A short distance from sailing, surfing, and more, this beach cottage lets you experience it all. There's convenient onsite parking, so you can leave your vehicle behind and let your feet make short work of the 1-minute walk to Jamaica Beach or the 10-minute walk to Galveston Island State Park Beach.

After you return, you can unwind at the beach, chill by the outdoor pool, or sip a drink on the balcony. For a change of scenery, come inside and enjoy the free WiFi, TV, and library.

A living room, a dining area, a fireplace, and air conditioning are featured at this 5-bedroom, 5-bathroom rental. The kitchen is equipped with an oven, a stovetop, and a dishwasher, as well as an ice maker, a microwave, and cookware. And because there's a dryer, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
