Perfect Weekend Getaway

We enjoyed our stay. The owner is fantastic to work with. He responded quickly to any questions we had. The home was very clean and welcoming. The front balcony is really nice. It's a great space to hang out with a group or just sit and read a book. The living and kitchen areas are open, so there is much space for a large group. The public beach access is less than a mile away, so we were able to get in some great beach time. There is so much space between the houses on the street. There were two large groups near us, but we couldn't hear them because of the open space outside. We will definitely recommend this home to our friends and family.

Perfect family weekend getaway

My family and I loved the casita. The host was super sweet and communication was great! My nephew (he’s 5) even recommended all of it’s moving into the house together. 😂 In other words the house was great and super cozy!

Amazing stay

We loved staying at this beach house. Clean, nicely decorated, easy communication with the owner. I loved that it was furnished, especially in the kitchen!!! I would recommend a fan for the porch and maybe one downstairs where the bar is. I think that would help with mosquitoes. Over all 10 across the board!! Will stay again.....hopefully soon!

Much Needed Family Getaway

Our family was so happy with our stay at the beach house. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves and the amenities provided. This location really was perfect for families! We had 2 under 10 and 1 teenager, they each had a great time. My 5 year old loved the legos and games the house provided. We also enjoyed the patio every evening! Truly made some great memories here. The host was fantastic at timely communication. We definitely recommend this house for families.

Galveston 2024

The house was everything we needed for our week in Galveston. Marcus was quick to reply to texts, and gave us recommendations on places to bring our kids during our stay. During our stay, the dryer wasnt working properly, and Marcus immediately scheduled an appointment to have someone come look at it. Everything was fixed and worked great afterwards. The patio, and the toys/games in the garage were great at keeping our kids occupied while enjoying being outside. When we come back down, we'll absolutely be seeing if this rental is available again!

Galveston Stay

Our stay in Galveston did not disappoint! The house was perfect for our needs. The communication with the manager was wonderful. The location was great! Far enough outside of town to give us a remote quiet beach but close enough for us to get into town quickly when we needed to. The porch, we spent so much time just lounging! Our girls are on a competitive cheer team so we are always on the run and this house was such a relaxing blessing. We all commented how nice it was just to sit on the porch and rock. I would definitely reccomend this house! It contributed to a wonderful weekend full of laughter and memories.

Awesome Galveston Getaway!

This is a very cozy and comfortable house, and an easy walk to the beach. The front deck is great, and I especially loved the bay-facing balcony off the main bedroom. It's the perfect quiet spot to enjoy coffee and a book while everyone else is sleeping! The house is well-stocked with all the essentials, and the beds were the most comfortable I have ever encountered in a vacation rental! All the instructions for check in and check out were clear and easy to follow. Marcus was super easy to work with and a very helpful host!

Beach vacation

The welcoming photos of the front porch made us select this house. We loved relaxing on the porch in the morning for breakfast and again when we came home in evening. It’s close to the beach and in a quiet neighborhood. The owner is helpful and responds quickly to any questions.

Perfect weekend getaway

We had such a good time at this property! It was spacious and clean, the most comfortable beds, easy to follow check out instructions, and very close to where we wanted to be. I loved that the owners allowed us to use some of their beach chairs in the garage. We didn’t have any kids with us, but it is an extremely friendly kid house! Marcus was very communicative the entire stay and was excellent. We will be back!

Not clean

Owner was responsive and communicative. However, property wasn’t clean upon our arrival. I washed linens because I wasn’t convinced they were clean; the bathroom towels look like they’ve been used heavily for years (wish I had brought my own). It seemed like the cleaning crew cut a lot of corners. I did my own wipe down with Clorox wipes everywhere. There was old food left from previous renters. We told the owner and they said they’d look into this. The beach is pretty close, but we drove because you’d have to cross a highway on foot to get there. No biggie if you’re ok with driving. The beach itself is clean and quiet. Lots of great beach gear in garage. Lots of outdoor space.
