Vacation rentals in Galveston

The rental was great. The owners were super responsive and friendly. The place was just the right size for us and super clean. We spent lots of time on the cozy covered porch and enjoyed the breezy days and evenings. The short walk to the beach was easy and felt safe. We were glad we brought blankets because it got chilly! We would definitely stay again!

We had a great stay for a long weekend, over Easter, with our two young kids. Kathy was extremely communicative and provided easy instructions! We had no issues with check in. The place was extremely clean and had everything we needed. The beach was just a quick walk across the street. The pool was very loud, but the security guard was great about making sure people were quiet and out of the pool at 10pm. Overall a great value for a quick getaway. Lived up to all of my expectations! Thank you Kathy!

Stayed at this location before but not this condo. Owner responded quickly and had things already set up for us. We enjoyed the stay.

Stay was GREAT ! Me + 6 kids they absolutely loved it ! Close to the Ocean convient if you have toddlers . I like that location was off the main road so it was safe and secluded . Mary provided more than enough towels for my Full load . I will be returning soon . They also provided pool toys and a basketball and court for kids to play .. But most of ALL .. the Balcony in the bedroom and separate balcony for living room to watch the sunset was the BEST PART of my Stay !

Location, location, location. This was perfect for us to spend time in both Galveston and Freeport. The peace and privacy of this place were perfect. Just a few steps to the beach it was great. Melanie and Daryl

We had a great stay. The home itself was beautiful and indeed, right on the beach. Host was very responsive. The doorknob to the main entrance broke during our stay and was fixed immediately, which was impressive considering it was in the evening. I wish there were more supplies like extra toilet paper and trash bags so we didn't have to buy more, but this was a minor inconvenience. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay!

We went to Galveston for our daughter’s 7th Birthday and they had a cake, balloons and even a little gift for her set up when we arrived which was wonderful and unexpected, as I had asked for something small like balloons and they weren’t able to do anything. The housekeeper decided to go ahead and fix it all up which was sweet! House was within a block of the beach and they had some kids sand toys for the beach. The outside shower patio was not clean due to the tree over it (which was very cool). We just swept it off to use the shower coming back from the beach. Beds were comfortable, the living area seating was limited to a couch, side chair and two patio style chairs. Overall we enjoyed our visit and would definitely stay again!

Lovely beach stay. Beautiful sandy shore was wonderful for walks. Super friendly desk support for the condo facility. Johnny who greeted us was cheerful, gracious and shared great insights to the area. We had one question and Dana responded promptly with an answer. Condo was as described and we enjoyed relaxing there and appreciated the ease of access.

Very comfortable and clean place! Loved having the hot tub to relax in at the end of every night! Would definitely recommend!

I think the best way to describe this cottage is by describing what you can’t see in the pictures. 1. The beds are amazingly comfortable. 2. Ever have a problem with sleeping in during vacations bc of the light flooding into rooms at sunrise? Not here. The king room doesn’t have a window🩷. I am adding this in here because I know that so many will appreciate this feature. 3. The backyard is truly a den of privacy. The most skittish dog will feel comfortable & there are no neighboring dogs to amp up their anxiety. 4. The location! During our stay, I let my oldest teenager walk to the beach by herself in the morning. She felt safe at all times, and didn’t tire easily. 5. The plants! While you can see the beautiful, well kept lawn…you have to experience it to see the butterflies linger and flutter about. Bottom line- if you are on the fence about this place…go for it. I have never been so impressed with a stay (hotels included), in all of my years adulting.

We had a great stay! The house was well equipped for our needs with lots of little “extras”. The laundry room had lots of beach related items which was so convenient and saved us money! Our daughter enjoyed making her first sand castle with the beach being only a 5 min walk. The neighborhood was quiet and we felt comfortable there. Queens bbq next door plays music outside during the day but it wasn’t too loud and they turned it off pretty early since it did not affect our little one’s early bedtime. Alex and Tony were very responsive and accommodating. We would stay here again for our next visit!

We enjoyed our stay at A Beach Away. The beach was one block - easily walkable. The house was clean and instructions were clear, and the bedrooms/bathrooms configuration worked well for our purposes. The large kitchen and bar had everything we needed and was open to the living and dining areas allowing everyone to hang out together. The view from the porch and first floor was as good as could be expected from a block back at the beach. The first floor bedroom lacks a closet, but who needs hanging clothes at the beach anyway? Bring your own games/books in case it rains. Overall an enjoyable stay offered by a responsive host. Thanks Shawn!

The place was amazing! love how they constructed the building to accommodate for a B&B! Very clean! We attended the Mardi Gras parade. considering the party weekend it was quiet! Affordable "everything was so high priced fir the weekend" Great location with easy access to the seawall right down the street and harbor the other direction! Brought the doggie with us and she seamed to be right at home! I was mindfull when letting her out that they have a dog grooming place next door. no Issue there, she had a good time sniffing around the area. I will for sure look into staying here again! I may never stay in a hotel again!

Great house steps from the beach. Something to note if traveling with a group the upstairs is a loft and the noise from the kids room upstairs travels. Host was friendly and helpful. A couple of minor issues that would make it a nicer stay but overall great for our family getaway.

Our stay was great and we would come here again. The hosts are quick to respond and the home was very clean and just as described. Staying on the canal is great with the beach nearby for daily trips. Thank you for a great spring break getaway!

We were really impressed by the place. I loved how the yards were enclosed and felt safe my dog wouldn’t find an opening to escape from 😅. I loved how pet friendly the place was. There were bowls, beds, and even treats ready in case you forgot them at home. The place really was walkable to pleasure pier, chick fil a, and the gift shop Murdochs.

home is beautiful comfortable and walking distance to the beach neighborhood where nice waving, speaking and the ferry ride was awesome can see dolphins in the water when in the ferry going and going to Galveston

We had a great time, and loved every minute staying at this place. Lots of fun activities. Kids (ages 5 to 11) has a great time kayaking, biking, and did a ton of fishing and crabbing right off the dock. Caught a ton of fish and loved it. Beaches were close by and easy to get to. Kinda pricey, but it was worth it to be honest, because one of our excursions got cancelled due to weather, so it was really nice to stay at the house with so many other activities to do. Will definitely come back to this place.

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. Gloria was super friendly and very fast to respond to my questions before check in. Everything was absolutely wonderful, and I had no reason to contact her after we checked in!!

Unlike many Air BnBs today, their place felt like a home. It was stocked with essentials and decorated very cute! Laura was extremely responsive and helpful. The fact that each bedroom had its own bathroom was incredible and very unique to many rentals. Very close to the beach, and just around the corner from the largest grocery stop on Bolivar Peninsula made it a great location! The beach itself was pretty crowded compared to other places we’ve stayed, but it still wasn’t like a crowded beach in other states where people are piled up rows away from the water. Every group on the beach still had a section of water in front of them that was their own oasis. Overall, we would definitely book again!

Our stay was amazing! The instructions made everything easier, for security the alarm was great for leaving our belongings when we went out. The house was extremely clean with a lot of space. The host was very friendly and responded to us each time we messaged. We were able to enjoy our trip with enough space for our family and dogs. Highly recommend staying here and we will stay again in the future.

A great, beautiful place. Ike and Kelly were very friendly, helpful, and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend their place.

The house was easy to find and very comfortable. We will definitely stay again and recommend this house.

I really loved the location, still on the water but quiet and away from the hub bub. I would absolutely stay here again. The hosts were wonderful too!
