Colva Tides | Coastal Retreat, Near Beach

Welcome to Colva Tides, a newly updated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom beachside retreat located just before Pirate’s Beach in Galveston, Texas. Perfectly positioned just steps from the Gulf, this home offers an ideal escape for families or friends seeking sun, sand, and easy access to the island's top attractions.

Step outside and enjoy the coastal breeze from the comfort of the deck, where you can take in sunrise or sunset views. The fenced yard features a volleyball net, grill, ping pong table, beach toys, and even a stationary bike—creating a fun, activity-filled space for guests of all ages. The beach is just moments away, giving you direct access to one of Galveston’s most relaxing features: the ocean.

Inside, Colva Tides offers a spacious and inviting layout. The living room features brand-new, cozy furniture and a large flat-screen TV for unwinding after a day in the sun. The dining area has charming banquette seating, and the fully equipped kitchen includes everything you need for preparing meals at home.

The home comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests with a flexible sleeping arrangement. Bedroom 1 and Bedroom 2 each feature full beds, while the sunroom—converted into a third bedroom—includes a twin-over-twin bunk bed and a daybed with a trundle. The living room also includes a queen sleeper sofa for additional guests. Two full bathrooms ensure convenience for larger groups.

What sets Colva Tides apart is its thoughtful blend of relaxation and recreation. Whether you’re playing a game in the yard, lounging on the deck, or cooking dinner as a group, this home encourages quality time and connection.

Nearby, you’ll find popular Galveston attractions just a short drive away. It’s only 6.9 miles to Walmart for essentials, 7.2 miles to family-friendly fun at Moody Gardens, and 9.9 miles to the iconic Galveston Historic Pleasure Pier. Dining, shopping, and beachcombing are all within easy reach.

Book your stay at Colva Tides today and make lasting memories in this charming beachside retreat on Galveston’s West End!

Fun and convenient

This is a perfect location. Easy to find off the main road and a couple blocks from the beach. The place was super clean with lots of towels and bedding. All the appliances worked and we had everything we needed to cook. I would stay here again!
