About this property

Reel close to the Beach - 2 blocks Pier/Beach

Why pay resort fees/parking and wait for what seems like hours for an elevator to stay in a condo, when you can have your very own beach house. We are centrally located to all the main attractions in Galveston and only 2 blocks from the Beach, Seawall Blvd and the Historic Pleasure Pier. You can hear the waves crashing from your front porch. All the great restaurants are within walking distance. Roll your beach wagon and boogie boards right from the front steps of your home to the beach.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

We’ve stayed in many homes over the yearly visits here, but this was by far my favorite location wise. You can see the pleasure pier just down the street and can easily walk to the beach in a few minutes. The house had everything basic we needed and a little yard for my dog to use the bathroom easily and conveniently. Would definitely stay again!

Very comfortable and welcoming with charming decor. It truly is only about 3 short blocks to the beach with nearby dining, ice cream, & entertainment options. The kitchen was well-equipped for cooking and we made appreciative use of the washer & dryer. Our dog loved the fenced in yard - so wonderful to drink coffee on the front porch watching her wander around sniffing & sunbathing. Evan responded within minutes every time. A minor maintenance glitch was fixed within 15 minutes. The house was a wonderful home base for the beach life and all that Galveston has to offer.

We had an amazing stay. The house is very charming. The front door code wouldn't work when we first arrived but the owners were very fast to fix it. Pleasure Pier was a 5 min walk and that sure beat paying 15 to park. The AC works great and the front deck is a great upgrade. Would definitely rent again.
