This was by far the most pleasant place I have ever rented in Galveston. The owners thought of everything. There was nothing that we needed that wasn’t already provided. The home was cozy and comfortable and it really felt like home. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen was amazing. I was there on business but would absolutely return there for fun and wouldn’t stay anywhere else. Thank you for such a welcoming experience for us and our dog. The backyard and patio were perfect. Thank you again.

Our family of four really enjoyed our stay. The location is great and only a block to the beach. It’s walking distance to several restaurants and Pleasure Pier. The decor is very vibrant with beautiful beach vibes. I loved all the little touches they included in the bathroom for items you may have forgotten. They also have a beach wagon, chairs and an outdoor shower that was another great touch to our stay. The backyard is private and cozy. The hosts were amazing and responded quickly to any questions I had. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful home and location! What you see online is precisely what you walk into. In addition to the lovely decor, thoughtfulness shows through the home from easy to locate items in the kitchen to extra items easily left behind at home such as toothpaste and shower supplies. Ron and Carol are easy to communicate with and readily available if needed. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay and will be back.

This house was super cute and the perfect distance from the water. It had everything we needed for our spring break stay. This was our little doxies’s first road trip and beach experience so we truly appreciated having a clean and pet friendly space to be able to bring her along.The hosts were extremely accommodating and attentive.

We can’t say enough great things about the accommodations or the host. The house was super clean and beyond stocked. If you forget toiletries of any kind, they have you covered. If you choose to cook a gigantic meal they have you covered with cookware, flatware… We appreciated that dogs were welcomed and again they were prepared should you forget your pet supplies. I sent the owner a few texts and the response was quick. Location is walking distance to the Spot and Pleasure Pier/seawall. Just wonderful!!!

The most wonderful and relaxing home away from home! Carol and Ron have provided a beautiful home with all the amenities you could hope to have. From the fully fitted out kitchen (including complimentary wine) to every toiletry you could think of - nothing is missing. Did I mention the Christmas tree???The backyard is a dream and they provide beach toys. So close to the beach and great places to eat and visit. A dream vacation.

We enjoyed our few days exploring Galveston and the cottage was a great spot to come home to. As in the photos, the decor gives total beach vibes and the bed was very comfortable.We didn’t cook here, but the kitchen looked fully equipped and the bathroom also had everything you could need.Hosts were great and I would recommend this cottage for a stay in Galveston.

Beach House Getaway

Lovely location and plenty of commodities to help us enjoy our stay. The wagon full of beach toys was a great bonus, and we spent a good amount of time in the evenings hanging out in the back garden. Would love to visit again someday.

Amazing beach vacation!

We loved our stay! The house was clean, bright and comfortable. We had above and beyond anything we could have needed for our 4 nights there. The owners were communicative and helpful, making sure that we had ideas for our two kids’ first trip to the beach. And it really is so close to the beach! We would stay here again in a second.

Cozy cottage

Stayed to attend friends birthday party nearby for 3 nights. Hosts were great. Friendly and so accommodating. Everything you can possible need included other than your own food and drink. Great location other than on fairly busy street. Can walk to beach and several great nearby restaurants. Would definitely stay there again.
