Driftwood Cove- Close to the beach

Welcome to Driftwood Cove, a 3BR/2BA Galveston getaway in the Pirates Beach subdivision, sleeping 9. Multi-level deck seating turns sunrise coffee and sunset cocktails into daily rituals! The main level features an open living, kitchen, and dining area with a queen bedroom and a fun twin-over-twin-over-twin bunk room. Upstairs, a private king suite with en-suite bath opens to its own deck. A laid-back coastal retreat where island time isn`t a mood — it`s the whole point.

Welcome to Driftwood Cove, a laid-back, character-filled getaway tucked into Galveston`s beloved Pirates Beach subdivision — where beach days are unhurried, decks are made for lingering, and the whole trip runs on island time. This 3-bed/2-bath home comfortably sleeps up to 9 guests and offers just the right layout for a family vacation, a relaxed reunion with friends, or a milestone getaway that calls for something a little different. Driftwood Cove is the perfect blend of coastal comfort, easy-going Pirates Beach charm, and unhurried island living.

Come on in to the main level and settle into a bright, open-concept layout that ties the living room, kitchen, and dining area together in one welcoming space — the kind of setup made for shared meals, easy conversations, and lazy mornings in no particular hurry. Two of the three bedrooms live on this level. The first offers a comfortable queen-sized bed, while the second is a kid-approved bunk room featuring a truly fun triple-stack twin-over-twin-over-twin bunk that easily sleeps three little ones (or three adults game for a nostalgic sleepover). Climb up to the top level and you`ll find the primary suite waiting — a peaceful king-sized retreat complete with its own en-suite bathroom and, best of all, direct access to a private deck. It`s the kind of grown-up perk that makes early mornings and quiet evenings feel a little more special.

The soul of Driftwood Cove lives outside on those wonderful deck seating areas. Grab your coffee at sunrise and watch the day arrive from your own upstairs perch, or pour a cold drink at sunset and settle in for the kind of laid-back evening this coast was made for. It`s the small stuff — a breeze off the Gulf, a good chair, no place you have to be — that turns a beach trip into a real reset. And when you`re ready to get moving, Pirates Beach delivers everything you`d want in a Galveston getaway: quiet, family-friendly beaches nearby, great local dining, and easy access to the Galveston Country Club and the island`s most popular attractions — the Galveston Seawall, Pleasure Pier, Moody Gardens, and the historic Strand District all just a short drive away. Come for the beach, stay for the deck, and take home the kind of stories that only happen when you finally slow down.
