Family reunion
This is a tremendous property, it had everything we desired and some. We had a slight hiccup when we arrived on Friday night, but the owners were there in about 30 minutes to straighten it out.It’s a convenient location, not immediately within the hustle and bustle of Pleasure Pier, but short drive away.I would recommend over and over.
We loved the location and layout of the beach house. The beach was perfect. However, the location lacked decent toilet paper, sufficient towels for a 14 person house, and extra blankets.
Our extended family rents a beach house in Galveston every summer. We have rented a different house every year, but we are planning to come back to this house if available for 2026!

Great Place to Stay
This place is awesome. It provides a breathtaking view of the beach. The house is comfortable and has everything you need. I will definitely rent it again. We had a large group and all enjoyed the property.
We had a group of 14 friends stay here following a school event. The house layout was perfect for our needs and was immaculately clean and well-stocked. Communication was smooth and efficient. The best part was being able to see the water from the house and just a two minute walk to the beach.
Our family had a great time and enjoyed our stay. We appreciated the close proximity to the beach, the big windows facing the ocean, the well stocked kitchen, the extra snacks they provided, the variety of children's books and games, and the modern interior design, furnishings and decor. We would all enjoy coming back to stay again in the future.
Sadly weather did not cooperate , property is very nicely decorated , clean, good beach location , you can see beach from house . All bedrooms except one on entrance level , kitchen living and one bedroom upstairs , would definitely stay again .
The House is amazing we had plenty of room for our family of 6
very clean and well stocked. Games, Ice maker!!!!
we loved it.
easy access to the beach and beautiful views
We can wait to go back!!!
Good space, close to the beach, plenty of kitchen supplies, 25 minutes to pleasure pier, bring your own beach chairs & canopy

Great home
The layout of the house was perfect. Several balconies to view to the beach. Just a lovely home.
Not many stores near the house so come prepared with all groceries you may need.
The house was very clean, well furnished, and stocked with lots of extras. Great place for people who can climb lots of stairs.

Friend Vacation
We had the most incredible stay at this beach house! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning views, the clean and beautifully decorated interior, and the overall attention to detail throughout the property. The house was exactly as described—if not better—and fully equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing and stress-free vacation.Waking up to the sound of the waves and enjoying coffee on the deck was an absolute dream. The location is ideal—just steps from the beach yet private enough to feel like our own little slice of paradise. The host was responsive, kind, and made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.Whether you’re looking for a peaceful retreat or a fun family getaway, this beach house checks all the boxes. We’re already talking about coming back again soon. Highly, highly recommend!

From the owner:
"Thank you so much for the great feedback. We’re glad you had a wonderful stay! Hope to see you again soon!"
The house was beautiful just like the pictures. The location was perfect, accesses to the beach very convenient, views of the gulf from the decks was beautiful!
One of the pocket doors to the shared Hollywood bathroom was off the track and this was somewhat inconvenient. Also there was no community pool access as advertised.
We had a great time on our stay!
