Step inside to a sunlit living area where the kitchen, dining space, and lounge flow together with ease. It’s a comfortable spot to unwind after exploring the island, and the sofa folds out into a full-size bed for extra guests.
Down the hall, the primary bedroom features a king bed and private en suite bathroom, a quiet hideaway after a day by the water. The second bedroom offers a twin-over-full bunk, perfect for families or friends traveling together. A second full bathroom sits just off the hallway for convenience.
Outside, unwind on either of two porches — a cozy covered front porch for morning coffee, and a slightly larger back porch that feels made for relaxed evenings and good conversation.
Beneath the home, the outdoor entertaining area adds something special. With swings, a large dining space, and a grill, it’s open to the island breeze yet framed by slatted walls that create a sense of privacy and soft light. It’s the kind of spot where guests linger long after sunset.
Galveston Boutique Getaway blends comfort and style with a touch of local charm — a space that feels both connected and quietly your own.

We did not receive what we booked. There was only one functioning shower and we paid for two. We notified the host that the shower rod was broken within the first 24 hours and received no response. In addition, the shower curtain in the broken shower had a discolored growth on it and there was debris and hair on the bathroom shelving and overall unclean conditions. Note: The washer/dryer single unit took up to 5 hours to wash & dry one load of laundry. The advertised outdoor grill was rusty and unusable. There was broken furniture.We emailed them a second time and had no response again. Called the management company and sent pictures identifying the problems.We booked a three week stay and notified the host we were uncomfortable with the situation and were checking out after one week. We asked for some financial relief - they did nothing - stating WE did not let them in to remedy these issues. We did not control access and they never contacted us about any of our concerns. Just a bad situation that ruined part of our vacation...
