Perfect location

This property has a perfect location. Just a 20 second walk to the beach, just far enough away from the crowded tourist areas of Galveston, so you can relax. The house is very clean and comfortable. The hosts were very nice and easy to communicate with. Would 100% stay again.

This is our second time to stay at this property and we love it. The house isn't huge, but it's got fantastic views and is only 1 house away from the beach. The porch is gigantic and everything is well-maintained. We hope to be back again!

Wonderful place

We had a great time at this property. The location is perfect, very close to the beach, takes 45 seconds to get on the sand. The deck is huge with wonderful beach view. The house was clean and well maintained, we had everything we needed. The area with trundle bed was great, it serves as extra room for kids. The communication with the owner was extremely easy. We hope to be back again!

Perfect location! Great getaway

Our family has traveled to Galveston numerous times. A must have for this trip was to have an amazing view of the Gulf with easy access to the beach. This place met this and much more! STEPS from the beach. Amazing views. Comfortable and cozy home. All we needed to getaway and spend downtime with our family. This is perfect for families as you can go back and forth to the beach without ALL the hassle! And no crowded beach! Such a great getaway and just what our spirits needed!

Close to beach

Great location and a beautiful deck with nice view. You are just one house away from the beach, but still have a view! For families, there is no bathtub and the bunk beds aren't in a room - so your kids may wake early. Owners are very responsive.

Excellent location, perfect for a family trip

I stayed here with my husband, 2 kids and mother in law over the 4th of July. The pictures don’t do the house justice! It’s clean, bright, very functional and in an outstanding location for a family trip on the beach. It’s a bit of a drive to the more touristy part of Galveston, with Moody Gardens, Seawall, pleasure pier, etc but it was perfect for what we wanted, which was a quiet, safe area close to the beach. The deck is incredible, breezy, and comfortable. The owner was quick to respond to questions leading up to the trip. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

About the host

Hosted by Tanya & Matthew Nguyen

Host profile image
We bought this house shortly after Hurricane IKE in 2009. The construction project to renovate this house was long and costly but we absolutely fell in love with our new beach house and would do it again. The neighborhood is quiet and a perfect place to get away from it all.

Why they chose this property

Why did we buy this house? Our initial intention was to help rebuild Galveston after the devastation of Hurricane IKE. The spontaneous decision transformed into a lot of hard work of clean ups, restorations, and rebuildings.

What makes this property unique

This is no doubt a perfect house to get away from it all. Surrounded by the ocean waves and sea breeze. A quiet neighborhood where neighbors take time to wave hello at crossing on the beach or passing by as you are sitting on the deck.
