Great house and location, mold issues
We stayed at this house with our 3 young children for 3 nights, and in general, we had a great time on our vacation. We did have some concerns, though, so here are the pros and cons of our experience: Pros: - Lovely house with lots of room to spread out, lots of deck space, and hard floors throughout makes it easy to clean up after the beach - Easy walk to a part of the Galveston beaches that are rarely crowded - Outdoor shower, beach wagon, bin full of beach toys for little kids, and a grill - Large, well stocked kitchen with a table big enough to seat 6-8 people - Friendly and accommodating owners Cons: - When we stayed, the dishwasher didn't work and the washing machine had significant mold in it, so we hand-washed all the dishes and skipped washing clothes (not a disaster, but inconvenient) - More of a concern, there was significant mold in the air conditioning system that gave my family a pretty severe allergic/asthmatic flare-up that lasted several weeks. Galveston is a humid place, so this is common, but still worth mentioning. Please note that the owners were very polite and willing to work with us to resolve the issues. They understand the problems and are committed to fixing them, so it's likely that our concerns might have been resolved by the time you rent this house.

Great location and clean
One and a half blocks from the beach and very clean. Note that there are a lot of stairs since the house is on stilts, the main bedroom is on the second floor and you go up a half flight of stairs for the main bathroom.

Galveston Vacation
This beach house was perfect for our family of 5 which includes three children. The location was perfect! The house was a short walk to the beach and was also a short drive to all the fun stuff in Galveston. We found the beds very comfortable and the kitchen was great with everything that we needed. The host had a fast response to every question along with helpful information. Only one small thing to point out was that the washing machine is in need of a deep clean, but we were happy the house came with one. Overall our stay here was wonderful.

About the host

Hosted by Tanya & Matthew Nguyen

Host profile image
My husband and I built this house for ourselves after we've exhausted our search for a perfect vacation home for our family. We started groundbreaking on February 14, 2008 and were just putting on finishing touches the weekend before Hurricane IKE made landfall on Galveston Island on September 10, 2008. Needless to say, it was our longest weekend with lots of anticipation and expectation. Fortunately, the house was practically untouched after the storm. We have been using it for ourselves and for our extended families since. Everyone just loves our house. Our priorities have changed as the kids are heading to college and we decided to begin renting out our house. So here goes the beginning of our new venture.
