Occupancy Policy
For a comfortable stay and in accordance with our house rules, the home accommodates up to 10 adults (18+) maximum - up to 13 total guests when including children.

We aim to keep the home affordable for smaller groups. Therefore, there is an additional charge of $25 per night for each guest beyond 10 (regardless of age) and applies to the entire reservation. Please ensure your guest count is accurate when booking.

An additional fee of $50 per guest per night will be charged if the number of over-night guests exceeds the number on the reservation. Exceeding property max will result in eviction without a refund. Maximum combined guests and visitors during the day is 15 including children.

Golf Cart Upgrade
A six-passenger gas golf cart can be added to your stay for $70 per night (plus booking platform fee and hotel tax), with discounts for stays of four nights or longer. Due to insurance requirements, rentals must be booked for the full stay. NOTE: Golf carts are NOT permitted to be driven on Galveston beaches. There is parking next to the beach, and they can be driven in Pirates Beach, including the north side across the Terminal San Luis.

The driveway can accommodate five to six vehicles - no parking permitted on the street or grass. Carpooling is recommended.
