3. Classic balcony suite for four guests in Grand Manor Mansion (from USD 88)
As someone who enjoys learning more about history, one of my favorite stay options has to be this southern tropical mansion that has been around since 1905, full of memorabilia. Grand Manor gives four guests access to a large luxury balcony suite best for travelers who are out in Texas for a sweet escape from the city. The classic interiors and midcentury touches bring character to the place, including an impressive clawfoot tub.
Other amenities include a swanky and equipped kitchen with marble countertops, indoor fireplace, Wifi, cable TV, air conditioning, bathroom essentials, and free parking on the premises. There is also a lovely patio and balcony guests can spend early mornings and late nights with coffee or a glass of wine in hand.
Indeed, Grand Manor is perfect for small families, groups of friends, and couples who wish to experience lux living away from their busy city lives at home. But you won’t be too far from the action either, as the home is only two blocks from various harbor side clubs and dining outlets. The beach is also a short walk away, as is the famous downtown Galveston Strand. In fact, the best part about this property is that you won’t need transportation to get to most places in the downtown area. However, should you wish to go further, the city’s free trolley shuttle service is at the end of the street.

5. Private room in a historic mansion (from USD 159)
Just a short seven-block walk from Pleasure Pier, this tastefully decorated suite is a dreamy couples’ getaway in Galveston. The artwork lining the walls is a great touch that I personally love. The one-bedroom unit is in the historic Charles W. Adams Mansion, which was built in the mid-19th century. The room features antique decor and furniture in keeping with the mansion’s overall appearance, and the king-size bed is on a four-poster frame. The suite also comes with a mini-fridge and a coffee machine.
Guests of this elegant rental will have access to other home amenities, such as the spacious balcony, backyard with patio, library, dining area, and the pink ladies’ parlor. Spend your time walking through the rose garden or take the provided beach towels and head to the shore.

The home sleeps up to 16 people if the first floor is utilized. The four beds upstairs can sleep seven.

18. Adventurous boat life (85 USD)
This Airbnb boat may not have the glitz and glamour of upscale sailboat listings, but the experience will make it a fun stay with your family. Fall asleep to the rhythm of the gently rocking seas, and watch cruises, boats, and fishermen pass across your view of the bay in the day. Dolphins often follow these boats so its good to watch out for them too. The Airbnb boat sleeps 4 in 3 onboard sleeping areas. It’s near amenities and a pool so you can relax and enjoy your endless, seaside summer days here.
Lively, lovely Galveston

You could be a family looking for some theme parks to enjoy or a nice family resort to stay in, a few friends on a holiday shopping spree, going solo while checking out a popular festival, or even a couple looking for some seaside privacy, Galveston has options for all of you.
