Galveston has a vacation rental for every kind of trip, and between our homes you can find most of them in one place. Want to be on the sand with the whole family? We have beachfront houses at Grand Beach. Traveling as a couple? A Seawall resort condo is steps from the water. Bringing the boat? Tiki Retreat sits on a West End canal with its own ramp. Here for downtown or the medical center? Our central homes put you minutes from the Strand and UTMB.

Galveston Vacation Rentals: common questions
What kinds of vacation rentals do you have in Galveston?
We manage beachfront houses at Grand Beach near Stewart Beach, beachfront resort condos on the Seawall, a canal-front home with a boat ramp on the West End, and central downtown homes near the Strand and UTMB. Homes sleep from 4 up to 17 guests.
Why book direct instead of through Airbnb or VRBO?
Booking direct with Karas Vacation Rentals skips the platform guest service fee (usually 10 to 15 percent), so the same home on the same dates costs less, and you reach the family who runs the home directly.
Are your Galveston vacation rentals good for families?
Yes. Most of our homes are full houses built for families and groups, with full kitchens, multiple bedrooms, and beach or water access. Several are pet-friendly so the dog can come too.
