Trip to remember
I really can’t say enough positive things about this home, the host, and experience. Host was helpful on all fronts checking in and checking out and anything that came our way in between. Kids loved being so close to the beach and the views from the deck as well as the living room were very enjoyable. I have family who lives in Houston so we visit often and this will be our reoccurring spot and home for sure!

Wonderful Vacation
Beautiful home just a short walk to the beach! Hosts were gracious and prompt when answering any questions we had before check-in. Very clean and stocked with everything we needed. Proximity to the beach allowed each of us to come and go easily for sunrise walks, afternoon snacks, and breaks from the heat. So thankful for such a great place to stay during our vacation!

An amazingly convenient location for beach access
This house was perfect for our group of 10! We had 2 separate family units vacationing together so the separate downstairs space was perfect. Being able to walk to the beach and, even more importantly, make a quick trip back if necessary made a huge difference with so many kids. Especially with the excessive heat while we were there, if one kid needed a break, it didn’t mean the whole group had to pack up and leave. The house itself was wonderful and exactly as expected. We had no issues that needed to be addressed, but our hosts made it clear they would be available if necessary.

Perfect for a family gathering!
Our family of ten (2 grandparents, 4 parents, 4 children) loved spending a long weekend here. The location is amazing - a 2-minute walk to the beach. The house is very clean and has all the kitchen implements we could ever need to cook meals at home. The owners were incredibly responsive and gracious. And the deck views and ocean breeze create a perfect atmosphere to relax and enjoy the sunset.

Multiple small groups for dance
There is enough room for everyone to have space, we had 8 total overnight with 5 teenage girls. There was never a time we felt crowded. Beach access is about a minute walk away, convenient stores and restaurants are across the street. The location is perfect to access Galveston quick and easy, with the quiet of being away from the city for the evening hours with stars in the sky and waves in the background! Very enjoyable, hope to stay again soon!

About the host

Hosted by Tom or Gen Kelly

Host profile image

We are a military family with roots in many places but have settled in San Antonio, Texas to be close to family. We love to spend our down time in Galveston and have been doing so since 2007. Not much has changed here, it is still a very friendly and family oriented beach and city. It is also one of the cleanest places we have visited. We enjoy everything Galveston has to offer and hope to one day be able to spend more of our time here. Meanwhile, we want to share the joy we have in our home with others. Please contact us if there are any special needs you might have or any questions you need answered, you will find we are very welcoming family.


Why they chose this property


We had visited Galveston after our families first separation from a deployment to Afghanistan in 2007. The time we had there to reunite, reintegrate and rejuvenate was the best. We found it only natural that Galveston would become our families favorite place to reconnect and sometimes heal from all that life has to bring over the years. It was on these trips that our desire to find a home here was born. But finding a home for us wasn’t the only intent.

As a military family we have seen much during our time of service. We have encountered other families or individuals who struggle with military life and all that it brings with deployments, war, injury and separation from generational families. We have also served with members from church clergy who also struggled with their issues that their jobs bring in taking care of people. We decided that if we could find a home we could share with other families and friends maybe it would give them a place to retreat and reunite, a place where wounded warriors could find respite for themselves and their family and a place we could provide for priests or pastors to reinvigorate themselves to continue to serve; what an awesome gift we could have to share with them. A home that will allow us to make more memories for ourselves and a place for our friends to rest and enjoy there time together.

What makes this property unique

What makes our home unique is that you get all the benefits of being steps from the beach without the huge expense of it. We may not have direct beachfront views but this home met all our requirements we had set learning as we traveled to Galveston over the years. We wanted a home that was steps from the beach, had views, good size rooms with comfortable beds, had room for at least 8, a nice deck to sit and relax, full size washer & dryer, a full size kitchen, close to conveniences because we always forgot something & a short drive to get to all the fun Galveston has to offer downtown & at Pleasure Pier. We think you'll enjoy our home as much as we do. Come and stay awhile.
