About this property
Calming Seaside Sanctuary, pet friendly 2-blocks from beach
Feel confident in staying at our professionally-cleaned house while still being safe and making the most of your beach vacation! We are "BOI" (Born on the Island) and love showcasing the best things Galveston has to offer. We are less than 4 houses away from the best BBQ on the Island, and a quick walk to the Beach & best restaurants and nightlife.
The space - All queen-size mattresses with high quality sheets and duvets - Spa showers with rainheads - Original wood floors - Original shiplap - Original art from Texas artists - Curated ambient lighting (inside & out!) - Ceiling fans in every bedroom - Fully-loaded kitchen, including blender, popcorn maker (with kernels), ice cream maker for fun family memories - Gourmet coffee, flavored syrups, assortment of sweeteners and a dry milk for your first coffee - Extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and an assortment of herbs and spices - Beach Towels and Tent - 65" 4K smart TV - Comfortable leather sofa & armchair, perfect for Netflix - Queen-sized sofa bed - Fully enclosed yard
Guest access Please note that there is a separate garage apartment also located on the property- Breath Deep: Tiny Luxury Seaside Sanctuary. The garage (with access to the washer and dryer) is shared.
Other things to note Regarding your pets, we are also dog-owners and dog-lovers, and understand how nice it is to have your four-legged family members welcome, too.
We appreciate the La Quinta policy- all breeds, all sizes, no charges. We have tried to adopt the same policy, and ask that you help us maintain it by: (1) ensure your pets are flea-free, (2) make sure pets are up-to-date on vaccines, (3) keep the property in good shape, trying to keep the effects of shed to a minimum (i.e. no shedding pets on the sofa/bed if possible), (4) clean up poo, (5) respect other guests that may be staying in the garage apartment, and (6) do not leave dogs that cannot be left alone, do not bring dogs that must be crated unless you bring a crate or dogs that have aggression issues unless you will be with them at all times when others are present.
THAT SAID, IF YOU WANT TO BRING YOUR PET(S) WITH YOU, YOU MUST TELL US WHEN YOU BOOK. We need to let our cleaning service know. If you do not, EXTRA FEES WILL APPLY.
Across the street(ish) from Queen's BBQ, a 2 blocks to Brick House Tavern & Tap and Joe's Crab Shack. Not a fan of the National Chains? Not a problem, we love our local restaurants and bars too! Gumbo diner, Bronco Burritos, SHRIMP n' STUFF!!! All so close. With all the delicious seafood, how will you chose! And, of course, the MAIN attraction, the beach is a short 2 blocks where you can get your sun on and ride bikes along the seawall for some breathtaking views (and STELLAR people watching!!!) The Historic Galveston Island Pleasure Pier is less than a 1 mile away (a SUPER easy bike ride), and the Historic Strand (2.3 miles) for more delicious dining options and CANDY at La King's! The Galveston cruise terminal is less than 3 miles and Schlitterban/Moody Gardens, as is less than 4 miles away. Pro-Insider tip, for a good free time with your family, take a ride (in your car, or on a bike) out to the ferry terminal to Port Boliver in the evenings and take a free ferry ride (15 minutes each direction) over (and back) and watch the dolphins jumping up and around the bay. The kids will love it.
There is street parking available for free. There are a variety of bicycle sizes for you to use in the garage, and you're welcome to store your own bikes in the garage. Galveston has spent a significant amount of time and money putting in easy to use bike paths throughout the East end making it very bike-friendly. It's often quicker to get around on foot/bike than it is to get stuck in your car on the seawall. Plus, your body and earth will thank you!!!
