Nice place

Nice place in the middle of a neighborhood in Galveston. Close access to Pleasure Pier and several of the restaurants on Seawall Blvd. Surprising amount of space upstairs and downstairs, with a number of hide-a-beds throughout. We also liked the fenced-in yard and gate access to the entry stairs.

Galveston stay

House was very clean, and comfortable. It is centrally located and close to everything. We had an issue with the door lock but once I called management someone was there to fix it right away.

Great family place

This house is adorable! All the little details are super cute. Its a great space for families. They even had board games and puzzles. Plenty of space for everyone. 2 living areas! Amazing walk in shower! Convenient charging station for all the devices. Plenty of towels and bed linens. Extra blankets. It is located on a very busy road so the traffic noise was a bit loud at times. Walking distance to Pleasure Pier. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful vacation home.

A beautiful vacation home. Walking distance to the beach and Pier Carnival as well as shops and restaurants. Lots of things to do on the beach. Beach was not crowded at all. We will definitely stay again.

Galveston stay

The house was clean, comfortable, and close to walking distance of the beach. We greatly enjoyed our stay. When we found the dryer not working, it was very easy to contact the property manager and let them know.

Quick beach trip

We had a great time in Galveston. The house had a fun layout, and we were all comfortable. It was close to the sea wall so took no time getting there.
