Galveston Beach House Rentals
A Galveston beach house is the difference between a trip and a memory. Instead of a hotel room, you get the whole house: the deck, the kitchen, the bunk room for the kids, and the sand a short walk away. Our beach houses sit in the gated Grand Beach community on the east end of the island, near Stewart Beach, where the lots are wide and the Gulf is right there.
We're Anna and Tetiana, a mom-and-daughter team, and we manage every one of these homes ourselves. When you book direct through us instead of Airbnb or VRBO, you skip the platform's guest service fee, which is usually 10 to 15 percent of your stay, and you reach a real person who knows the house if anything comes up.
- Up to 15% off vs Airbnb - no guest service fee, ever.
- 5-Star Superhost - homes we know and stand behind.
- Real people, mom & daughter run - reach a host, not a call center.

Galveston Beach House Rentals: common questions
Where are your Galveston beach houses located?
Most of our beach houses are in the gated Grand Beach community near Stewart Beach, on the east end of Galveston Island. They are first row or second row from the Gulf, so the sand is a short walk from your door.
How many people can your Galveston beach houses sleep?
Our beach houses range from sleeping 8 to 17 guests. Larger groups often choose Sunrise on the Beach (sleeps 17), Grand Beach Retreat (sleeps 16), or Sandy Sea-cret (sleeps 16).
Is it cheaper to book a Galveston beach house direct instead of Airbnb?
Yes. Booking direct with Karas Vacation Rentals skips the Airbnb and VRBO guest service fee, so you pay up to 15 percent less for the same home and the same dates.
Are any of your Galveston beach houses pet-friendly?
Several are. Alma de Mar and Sunrise on the Beach welcome dogs. Look for the dog-friendly note on each home or just ask us and we'll match you to a pet-friendly beach house.
