All the great restaurants are within walking distance. Roll your beach wagon and boogie boards right from the front steps of your home to the beach.

We’ve stayed in many homes over the yearly visits here, but this was by far my favorite location wise. You can see the pleasure pier just down the street and can easily walk to the beach in a few minutes. The house had everything basic we needed and a little yard for my dog to use the bathroom easily and conveniently. Would definitely stay again!
Very comfortable and welcoming with charming decor. It truly is only about 3 short blocks to the beach with nearby dining, ice cream, & entertainment options. The kitchen was well-equipped for cooking and we made appreciative use of the washer & dryer. Our dog loved the fenced in yard - so wonderful to drink coffee on the front porch watching her wander around sniffing & sunbathing. Evan responded within minutes every time. A minor maintenance glitch was fixed within 15 minutes. The house was a wonderful home base for the beach life and all that Galveston has to offer.
Great location easy access to Pier and Seawall. Perfect for me and brother with the two bedrooms. I would totally recommend over staying in an area hotel. Communication with property management is excellent.
This cute little house is within walking distance to the beach and pleasure pier! It was comfortable for a family of four and the owner’s are super responsive and accommodating. Would recommend!
We had so much fun , house was so cute and comfortable. We loved being at the beach and the fact that it’s only a short walk from the house made it amazing. Would love to stay here again in the future.
We had an amazing stay. The house is very charming. The front door code wouldn't work when we first arrived but the owners were very fast to fix it. Pleasure Pier was a 5 min walk and that sure beat paying 15 to park. The AC works great and the front deck is a great upgrade. Would definitely rent again.
This was a cute little house very close to the beach, Pleasure Pier, and several restaurants. The owner provided excellent communication. I would stay again!
Loved this place. It was conveniently located near every place we needed to go. Very close walk to the seawall and pleasure pier. Each morning we went out for a run along the seawall. The property owner was very responsive to messages/questions.
We stayed here for a long weekend and enjoyed the beach. It was as just a short walk and super convenient to get the Pleasure Pier area by foot and not have to worry about parking. The house was cute with everything we needed. Host tried to let us check in early but we didn’t end up needing to. Would book again!
