Nice house, good location

Very clean, historic house a short walk from the beach in a quiet neighborhood. Well-kept and secure backyard and deck for a dog. There’s a grill but we didn’t use it given all the great restaurants and patios in Galveston.

Short trip to the beach

The house is super cute and within walking distance of the beach. Great back patio with fence for our dog. They even had doggie blankets and bowls available in case you left your pet's at home. We had a great time during our stay.

Cute house on quiet street

Family of 4 adults, 1 child and a dog enjoyed a very comfortable stay. Everything was clean, and brightly painted. The beach and great restaurants are in walking distance, but the kitchen was also well equipped with everything we needed to enjoy some home cooked meals too.

Great place to relax and have our dogs near the beach

We enjoyed a great stay at this place. It was perfectly appointed. Everything we needed in amenities and little niceties was there. We came with two female dobermans, the desire to cook some fresh seafood and just relax. It met all our objectives. I'd go back here in a heart beat.

Awesome Stay!

My wife and I had a wonderful time here. The house was a beautiful historic house that was kept in great shape. Off street parking was great to have. It was very comfortable, we had everything we needed to make our stay wonderful. The location was great, just a quick 5-minute walk to the beach, Paradise Pier, The Seawall, restaurants, etc. The neighborhood was quiet, which is a plus for us. Exploring Galveston during the day was easy, so much history in this town. If we travel to Galveston again, we will definitely rent here again.

This was our 2nd time to stay here and I’m sure we will be back. Such a perfect place to stay for our family of 3. House was very clean, well maintained and stocked with a lot of “extras”. Appreciate the kind and quick responses from the host. No issues at all! If you’re thinking about booking, do it!

Quiet street

Seaside Delight is a wonderful home on an unusually quiet street. Home is well equipped and spacious. The extra half bath is a great addition. Beautiful historic details in the home. Host Kathy was in touch easily but honestly we didn’t anything. Easy access to the beach and restaurants. One of the best rentals I’ve ever experienced

About the host

Hosted by Kathy Girndt

Host profile image
We love the island life! We are blessed with a beautiful family, career and now this awesome beach home. We work really hard, so we can play really hard. We love to have family time, travel, and fish. We purchased this house to share with lots of family and friends and hope that you will enjoy it as much as we do. Our goal is for all of our guests to sit back, relax and love Galveston as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We love the beach, love to fish, and most of all we love family time! Therefore, with Galveston only one hour away, we all decided this was the perfect place. Galveston has so much history, charm, GREAT restaurants, shopping and so much more to see and do that you can easily spend a week here and never run out of things to do. It also has the world's longest continuous sidewalk which attracts walkers, joggers, bicyclists, skaters and many more activities. So, if you like to be active, it's a great place or, if you prefer to relax, just grab a good book and enjoy the beach! We wanted to allow others to enjoy Galveston and our home as much as we do; therefore, we designed and furnished our home with comfort and entertainment in mind. Consequently, it's not just a vacation rental, it's a vacation home! Seaside Delight has been fully renovated with all new appliances, remodeled bathrooms, refinished floors and great bedrooms. With a large private deck and backyard. It is like a brand new home, but maintains the charming, historic cottage look and feel of the early 1900's.

What makes this property unique

Seaside Delight is just that. A delightful home for your vacation. Close to the Pleasure Pier, the historic Strand and just 5 blocks to the beach! For parking ease, we have a long driveway with access from the front of the house. You can easily park your boat or 4 large vehicles without relying on street parking. If you like entertaining outdoors you will love our backyard retreat with a privacy fence, large deck and plenty of seating areas.
