About this apartment rental
Welcome to The Lookout at R½ — a 2-bedroom, top-floor retreat just a 2-minute walk from the Galveston beach. Perched above the Seawall with panoramic Gulf views, this property comes with a private 4-person hot tub and 2-person sauna — one of the few Galveston rentals where you can soak under the stars with ocean breezes after a beach day. Pet friendly. Sleeps up to 5 guests.
THE SPACE — LIVING AREA & KITCHEN
The open-concept living area is bright and airy, with large windows and a comfortable sofa that converts to a sleeper for extra guests. The fully equipped kitchen includes a full-size refrigerator, oven, microwave, stove, and Keurig coffee maker — everything you need for quick beach-day snacks or a full group meal. Dining area just off the kitchen.
THE SPACE — BEDROOMS & BATHROOM
Both bedrooms feature queen beds, ceiling fans, closets, and windows with views toward Pleasure Pier — especially striking at night when the lights come on. The full bathroom features a rain-head shower.
BED BREAKDOWN
• Bedroom 1: Queen
• Bedroom 2: Queen
• Living Room: Sofa sleeper (optional, sleeps 1)
THE SPACE — OUTSIDE
The wraparound top-floor deck is the centerpiece — panoramic views of the Gulf, Pleasure Pier, and the Galveston skyline. The courtyard below features a 4-person hot tub, 2-person sauna, multiple seating areas, and a well-lit concrete paver patio. Perfect for morning coffee or soaking under the stars after the beach.
LOCATION
At 3127 Avenue R½ on the Galveston Seawall — 2-minute walk to beach access. Cruise terminals 10 minutes away — ideal for pre/post-cruise stays. Approximately 50–60 minutes from Houston via I-45 South. Scholes International Airport (GLS) just 4 minutes away.
