About the area

Galveston

Located in Midtown, a neighbourhood in Galveston, this holiday home is near theme parks and on the waterfront. Port of Galveston and Port of Galveston Cruise Terminal are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those wishing to experience the area's popular attractions can visit Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier and Moody Gardens. Consider McGuire-Dent Recreation Center for a night out or Galveston Schlitterbahn Waterpark if you're travelling with kids. Kayaking, scuba diving and snorkelling offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with cycling nearby.

Weekend Get Away

Very nice set up, true to posted pics. Comfortable ... Grill was clean and usable unlike other VRBO listings and pets were considered ie stkss dog bowls. Enjoyed front porch swing for morning coffee and back deck for an adult beverage. If you plan on cooking instead of enjoying the many Island Restaurants you may need to pick up a few things after arrival to suit your needs. Would stay again. A soak in the Tub ... Awe Relaxing!

Long weekend in Galveston with the kids

This property is so gorgeous and quaint at the same time! It’s is decorated so nicely and the furnishings made us feel so comfortable. We were able to find just about very thing we needed for a weekend at the beach right there at the house. It located near everything we wanted to do: the beach, activities for the kids, fine dining. And that claw foot tub! Mom Enjoyed a soak every night after a long day of playing. We will definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Devon

Host profile image
My wife and I live in Houston where we enjoy time with our children and grandchildren. But we delight in our time in Galveston with all it's history and charm. We are long-time volunteer sailing crew on Texas' tallship, SSV ELISSA, which calls Galveston home. But we particularly enjoy helping families build wonderful memories by providing them a comfortable worry-free stay in Galveston.

Why they chose this property

Our house is set up to be the ideal place for a family getaway or vacation. Bring your children, infants or even your pet! We try to anticipate our guests needs as much as possible. I think you will find it is the best equipped short-term rental you've ever stayed in. We even have beach equipment and toys. The central living area is quite spacious and comfortable with a large flat-screen TV and applications for just about every streaming service you could imagine. We have two large bedrooms, one equipped with a king-size bed and the other with two sets of bunk beds. One of the lower bunks is a double-size. The comfort extends to the outside with a fully-fenced yard front and back. The front porch is equipped with a swing and a separate chair and table. It's just the place to enjoy your morning coffee. We have a deck in the rear with an umbrella, table and chairs. There's even a propane grill to if you=re in the mood for burgers or hot dogs. We're centrally located. The beach is a 3-minute drive or a 10-minute walk. Galveston's historical downtown Strand and port area is only a 10-minute drive. Come and see us!
