Galveston House | Beach Side Cottage.One Minute Walk to the Beach

2 Bedroom House in Galveston

This charming beach side cottage sits on a lot just 1/2 a block from the beach. I have had the great fortune to have owned the house for the past 30 years. We have always walked to the beach, never have taken a car. We are that close. Our street actually dead ends at the beach. So it feels very private and great for kids because there is very little traffic and no streets to cross to get to the water. We are in the Palm Beach Subdivision which is one of the Islands older beach side communities. There are many beautiful new homes in our sub division but doted through out are the original beach cottages built in the 1960's with lots of Old Galveston charm. We are one of those original cottages. We are on the west end of the island only 8 miles from the main drag. Only a 10 minute ride to all the restaurants and attractions but far enough away to enjoy a quiet retreat with beautiful (not so crowded) beaches. The house has a large front balcony with a view of the water which provides lots of outdoor space for sun bathing, star gazing, and of course the ocean view. There is always plenty of shade and a cool breeze on the first level perfect for outdoor barbecues and just relaxing. This house is a two bedroom, one bath. But there is also a downstairs shower with hot and cold water. Upstairs you'll find a kitchen with plenty of room, lots of seating and a view of the water. A spacious spot for everyone to hang out. And high ceilings make the rooms feel even larger. The kitchen has french doors that open on to the front balcony. Of course the kitchen is fully furnished with everything you will need for your family get away. The two bedrooms each have a queen size bed and the large living room has 3 day beds for extra quests. This house comfortably accommodates 2 couples and 3 or 4 children. Sheets and towels are included .We are pet friendly and only a $25.00 fee for each pet per stay. You will enjoy this house. It is very comfortable. It has character and charm and best of all it is close to the water. We would love for you to stay.

Summary: We had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend stay at this Galveston beach rental! The house was clean, spacious, and perfectly located near the shore, making our beach days a breeze. The amenities were top-notch, and the cozy vibe made it feel like a home away from home. The host was responsive and ensured everything went smoothly. We’re already looking forward to our next trip back! Highly recommend!

Summary: The outside chairs were broken/uncomfortable so didn’t really sit out enjoying the sound and waves. Shower is not for anyone over 5’3, non removable shower head. The living room floor was a 3” drop/stepup from every room. Not being used to stepping up into every room when leaving living room, we tripped multiple times. Once I tripped and fell into the bedroom. The beds were uncomfortable. If the air conditioner hadn’t been so good, we would have requested refund and looked elsewhere.

Summary: Our trip went off without any issues. We all had a wonderful time and the sad part was simply having to leave. The beach was right there! It was clean and well kept. Mostly everything we needed was there for us. This trip was a very rewarding experience.

Summary: If you remember Galveston beach houses from your childhood then this one fits the bill. Plenty of space to spread out and be comfortable. It’s charming, comfortable and close to the beach. The microwave didn’t work but that was our only complaint.

Summary: Great location by the beach within walking distance. The place was clean and tidy. A great place for a couple and 2 small dogs. Only thing would say is the A.C. could not keep up during the day, so it was little warm. Had to have fans and standing fans going. Overall it was a wonderful stay. We would atay again.
