The tiny house was a great place to stay for my daughter and I! Everything was expected from the listing! Just a note because I didn't look at the details well enough before booking: there isn't an oven (there is a stovetop), washer/dryer, or dishwasher. So if those are things you are wanting please note they aren't at the house. The house was perfect for our needs and the outdoor shower was excellent compared to others!

From the listing, I knew this property was exactly what we were looking for. It is a non-shared home with porches and a yard! This property was full of amenities for the beach! The Host reached out to me when I didn't arrive as scheduled to make sure that we were ok. That was something that I really appreciated. He was available for questions at any time. I can't say enough how thoughtful the amenities were! Beach towels, beach chairs, beach cruiser bikes, beach wagon!!! Outdoor shower was the perfect place to wash all of the sand away before heading back into the home. All of the tools that we needed to make meals were available in the kitchen.Nice, quiet neighborhood with a Dollar General about two blocks away. I cannot wait to take my Son back and make new memories!!!

The tiny house was adorable, it had everything you could need to make the stay welcoming and comfortable. The house is about 2 minutes from the Galveston State Park which has nice fishing and walking trails. It's far enough away from the popular tourist attractions that it's peaceful but not too far to make it inconvenient to go.

About the host

Hosted by Carmen Santangelo

Host profile image
We have been Texas residents for over 20 years and have always enjoyed our vacations in Galveston. We are beach lovers and we were excited when a tiny house became available on the West End 5 years ago. We both enjoy working on our beach house and exploring the Galveston area. We enjoy travel and spending time with our grandchildren.

Why they chose this property

Good Carma, Tiny Beach House has a great location. Located on the beach side of the San Luis Pass on the West End. You will have a very short 3 minute walk to the beach and you will enjoy the proximity to Galveston attractions. Put your feet up and enjoy the cool ocean breezes, a cold drink and a beautiful sunset.

What makes this property unique

This property is an efficiency style space, but we have equipped it with everything you would need for a relaxing beach vacation. Private location, onsite parking, patio with lighting and shed with bikes and beach equipment.
