Sunny Beachside Bungalow #12 Steps from the Sand in Galveston

Welcome to Galveston Bungalow #12, your family's home away from home on the quiet west end of Galveston Island. Perfectly located just across the street from the beach, this inviting coastal retreat makes it easy to spend your days building sandcastles, splashing in the waves, and soaking up the sun together. Designed with families in mind, this home features 3 comfortable bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, giving everyone space to relax and unwind. The spacious living room is perfect for movie nights, board games, or simply spending quality time together after a day at the beach. The fully equipped kitchen makes mealtime easy—whether you're cooking family favorites or quick snacks for the kids. One of the highlights of the home is the beach-facing balcony, where you can sip your morning coffee while watching the waves or wind down in the evening with a coastal breeze and sunset views. Located on the peaceful west end, you'll enjoy a quieter, more laid-back beach experience while still being just about 30 minutes from town for dining, shopping, and attractions. GVR16215

Great Family Get Away

We stayed here for a few days and it was perfect for our needs. We had two families with 2-3 kiddos and we all had a great time. The addition of a golf cart made the trip to the beach much easier even though it is just a short walk across the street. We even added a day last minute and the addition was easily done with no problems. We would/will stay here again for sure!!

The Perfect Beach Getaway!

The bungalow was perfect. It was located right across from the beach with easy access and beautiful views. The house was beautiful and laid out perfectly for our large family. The landlord was super friendly and quick to respond to any needs we had. We rented a golf cart which made going to the beach so much easier than lugging everything over. I highly recommend Bungalow Beach and we plan on being back again!

Nice stay!

We had a great time with plenty of room. And it rained the majority of the time. There is quite a bit of traffic on this road but we used a golf cart to get back and forth from house to beach. That was great. Beach was clean Avery crowded.

Great Beach Rental

We love the golf cart bundle with the beach house. The house was very clean and had a very informative resourceful binder. The house has good A/C, especially by the beach! There were plenty of towels and household supplies. It was a nice stay and we’ll do it again!

Awesome place!

We stayed here over the Memorial Day weekend, and this place was awesome. I know they have been open for a bit but when we walked in it looked brand new, like we were the first to stay there. The place was very clean and very spacious for the 7 of us that were there over the weekend. we enjoyed being able to sit out on the front and the rear balconies. Its 25 minutes from the main part of the island, but we enjoyed the fact that it was not all crowed and there is a dollar general 10-12 min up the road if you need anything last min. The golf cart was a huge plus as we used it to go over to the beach a few times. If you are looking for a place to stay that feels like home and is in a quiet area i highly suggest staying here, you will not be disappointed. I know we will defiantly be back.
