The house was exceptional, beds comfortable, golf cart was amazing. The home is furnished and in a very quiet neighborhood convenient to restaurants, beach walkover and short drive to The Strand. We all loved it so much and would love to rent it again!

Thank you Alan! Beachtown has many awesome rental homes, all very close to the water; you found a gem when you chose this house! Come and see us again soon!
This property was the best rental we’ve ever had! We’ve been vacationing all over the country for 45 yrs and have had some lovely rentals but this one ranks #1 on our list. The amenities provided were over the top!

Thanks Sheryl! What a compliment! We love hosting families like yours and welcome you back anytime!
Very nice place, will be where we stay for all future Galveston trips. Beach was close and clean. Not crowded at all. Home offered a ton of amenities like ping pong, hatchet throwing, bags, it had a golf cart and all the beach gear you could need. Well stocked home, and the downstairs shower made coming back from the beach nice not having to track sand in.

This is our second time staying in this property and it was just as nice as the first time. The house is stocked with snacks and drinks and full of fun things to do like bicycles, a gold cart, and beach toys. We would definitely stay here again in the future.

Thanks for taking the time to send us a review. We hope you get the chance to visit us again soon!
House was great as listed. Beds were very comfortable. The owner provided tons of amenities to ensure a comfortable stay. One small issue with cleanliness but was rectified quickly, easily, and to our satisfaction. Will stay again!

Thanks, Meredith! Again, we apologize for the oversight - please know that is not our standard but we are happy to see you guys were pleased with the stay overall and look forward to seeing you again!
We expected a nice venue based on the description in the listing but were really blown away by this house. The bedrooms worked perfectly for two adult couples, a teen aged boy with a friend, an 11 year old miss princess, and a couple of dogs. Supplies in the pantry were overwhelming and the cupboards were full of everything we needed.

Thanks for the awesome review, Philip! Your family is welcome back anytime!
We had a fantastic stay. The home is well kept and has everything you need. The screened in porch is perfect for hanging out in - the mosquitos are out of control! We enjoyed the easy beach access. And the golf cart was so helpful in carting our 3 kids (ages 4, 2, and 1) around the grounds. We hope to come back!

Hi Nicole, we are so glad to hear you enjoyed your stay! Although we continuously treat for mosquitos, they are pesky at times making that screened-in porch a lifesaver, especially for the little ones and pets. Thanks for the great review!
Our stay was wonderful. The house was great, from the decor, finishings and all the amenities the house provided.
we definitely will be returning. Only suggestion is maybe some fans downstairs to help with mosquitoes, but other than that the house was amazing.

We had an amazing family getaway for Thanksgiving at this property! The easy access to the beach, combined with its fantastic location and spacious layout, made our stay truly enjoyable. The house was impeccably set up and thoughtfully appointed, providing everything we needed for a comfortable and memorable visit. Our host went above and beyond to ensure we had all the essentials, making it feel like our own summer retreat. This experience is truly what every host should strive for. We loved every moment and can't wait to return. Thank you for everything!

This house is a dream for a vacation. They graciously provided anything and everything you could ever need while on vacation to the beach. The house was stocked to the gills. Easy walk to the beach. Golf cart ride to the pool. It all was wonderful. Kept the kids entertained for sure!

Thanks, Erin, we are so glad you enjoyed yourself. Feel free to come stay again anytime!
We enjoyed our stay so much over Memorial Day weekend. The property is great for large families or group of friends. In all of our years of travel, this is the most thoughtful host by far. Anything you might need is provided. House is beautifully furnished, safe, quiet and easily accessible. Outdoor spaces are so nice, relaxing, comfortable and scenic. Screened in porch is a definite plus and has a lovely view. The beach is very close - just a short walk to the sand - chairs and umbrellas provided upon request - no crowds. Would most definitely rebook - the community has Seaside, Florida vibes without the hassle and drive.

Thanks Maria! Beachtown is definitely a hidden oasis in Galveston that many people don't know about. Once they discover it, there isn't another place that can top it. We welcome you back anytime and hope to see you soon!
We shared this rental with another family -10 in all - and had such a wonderful time. close to the beach. well kept property. the mosquitoes were quite bad - but i think that’s because of the recent rain. definitely recommend repellant and even spray for the stairs and garage.
the screened in porch is lovely and fun to watch the boats come into the port.
would recommend highly for families looking forward a beach getaway.
It was a great stay for New Year's for us. The house is clean and beautiful. The amenities are amazing. The kitchen was stocked with snacks and drinks. There were plenty of beach toys and towels in the garage. The only minor snafu was that I had to reach out to the property manager to get the code to enter the home. It was not sent to us. There was also confusion regarding the wifi password. It was still a great weekend and we would definitely stay here again.

This house is a guest favorite! We are glad you enjoyed it and hope to see you again! Please know that we have eliminated any issues with check-in at this house.
I don’t even know where to start as this home has set the highest bar for rentals. I don’t think we can stay anywhere else now! The owner has gone over the top with what they offer to guests. The home has literally everything you need and things you didn’t think you needed! The decor is stunning, the quality of the items (kitchen, bath, bedding, etc) is luxury! We felt like we were staying at our friend’s place with just how nice and comfortable it was. The house is 50 yards from the beach walkover, so it’s incredibly easy to go back and forth to the beach if you need to. The beach itself feels so private and the whole neighborhood is so quiet and peaceful, not like the other party areas where you never know what you’re going to hear at night. Seriously this place is the best and I hope the owner never stops renting it because we will be back again and again, thank you!

Wow Carla, thanks for such an awesome review! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay in Beachtown and can't wait to see you and your family again.
Beautiful home. I gave it 4 stars for cleanliness as it was dusty but nothing we couldn't take care of.The place was stocked with snacks and spices and drinks. It had all the necessities that would be needed for your stay.The kids room was staged with age appropriate books and they had games fir all ages. They also had new lego sets that were age appropriate for them. They had so much fun putting them together. The screened in porch was great for gathering and the view was great. The pool was a distance away but the golf cart provided was perfect for hauling all our towels and pool toys that were provided. The downstairs kitchen and grilling area were perfect and games were provided there also.It was a dream vacation home for our family of 8. The host went above and beyond any other host that we have encountered. I see the unit is for sale so I hope the next host is as accommodating. We would stay here again if coming back to Galveston.
We loved this property! The photos online are quite accurate as to its beautiful design and decor. It was lovely inside and out. Still, it exceeded our expectations. A dream beach house and I loved pretending it was mine! Very nice to have everything on one floor. Cozy yet spacious and very well appointed. Just a very short walk across the street to the beach access. We really enjoyed the bayside view with breezes rustling through the grasses, birds, sunrise and sunset, barges drifting to and from the ship channel, and even a side view of the Gulf surf. The house next to this is set back so the view is encompassing and no structures are behind the house. Glorious solitude on this screened in porch! The management here is excellent and check-in, check-out is very easy and they are very responsive to help and answer any questions. The rental cost is totally worth it for these lovely homes in this unique community so close to the historical district and all the best that Galveston has to offer. We will be back and it would be hard to not rebook this particular property. First class!
We had a WONDERFUL stay! The property was just as described, location to the beach was awesome and the beach itself was not crowded at all, allowed our kids plenty of space to roam safely. The house was great for our group!!
