Casa Pelicano

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Enjoy Gulf views await at Casa Pelicano, a beautifully updated townhouse. Enjoy lovely vistas from two private balconies and relax amid the fresh coastal breeze. Both bedrooms feature direct access to the covered lower-level balcony. Located near popular Karankawa Beach, this property promises a memorable stay chock-full of fun, sun, surf, and sand. Karankawa Beach is a quiet beach that has restricted cars from driving on the beach leaving it tranquil.

Tastefully renovated, this vacation home offers two levels of living space, detailed with charming beach decor, hardwood floors, high ceilings, and modern furnishings. Spend time together in the second-level living area, furnished with two leather sofas, a plush armchair, and a 55-inch TV. Before hitting the beach, prepare a tasty picnic in the modern kitchen equipped with a full suite of appliances. Helpful gadgets include a Keurig machine, blender, and toaster. You’ll also find plenty of dining space. Sip morning coffee at the breakfast nook, keep the chef in your group company at the kitchen bar, and enjoy your meals at the dining table. Extra perks include complimentary WiFi, beach gear, a Pack ‘n Play, and a washer/dryer.

Each floor includes a private balcony with alfresco dining. Cook dinner on the provided grill and savor your meal while enjoying the fantastic weather. An outdoor shower provides a handy spot to rinse off after a sun-soaked day at the beach. Then relax on the breezy porch swing on the ground floor.

Your vacation rental commands a prime location within a quick walk of the glittering Gulf. Spend leisurely afternoons beachside, swimming and soaking up some feel-good Vitamin D. Or spend an exciting day riding water slides at Schlitterbahn -- a 16-minute drive away. To experience a 242-acre amusement park with an aquarium, zipline, and paddlewheel boat, drive 20 minutes to Moody Gardens. You'll also find Seven Seas Grocery and Nate’s West End Restaurant next door.

Good experience

Location was perfect to head to the beach. Quiet and calm beach. Many frogs, toads, rabbits around the condo, and many small crabs to find in the ocean. Wagon was a treat to be able to bring to the beach.

Good Stay

The condo is close to the beach with an easy walk. The furniture and beds are comfy and clean. The beach toys, wagon, canopy, and chairs were all in good shape. The grill was rusty and could not be used.

Great stay in a quiet location

The beach facing two decks are a game changer for those who wish to stay out of the direct sunlight. Cozy and charming decorating assure you will enjoy your stay. Easy access and secure environment just steps away from two beach access points near friendly residents. Lots to see and do in near by Galveston, this location will provide the peaceful, relaxing retreat you are looking for.

Great location & space

Enjoyed the stay, the walk to the beach is perfect, the house was clean & comfortable. Only downfall is that the tv in the kids room (2 bunkbed room) did not work. It's only a DVD in the tv and it wouldn't even play.

Great House !

Loved the house. Great view of the ocean, very easy walk to the secluded (almost private) beach. Really enjoyed the house and our stay. Only negative was a lot of mosquitoes in the grassy area around the building, but this is obviously not controlled by the homeowner (and may have been a temporary situation caused by the recent Alberto storm?).

Beautiful weekend

We're a family of 5 with a little dog. We spent the labor day weekend in the house. You'll find everything you need there! Clean house, comfortable beds. Even beach toys for the kids! The house has a beautiful view! And you're less than 5min away walking from the beach.

Great location and easy beach access

The best thing about this rental is the location — it’s an easy drive into Galveston and since there’s no car or public access, it’s quiet, uncrowded and family-friendly. Beach access from the condo is via a grass/sand trail that goes along the east side of the complex. The unit itself is OK, but it really needs a deep clean, fresh paint, and a new fridge.
