“Best-Kept Stays in Galveston | Expert STR Management & Direct Bookings”
Chris Wren – Galveston STR Manager & Vacation Rental Expert
With more than 30 years in hospitality and operations, I bring deep service expertise and front-line guest experience knowledge to short-term rentals in Galveston. I’ve led teams, managed complex projects, and consistently delivered high-quality service focused on comfort, clarity, and repeat business.
Today, I apply that same dedication to helping guests find dependable, well-cared-for stays and assisting owners in optimizing their properties to perform at their best. Whether you’re looking for a memorable Galveston getaway or a management partner who understands bookings, reviews, and compliance, you’re in the right place.
As President of the STROAG Board of Directors, a Certified Tourism Ambassador, and a City STR Ad-Hoc Committee member, I stay involved in local policy, industry best practices, and community trends that directly affect owners and guests alike. That connection keeps me ahead of compliance requirements and deeply rooted in what actually works for properties on the island.
For guests:
• Trusted local listings you can book with confidence
• Clean, well-maintained homes with thoughtful details
• Fast, friendly communication backed by hospitality experience
For owners:
• Hands-on listing optimization and revenue strategy
• Clear, responsive operations and guest care
• Practical consulting or full management tailored to your goals
Your property and your guests deserve a manager who understands both the hospitality promise and the business realities of STR success in Galveston.
Are you ready to take back control of your property rather than letting it control you? If your current manager isn’t delivering—whether it’s low scores, slow responses, or declining revenue—let’s talk about a better approach.
I run a small, intentionally managed portfolio so every property gets the time, attention, and oversight it deserves. I’m hands-on, detail-driven, and known for fast communication, which is reflected in my guest reviews and repeat bookings.
My process is simple:
• I “inspect what I expect”
• I keep your listing, pricing, and compliance up to date.
• I stay plugged into local STR policy and hospitality trends.
• I handle the back-end business side so you don’t have to.
After three decades in hospitality, what keeps me passionate is taking care of people — both guests and owners — and consistently delivering a five-star experience that drives revenue and builds long-term success.
