The house features a huge living room for guests to unwind after a fun day at the beach and large ocean view decks to enjoy your morning coffee while watching the sunrise in the morning and an adult beverage in the evening while watching the sunset :). This beautiful home is the perfect size and layout for a large family or group of friends traveling together. The home has everything you need for a perfect full week or weekend getaway from the city. Bonita Rita is located in the closest west end, beach side subdivision in Galveston. From the moment you arrive, you’ll immediately fall in love and be welcomed by a soothing ocean breeze, the calming sound of dancing waves, the bright and open interior featuring cozy furnishings, lovely decor, and large windows that flood the home with an abundance of glorious natural light. All the conveniences of home are provided as well including air conditioning, in-unit washer and dryer, updated furniture and appliances, and high-speed wireless internet access for your convenience. After making beautiful memories all day at the beach, rinse off in the outdoor shower and retreat inside to the comfortable living room, where you can unwind while watching TV on a 50' HDMI flat screen. Once you've worked up an appetite, you'll find the home's modern kitchen fully equipped with everything you need to prepare delicious meals or simply go downstairs and BBQ while listening to the ocean waves. The balconies will serve as the ideal place to spend nice evenings admiring the ocean views with all of your family and friends. When you’re ready to call it a night, retreat to one of the inviting bedrooms to rest up for the next memorable day and look forward to arising from the Master and 2nd bedroom suites through the double french doors to enjoy Galveston's beautiful sunrises from your deck. You will not want to leave Bonita Rita!

You can’t beat this home’s outstanding location! It is the closest neighborhood to the seawall and there are plenty of local activities only miles away. Take a quick stroll over to Sunny Beach to swim, body surf, fish, boat, or simply lounge in the sand. Nearby downtown Galveston offers Five-Star restaurants, charming shops, and historical sites.

About the host

Hosted by Jesus Galvan

Host profile image
Being always around water my entire life I have always dreamed of some day owning my very own beach house. A native and proud Houstonian (La Porte), I have great memories of always visiting Galveston in the summers and on the weekends growing up. Even when I left Texas to join the U.S.M.C, I always made time to come visit Galveston atleast once during my visit to Houston. Whether it's fishing, body boarding, swimming, waking up early to watch a sunrise, eating, hanging out with friends, or just relaxing on a beach chair staring at the waves, I've always loved being in Galveston and never enjoy leaving.

Jesus Galvan purchased this House in 2019

Why they chose this property

Bonita Rita as we call our own piece of paradise is close enough to home to be convenient, but far enough to feel like you are away on vacation when you are there.

What makes this property unique

We chose Sunny Beach because of the proximity to the seawall and all of its amenities which makes it so easy to get in and out of Galveston. The extra large family room that extends on to the huge oceanview decks makes it so convenient and fun to invite lots of family and friends over and all feel connected with no one left out. Bonita Rita is across the street from Solaje (our first love purchased in 2014). Our addition of Bonita Rita now makes it so convenient to own two homes so close to each other and accommodate our large family get-togethers with multiple families staying at both homes.
