Great stop over before our cruise

The apartment was absolutely charming. The owners were great and communicated fantastically. We had a small issue, but nothing they could have done about it and we still enjoyed our stay. Was a great location , and so comfortable!

Hidden Gem

Perfect honeymoon and anniversary suite, right downtown. Felt like living in another time and space. Walked everywhere. Had a real authentic experience of being in the middle of a historical Texas beach town. We will be back 🖤

No Hot Water

We had to take cold showers as the hot water never kicked in.

Response from VrboOwner on 23 Aug 2020
Its very unfortunate that 1 out of 100's of guest choose to leave negative feedback before they give the owners a chance to correct anything that was wrong. I was never called, texted or communicated with about a hot water heater. Its tank less so its on demand and never runs out. The hot water is working and I received a glowing review from the front tenant whose hot water takes twice the time to get to her room. This was an unfortunate review especially when there is a maintenance man on site that could have fixed anything immediately .

Let me start by saying, location location location. Not only was the room dreamy but the location was perfect! We were so close to everything we wanted to do. Everything about this place was right on target. The bed was incredibly cozy. The space itself was clean and spacious. Our dogs were even comfortable! We will definitely stay here again!

Weekend at The Palms

We absolutely loved our stay at Emily’s Place! The location is very nice and quiet. We brought our dog and he loved the short walk to the courthouse for a nice green space. I would highly recommend this property for a weekend getaway!

Quaint and perfect

We were in town for our daughter's orientation at Texas A&M - Galveston and our stay at "The Palms" was perfect. The loft was well appointed, bed and pillows very comfortable, and just cozy all around. Easy access to everything to top it all off. Highly recommend this property.
