Charming Coastal Bungalow Close to the Beach
Serenely set in the Sea Isle neighborhood, this cheerful, coral-pink bungalow was built for the beach. With multiple outdoor spaces— including a rooftop deck and a huge fenced-in yard— you’ll have plenty of space to soak up the Texas Gulf Coast sunshine and feel the ocean breezes. There’s also an outdoor shower, a barbeque area, and the Sea Isle Beach access point is a hop-and-a-skip down the lane. There’s space for ten, so bring the family for a carefree coastal getaway.

Little Tuna has a fun, relaxed beach style. The living area is open to the kitchen and has a sectional sofa with soft throw pillows. A large, flatscreen television is mounted over a console table. Slip off your flip-flops and relax here in the evenings with your favorite TV show or a family film festival. A wall of windows behind the sofa floods the whole room with bright, natural light.
The clean and efficient kitchen has a tiered peninsula bar with seating for six people. White cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and a subway tile backsplash are accented with pops of bright teal. It’s a perfect, sunny spot to linger over the morning coffee while flipping fresh blueberry pancakes, or packing the cooler with some snacks for the beach. A laundry nook with a stacked washer and dryer is next to the refrigerator.
There are two bedrooms and a full bathroom on the main floor. The first bedroom has a queen-size bed with glass doors that provide tons of natural sunlight and lead out to the deck. The second bedroom has a full-over-full-size bunk bed. A full bathroom with a step-in shower can be accessed from the hallway. On the ground level, a third bedroom has a full-over-full-size bunk and flatscreen television. This bedroom is not connected to the main house, guests must use exterior stairs to access the main home and bathroom.
The outdoor spaces of this home were built to take full advantage of the gorgeous Texas Gulf Coast. On the main level, there’s a spacious deck with an outdoor dining table and plenty of lounging space. You can choose to kick back in the shade with a cool drink or soak up the sun and work on your tan. A rooftop deck has plenty of privacy and a birds-eye view of the Sea Isle Beach neighborhood. The rooftop space is ideal for relaxing with a glass of wine while watching the sunset, or working on your Texas tan in the afternoons.
The crown jewel of this home is the gigantic, emerald green lawn that’s fully fenced in. Play volleyball or badminton while your four-legged family members frolic safely nearby. When your crew is ready for the beach, the access point for Sea Isle is a quick walk down the road. A barbeque area with a charcoal grill and an outdoor shower complete the Texas beach house must-haves. You won’t find another home quite like this one anywhere on the west end of Galveston.

This beach house has a huge fenced yard for children or pets, it's located west of Jamaica beach so it is a little bit of a drive to the seawall and other attractions, it is very roomy and comfortable and we enjoyed our stay and would keep it in mind for our next Galveston trip.
We spent one day and night at this property and very much enjoyed it. The fenced in yard for the dogs was perfect. The master bed was smaller than advertized (barely a full) but everything else was great. The property management and cleaning crew were also super helpful. We would stay there again!
This property met all our needs!! It was across the road from public access to the beach and had more than enough room. There is an awesome play area for kids perfect to bring our grandsons for the next visit!!
The house is fantastic, there is plenty of room, the multi story decks are amazing. The house is just off the main road so walking to the beach only takes a couple minutes. I also appreciate the kitchen being stocked with everything needed to make breakfast. I especially enjoyed the coffee maker, it was very new and made a great cup of coffee. BUT the beds are so unbelievably uncomfortable! They were so bad it affected our trip. The last night my wife and I slept on the couch, which was a big improvement.
Super cute beach house in the perfect location to walk to the beach and to enjoy the bay! The neighborhood has so much to do for kids! We enjoyed walking to the gulf side as well as the marina and bay side. Russell was very responsive and made communication easy. We hope to stay again!
Great stay & great communication from host. Washer/dryer made it very practical to wash clothes before leaving. The space is great and the new addition of fire pit and playground made the yard even more fun! Bring bathroom toiletries (shampoo, etc) bc that’s not something provided. Latches on doors are a little tricky, so locking bathroom and master bedroom was not easy, but we made it work. Overall a great stay!!

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Quiet neighborhood
Location was ideal for relaxing. Property in need of maintenance/repair.
Our stay in general was pleasant and quiet We loved the balconies and well kept outdoor areas
We greatly enjoyed the outside environment in general
Planning on coming back next year
Smaller than the pictures but nice for small children or single family stay. Not really for multiple adults staying. Bunk beds are small for a couples trip
Our stay at Little Tuna was fantastic! The communication prior to our arrival was great and this continued throughout our stay. When we needed forks for a dinner party I contacted them and they were delivered within hours. My husband and I were very comfortable and felt right at home. We would definitely book this getaway again!
Great stay at Little Tuna! Russell was a great host and very easy to communicate with. The home was clean and perfect for our group of 4. I know it says it sleeps 11, but that would probably be a little tight. Loved all the outdoor seating! Was bummed we didn't get to use the firepit, but it is a great touch. The location to the beach is perfect. Less than a five minute walk. I would definitely recommend this home!
My husband and I had a nice stay at the little tuna with our pup. Very close to the beach and a great nearby restaurant at the marina in the neighborhood. The beds were comfy but for being 6 months pregnant it was a little tough getting out of the very low bed. Would not recommend to anyone who is past 7 months. Another addition that would be nice would be some sort of towel rack to hang your bath towels on. Although needs a few updates, we would stay here again.
Refrigerator did not work well. All of our beverages stay room temp maybe a little colder. We did make a trip to get 2 bags of ice and kept everything in the freezer. Bottom bedroom beds were a little unstable. Other thank that it was a good stay.
My family and I had a great time. The communication with our host was top notch from the beginning. He even checked on us during our stay to make sure we’ve settled in nicely. The home accommodation for my big family was perfect. My kids enjoyed the big backyard and the playground. We took advantage of the bbq grill that was there. Sadly we didn’t get the chance to use the fire pit due to a thunderstorm but it’s there if guests want to roast some marshmallows during their stay. We especially loved that we were so close to the beach.
The home was fully stocked. We had everything we needed. We will definitely be back, for sure!
Had a fun stay at this property. Brought our dogs and they had a blast in the spacious yard. Lots of seating areas outside. Property is close to beach, just a short walk away. Good views.
The one bath has a single sink and small shower, which worked fine for us. Kitchen was pretty well stocked... no toaster, but we travel with our electric griddle so that wasn't an issue.
As other guests have mentioned, the main bedroom bed, is pretty low to the ground, and the air conditioner/cooler which is in that room can get noisy.
Advice: it's Galveston and coastal. Mosquitoes are a thing. Bring your bug spray, and use it
Overall we had a great time and enjoyed our stay at the Little Tuna.
Very disappointed! Let’s start with the bed in the main bedroom, very uncomfortably and sits just inches off the ground. No TVs in bedrooms, no light switch in master bedroom. There are holes in the walls in several areas of the home. The property is in a very good location with easy access to the beach. This property would make a great vacation rental if the owner would invest in upgrades!! No ones wants to sleep on an uncomfortable bed on vacation!
My family and I loved this place. It was good that the downstairs bedroom had its own bathroom. We cooked multiple meals in the kitchen and charcoal grill outside. The fire pit was great for roasting marshmallows. I hope to stay here again
We stay in Sea Isle every year and this house did not disappoint! Great location close to the beach and bar. Dogs loved the huge yard. The layout was perfect for us. Had everything we needed. The 3rd floor patio was great for sun sets. Would absolutely recommend this place Ava look forward to coming back!
