About this property

Coastal Retreat, Hot Tub, Oceanview, 3 Decks, Short Walk to Secluded Beach

  • Welcome to my beautifully designed beach house on a secluded beach in Galveston, near Jamaica Beach! Karankawa beach is considered a hidden gem and is the perfect place for a relaxing vacation with family and friends. The Honey Hole is stylishly decorated with warm coastal colors so you can truly decompress and create great memories. Enjoy the three spacious decks and relax in the hot tub after a day at the beach. BBQ the catch of the day while sipping cocktails as the sun goes down. Message me for early check in or late check out options when available.

    Enjoy the most sought-after location at my 2 bedroom/3 bath retreat designed with warm coastal colors, allowing you to enjoy your space when not on the beach soaking up the sun. Your weekend oasis is located on the Gulf of Mexico side of the island and just steps away from the beach. Whether you like to fish, workout or just relax you can enjoy the views of both the Gulf of Mexico and Galveston Bay. The beachside location is away from the hustle and bustle but close enough to Galveston’s best restaurants, cafes and shopping. Enjoy the three decks including a hot tub! The house is ready for your stay with clean sheets, towels and toiletries.

    The master suite has a king bed capable of sleeping 2 and the sea-worthy guest room sleeps 3 hosting a queen bed and twin bed with both bedrooms leading to the hot tub on the second floor balcony. The living room has a sleeper sofa for the little ones to fall asleep with watching the 65 inch smart LG tv. The outdoor space includes 3 private balconies with Gulf of Mexico views and a breezy bottom floor outfitted with a porch swing.

    If you like anything from a charming farmhouse, beloved Cape Cod, light-filled retreat, island living or just a simple escape you have found the right place.

    Upon request, I will consider allowing a pet with a non-refundable pet deposit.

Our trip was to relax and unwind before starting the new year. Mission accomplished! The guys were able to buy bait across the street and fish on the beach within view of the unit. The kitchen was extremely well stocked and we were able to cook several meals with just buying the main components. Going out was also an option which we also did. Just know that most restaurants are about 20 minutes away. One of the best features was enjoying the hot tub. Communication with the host was also easy.

Perfect Beach Getaway

We had an amazing stay at this property! The home was beautiful, with breathtaking views that we couldn’t get enough of. It was just a short walk to the beach, which made it super convenient for daily trips. The space was cozy and had everything we needed to feel right at home. Whether we were relaxing indoors or enjoying the stunning scenery, it was the perfect spot for a getaway. Highly recommend and can’t wait to visit again!

This is Home!

This is our VACAY to go spot every summer! It feels just like home because it’s cozy, safe, and has everything we need. It’s less than a 5 minute walk to the beach & Seaven Seas grocery which has everything you need in case you need any extras. It’s also a short drive to the Strand & all the fun attractions you’ll want to do while you’re in Galveston. Mary is always the best hostess and making sure you have everything you need and communicates super quick. The house is so clean, nice and simple without all the clutter and loud colors like other beach homes. We come here every year for the last 5 years and will be back!! We Love the Honey Hole and so will you!

Great getaway

My husband and I enjoyed a week away at the Honey Hole. Mary is a very helpful, responsive host. Check in was super easy. Super clean and kitchen very well stocked. Spent lots of time in the new hot tub. Loved exploring the island and found many great restaurants, coffee shops, liquor stores, and grocery stores. Downtown has lots of great places to visit, and there’s a cute little mini-golf place not far away. Only bummer was it stormed a couple times, resulting in the road between us and the beach to be flooded the whole week. If we had brought sandals or boots we may have ventured through it. The power went out after the second storm but was restored within a few hours. Overall we had everything we needed and loved a quiet place to reconnect and enjoy some downtime. We cannot wait to return to this little gem!!

After Christmas Getaway

My husband and I stayed here after Christmas. The townhouse is older, but beautiful and well maintained. It was clean, quiet and we felt safe. It does have stairs, so know you'll need to walk up and down those. There was a huge TV and a hot tub. The beach was incredibly close and not crowded at all. There was just us and a few other people. The gulf views are awesome. You can see the sunrise from both bedrooms and the dining/living area. Mary, the host, was very helpful; she suggested we bring rainboots as it had rained. It was a great idea because the weather was cooler and they came in handy for puddles and walking on the sand. Some local restaurants were suggested and they turned out very nice. We visited many of the sights and sounds of Galveston and enjoyed ourselves very much. We will definitely be back. This townhouse would be a great place to come back to.
