Welcome to TOP OF EAST BEACH! at The Galvestonian—a truly one-of-a-kind, top-floor beachfront retreat long known around The Galvestonian as “The Penthouse.” With an impressive 1,428 square feet, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and balconies offering views from three sides of the building, Unit 1200 delivers a perspective of Galveston that few condos can match.
When the current owner purchased Unit 1200, the manager congratulated them by saying, “You bought The Penthouse!” Step inside, and it’s easy to understand why the nickname has stuck.
At the very top of The Galvestonian, you'll experience the incredible feeling of having nothing but sky above you. From this elevated vantage point, the scenery seems to stretch forever—take in sweeping Gulf panoramas, the northern end of Galveston Island, ships sailing to and from Galveston Bay, Bolivar Peninsula in the distance, and Galveston Bay itself.
With balconies and views from three sides of The Galvestonian, TOP OF EAST BEACH! creates what the owner describes as a true “eagle’s nest” feeling high above the island.
Spacious Top-Floor Accommodations
This expansive three-bedroom, two-bathroom condo sleeps up to 8 guests, making it an excellent choice for larger families and groups who want extra space without giving up the beachfront experience.
Sleeping accommodations include:
- 1 King bed
- 2 Queen beds
- Three bedrooms
- Two full bathrooms
- Maximum Occupancy: 8 guests
The middle bedroom has been thoughtfully converted back from an office into a bedroom and now features dark roll-down shades that can black out the room at night, providing additional privacy and comfort.
The condo has also been refreshed from its original blue-gray color scheme with cheerful, sunny colors, while the furnishings and wall décor have been carefully updated to complement the space.
Room to Gather, Relax & Take In the View
Natural light fills the open-concept living area, while the spectacular coastal scenery provides a constantly changing backdrop. With 1,428 square feet of living space and dining accommodations for eight, there is plenty of room for everyone to gather while still having space to spread out.
The fully equipped kitchen comes stocked with dishes, cookware, and appliances, making everything from morning coffee and breakfast to family dinners easy during your stay.
