We Work With Many Kinds of Homeowners. Do Any of These Apply to You?

If one of these sounds like you, there is a good chance we are a great fit.

Already working with another property manager?

Many homeowners come to us frustrated with their current results. They want more revenue and a home that is better cared for. We are confident we can deliver both, and we make the switch easy.

Get in touch

Managing the home yourself today?

Self-managing often means guest calls at 11pm, unreliable cleaners, and revenue left on the table. We list across 6+ booking channels plus our own direct site, and we take the day-to-day off your plate entirely.

Get in touch

Thinking about renting your home for the first time?

Turning a second home into a rental is a big decision. We walk you through the pros and cons, share a real, market-backed earnings estimate, and if you are ready, we can have you live and earning in weeks.

Good to know

Frequently Asked Questions.

What sets BeachBox apart from other property managers?
We are the only property manager that actually lives on Galveston Island. Our local team treats every home like our own, and you always know exactly who to call. Rather than leaving your calendar to the listing sites, we drive our own guest demand through proprietary pricing, marketing, and a large network of repeat guests, so your home stays booked.
What channels do you list my property on?
We list your home on every major platform, Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, Expedia, and Google Vacation Rentals, plus our own direct-booking site. We also promote every home to our network of 50K+ past guests and across social media, which drives more direct bookings, encourages repeat stays, and cuts down on the fees the big platforms charge.
How does onboarding work?
We make it as quick and simple as possible. It starts with a short call to learn your goals, then our local team handles everything, photography, listing setup, dynamic pricing, channel setup, and guest communication, to get your home live and earning. Most homes are live and taking bookings within about three weeks.
What are your management fees and what do they include?
Our goal is simple: make you more than we charge. We take one small share of what your home earns, with no hidden fees or surprises. That covers everything, guest communication, bookings, VRHP-standard housekeeping, maintenance, inspections, and clear monthly statements. You make more, do less, and your home stays protected.
Do you have a local team to support guests and maintain properties?
Absolutely, it is what sets us apart. Our full-time team of 38+ lives and works right here in Galveston: property managers, in-house maintenance and makeready crews, and around-the-clock guest support. That means faster response times, better care for your home, and a more personal touch for you and your guests.
What do you do to keep guests happy?
Happy guests mean better reviews and more rebookings, so we sweat every detail: fast, friendly replies, seamless check-ins, spotless VRHP-standard cleanings, and curated local guidebooks with exclusive partner discounts. Our owners’ homes have earned 13,000+ five-star reviews.
Can I still use my property whenever I want?
Of course, it is your home. Block off any dates you would like for your own stays, a holiday weekend, a few weeks in summer, or a longer visit, right through BeachBox, and we will keep everything else running.
Is my home a good fit for short-term rental?
Most well-kept homes in the Galveston area can perform, but the honest answer depends on your location, size, and amenities. Request a free estimate and we will run the real numbers for your specific property, no commitment required.
How do you decide what my home rents for each night?
Pricing is never set-and-forget. We pair dynamic pricing tools with a local team that watches real Galveston demand every day: seasonality, events, weather, and how comparable homes are booking. Rates adjust daily so your home wins the peak weekends and stays competitive in slower months.
How and when do I get paid?
You receive a clear monthly statement showing every booking, what guests paid, and exactly what you earned, with your payout sent straight to your bank account. No chasing numbers, no surprises.
What happens if a guest damages my home?
Every stay is backed by property damage protection, and thorough guest screening keeps problem bookings out in the first place. If something does happen, our local team documents it, handles the claim, and our in-house maintenance crew gets your home guest-ready again fast.
How do you screen guests?
Every booking is screened before check-in, with background checks, clear house rules, and no-party policies. Because our team lives right here on the island, issues are rare, and when they do come up, they are handled in person and fast.
My home is not rental-ready yet. Can you help me set it up?
Yes, this is one of our favorite parts. During onboarding we walk your home, flag anything guests would notice, and help with staging, stocking, and design touches. Then professional photography shows it at its best from day one.
What about hurricane season?
We plan for it all year. Every home gets proactive storm preparation before severe weather, covering securing the property, guest communication, and post-storm checks. You can read the full plan on our hurricane preparedness page.
I already use another property manager. How hard is it to switch?
Easier than you would think. We handle the transition end to end: timing the switch around existing reservations, rebuilding your listings, fresh photography, and dialing in pricing, so your calendar keeps earning through the handoff.
Which areas do you manage?
We manage homes across the Galveston area: Galveston Island, Kemah, Surfside, and Crystal Beach. If your home is nearby on the Texas Gulf Coast, reach out, we are happy to take a look.
Will I still have a say in how my home is managed?
Always. It is your home, and you set the ground rules: your minimum stays, your house rules, your personal use. You also get a direct line to a real local team member, not a 1-800 number, whenever you want to talk.
