Great house & Location

Our 4th time staying at this house! Love that it is right across from the walkway to the beach. It is the perfect size for a small family and has everything you need. We really appreciate that it has 2 very nice Tommy Bahama beach chairs.

Glei by the Sea was the perfect getaway. The hone is beautifully decorated, fully stocked with any supplies you may need from cookware to laundry. The view and access to the Gulf was unmatched, literally across the street. The host Kelly was always available to answer any questions I had and took in feedback as well. I would definitely stay here again and recommend to anyone who is looking for a quiet and relaxing home away from home!

Beautiful house- perfect for small family

Loved this house- on the second row, but still good views and the super short walk to the beach can’t be beat. So quick and easy to run back to the house. Very quiet which was perfect for us. Great porches, comfy beds, beach towels provided. Definitely 5 stars- we’ll be back!

Love this place!

Beautiful and very clean home! Short walk to the beach, which was so easy, even with little ones. Great AC kept the home nice and cool. Kitchen had all the necessary tools. Only thing we had to pick up was mosquito spray, but we stayed right after a big rainstorm and they were out in force. Overall, a wonderful place which I would highly recommend.

Great location away from public beaches.

Steps away from the beach, great view of the gulf. We enjoyed our stay with the kids without having to struggle to find parking and we had the beach practically to ourselves.

This property is conveniently located with beach access directly across from the house.

Lovely home tastefully decorated with a relaxed beachy vibe. The multiple decks are filled with comfy furnishings in a breezy setting. We especially loved the opposing cushioned gliders…perfect for reading a book, drinking some wine, and just catching up with your guests. And the beds were also very comfy. The house is a short drive to Galveston and also has several local restaurants nearby.
