Private Home - 2 Living Areas, 4 Decks, Short Walk to Beach, 9 Miles to Downtown
Welcome to Wings and Waves! This luxurious Beachside Village getaway is ready to welcome up to 14 of your loved ones for a well-deserved vacation. Enjoy 2 levels of decks, 2 living areas, a spacious interior, short neighborhood stroll to the beach, and easy breezy drive to Historic Downtown Galveston!
Custom touches & contemporary décor are found throughout. The large sectional and comfortable furnishings invite you to curl up in front of the TV after a long day of fun in the sun with family & friends. The fully-equipped kitchen is a chef’s dream with stainless steel appliances, a double oven, gas range, and abundant storage & counter space. Get the whole group in on the kitchen action - meals taste better made together!
After a day full of fun together, you’ll appreciate having your own retreat to really unwind. The upper level primary king suite has a seating area, perfect for reading before bed. The covered deck is made for lazy vacation mornings, and the spa-like en suite bathroom boasts double vanities, an oversized walk-in shower, and a large soaking tub.
Upstairs, both queen bedrooms open out onto decks. The built-in pyramid bunk room is great for kids or teens - who will also love morning cartoons or movie nights in the nearby 2nd living area. The 5th bedroom is back on the main level, with a comfy king bed, deck access and walk-in shower in the en suite bathroom.
Wings and Waves is only a block from the sand & surf, so it’s easy to split your day up between swimming, sunning & grilling. The shaded ground level patio has an enclosed outdoor shower, picnic table and charcoal grill. There’s also a dining table on the main level deck, perfect for meals al fresco.
Explore all that Galveston has to offer - on the beach and in the town. Stroll through the neighborhood and hit the sand, or enjoy a scenic drive to the heart of Historic Downtown!

End of summer vaca
Best friends coming together with our families before school starts. Great location - short walk to a not so crowded beach. Very accommodating place with plenty of room for 13 of us to relax, eat, visit etc.. never felt we were on top of each other. Great layout.
