The communication throughout our stay was exceptional—without a doubt the best we’ve experienced with any hosting company. We were initially a bit concerned about parking, particularly because we arrived late at night, but it proved to be simple and convenient. The apartment was impeccably clean, tastefully decorated, and very comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would gladly choose this property again whenever we return.

Clean and beautiful. It was a great and fun experience. I will say that I somehow missed that we had to go up 45 stairs, and with all our suitcases (we had 7) that was rough. Other than that it was amazing!

this was my husband's and my second stay at this property and would stay again. Clean property and excellent communication with host. No issues accessing the property. Note that this is on the Strand side of the island (not the "beach side"), which is our preferred area to stay when visiting Galveston. It is also an old building, so the windows are not soundproof! (read: you will hear street noise). if that bothers you, you may want to consider other properties. The walls, however, are solid :-) (read: you will not hear noise from other guests in the building).

Perfect Galveston Strand Getaway

We had a great time. It was nicely furnished and had a perfect location for enjoying time on the Strand. So many options near by and everything is walkable. We will definitely come again some time!
