The night before cruise

We stayed here the night before a cruise. Loved the balcony and hearing the great tailed grackle, visited a brewery just a few minutes walk away and Katie’s seafood restaurant was excellent. Also, less than a mile from Royal Caribbean terminal.

Friends Cruise

We stayed here the night before our cruise and this place has it all. Amazing place to stay!!! We sat on the deck and people watched all evening. Walking distance to shops, restaurants, and views of the Port. Royal Caribbean is like 2 blocks and Carnival about 4 blocks away. All the amenities you could ever need. Highly recommend!

Perfect Location

We had such an amazing stay! The hosts were absolutely wonderful—so friendly and accommodating. The place was immaculate and in a prime location, just steps from The Strand and surrounded by tons of great bars and restaurants. Having access to the garage was a huge plus since parking in the area can be tricky. We especially loved the balcony—it was the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a cocktail in the evenings. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again!

Perfect location, amenities galore!

Walked into one of the cleanest, inviting places we have ever stayed. Beautiful rooms, private balcony was very enjoyable too. AC worked great! Bed was super comfortable, plenty of room and closet was very large with extras like blankets, cot, cooler and even an iron. Kitchen was stocked with so many things that made the stay even better. Two kinds of coffee makers. Fancy Keurig and drip coffee pot too. Private garage with bikes for us to use. 10/10. Will definitely stay here anytime we’re in Galveston.

3 night pre cruise stay

The property was just as the pictures are. The location of the property probably couldn’t have been better. Located right next to the strand, yet it was still quiet. I really liked being able to use the balcony at night. The property was clean. We didn’t drive there but if you had a vehicle there is a nice one car garage attached to the place. We did ask the property owner one question and the response was quick. If I were to ever stay in Galveston again I wouldn’t hesitate to book this property again.

This place is unique and has a great location to The Strand and cruise terminals. The garage was such a great perk to park our rental car. Very clean and inviting. We will book this every time when we cruise out of Galveston.

Anniversary & Baby's 1st Trip

The location of this rental couldn’t be any better. Steps away from the strand and harborside restaurants. We really appreciated the garage at street level, so nice not having to park on the street. The interior was perfectly decorated and set up with everything you could need. The balcony is another great feature. Our 3 month old loved sitting in her rocker in front of the window. The bedroom was spacious, with a very comfortable bed. Enough room to fit the bassinet next to the bed. We will definitely be renting this property again in the future!

Very happy

Rented this property for a getaway with my sister and brother-in-law. It’s a lovely place and the hosts provide everything you could need, from games and throw blankets to beach toys and bikes. It’s very clean. Loved the location, just around the corner from the Strand and Post Office Street with lots of great boutique and gallery shopping and restaurants, and just a couple of blocks from the harbor. There’s a water view from the balcony. And the big garage is icing on the cake. Bedrooms/bathrooms on two different levels provided plenty of privacy with a nice living room to share. Stay here - you won’t regret it.
