We stayed at this property last year and it was such a great place that we booked again this year. You can't beat the location, it's right on the Strand amid shops, restaurants and cool things to do, and the unit itself is clean and very comfortable. Plus, it's FUN, with the "party lights" option, surround sound music and board games. Check-in is a breeze and check-out was super smooth and easy (no overly complicated rules like some hosts can have, just reasonable simple requests), and Taryn is a friendly, responsive host. Galveston port is only about 5 minutes away so I definitely recommend flying in a couple days early to enjoy the unit before sailing. Next time we're here, we'll definitely be booking again!

What a great place! It's in a really good location, and was easy to access and extremely clean. The host was very communicative, which was so helpful and appreciated. The bathrooms are large and the beds were very comfortable. If given the chance in the future, we will definitely stay here again.

Great location! The pictures do not do this place justice. It is huge and super cool. We loved everything about Jellyfish. There are a lot of great restaurants, cafes, and bars within walking distance. It is on The Strand so don’t go for peace and quiet.

This is a great property and great communication with the host. You pay for parking and you have plenty of options so don’t let that keep you away from this great place
