The house was even better than described. Lots of character inside the house. The 2 upstairs bedrooms are extremely large with their own bathrooms. The downstairs bedroom also had its own bathroom. Comfortable lounge. Kitchen with plenty of utensils. The garden was a delight to sit outside in the sunshine. Easy to park the car in the driveway. Quiet neighbourhood. Near the seawall, probably about half a mile so walkable for some. Fast and reliable wifi. Would stay here again if returning to Galveston.
David was extremely easy to contact and replied quickly
This is a neat, clean and well designed beach home. We were two families and all of us liked this beautiful house. We had everything we needed in the house from beautiful plates and utensils to Keurig coffee maker and beautiful coffee cups which makes our stay easy and enjoyable. The two bed rooms were great, our kids liked the sleepers downstairs. We definitely would like to stay in this house when we come to Galveston again.
The house is beautiful and very comfortable, the owner is a very nice person, he was always checking if we need anything. I highly recommend this property. We will be back with pleasure!
