The Texas sun shines effortlessly on this multi-story Galveston home! As part of the Sea Isle community, enjoy indulging in a variety of shared amenities such as; an outdoor pool, children's pool, and year-round tennis courts. Less than 13 miles away from your stay, explore Jamaica Beach City Park, Kelly Hamby Nature Trail Park, and Galveston Island State Park.

Inside your home away from home, beach chic meets modern comfort. The sunlit living room comes adorned with ample seating, a large TV, and effortless deck access. When mealtime rolls around, head for the bright full kitchen equipped with a cheerful, turquoise backsplash, updated appliances, and a breakfast bar.

The charming bedrooms are places of pure peace with their inviting color palettes, carefully curated furnishings, and cool temperatures - thanks to the home's central air-conditioning.

Downstairs, the family room provides a great additional spot for the kids to tune into their weekend morning cartoons. The separate laundry room is another perk to the home's interior, ensuring chore time is the least of your concerns.

Outside, gather on the covered patio and fire up the gas grill to host a sweet summer barbecue. Your island dreams await, book now!

    We came back because we just love it here! The layout allows all the teenagers to stay down stairs and me and my husband stay upstairs. Always meticulously clean! Great house!

    Everything was so cute and cozy. It really felt like a vacation as soon as we walked in the door. I loved that there was a place for all the bags we brought. The organization was thought through well! The bay, beach, restaurant, park, convenient store are all within walking distance. It is a great location. There is plenty to do in the neighborhood or you can stay in and enjoy the sweet house.
