Perfect Getaway
Had such a wonderful stay at this beautiful home in Galveston! The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The space itself is gorgeous, and the amenities really made the stay even better—perfect for unwinding and enjoying time with family and friends. The location was great and the whole experience was smooth from start to finish. Would absolutely stay here again!
This beach house exceeded every expectation. From the moment we walked in, we were blown away by the stunning ocean views and the peaceful atmosphere. The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and fully stocked with everything we needed. The best experience we had by far, we will definitely be back!

No dull moment!
Fully accommodating, several activities around the house and plenty of fun! Signs make the stay clear and easy on what is where, and how to work things. More than enough space! The hot tub was a fabulous addition. Lastly, the entire house is very well built as you can see that no shortcuts were taken on the build making it all come together into one beautiful stay for you and several guests! Thanks again Trenton for the experience, communication, and ease of stay!

Everything you need and more!!!
This house was perfect. It provided ample space for everyone, the kitchen was fully stocked, not only plenty of bath towels but beach towels. Just a 2 min drive across the street to the beach. A store at the front of the neighborhood for anything you might have forgotten. The outside area was extremely clean and provided more than enough activities for all ages. Best communication I have experienced with a rental.

Great Place Near the Beach
My family and I recently stayed at "On Island Time" rental over the Christmas break. It was great. The house is literally brand new as it was just built this year. It is like staying in a model home that is super comfortable and fresh. Also, the location was great. It is right across from the beach to enjoy sunsets and waves while also only a short walk to the bay as well. We had dinner in town as all the great Galveston restaurants are only a short drive away. Finally, my kids and I really loved all the outdoor amenities especially the Pool/Hot tub and tons of yard games. We definitely hope to be back!

About the host
Your host
Owners Trent and Jenny have loved Galveston Island and its relaxed beach town vibe, vibrant history, and stunning sunsets for all their lives. Jenny's family vacationed in Galveston since the 1950s and even owned a few historical homes, including the legendary Coppersmith Inn on Ave M. Even though they love traveling the world and seeing the most beautiful beaches, there is something so special right here in Galveston that can't be duplicated anywhere else. This beautiful home was built for their own family to enjoy for generations, and their heart is to share it with you and your loved ones. May this home be a blessing to you and a place where you can return year after year to make your own memories!
