Thanks for taking time to submit the nice review. I appreciate it.
Perfect spot. Literally can walk across the street to the beach and beautiful ocean sceneries. Restaurants are all so close, it was so nice to unwind. House was cozy and very accommodating. You will love it. Pam was very courteous and communicated well.
So happy you enjoyed your stay at the Seawall Cabana. I try my best to make it a pleasant and memorable experience for my guests. Please consider staying at the Cabana in the future. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed your stay at Seawall Cabana and had fun in Ga;veston. Thank you for taking time to submit a review of the house. Please come back again.
Great location and host! Very clean and well furnished. We particularly enjoyed the elevated deck and the restaurants within walking distance. The host had included information about special island events during our stay, which we greatly appreciated. We hope to return soon!

Thank you for choosing Seawall Cabana for your Galveston visit. Glad you enjoyed everything. Please come back again. Thank you for reviewing the accomodations.
My family stayed at the seawall cabana last year for spring break and were happy that it was available again this spring break! My kids love the beach toys and chairs and the location is great to the beach and things in town. The owner is the nicest and responds to everything promptly. We can’t wait to stay here again!

Thank you for choosing Seawall Cabana and for taking the time to submit a review. So glad you had a pleasant experience. I hope the convenient location to the beach, restaurants, and entertainment added to your overall pleasant experience. All you have to do is walk across the street to the beach. Past guests have all told me how much they liked the " off the street parking" on the property. And there is no extra charge for that.
I try very hard to see that everything is in working order and very clean in the house. Have stayed in many hotels and know what needs to be done!
Hope you will consider it a pleasure to choose to stay at Seawall Cabana again in the future.

We absolutely loved staying at this property. It is a great location. The private parking is so convenient
The Host, Pam, thought of everything we could have needed including boogie boards and sand castle toys. The beds were comfortable and the A/C worked great which was very much appreciated after spending a day at the beach in July. Wish we could have stayed longer!
We easily walked to Pleasure Pier, the beach, and restaurants.
My kids and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Seawall Cabana. The house was very clean and the perfect size for the 4 of us. We had a great time sitting on the elevated deck with the view of Pleasure Pier and we also liked sitting on the spacious front porch. The owner made some great restaurant recommendations which enhanced our trip as well. It was easy to cross the street to get to the beach.

We really enjoyed our stay here and the close proximity to the beach and restaurants was a huge plus! Very short walking distance to The Spot restaurant, and after dinner we made our way to the shore for a moonlit walk. The home was well equipped and met all our needs, exceeding expectations. Wonderfully close to the beach, did I mention? We plan to come back and book this place again!

Thank you Pam for a wonderful place, we had a BLAST! Perfect location right in the middle of all the action. Great to be in walking distance to where all the fun is, if you know what I mean. Look to do it again. Thanks

Glad you had a good time and were comfortable at the Seawall Cabana. It is a great location and I try my best to think ahead as to what guests may like or need. Another plus besides location is the driveway on the property where you don’t have to park on the street or pay to park. Hope you will come visit again.
This is our fifth year to stay in this wonderful house in Galveston. The house is located right in the heart of Galveston’s restaurant and nightlife, walking distance to the Pleasure Pier and just right across the street from the beach. The owner is wonderful to communicate with and will make sure your stay is the best. I recommend this house to everyone!

My family of 4 absolutely loved our stay! The house was so close to the beach and The Spot and a short drive to the Strand. We had everything we needed at the house. We had breakfast on the back porch every morning and enjoyed the beach views. Can’t wait to come back! We’ve already agreed when we visit Galveston again we’ll be booking our stay here! :)

I was so happy to have you stay at the Seawall Cabana recently. Thank you for the nice review. Helps others decide if they will be comfortable there. Yes, the "off the street" parking is a plus. The driveway is long enough to accommodate 3 cars in tandem. (And there is "no extra charge" to park off the street.). Looking forward to you returning!
Absolutely love this house on Seawall! Perfect, little house for a fun getaway! Seawall is completely walkable from the house and tons of things to do. Pam is the best host, very responsive! She gives great recommendations.House is clean and cozy !! Anything you need is there!! We can’t wait to come back! See you soon!

Extremely clean with personal touches ….. the owner is super nice and left us an Anniversary card with sweet message and mimosa fixings. Such a sweet gesture! House is in center of activity. We enjoyed sitting on deck with view of Pleasure Pier and ocean.

Thank you for taking the time to review the cabana and your experience with the booking. So glad you enjoyed yourselves. Looking forward to welcoming you again in the future!
A true sample of excellent hospitality!
Without doubt one of our favorite vrbo homes. My husband and I took a trip for our Anniversary. Upon arrival were welcomed by a beautifully decorated and refreshing bottle of Pinot Grigio! The property owner was extremely friendly and helpful during our stay. We had two great evenings here and the home was beautifully decorated in a vintage Galveston fashion that is definitely worth experiencing.
We truly enjoyed the convenience of being within walking distance of many of many of the venues. The view of the ocean and the pier from the deck was a plus.
Our experience at the Seawall Cabana was very pleasant. Pam has provided me information regarding the property and recommendations on activities and food even before our arrival date. The property is very clean. Our 3yo enjoyed the beach toys and the games in the house. And you cannot beat the location, especially during a holiday weekend. We were walking distance to the beach and the parade, so we didn’t have to worry about parking. While it is next to a hotel and a restaurant/bar, we were not bothered by noise and fireworks once we were inside. I definitely recommend this place.

Thank you for taking time to submit a review on the Seawall Cabana. It was hard to find a quiet spot in Galveston for the 4th of July weekend! Yes, it is next to a hotel and a restaurant, but also a clean and safe location. And 1/2 block to the beach. I heard fireworks til 3:00 a.m.! It was definitely happening in Galveston that weekend! Please come again, I'll leave the porch light on. Thanks again. Pam
This cute little house is just as described. It is across the street from the beach, and right in the heart of the action. There is a parking spot on the property, which is a big plus. You can easily see the Pleasure Pier and the water from the back deck. It is an easy walk to the Pier and several restaurants, you'll need a car if you want to go to the historic strand (which you should visit).
The house is homey, the kitchen is functional (you're not going to cook Thanksgiving dinner here, but for quick breakfast and lunch it is perfect). Although every part of the house was sparkling clean, the linens and towels are a bit worn. The master bedroom has a sleep number bed for comfort (we didn't sleep on any of the bunk beds).
The only thing to pay attention to about this house is the location. It is literally right behind a restaurant (as stated in the description) which adds sounds and smells to the back deck.
The owner was very responsive and flexible and easy to deal with. We didn't have any issues, but if we had, I'm sure she would have fixed them.
Overall a nice, comfortable stay.

Thank you for your thorough and descriptive review of the property. I am glad you had a nice time in Galveston and the house in general was to your satisfaction. Since your visit, I installed a brand new flat screen TV for the living room as a result of a more recent review. I have retired the towels you referred to. So, I listen to the reviews and act upon suggestions. Thank you again for taking the time to submit a very helpful review.
First, Pam is a wonderful person and great host. The accuracy of the online listing is very high. Had we not read all of the reviews we could have been disappointed, however. So come on in with your eyes wide open. It is across the street from the beach and walking distance to the pleasure pier and many other places. That's a huge plus for us. The house is really cute. It is a very noisy location, however. Bands at the Spot on weekends, garbage trucks very early in the ally right by the bedroom wall going to the Spot. Delivery trucks to the Spot all the time and early in the morning. The deck in the back is as advertised but there are times that the aroma of garbage from the Spot restaurant is a bit much, especially with flocks of seagulls dive bombing the same. Sometimes the aroma of good food is very nice, however. And sometimes, and most of the time, it's just the aroma of the gulf that you experience. So this is a place where you take the good with the bad, like all places. The front porch is amazing for people watching when the back porch is not so fun. The house has the feeling of Galveston and that's what we loved. Again, the close proximity to everything, including the beach, was a major draw for us. I hope this is a fair and balanced review. Said all this, we would definitely stay there again.

Thank you for your fair and honest review. I really appreciate it. I did not know about the issues with the seagulls dive bombing the garbage (The restaurant should not be leaving garbage sitting out. It should be taken to the dumpster) or the early morning dumpster pick up. I am working with the city code enforcement division to correct this situation from the restaurant behind the house. I am sorry you had to experience this and the inconvenience. If you come again, next time, let me know about issues while you are still here so I can address the situation before you leave. I always tell my guests to let me know if they need anything because I live close by and could have done something about it early on. Yes, there are pros and cons with everything. It is a wonderful location, cute and very clean house, with all the amenities you should need, including free wifi and free washer and dryer. You listed in your review all the pros and cons. Which is very helpful for people trying to decide if it is a good fit for them. You were here on Memorial Day weekend. Very busy and noisy, I agree. July 4, Lone Star Rally, and Mardi Gras are busy and noisy as well. Other times, reasonably calm, but not always. Summertime is busy, too. But, you can't beat the location for the beach, restaurants and the Pleasure Pier. It is a happening area! I'm glad you would stay here again!
