Happy days at Yappy Turtle! The 2 decks, fenced yard, updated furnishings, and unbeatable location are just a few things to look forward to at this welcoming Galveston beach house. Perfect for a couples trip or group getaway, get ready to sit back and relax at this contemporary beachfront escape!

Your Island vacation starts when you walk in. The nautical decor and soft coastal color palette invite you to gather for family time in front of the wall of windows. Admire the beautiful Gulf views while catching up and planning the day’s events. Even the family chef can appreciate the water and whip up a delicious meal at the same time. Feast together and make memories at the large dining table.

After a fun day in the sun, end the night in your cozy bedroom. The primary king suite is on the upper level, and it boasts a private deck with stunning Gulf views. Enjoy uninterrupted access to the breeze and beach! Freshen up in the en suite bathroom with double vanity and large walk-in shower. One bunk room is next door and another is on the main level - perfect retreats for the kids and teens. The main level also has another king bedroom as well as a full bathroom and washer/dryer!

Drink in the Gulf views from the expansive main deck. Catch a glimpse of dolphins, listen to the birds and the waves, or lounge and sip on your favorite drink. If you’re ready to hit the water, take the private walkover straight to the sand. No matter what activity you choose, you’ll be smiling from ear to ear either way!

Spring break get away

Location was great, views we’re beautiful. House needs some major attention. Bathtub on main level has hole in it and was patched. Floors are weak in some spots. Ceiling and walls have water damage. House smells musty and old. We had to go buy plug ins to get past the musty smell.
