Great stay!

The Tiny Beach Cabin was perfect for me and my dog. It was extrememly clean which is a must for me to give 5 stars! I loved that it was only a couple of blocks from the beach so that I was able to walk my dog several times each day. I would stay there again!

Great for a quick getaway

The property was perfect for a quick couple days at the beach. Super quiet location close to the beach. Both the bed and the couch were comfortable. Cleanest beach property I’ve ever stayed at. Perfect place for a small family of 3.

Cozy Coastal Retreat for Us and Our Pups!

We had a great 2 night stay here! Everything was really clean and we had enough room for a big kennel for our dogs. We took a peaceful walk to the beach every morning and walked in the nearby neighborhoods! Perfect area for a quick getaway. The grass was a little long in the yard but I think they had delayed the mow for a couple days because of flooding- they were mowing the morning we left. We would definitely stay here again!

This cute beach house was perfect for our weekend getaway. It's a short walk to the beach, is super-clean, and Carmen (the host) provided excellent communication throughout the process. This was our dog's first road trip and first time at the beach. She loved it! The gate at the top of the stairs is a great touch, by the way -- it allowed our dog to wander the deck while we relaxed there, without our worrying that she might dash down the stairs. The outdoor shower and hose were also helpful for cleaning her off after beach outings. Thank you for a very relaxing weekend.

Best Little Getaway!

This place is simply a gem! The owner was quick to respond from the very beginning. LOTS of amenities - loved the outdoor shower, the gated balcony was awesome for our dog to enjoy being outside off-leash, the wagon was perfect for the short walk to the beach...I could go on! We LOVED that the beach area was blocked off where cars could not drive on it. The tiny house was soooo clean, bright, fresh & nice. It was just right for my husband, me & our older pet - we had such a relaxing time. We will definitely be back!

Great for a Girl's Getaway!

I stayed here with my mom and 2 daughters. It was the perfect little beach house for our needs. Was very clean and the instruction book was very helpful! There were plenty of towels and sheets provided and there was even a closet full of things to use (wagon, bikes, corn hole) - not expected but so nice! We will definitely stay here again in the future!

Weekend Staycation

New to the Houston area and decided to take a weekend trip to Galveston. The bungalow was further from the beach than we anticipated. 6 minute walk. While it was as listed, it was the worst sleep. Even in February/March it was hot (maybe we didn’t know how to use the remote probably). Annoyed by these things already - our son had an accident on the couch and we tried to clean it. While we didn’t communicate properly so we take part blam

A nice getaway

This tiny house was exactly as posted, clean, neat, and with all you needed. An easy three minute walk took you to a clean beach that at least in December was basically empty except for fellow dog walkers. My dog and I really enjoyed our stay.

Thanksgiving Beach Getaway

My husband and our pug enjoyed two nights over the Thanksgiving holiday. This is such a cute house with everything you need to enjoy some much needed downtime. The walk to the beach was so enjoyable that we made it several times. The neighborhood is so pleasant and peaceful. Our host was very responsive and all of the instructions were easy and clear. The bed and the linens were so comfortable and the hot water in the shower, perfection. Nice touches throughout this terrific tiny beach house.

About the host

Hosted by Carmen Santangelo

Host profile image
We have been Texas residents for over 20 years and have always enjoyed our vacations in Galveston. We are beach lovers and we were excited when a tiny house became available on the West End 5 years ago. We both enjoy working on our beach house and exploring the Galveston area. We enjoy travel and spending time with our grandchildren.

Why they chose this property

Good Carma, Tiny Beach House has a great location. Located on the beach side of the San Luis Pass on the West End. You will have a very short 3 minute walk to the beach and you will enjoy the proximity to Galveston attractions. Put your feet up and enjoy the cool ocean breezes, a cold drink and a beautiful sunset.

What makes this property unique

This property is an efficiency style space, but we have equipped it with everything you would need for a relaxing beach vacation. Private location, onsite parking, patio with lighting and shed with bikes and beach equipment.
