Beachfront 8th floor Studio - Stunning View
Summary:
A breathtaking view of the beach greets you as you open the door to this 8th floor studio. You can hear the lapping of the waves from the balcony and feel the Gulf breeze. Direct beach access is about a 2 minute walk from the building via a raised wooden walking path. No vehicles on the beach so you can enjoy peaceful walks along the seashore and let the stress melt away. Conveniently located. Heated pool! Lots of amenities!
The Space:
416 sf studio condo located on the 8th floor. Faces the beach. Short walk over a raised, wooden path to the beach. No busy street to cross. No vehicles are allowed on the beach.
High speed WiFi and designated workspace.
Washer/dryer located on ground level (pay via app).
PTAC (Packaged Terminal A/C & Heat)
1 queen size bed and 1 sofa that folds into a queen bed which is best suited for 2 small children or 1 teenager/adult.
The center portion of white mirrored furniture pictured offers a place to hang clothes and the narrow cabinet on the right offers space to store clothes/groceries. The left side of mirrored cabinet stores extra towels/pillows and beach towels.
There is an interior latch on the storm door to provide extra privacy.
Guest Access:
Full access of the condo. Access to the resort's grounds including use of heated pool, fire pit, Pickleball, Tennis and Basketball Courts, Bocce Ball, BBQ grills, picnic tables on covered patio, large grassy area, wooden,/raised path that leads directly to the beach, vending machines and laundry room (pay via app).
The condo complex is gated and has exterior lighting and cameras.
The Neighborhood:
This studio condo is located at Islander East Resort on the 8th floor. It overlooks East Beach which does not allow vehicles. Peaceful and quiet beach area. Gated and well-lit condo complex.
Galveston is known as one of the most charming beach towns along with coast. In addition to the famous 32 miles of sandy shores, it offers fascinating historic architecture, beautiful Victorian style homes with a New Orleans flare, the 1892 Bishop's Palace available for touring, an array of restaurants from open air, casual to upscale plus Pleasure Pier where there are rides, games and souvenirs and Moody Gardens with an impressive lazy river, aquarium and rainforest. Enjoy a romantic evening with dinner aboard the Colonel Paddlewheel Boat, a sunset cruise of the harbor or visit the Historical Seaport and Pier 22 where you can tour the 1877 Tall Ship, Elissa.
Looking for more action, try the jet boat thrill ride offered by Galveston Water Adventures where you can experience the famous “Hamilton Spin” that creates a high wall of water sure to get each passenger soaked. Stroll through the Historical Strand District making a stop at The Tremont Hotel for a visit to the Rooftop Bar for a spectacular view of the city and the harbor or catch a ride on a horse-drawn carriage. Rent a golf cart and cruise the seawall to 61st! There is truly something for everyone here.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Mayvic McCloskey

We grew up in Corpus Christi, TX and now live in Rockport, TX. We love being on and near the water. We chose this Galveston condo because of the magnificent view and quick access to a beach where vehicles are not allowed. We also manage another condo on Galveston Island, one on North Padre Island and an apartment/suite in Rockport so if you would like to explore more of the Texas Coast message us for more info.
Why they chose this property
This property has a breathtaking view of the Gulf of Mexico. It is only a 3-4 minute walk across a wooden path/bridge to have access to East Beach. No vehicles are allowed on the beach which makes it more enjoyable and peaceful than some of the other options on the island. No smoking is allowed in the condo or on the balcony.
What makes this property unique
Gorgeous unobstructed view of the Gulf. 3-4 minute walk to the beach. No vehicles are allowed on the beach.
