Bed and Breakfast Description

Lost Bayou Guesthouse is located close to every thing: Galveston's city center, the beach, the historic strand district, cruise terminals, many quality restaurants, Schlitterbahn water park, Moody Gardens, and many other attractions.

This colonial style home was originally built in 1890 as a one and a half story, single-family residence. A major hurricane hit Galveston in 1900 and floated the house off its foundation.

The original house was raised up high enough to build a complete new level underneath. Upon completion in 1906 this multi-family home became a two and a half story structure. The front of the house took-on the colonial look with a front porch on each level and four large columns on both levels.

Lost Bayou Guesthouse offers a relaxing environment with country flair and a lot of fresh air from the Gulf of Mexico. This unique Texas bed and breakfast is one of the few surviving homes after the 1900 hurricane. With its tall ceilings, hardwood floors, and large windows, Lost Bayou Guesthouse stands as a symbol of elegance in design giving a felling of openness but retaining a feeling of warmth and comfort.
