Amazing beach house experience

Our family met here for a reunion/vacation and it was fantastic. The house was gorgeous, and maybe even nicer than the photos on the listing. And the location and neighborhood are outstanding. Beds were super comfortable, appliances were top of the line, every aspect of the house was top notch. I can’t say enough good things. And the property managers were friendly, helpful and responsive. It deserves a 10 rating. Worth every penny!

Stay at the Beach

The house was perfect walking distance from the beach. Check in process was easy and the host was easy to communicate with before/during our stay. The house is VERY roomy, clean and well stocked with all the needed supplies. New construction next door was taking place during the daytime so sitting on the deck to visit was noisy but during the evening it was perfect able to sit out there and listen to the ocean. So peaceful!

Great Family Gathering!

Perfect house for a family gathering with kids of all ages. The open concept living and kitchen area provided plenty of room for everyone to congregate and kids still had room to play. The back porch provides great views of the beach. Bedrooms are spacious and allow everyone their own space. We had a great time and hope to return sometime soon!

Beautiful home

This home is wonderful! The kitchen and living area were perfect for our family. All the bedrooms were great, we appreciated they all had king sized beds for the adults and the bunk room was awesome for our kids. The pack and play and highchair were awesome to use. The walk to the pedestrian beach was just a few houses down. We enjoyed our stay and will return again.

Beautiful beach house ! Amazing views!

There are so many positive comments to make on this rental. The owners were extremely easy to park with, the house was thoughtfully equipped, beautiful furnishings, a great layout, multiple balconies with amazing views, great patio with grilling area, a short walk to a semiprivate beach.the one con, mentioned in the description and which will go away, is the next door construction and the close proximity to a drive on beach.

Stunning Beachfront Home

This was such an incredible home and suited our large group perfectly. The kitchen had gourmet appliances and many smaller appliances to help with meal prep. Having patios and porches on all of the bedroom and living areas and the weather was perfect to enjoy them. Although we had no babies or toddlers needing equipment that was available as well.

Family Trip

The beach house is brand new and beautiful! The home décor is crisp, clean and very inviting. This house has everything a family could need to have a wonderful time in Galveston! We loved the large patio area on the ground floor, the outdoor kitchen, the two large balconies with amazing views and the gigantic kitchen island! The private beach is just a short distance and very easily accessible. Our host Holly was amazing and answered all of our questions promptly! We will definitely be back soon! Thank you for sharing this beautiful home with us! We made memories that will last a lifetime!

impeccable Home on the Beach

We were very impressed with our stay from the very beginning to the last second. This might be the cleanest home we’ve ever stayed in and we have high standards for cleanliness. The host was very communicative. They told us way in advance of the building happening next door so we were aware of the loud noises that started early in the morning. They also informed us of a broken decorative light in the kitchen that the renters right before us broke that they didn’t have time to correct before our check in. We had smoke detectors begin beeping in the middle of the night that were too high to reach. They responded to our message promptly letting us know they’d send someone out in the morning. All of this were understandable things that come up and didn’t affect our stay too much. The maintenance men who came were kind and professional. We also let them know of a leaking window above a bed (likely a building error that went unnoticed until a heavy thunderstorm with high winds came in while we were there). I have no doubt they’ll take care of it soon based on their prior response time. We cannot wait to return. This will be our new go to in Galveston!
