Centrally located historic home with so much to do you will never want to leave!

Stunning newly remodeled 4 bedroom, 3 and 1/2 bathroom home in the historic district that sleeps 12 comfortably with free parking on premise. The home is designed for entertainment and fun or just relaxing and has something for everyone. The cooks will delight in preparing meals in the well-appointed gourmet kitchen that offers all stainless-steel appliances including a 6 burner commercial gas stove with griddle. It has an oversized island, two large sinks, coffee bar and is open to the living/dining with seating for 12. The home has numerous large smart flat screen televisions with cable and free Wi-Fi throughout, as well as USB compatible plugs alleviating the need for charging adapters. For those that are young at heart, there is a game room that boasts an air hockey table and Jurassic Park pinball machine. There is also an attached media room with a 75" flat screen TV and comfy reclining sofas for film night!

There are two outside decks with seating, perfect for sunset viewing and a downstairs patio with an outdoor gas grill and dining table. There is a private splash pool, great for play or relaxing and a hot tub for just chilling. The pool is only 5 feet deep so it is NOT FOR DIVING. For those that are sports minded there is a putting green and covered basketball court for shooting hoops. When not shooting hoops, the covered carport is perfect for setting up tables for an outdoor dinner. We provide the folding tables and chairs. There are outside fans and a cooling unit for added comfort. There is also an outdoor shower for rinsing off post pool and beach.

Conveniently located to a variety of restaurants, shopping, Museums, Historic churches and other activities on the Strand. Just 5 blocks from the beach and seawall. We are pet friendly and provide convenient poop bag dispensers for picking up after your fur babies. Upon approval, we will allow up to two dogs up to 40 lbs. each with a required non-refundable $150 per dog pet fee. We kindly request that you utilise the bags to keep the yard clean. There are two outdoor cameras for safety. One in the front of the house and one in the back of the house.

The host was incredibly responsible and check in a breeze. Location was perfect and Just a short walk from the beach. The house was very clean, well equipped with everything we needed. We had a minor issue with outdoor fans, but the host resolved it quickly. The neighborhood was quiet, making for a restful stay. I would highly recommend this place to friends and would stay again.

I don’t typically leave reviews, but this house requires it! I booked it for our 6th annual girls trip. We have stayed in a different house every year and this was by far the best! We will definitely be back! The host was quick to respond to one simple question, the house was very well cared for, the pictures were accurate and current (which isn’t always the case), the pool was nice and clean and the house was in a great location! I can’t recommend this house enough!

This house was beautiful and so neat. We loved the pool and hot tub and spending time relaxing together. Air hockey was a huge hit and we all had fun doing that and the pinball machine as well. There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out which was great.The location is nice and driving to the beach and restaurants was easy. We would definitely stay here again!

We loved everything about this house. The only thing that could have made our stay any more perfect was if the house was directly on the beach. That being said, it was a super easy walk/drive over. Very centrally located to grocery, breakfast/dinner spots, etc.. They had everything we needed to cook, swim, do laundry, and enjoy our stay. The kids loved the pool and basketball court and we had a family weekend-long competition on the pinball machine. Home was clean and comfortable. Multiple decks to enjoy the Galveston breeze. Our initial code didn’t work getting into the home, but the homeowners were extremely diligent in communicating with us and getting us into the home. Highly recommend. Thank you for a fantastic getaway!

Galveston Home Great For the Whole Family!

This home is in a nice central location that's easy to get to everything. We were rushing around on a quick trip for an Ironman triathlon, but we'll definitely go back when we have time to enjoy all the many amenities they have to offer.
