When is the Best Time to Book a Weekend House?

It’s always the best time to book a beach weekend! But seriously, as with most types of  reservations, the sooner the better. Weekend house rentals are perfect for celebrating anniversaries, holidays, or birthdays with family and friends. Make plans now for a cozy getaway with your partner or a long beach weekend with your extended family.
 

Best Times to Visit Galveston

The beaches of Galveston are an obvious draw during the summer. Start your day watching the sunrise over the Gulf while drinking coffee on the deck. Spend hours on the beach sunning, surfing, beachcombing or fishing. For dinner, cook fresh seafood together in your vacation rental’s fully equipped kitchen. Get a good night’s rest and do it all again the next day!

Spring and fall are our favorite times to spend the weekend exploring Galveston. Temperatures typically range in the mid-70s, and sunny days abound. Visit Moody Gardens, the Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier, or the Strand Historic District. Experience some of the region’s best birding during spring & fall migrations. Tour the state’s highest concentration of historical homes, including the 1892 Bishop’s Palace.

Winter can be windy and cold, but with an abundance of local museums, you won’t be bored! Experience the comprehensive history of Texas at the Bryan Museum. Learn about at the oil & gas industry that thrives in this region at the interactive Ocean Star Offshore Drilling Rig & Museum. Dine at local cafes or coffee houses like The Mosquito Cafe, EATcetera or Mod Coffee House. Catch a Broadway-caliber performance at The Grand 1894 Opera House. The best part about visiting in the “off season”? Crowds are low, as are the rates at Galveston weekend beach house rentals!

Plan Your Stay Around Galveston Events & Festivals

If your dates are flexible, time your visit around one of Galveston’s festivals or special events like:

There are activities on the Island for every taste and lifestyle! Whether you’re a thrill-seeker or history buff, you’ll find events & festivals to enjoy all year long.
