This charming historic home offers a comfortable layout that perfectly blends together modern convenience with the unique character of a bygone era. The first floor features a separate living room, dining room, and kitchen, each offering distinct spaces to relax, gather, and prepare meals. Pocket doors add a touch of whimsy while separating these areas, allowing for both open-concept flow and privacy when desired. A full bathroom and a bedroom with a king-sized bed complete the first floor, making it ideal for guests who may have difficulty with stairs.

Head upstairs to discover four additional bedrooms, each a relaxing retreat after a fun-filled Galveston day. One bedroom offers a luxurious king-sized bed, perfect for another couple or a couple seeking extra space. Two other bedrooms provide queen-sized beds, ideal for additional couples or individual travelers. And for families with younger children, there's a whimsical bunk room featuring two full-over-full bunk beds designed to resemble clubhouses. A full bathroom on the second floor conveniently serves all the upstairs bedrooms.

After a day of exploring the beach or the Strand District, unwind on the inviting backyard patio with comfortable seating – the perfect spot to enjoy a refreshing beverage, a delicious meal, or simply relax under the Texas sky. The Pink Door House offers the space and amenities to make your Galveston getaway truly memorable.

Beautiful unique home.
The parking was tricky and our code to the door didn’t work. However the owner was very quick to reply and made sure we got in ok. Excellent communication! Previous guests went a little rough on their property unfortunately (some minor fixes needed). But overall everyone had a great time.

Easy Checkin and Ideal Location Pre-Cruise
This house was the perfect location for us the night before our Carnival Cruise. We ended up renting a car and it took all of 6 minutes for my dad to drop each group of folks off at the terminal. We even said we wished we booked it for the day we came back. It was super close to a downtown area with food and live music. We didn't get to go to the pier area while in town but would definitely drive down their if we're ever in Galveston again. Thank you all again for a wonderful stay!
