This is a perfect place for a family to come. It was the perfect setup. It was clean and no unpleasant smells. Enough bathrooms for all, nice setup for cleaning up after the beach. Fun beach toys for use. Walk to beach is easy & safe. AC worked well. Plenty of seating for everyone. Great property& responsive helpful owners.
Beautiful home, very well stocked (thank you!). Very clean! Perfect location to the beach. Very comfortable. Will place on our list of favorites! Only mention would be that we thought there would be coffee with the coffee bar. Everything thing else was great!
Everything went great. Tons of places to sleep, literally a two minute walk to a private beach, and close enough to the city to duck out for dinner or groceries. We'll be coming back.
Very cute place, easy walking distance to the beach with 3 kids ages 4-6. Downstairs bedrooms perfect for the adults and bunk room was fun for the boys. Quick responses from the host for the couple of questions I had!
Wonderful property ! Great location , quiet area can hear the ocean from the balcony. 2 min walk to the beach, beds are super comfortable every one said it was the best vacation house we've had. Highly recommend this place if i could give more then 5 stars i would !
The location is great not far away from all activities
Excellent location, plenty of parking, easy access to the beach and it was good to have a full bathroom downstairs that way we did not have to go upstairs to use the bathroom.

Thank you Ramon for allowing us to host your family! Thank you for your kind words! Hope to see you all again soon.
The home is as described. Compact, well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, walking distance to beach. Host responded quickly especially to my questions the week of check in. Quiet location away from Galveston proper congestion during holiday or peak season but close enough to grocery store and attractions. We would stay again.
10 out of 10!! Great house, great amenities, steps away from the beach, and close to all of the fun on the seawall and Strand!!! So happy to have found this listing and would definitely return!!
We had a fabulous stay at the house. The girls enjoyed having the bunk room to themselves and we older ladies enjoyed the bedrooms on the main level. So happy to have a walk-in shower. Kitchen facilities were great and it was really nice having access to the washer and dryer. Would definitely recommend it. My favorite place was sitting on the porch watching the waves and the pelican fly-bys.
Great property close to everything. We had a group of 6 guys and it accommodated all of us. This was a great location for doing everything at the Lone Star Rally.

Thank you for choosing us to host your group for the Lone Star Rally! Loved seeing your cool bikes & awesome group picture in front of our house. Would love to host you all again next year!
Loved this property and easy beach access, also not too far from Seawall. First time staying in a rental away from the main strip or a hotel and we loved it. Definitely recommend this location and this host.

About the host
Hosted by Jeffrey Thompson
We are a Houston based family with a love for the beach. We frequent Galveston’s west beaches on weekends and throughout the summer. We enjoy sailing our catamaran out on the Gulf of Mexico, long sunset walks, and building sandcastles on the beach. This is our family vacation beach house and we hope you love it as much as we do!
Why they chose this property
The Spanish Grant Subdivision is located with close proximity to shops, restaurants and attractions. The rich history, unique restaurants and shops in downtown Galveston add to the overall getaway experience. The house is minutes from all the local Galveston attractions but far enough from the sea wall to enjoy the quiet, peaceful beach. The beach has restricted vehicle access making it a private beach that makes it uncrowded regardless of weekend or holiday. No vehicle traffic on the beach makes it perfect for children.
