Great communication from beginning to end. It was a perfect spring break for our family of 9. Steps from the beach and the outdoor shower was great cleaning the kiddos off before heading inside. Highly recommend!

Thanks for the 5-star review! So glad you had a great time staying with us.
This Galveston Beach House was an excellent retreat for our family of 7. There was a lot of space where we could spread out, but also come together to watch a movie or play games at the large table. We were truly steps from the beach, which allowed us to take many walks along the water, swim in the waves, set up a net for afternoon sand volleyball games, and collect interesting shells throughout our stay. We were 20 minutes or less to attractions and shopping which was very convenient. We had an issue with the dishwasher during our stay, and the host promptly had a maintenance team out for inspection, and then replacement which was much appreciated. We would highly recommend this house for families of any size, and would stay here again in the future!

Thanks for your review! We love hearing from our guests. We can’t wait to host you again soon.
It wasn’t right on the ocean, but we had a good view and it was a short walk to the beach. Probably the hardest thing for all of us was the large number of steps, especially in caring bags up and down. That’s about our age and not about the place. Thank you.

House was great, exactly as described and in the photos. Early check in was offered then not clear that it was not guaranteed. Would not recommend early check in offer, just stick with 4pm check in

Our vacation went very well...loved the location, the house was great. Anytime i had a question they were very quick to respond. We would definitely stay again. Thank you for everything!
The arrival and check in process was seamless. It’s in a great location when it comes to being near the beach and great food options. The house was just as described. Everything we needed was available. It was a great location to stay before boarding the cruise ship. 20 min drive to the port. We would stay here again.
