"Island Elegance with Romantic History". The elegant Grace Manor, built in 1905, features exquisite stained glass, exotic woodwork and striking antiques. Luxurious amenities are seamlessly blended with Victorian grace. Guest rooms are richly appointed, all with king size beds. A full gourmet breakfast is served with candlelight and soft music. Located in Galveston's East End Historic District, the mansion is within walking distance of The Downtown/Strand shopping area, antique and art galleries, restaurants and entertainment. Considered one of the top architectural structures on The Island, Grace Manor is the perfect setting for that special occasion.

We have stayed with Barb about 5 times, it is always our first choice, but she is booked up many times when we have called. You will never be disappointed with your stay in the lovely home with a most gracious hostess that goes the extra mile to make your visit a wonderful experience. We are on our way there for 2-3 days during the Tour of Historic Homes the first two weekends in May 2013.

I have stayed at many bed and breakfasts over many years of travelling throughout the U.S. and Europe. Grace Manor is at the top of my list of recommendations. I have found that no matter how much research is done, you can still find yourself in a B&B that doesn't live up to your expectations given the reviews and descriptions on various travel sites. NOT THIS ONE! It really surpassed my expectations. Please read all of the reviews and know that there is not one traveller review that is not right on. I won't repeat all of the surperlatives except to reinforce the comments that Barb is an excellent host (and cook!!!) who seems to be in her natural environment running an historic Bed and Breakfast and interacting with her guests. You cannot go wrong spending time here, no matter how high your pre-conceived expectations are.

Grace Manor is a beautiful, elegant home that feels comfortable and cozy the minute you walk in. Will never want to stay in a regular hotel room again. Delightful breakfast every morning and great coffee and cookies. Perfect location. Stayed in Palm Island room and the private veranda was my favorite spot. Thank you Barb, for sharing this lovely home. We're home now and miss it already. The Hutchinsons, West Columbia, TX

What an elegant place to stay. And the smell of bacon was our alarm clock. I'm sharing this B&B with everyone I know.

5 out of 5We will never forget our honeymoon at Grace Manor
October 27, 2010
Upon arrival my husband and I both completely fell in love with this wonderful B&B! It is an amazing place, full of incredible furniture and art! We felt a beautiful calmness and sense of peace at Grace Manor, unlike anywhere else we've ever stayed. Barb was absolutely amazing! She took the time to talk with us about the history of the Manor and we really appreciated that. PLUS, she is an amazing chef! Every morning we were treated to an incredible three course breakfast......sooo delicious! We will most definitely be returning to this wonderful place, and will be bringing friends, too!

May 25, 2009
This was my second stay with Barb at her lovely home. The furnishings are in perfect sync with the elegant decor of the home which has all the original elements: ornamental plaster trim, mahogany wood molding, dazzling stained glass, parquet floors and dreamy balconies. But Barb puts her guests at perfect ease and helps them feel at home. The breakfast is delicious and she has many options to pick from from including fresh fruit, hot entrees and even dessert. The home fared well in the storm and there is no noticeable damage. She is replanting her lush gardens. Can't wait to go back.
5 out of 5Absolutely beautiful, fantastic breakfast

Every detail of the decoration, food, and atmosphere was crafted to perfection by our friendly host. We would definitely stay here again!
