Throughout Galveston
Remembered as one of Galveston’s most catastrophic natural disasters, Hurricane Ike covered the island in a tidal surge in September of 2008. One of the most devastating casualties was the destruction of thousands of the beach town’s beloved trees. But, a few years after the hurricane, island locals came together to give the majestic oak trees a second life, by carving them into whimsical sculptures. From popular movie characters to animals and historic figures, these works of art can be found in many yards and gardens throughout Galveston, especially in the East End Historic District. Take a self-guided tour by car, bike, or foot to see these spectacular sculptures in person. First, head to the Galveston Visitor Center at 24th Street and Broadway Avenue J to pick up a map and suggested route of these 21 works of art.

The Inn is a little older but don’t let that scare you away. Our room (King bed- courtyard view) was extremely comfortable and cute. The pool and hot tub were by far the best part. The pool bar overlooks the sea wall and water. The staff is very nice and helpful. Can’t beat the location!! We love it here and will definitely stay here again.

September 27, 2022The rooms are super cute with oil paintings and flower arrangements. The place is pretty clean as well. The pool is absolutely fantastic and the staff treated us like family. Also, breakfast was delicious. Our family had a wonderful time and we plan to come back again.

August 27, 2022when i travel to galveston, this hotel is my number one option. I like the rooms because they are very warm-welcoming. The beds are so comfortable and I love them so much because they have 6 pillows per bed. The pillows are the best. I know things have changed with COVID. So, if you need anything just ask the front desk people. The pool is awesome my daughter loves it. the spa is great. just the food is not my favorite at the bar.

My friends and I stayed there for a girls getaway.. The location and pool were great. But the reason we would come back was the outsanding customer service, and attentiveness that Anne (front desk lady) gave us. We appreciated it. Will definitely return.

August 27, 2022+ The staff I dealt with were friendly and very good. I did request some soap for the next day and never got it though. - Rust on the fridge. Socket sparked when I plugged in phone charger. No complete face plate for switch in bathroom and lighting in bathroom as well. Very moody, musty smell. found someone else¿s dirty crusty sock under bed skirting. Water & no soap in d
