About this property
A Salty Air Retreat just steps away from the Gulf of Mexico
Come enjoy our newly constructed Salty Air Retreat featuring 2 bedrooms with 1 1/2 baths in the historical east end of Galveston. Just a leisurely 60 second walk to feel sand between your toes in Galveston’s beautiful beaches. You can watch a spectacular sunrise from our deck while the waves wash ashore, or enjoy seeing the evening moon rise. Our location is perfect for dining at one of the nearby restaurants that are in walking distance, or just taking a relaxing stroll on the beach.
Our brand new beach house features granite countertops, brand new stainless steel appliances, a dishwasher, a microwave, a 50 inch 4K smart tv with WiFi, a beautiful oversized shower (no tub), and a full-size washer and dryer. For your enjoyment, there is a large deck for you to enjoy your morning coffee brewed in a Keurig coffee maker. We also have beachchairs, beach towels, a small cooler, beach toys, and a pop up canopy to use on your beach outings, which can be conveniently transported with a wagon that we provide. Our house is on a corner lot which provides ample parking, with an outdoor shower for your convenience.
Let yourself in using our keyless entry lock system. Because we live in Galveston, we are only a text away. Please feel free to ask any questions or voice any concerns you may have. We will normally respond within the hour.
We have some amazing restaurants within walking distance. Our home is conveniently located to attractions like the Strand (1.5 mi) and the Pleasure Pier (1.2 mi). We are a block from the beach! Come enjoy our tropical paradise from this beautiful, comfortable, conveniently located home !!!
There are several rental shops nearby. You can rent bikes or golf carts for your enjoyment. There is also a trolley that stops about 3 blocks from our house that will take you just about anywhere on the island you would like to go.

About the host
Hosted by Kevin

My wife and I met here on the Island many moons ago and decided it would be a great place to set-up home base and raise a family. We love being around and in the water - when we're not surfing you will probably find us gardening are on a long walk meandering through a quiet Galveston neighborhood.
Why they chose this property
The Salty Air Retreat is located in a wonderful historic area of Galveston and is conveniently located a short walk to the beach (just one block!) as well as other wonderful restaurants and attractions.
