Brick patio with chairs, a small lawn, and the light blue house at The 1820 Inn

Galveston, Texas

A small inn, one block from the beach

The 1820 Inn sits on Avenue O ½, around a shared courtyard with a pergola, fire pit, and putting green. Our first suite is ready for monthly stays, and it is available now.

The inn

Not a hotel. A courtyard you come home to.

We are two neighboring houses at 1820 Avenue O ½ — one painted light blue, one with green trim — gathered around a quiet yard. You park at the door, cook in your own kitchen, and sit outside when the day winds down.

The name is our street number, not a build year. Avenue O ½ is one of Galveston’s half-streets: easy to miss, and better once you are inside the gate.

  • One block from the beach and the Seawall
  • A courtyard with a pergola, fire pit, putting green, and charcoal grill
  • Monthly stays of 30 nights or longer

Location

One block to the beach. A short drive to UTMB.

Walk a block to the Seawall and the Gulf. The University of Texas Medical Branch is about 1.5 miles away — roughly a five-minute drive — which makes the inn a practical base for traveling nurses, UTMB staff, and anyone here for a month of work.

The Strand and the rest of the island are an easy trip when you want them. Evenings can stay here, in the courtyard.

You can book the suite directly on this site, or on Airbnb or Furnished Finder. Short stays will come later, once city registration is in place; for now we offer stays of 30 nights or longer.

Booking on our website is about $75 less than Airbnb for a month’s stay, with no cleaning fee, and you talk directly with your host.
