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!

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!

Miserable

No AC for two days and nights 83 degrees inside. Then we were given another house at 10:00 PM at night and had to move all our things and got moved in and to bed at 11:15 PM. I think we should get a two day refund.

It was great there were just a couple small things that were irritating. The air did not work very well. It was 80 outside and the air could barely keep the house at 72. Otherwise the rooms and the house were very nice and the property managers were nice

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.

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

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.

Home Away From Home

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.

Great locations...close to everything

The location is perfect for a combination beach and strand vacation. Easy walk to the seawall and the strand / historic district equally close. As other have mentioned there is a school right across the street, but it was not too noisy. The main issue was trying to back out of the driveway during pickup times. Property was clean and well stocked. The beds are too firm for us and some furniture needs to be replaced. Nice backyard space, but there is an empty house next door that is in need of repair. Layout is great for a couple or family.

In the middle of everything

A great property, that is an easy walk to the strand and the beach. Property is clean and has everything you need. Nice backyard for our dog as well. We never thought of staying in town, but when nothing on the beach was available we selected this property. Far exceeded expectations. A great location. We never had to drive. We walked everywhere. Definitely will stay there again, next time we are in Galveston.

The place was absolutely fabulous. We all enjoyed our little getaway while we were literally getting away from Hurricane Ida. Our dog got lost during our stay and Winter didn’t hesitate to do what she could to help find her. We’ll definitely be booking this place for our next REAL vacation to Galveston.
