Kahala Beach

Kahala Beach

Overview: A small, exclusive West End neighborhood featuring just two rows of elevated beachfront homes. It offers privacy, Gulf panoramas, and a quiet retreat from more crowded beaches.

 

Location & Access: Located about 14 miles west of 61st Street along FM 3005, Kahala Beach provides direct beachfront access in a serene setting while still being a short drive to central Galveston’s restaurants and attractions.

 

Schools & Services: Zoned to Galveston ISD, with Ball High and GISD Collegiate Academy serving older students. Daily services and shopping are accessible along the Seawall.

 

Housing Types & Vibe: The community includes around 22 mid-sized, elevated single-family homes with modern coastal architecture. Its layout maximizes Gulf views and maintains a peaceful, upscale atmosphere.

 

History & Origins: Platted in 1993 by Bruce and Debbie Reinhart, the neighborhood was primarily developed between 1997 and 2012. Its elevated builds reflect modern coastal standards designed for longevity and resilience.

 

Amenities & Outdoors: Residents enjoy direct access to a quiet, less crowded stretch of beach, perfect for sunbathing, fishing, or birdwatching. Its location also places owners close to West End nature areas and parks.

 

STR Snapshot: Vacation rentals are common, but buyers should verify HOA rules and City of Galveston registration requirements before purchasing as an STR investment.

 

Flood & Insurance Notes: Elevated construction helps mitigate risk. Buyers should review FEMA flood zones, windstorm coverage, and insurance costs.

 

What sets this community apart:

  • Intimate beachfront community with only 22 homes
  • Elevated construction with sweeping Gulf views
  • Quiet, private location but still near town
  • Excellent for second homes, retreats, or STRs (verify rules).
