. Spots are long and wide. The pool and hot tub are spectacular and maintained meticulously.
I should note that Phil is a standout. His attentiveness and interest in service is second to none. Al’s pretty groovy too!
There is a motel onsite reserved for visitors to guests of the RV resort. In the main building are the showers, laundry, and a common recreation area and kitchen all of which are open and available to guests.
Shopping and restaurants are within walking distance with Galveston attractions within about a 5 – 10 minute drive.
We’ve decided to spend 2 months a year here and look forward to our next visit! We camped at Sandpiper RV Resort in a Motorhome.
Mario’s Italian restaurant is within walking distance and is incredible. Their lunch buffet for $ 9.99 can’t be beat. For pizza and wings delivery try Papa’s Pizza. Check out our full reviews of local restaurants.

Great location for us for the fall. We plan on staying 2 months before moving on to Arizona for the winter. This is our 2^nd year here. The sites are long and wide (except the overflow sites off of the road). There is an infinity pool with a view of the gulf along with a jacuzzi that is always inviting. The staff is friendly and helpful. It is a short walk to the beach, though it is in view from our rig. The is plenty of things in the area that is within walking or bike riding distance, such at the Pleasure Pier is 2 miles away.

Nice, prices highly variable. Internet better at State Park – so sloooow or no connectivity despite reported «3 routers» or going to sit in lobby. Cannot even stream a movie and cable has 3 channels. Mosquites a real problem due to drainage ditch on east side – better be self-​contained…

The reason for the 2 star review is straightforward: For an average of $ 75 a night, we basically camped in a parking lot on the side of a 4 lane highway. Sites 32 – 40 are not exactly «picturesque», as my pictures show. We were very disappointed by the location. Another downside for these spots in particular is that they are very close together. The strip of grass separating each campsite is maybe 1 – 2 feet at the most.
To get to the beach, a little hike is required — maybe a ¼ mile. If you’re taking umbrellas, chairs, floats, etc, you’ll want to drive your car or truck and pay the $ 8 to park on the public beach.
On the plus side is that the amenities were very nice; the bathrooms are clean, you have full hookups with cable, and WiFi (although service was somewhat spotty). The inside also has a nice kitchenette if you want to cook a larger meal.
[Edited to add] My wife wanted me to point out that when she made the reservation she was told that we would be «on the seawall». Well, as you can see from the pictures it’s not a seawall like you imagine along the rest of Seawall Blvd where the ocean is just beyond the «wall». Yes, it was elevated and higher up than the other campsites, but that doesn’t buy you anything since the ocean is still ¼ mile away. You can see the ocean, but only if you stand on a picnic table. The only thing you’re closer to is the highway. While the rest of the park is enclosed by a fence, sites 32 – 40 are wide-​open and accessible by anyone walking or driving by. That had us worried about theft too.

Very nice campground near the beach. This is a great location. Infinity pool and hot tub are awesome. All the amenities. We pain $ 45.00 per night.
