We loved our stay. We had a great time except 4 of us ended up getting a stomach bug so that wasn’t fun. The house was very comfortable. The only complaint we had was there were lots of roaches. Host was great and answered me immediately. We will return.

Lovely, comfortable beach house that offers an unobstructed view of the ocean.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The kitchen was well equipped, beds comfy and the short distance to the beach was fantastic! The stay was very relaxing and the kids loved the beach area as it was quiet and fairly private. We’d stay here again.

Perfect Beach Getaway

This house was perfect for me and my three teens. We had plenty of room to relax and watch the soothing waves. There is a path directly to the beach and we loved walking morning and evening. Great place to spend a weekend or a week.

So relaxing and wonderful!

This house is further down the beach, so it isn’t over populated or busy. It’s still close to everything in Galveston while being peaceful and relaxing. Clean house, great kitchen, good water pressure, private shower downstairs to get all the sand off, and comfy seating. We had a great time!!

Beach Sleepover

Property is beautiful and located perfectly. Everything was clean and easy to get to. Host responded quickly to any questions we had and provided any information we may have needed. A few draw backs, floor needs updating, Several spots you felt like you would step through. Please be aware we ran across a we rattlesnake hiding in the grass towards the beach.

Great beach access

The location was perfect. Just about a 30 second walk, if that. The 3rd bedroom has several bed for plenty of guest. Great location close to a small grocery store, coffee shop, pizza place as other small stores. The upstairs is unusable, as it’s a sitting area only, could possibly be used as a blow up mattress. Take a baby gate with you if you plan to have little children as the stairs are centrally located and of course the main attraction to littles! Everything worked great!

Vacation

Family vacation. The property is as pictured. Plenty of room. It is on two lots so it’s not right on the beach. The entire front of the house is all windows so all you see is the ocean! The garbage disposal did not work, I called and text to let them know. No one ever came to fix it while we were there. The kitchen has most everything you will need. However, it only had one frying pan and it was small so for breakfast we cooked our eggs in it while in the double ovens we had bacon in one and biscuits in the other! Over all it was great and relaxing.

We were concerned about condition of floor and didn’t think it was safe. Numerous soft spots that sank when stepped on. The wood that had been placed over two areas and covered with rugs were a tripping hazard. We have rented this house 4-5 times and were disappointed to see the floor in this shape. Also the microwave has rusted out interior. Location is perfect, house was clean.
