Great Spring Break 2025

The house was very clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed spending time on the deck with great views of the beach and ocean. We walked right out to the beach from the house. Although the instructions said to bring our own shampoo, soap, hand soap, trash bags, toilet paper etc, the house already had all of these items in ample supply. Although the pictures in the listing had furniture that was not current it was not a negative result as the current state was better than the pictures. We would book this place again.

Thanksgiving stay

Our family went to the beach for the Thanksgiving holiday. The location was wonderful. Paul is well prepared for guests and communicated with us proactively and was very responsive to questions. The home was very comfortable and clean. The kitchen had almost everything we needed and had nice appliances. The deck overlooking the beach is excellent. We enjoyed our stay very much and hope to come back soon.

Great location, nice house

We had a great stay. The location is amazing, right on the sand. Great deck and nice ground level outdoor area. The kitchen was well stocked and there was plenty of space for our party of 4. Host was very responsive. Our only complaint is that the linens need an upgrade. The sheets and towels have seen better days.

Loved our stay!

We had a great time visiting Galveston and enjoyed our stay at this property. It is quite literally "on the beach", with a great patio and exceptional view. It's about 15-20 minutes away from the main part of the island, so you are able to get out of the busiest areas and have a more relaxing place to stay with a more private beach to enjoy.

It’s a fairly small, but well laid out and well maintained first row house. Porches are great and directly overlook the beach about 25 yards away. Plenty of good deck seating. It’s just a 10 minute walk to Galveston State Park.
