Perfect for our family!

We loved this house! The place looked just like the photos. There were some past reviews mentioning a smell, we did notice it but it was not overwhelming, couldn't even smell it most of the time and it did not affect our comfortability. I loved the kitchen, cookware and utensils! The AC worked fantastic. There were no problems with either bathroom, shower or the washer and dryer, all functioned properly. The kids loved their space upstairs. We slept so good on the comfortable beds! This was our first time to Galveston, it is a lovely town, quiet at night. We would love to stay here again and 100% recommend!

Comfy Beach Vacation

We were originally set for this home but the air was not working properly, so the property manager moved us to a different home that was a lot bigger and nicer ! The yellow house was super cute and we would have enjoyed it if the air was cooling all the rooms well. My only critique would be kitchen items - the property we were moved to didn’t have a toaster and there were 4 kitchens so a toaster is a necessity! There was also no seasonings - salt/pepper at the home we were moved to. All else was great!!

Needs updating and deep cleaning

So the pictures look somewhat like what you get. Apparently it had been a while since someone had stayed there so everything was dusty. Couldn’t use the pack porch as it was covered in tree droppings. One of the couches in the living room use to be leather but it has peeled away and continues to flake so we avoided that chair. The main shower has this really nice shower head that you can change water pressure but the knob to do so is missing. Son parked his car in the driveway and we parked in the street. When we got home son had to get special stuff to clean his car cause of the tree droppings. The trees above the driveway are covered in looks like worm silk so that could be the cause. Would we stay there again. Maybe if it was updated. Oh if you park in the street be ready if you leave early and come back to have to find parking as there is a like a daycare across the street. Host was responsive to questions till we complained about the showerhead and couch then they ghosted us.

Thanksgiving in Galveston

We enjoyed this remodeled historic home located in the middle of many activities in Galveston. The off street parking was handy and the front porch very nice. I loved soaking in the claw foot tub! I think it could be much nicer if some small appliances worked and the furniture were a little newer.

Great stay

Wonderful neighborhood, part of the island I have not explored. Kitchen was disorganized and allot of items needed to be cleaned, previous tenants had “cleaned” and put away-time to take an hour and clear it out, clean it up. Only one dish rag and no dish towel, which gets gross fast

galveston weekend get away

the house was great. we traveled with our family and dog and the backyard was an awesome place to sit and relax and also safe for our dog to let her roam around. great location, close to the strand, the seawall and restaurants. The only thing i would look at, are the mattresses and bedding. Extremely hard or firm and not comfy at all. The air conditioning worked perfect, even had to throw a blanket on when the temps changed one evening Overall would definitely stay here on our next trip.

Good Not Great

This is an older house & and you are hit with the musty smell when you first enter the front door!. The living room furniture is tired - couch is new but one are chair cover is literally falling apart and the other chair is vintage 1970's. The kitchen makeover was nice. The on suite master bath makeover was nice. The AC return for the whole house is in the FLOOR of the master bath floor - OMG, come on man! Clawfoot tub in the other bathroom with no shower. Vacant house next door with windows missing. Preschool across the street makes for lots of traffic in the afternoon - we were blocked out of our driveway twice due to moms parking & blocking to retrieve kids. Would not stay here again!

Just ok.

We come to the island often as this was our home for many years. There were several issues with the home & backyard area. While the owner was promt to respond, there was no rectifying the situation during our stay. Extra charges per dog are not paid upfront. Upon arrival you're messaged to process through iTrips. The fee per pet is more than posted with an additional processing fee that was disclosed on VRBO post but not quantified. Although the property location is exactly where we wanted, we will not return. It's ok and has potential for improvements.

Not quite clean, trash overflowing when we arrived

I understand the trash may only be picked up once a week, but being welcomed by a giant pile of trash is never a good sign (hint: you can get another cart from the city at no additional cost anywhere in TX). Trash could also be found all around the premises (discarded fast food bags/containers, spent aluminum foil, trashed foldable chairs, you name it). The beds were made, but I doubt the sheets were replaced, unless the cleaning crew purposely dumped a bunch of hair on/in the beds after changing the sheets. Given what was in the pile of trash in front of the house, it looks like the house is rented to people who come to Galveston to party, and maybe their expectations are not that high--if you fall in that category, the house might work for you. If you're a family and have slightly higher expectations, pass.

Not worth the money

When walking into the house there was a bad odor. Living room: furniture was very uncomfortable. Fabric on one of the chairs was peeling of onto our clothes everytime we say down. Kitchen was beautiful but appliances was very dirty. I pulled out a spoon to use and it had dried up eggs on it. Bathrooms #1, beautiful but the towel holder holder had fallen off the wall and was on the floor next to the sink. Bathroom #2, beautiful but once I showered one of the sinks filled up with bath water. Patio cover was down and the patio furniture was dirty and full of leaves. Look like it hadn’t been cleaned in weeks. Bedrooms, beds was uncomfortable. The TV in the master bedroom did not work. The furniture was out dated and bars stool was used to hold the lamp. House temperature had to be reset several times . We had to fight flies the whole time we were there. My advice would be to remodel this house before over changing guest. I will not return!

All was great, clean and comfortable. I would recommend and stay again. The only thing I was disappointed was that VRBO cite showed the property with a hot tub. That was one of the main reasons why we picked this home. The cite should not show this if it wasn't included.
