A fabulous location for beach lovers, this upscale 2BR/1.5BA house (sleeps 6) in Galveston is just across the street from the Gulf of Mexico, Pleasure Pier, and popular beachfront seafood restaurant, Fish Tails.

A stylish kitchen wows with brand-new stainless steel appliances, while a high-end beachy decor features throughout the open living space.

There’s also impressive outdoor space, including a backyard with a dining table, and an upper-level deck with great views of the gulf.

Each bedroom has a flat screen TV and gaming system, so the kids can keep themselves entertained while the adults relax!

ABOUT THE HOUSE

This light-filled home is replete with the vibrant colors of the Gulf Coast. In the living room, kick back on a queen sleeper sofa with seashell-themed pillows. Two oversized armchairs offer additional lounging spots, and a 55" flat screen comes with DIRECTV.

Whip up tasty home-cooked meals in an oh-so-chic kitchen with its own 42” flat screen TV, quartz countertops, and an array of stainless steel appliances — including a gas range and roomy side-by-side refrigerator.

A breakfast bar has seating for two. Steps away, share meals around a glass top dining table, seating four.

Make the most of the sunny weather in your private backyard. There’s a gas grill, an outdoor shower, outdoor speakers, and an eight-person patio table. A bench also comes stocked with beach toys.

At the front of the house, there’s more seating on a shady front porch. From here, a spiral staircase leads to an upper-level deck with fantastic gulf views.

The home’s coastal theme continues in a tastefully furnished master bedroom. Slumber in a queen bed, set before a 48” wall-mounted TV. This room also has a large closet for guest storage.

The second bedroom offers a great space for the kids. Along with a full-over-full bunk bed and a large walk-in closet, this room comes with a 40" wall-mounted TV, DVD player and Xbox.

Both bedrooms share access to a beautiful guest bathroom with a dual marble vanity, and a tub/shower combination.

In addition, the house has a half bath, complimentary Wi-Fi, cable TV, and a washer/dryer. The driveway and garage offer parking space for two vehicles. The garage also has folding chairs and an umbrella that guests are free to take to the beach.

THE LOCATION

Walk 4 minutes from your door to reach the beach and the rolling waves of the gulf. Take a stroll along Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier for retro arcades, rides, and waterfront eateries. You're right near the Mardi Gras Parade routes, too!

Drive 12 minutes to treat the kids to a wet ‘n wild adventure at Schlitterbahn. Or head 20 minutes to enjoy kayaking, fishing and hiking around Galveston Island State Park.

Numerous cultural attractions are also nearby. Visit The Bryan Museum to learn about old Texas and the American West, or take guided tours around Moody Mansion — an elegant residence dating back to 1895. Both attractions are a 5-minute drive from home.

Great house, great stay!
Nice updated new house with new appliances. Everything about this stay was excellent up until no one could work the TVs or the speaker. I never knew I’d not know how to work a tv lol. Other than that, this house has everything you need; from pits to silverware. I enjoyed it! Beds are also comfortable and very clean!

The indoor is decorated with a beautiful beach theme. It created a comfy feel. The private parking was a big plus! The location was directly accessible to the beach and local shops and restaurants. I would definitely rent the place again
