About the host

Hosted by La Shaun Fontenot

Host profile image
I am a native Galvestonian or as we like to say BOI (Born on Island)! I love my hometown and enjoy driving down the seawall with my windows down and eating seafood from some of my favorite spots. I enjoy hosting because I want others to enjoy my hometown as much as I do!

Why they chose this property

I chose Cove View because it's away from the hustle and bustle of the beach. You can go out and enjoy yourself and come back to a serene environment. Our neighborhood is quite and off of the beaten path.

What makes this property unique

Our property is child friendly and offer amenities such as outside grilling and a glistening pool!
