Nestled in the vibrant city center of Galveston, this light-filled home brings coastal living to your front door! Amidst the palms, explore the city's very best while visiting the Galveston Railroad Museum, The Grand 1894 Opera House, Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier, Moody Gardens, Magic Carpet Golf, and Galveston Island State Park. On days that you don't want to go too far, simply enjoy the sunshine and good company from the comfort of the home's deck, furnished with Adirondack chairs.

Inside, the open interior displays the perfect mix of modern convenience and tropical charm. The living room's soft sofa and smart TV pair excellently for movie viewing. The adjacent full kitchen radiantly gleams with its granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. After enjoying a delicious meal, head for the Air Hockey table for hours of playful competition.

Gorgeously decorated, the primary bedroom boasts gold finishes, soft furnishings, and an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower. The additional four bedrooms are just as impressive, all complete with high-quality linens and nautical-inspired color palettes. The interior amenities extend to a private washer/dryer, central air-conditioning, and internet access.

End another evening in paradise outside, firing up the gas grill for a cookout, and letting the furry members of your family stretch their legs in the enclosed yard.

Mardi Gras 2024
The house was great. The only complaint was the shower in the downstairs bathroom had no water pressure and the bathtub had only hot water no cold. The house was clean and spacious. We had 9 adults and a toddler. Everyone had plenty of room. Location was perfect for the Mardi Gras weekend. Close to all the festivities. Would definitely stay here again.

Great Weekend
We spent this past weekend at this home for an Ironman event. We had friends stay with us and enjoyed the weekend. The place was open and clean. Within walking distance many shopping areas like the Stand and to restauraunts. We have enjoyed staying on Vacasa properties the last couple of visits.

Great for big groups!
Pros: - Comfortably fit a large group there were lots of beds - 3 full bathrooms made it easy for multiple people to get ready at the same time - The home was well furbished and decorated. - Walking distance away from the strand with lots of restaurants and bars Cons: - The shower head in the master bedroom definitely needs to be replaced. It wasn’t usable with the amount of water that was coming out. - We tried to cook dinner at the house one night and even brought some of our own kitchen stuff but had to make trips to the store to get more necessities because there isn’t too much cookware provided. - There’s a large cruise parking lot directly across the street and very active with cruise goers parking there in the mornings. - The beds were all very firm but that’s a personal preference.

Great stay!
Came in with family to enjoy Moody Gardens. Beautiful property with plenty of room. Beds super comfortable and home was spotless! The ice hockey table kept the teenagers and adults in competition! Would definitely stay here again if ever back this way.
