4 Bedroom House in Kahala Beach Estates, Galveston

Welcome to Butterfly Dunes, a stunning beachfront escape nestled along the serene shores of Galveston, Texas. Designed for travelers seeking tranquility, privacy, and uninterrupted ocean views, this luxurious 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home offers the ultimate setting for a restorative coastal getaway. With its unbeatable beachfront location and spacious design, Butterfly Dunes is where relaxation meets refined comfort.

From the moment you arrive, the soothing sound of the waves sets the tone for your stay. The home’s expansive wrap-around deck offers front-row views of the Gulf and is uniquely positioned closer to the shoreline than its neighbors, giving you rare, panoramic 180-degree vistas of the beach, dunes, and sea. Soak in the sun on the deck’s loungers, sip cocktails at the built-in bar, or gather for meals at the oversized outdoor dining table. With seating for 17, including a shaded lounge area, the deck is an outdoor paradise in itself. An outdoor shower, picnic area, and direct beach access ensure every day is a beach day.

Inside, Butterfly Dunes welcomes you with soaring windows, abundant natural light, and an open-concept layout that creates an inviting, airy atmosphere. The main floor features a spacious living and dining area perfect for gathering with family and friends. The adjacent kitchen is fully equipped for cooking and entertaining. A main-level king bedroom with private deck access and a full bathroom offers a convenient and comfortable space for guests of all ages.

Upstairs, the luxurious master suite features a Tempur-Pedic king bed, additional daybed with trundle, a spa-like bath with jetted tub, double sinks, and a private balcony overlooking the water. Two additional guest rooms provide flexible sleeping arrangements — one with a queen bed and shared balcony access, and a kid-friendly bunk room with both a pyramid bunk and a twin-over-twin bunk bed. A full shared bath and laundry room with a washer and dryer add to the comfort and functionality of the upper level.

Adventure and fun await just a short drive away. Located approximately 13 miles from Galveston’s main attractions, guests can easily explore Moody Gardens, Schlitterbahn Waterpark, and the vibrant Strand Historic District. Enjoy fresh seafood at island restaurants, shop for coastal treasures, or take a dolphin-watching cruise — all within reach of your private retreat.

Summary: You couldn’t ask for a better location. Everything was comfortable and wonderful! I love that all 7 of us could sit at the tables inside and outside. There was also plenty of room to lounge around and watch a movie at night. The kitchen was super well stocked too as we like to cook about half of our meals when on vacay! The only negative was the upstairs master tv isn’t smart or Cobb wanted to anything so it is only able to mirror, but it wouldn’t work for us. However, the entire beautiful wall of windows in front of you there is the ocean so no loss there!
