Wonderful weekend getaway on a broad stretch of beach. A perfect spot to watch the sea birds flying in the sun, at Galveston.

Onsite convenience store is stocked to the gills with snacks. Dive in. (Mom will never. Have. To know.)

They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Here, they say it’s free (‘cause it is).

Every day should start with free cinnamon rolls, and here, it will.

Ideal launching pad right off I-45 and minutes from downtown as well as Seawall Beach.

Free hot breakfast includes waffles!

Comfy beds and pull-out sleeper sofas reduce the chance of any blanket-hog showdowns.

No better location: right on the water.

A private balcony with killer views? Check and check.

Hot breakfast spread every day, free – plus weekday grab & go brekkie for when you've gotta jet.

Seriously stellar address drops you minutes from the picture-perfect Gulf of Mexico.

Conveniently located right off the highway, and Quintana Beach and Surfside Beach both are 15 minutes away. Bring the swimmies!

Kitchen or kitchenette, depending on the size of your villa. Whip up something moderately impressive. Or bring back take-out.

Free hot breakfast is always nice to wake up to.
