Upon its release, Beach House EP was met with generally positive reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 69, based on 6 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews". Justin Hunte of HipHopDX said, "From mic to plug, Beach House EP triumphantly strikes the same note. The Los Angeles-native is a talented songwriter even while essentially re-writing the same song, which is a complicated square to dance in without two-stepping too close to redundancy. Remaining interesting without contextual diversity is tricky. Fortunately, Ty Dolla $ign doesn't have those problems." Craig Jenkins of Pitchfork Media commented saying, "Beach House the EP succeeds where the mixtape Beach House 2 didn’t, further commercializing Ty’s sound without sacrificing the meat and potatoes of it, the foul-mouthed, sex-positivity of Ty’s quixotic bedroom capers and the production’s precarious balance between slight, house-informed ratchet music, trap and densely arranged traditional R&B sounds." Christopher Weingarten of Rolling Stone said, "Ty Dolla $ign's singsong rap&B has maintained a perfect balance of comforting croon and pickup-artist kink. This solid seven-song EP, his first official release, doesn't sail out too far from the formula of Ty's Beach House mixtapes."
