Absolutely perfect place to stay. My wife and I loved the room and all of the decorations. The room had toiletries and amenities that you never see other places have. We ended up having the best weekend in Galveston.

The Captain's Quarters this is a great place to stay. The decor is a lot of fun. It is very well stocked and maintained. And it is such a short walk to the beach that we ended up spending much of our time with our toes in the sand.

We loved our stay at Captain’s Quarters. They thought of everything-snacks, coffee, movie entertainment, extra toiletries, and so much more! It’s a quick walk to the beach and a very private, quiet home with an amazing balcony. I’d highly recommend this property. The hosts are very quick to respond as well.

The Captain Quarters provided all we had hoped for! My husband works out of town and we both work long hours in construction so we wanted to rest relax and reconnect! The property offered us just that! We loved the antiques throughout the property and the extras they provided such as snacks and such. The property was quiet and we never felt or seen the owners. The location was close to everything we needed and provided a great opportunity to explore the seawall. 10/10!

Great get-away space

It was a perfect space for a cozy, romantic get-away. Loved the space and the decor, as well as the personalized note on the chalkboard with a recommendation of an activity that we would have missed out on otherwise. Host was very accomodating. All the things we could have wanted (beach chairs/toys, gas grill, etc.) were provided.

Perfect!

The captains quarters was exactly as described. It has every thing you would need, and then some. The attention to detail was extra ordinary, and we appreciated it all. Eric, our host, was very easy to communicate with and very timely. We would definitely like to come stay there again.

Perfect Couples Get-Away

This small little cottage was the perfect choice for me and my partner. It was so cozy, themed perfectly, and so very clean! Its location is also close to everything, we walked to the Pleasure Pier one evening. I felt very safe, and the parking is tucked away so that made us feel very safe also! Don’t even hesitate! Just stay there! 😄

Our stay

The overall trip was good. Great access to the beach. Great porch and lounging place. However didn’t realize there were 2 set of stairs to get to the place. Carrying baggage , 2 ice chest etc was rather difficult. The black stone that we were using to heat our breakfast up seemed to have run out of propane. The bathtub didn’t hold the water in. I wish the fridge was bigger. Not much space to put leftovers. For the first couple of days we were the only ones parked where we were instructed to park. Then a car parked next to us. It Made itt difficult this morning trying to load side doors to my car to leave. Other than those few things it did what it was suppose to do.
