Family vacation

This property was absolutely perfect for our group. We even found a baby gate to block the stairs for our very curious almost 2 year old. It was VERY clean and free of sand, even though it is about 20 feet from the beautiful private beach.

Nice vacation spot. Beach is private since you can't drive on the beach in that area. Kids enjoyed playing on the beach and looking for crabs at night with flashlights.

Great vacation spot! Unfortunately, the weather wasn't as nice!

We had a great time at the at the rental! It was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The owner Bernadette was great to work with and took care of some minor issues. We would go back in a minute! We're looking forward to our next trip to Galvaston.

best rental house

We are a family of 6 adults and (5 kids - ages 5 to 10). All the adults stated it was the best place on the beach that we have stayed. It was spacious and very clean. The view of the gulf was great and the short walk to the beach was fantastic. Especially for the kids. It was well stocked with everything needed. All we needed to bring was clothes, beach towels and food/drinks. Loved going through the front door up the stairs to the upper level and not having to climb stairs on the outside of the house. The beds were comfortable. The deck had a nice big table to use for some of us to enjoy our meals outside.

I could not have asked for a better stay in Galveston. Far enough away from town but close enough to go in if you need to. everything about this house is perfectly cozy, with amazing views off both decks. the additional touch of beach toys and chairs in the garage were such a welcome addition that it was so helpful. I cannot recommend a better spot in all of Galveston Island!

Wonderful Stay

We had an amazing time on our trip. The property is a short distance from the beach, making it super easy for bringing chairs, canopy, toys, coolers, etc. The views were amazing, the house was clean and stocked with anything you would need. Bernadette was also super sweet when I had a question about something. We will definitely stay here again!

Ocean views

Do you like having coffee and watching the ocean from the porch? Do you like being so close to the beach you can watch your family play from the balcony and wave to them? Maybe you like lots of sleeping options at a super reasonable rate per night. Yes to all of it. We always stay right on beach front properties and this one was really quaint, clean and had plenty of room for everyone.

Family vacation

House was perfect for our family vacation! We had our 8 kids ages 7 to 18 and everyone had fun! The house was big enough for everyone, very clean, beach access was easy, parking was good, house was stocked with the essentials. Check in was easy, host messaged prior to check in, was quick to reply and we had no issues the whole week!! I would definitely recommend!!

Perfect Spring Break!

We had such a good time. The house was beautiful and spacious and comfortable. Steps from the beach so we could run back up to the house if we needed something. It was just a very special time for us. We are already thinking about booking another trip. Thank you.

Wonderful Spring Break

This house was perfect for our family of 5, although there are plenty of beds for bigger families! The kitchen was fully stocked and the bathrooms had extra TP. The views are lovely, we had lots of wind and rain but that didn’t stop us from enjoying the balconies and the beach. We even spent some time on the porch swing. Thank you for the lovely stay.

Fantastic location and set up

This house has it all in terms of fully stocked kitchen and excellent location just steps from the beach. There were a couple of issues related to cleanliness when we arrived, but management made it right. I would stay here again - being able to take a walk on the beach any time day or night is a huge plus. One suggestion is to put a curtain or shade on the window in the trundle room (looks like something has been there in the past but has fallen down?) because the sun comes up and shines directly in there in the morning. The master bedroom door is warped and does not remain closed, but i think that can be easily adjusted. Just a few tweaks and this is easily a 5 star stay. We look forward to coming back to see how it's improved upon.
