Vacation Rental Galveston, TX

Located 3 blocks from the Seawall, Wright By The Sea is a vacation rental in Galveston, TX with a rich history. It has evolved into its current-day splendor throughout the years.

The building was built in 1913 and  was the Wright Pharmacy from 1927 to the 1970s. It later became a deli, before being converted into the living space we know today as Wright By The Sea. If you like your vacation home to have a story to tell, you will definitely find that here.

 

Review

Tara’s house is very well decorated. The interior design is wonderful, and the many beds, kitchen space and TVs in each bedroom made our stay very enjoyable. We had a lot of fun, and we’re amazed by the giant upper deck with ocean views. This house is definitely recommended to larger groups, but a smaller family/number of guests would have all the comfort they need.
