Alma de Mar sits in Galveston's only gated beachfront community on the East End — 300 yards from the Gulf, 5 minutes from The Strand and the Pleasure Pier, 7 min away from the cruise terminals, and a world away from the crowded Seawall scene. A newly built (2024), design-forward 4BR home that sleeps 12, with a bunk room kids love and a primary suite adults won't want to leave.
