Casa di Mare - Galveston is Beautiful in the Fall!

Single Family w/ 5 Bedrooms - 2½ Bathrooms - Sleeps 20

Vacation Rental Description

We invite you to experience Casa di Mare (House by the Sea), a  
beautiful, custom-built bay home newly built in 2005, located on the  
West Bay of Galveston Island.  This well-loved, family home is a  
premium value because of its many amenities which include beautiful  
sunsets, a private fishing pier, boat ramp, outside shower, large  
breezy patio under the house, three large porches and huge sundeck.   
Also for those guests who enjoy bird watching, our property is  
located across the street from the Eight Mile Road Wetlands, a  
federally protected preserve which features many of our native birds  
in their natural habitat.  Cranes, pelicans, and beautiful  
flamingoes can be seen in the early morning from our porch.  The  
views are beautiful on all sides of the house, especially at sunset,  
and the beautiful Galveston Causeway can be seen lighting up the  
night sky like fireworks between Houston and Galveston.  We are  
secluded but close to the Strand, West Beach, the Seawall, Moody  
Gardens, Kemah, the Municipal Golf Course, Walmart, and the brand  
new Schlitterbahn Water Park. 
 
We can accomodate family reunions, birthday parties, company  
parties, corporate retreats and small weddings.  Getting married at  
sunset on the large deck is very romantic and we have some very nice  
pictures of one of our weddings.  We have the ability to supply  
moonwalks, snowcone machines, tables, chairs, and margarita  
machines.  Please call for pricing details.

Vacation Rental Amenities

The inside of the home is equally impressive.  We have decided to  
decorate with an Italian flair.  The large island kitchen features  
granite counters, stainless steel appliances, which include three  
ovens, microwave, stove, side-by-side refrigerator, and large  
capacity dishwasher.  Eight barstools can sit around the large  
island and four more may sit at the kitchen table.  The two-story  
family room has a large 52 inch screen TV, DVD player, stereo, and  
wood-burning fireplace.  There are four equal sized bedrooms, most  
having a double bed and a twin bed.  Upstairs is a loft with four  
double beds for a total of eight double beds, and three twin beds.   
We can comfortably sleep 20 people.  Two full baths, one upstairs  
and one downstairs, and a 1/2 bath/utility room (downstairs) is well  
equipped with a front-loading large capacity washer and dryer.   
Every room has a ceiling fan.  Maid service and laundry service are  
both available for an additional charge.  There is no smoking in our  
home.
