Perfect house for two families

House was ideal for a weeklong trip with two families. The host was very welcoming and immediately responded to any questions we had. I would book this house again

Vacation Oasis at the Flip Flop

From the moment we booked the Flip Flop Inn to our final day, hostess Kelly was OUTSTANDING! She graciously accommodated our earlier arrival with a cute welcome basket of goodies and a reminder to let her know if we needed anything. She even checked with us to be sure we were doing well part way through our stay. Flip Flop was PERFECT for our two families to meet for a much needed vacation! The pool and hot tub were WELL used by all, several rounds of pool were played, and a few of the games available during the evening indoors. It is well appointed with all the fixin's - linens, beach/pool towels, extra blankets to cozy up, and let me get started on the kitchen! The older kids LOVED the loft and the bunk room was just right for the younger ones. So close to many attractions and dining (but we stayed in A LOT) even finding time to bake. If we head back down to Galveston, we will absolutely book the Flip Flop Inn with Kelly - you should too!

Great find!!

We all enjoyed our stay at the Flip Flop Inn!! It had an awesome hangout space in the back with a pool, hot tub, and pool table. Would be a great place for people with kids as well. We will definitely be back!

We are "Islanders By Choice" and have lived here for over 20 years. We love Galveston and feel like you will too!!

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property after the infamous Hurricane Ike, planning on using it for a long-term rental. However a turn of events led our family to moving in and making it our permanent home in 2009. As our older children grew up and moved out we starting thinking about vacation rental potential and seeing what a blessing this home could be to other families and groups!
With its convenient location to just about everything great that Galveston has to offer, yet with a homey feel that will make your vacation a special one!
