Wonderful Stay
The house and location were just perfect! A nice quiet neighborhood with easy access to the beach. It was close enough to Galveston to do everything we wanted and yet nice and quiet to return to at the end of a busy day. We definitely recommend!

Galveston relaxation Aug 2024
Enjoyed my stay to relax and recharge. Plenty of choices to pick from downtown Galveston to the west end. I stayed at the West End, which is a lot more quieter end of the island.

Great Place
We loved staying here. The house had everything we needed and it was very comfortable. Communication with Yolanda was very good and she was quick to respond. She had a beach wagon which was great to use to haul things with us to the beach. She also had 2 beach chairs, beach toys and other things for the kids to use. We definitely recommend staying here.

Everything was great. Loved the layout. The only 4star I have was because I thought it was a beach house and not a townhome beach house.

Doc's Delight!
This is my second time to stay at Doc's Cabin. The location is perfect, within sight of the Gulf, and easy access to the very peaceful stretch of Jamaica Beach where cars are not allowed. The condo is perfect with two bedrooms and three full baths. I love that there are two porches with views of the Gulf. Additionally the outdoor shower ensures you can rinse the sand off before going inside. Yolanda is a very thorough, responsive, and considerate communicator. Her emails give you everything you need to know to ensure your visit is enjoyable. The home is clean and well kept. We love having our annual friend reunion at Doc's Cabin, and hope to be back!

Wonderful experience
We enjoyed our stay. The condo is nice, clean, and in a well appointed area. 3 bathrooms made getting ready so much easier. The balcony view from both upstairs and downstairs is the highlight for me. I loved relaxing outside watching the birds and ocean. Definitely worth renting if you’re in the area. FYI: about 25 minutes for Galveston and main activities.

Great location
A cozy, “vertical” in its design (3 stories tall) townhouse in a quiet complex. It TRULY stands a walking distance from the beach (3-5min?). Two balconies catch the ocean breeze and are a nice addition to the living space, especially when the weather cools off. Lower balcony is fully shaded in the afternoon.

Galveston condo review
Overall a very comfortable property. Completely equipped kitchen with good new appliances. If you like to cook, you will be pleased with this kitchen. Nice partial beach view and easy access. Owner very accessible and helpful. Only a couple of concerns. Technology hard to use. (Each TV had 3 remotes and confusing directions all referred to the "Comcast remote". None of the remotes labeled "Comcast." No Fox sports so no Astros-Rangers playoff games. Never really got the tech figured out (And I am tech experienced) but you don't come to the beach to watch TV that much. For older guests, be aware no handholds in showers and high floor strips in doorways can be tripping issue. Also if stairs are a problem, this is not the spot for you. (3 floors of stair access) Apart from these issues, we had a nice stay and a comfortable place.

Relaxing Getaway
We had a perfectly relaxing beach getaway at this property! Great location! Beach is perfect for what we were looking for. Our 2 year old had a blast and my husband enjoyed fishing while I relaxed on the patios. House is kept clean and stocked with everything you need except the groceries! We loved how close the Seven Seas grocery store was when we needed just a few things at the end of our stay. It is a lot of stairs which I prepared myself for since I’m 8 months pregnant, so keep that in mind if you have mobility issues. Thanks for housing us for a memorable family trip before we become a family of 4!

About the host

Hosted by Yolanda

Host profile image
My husband and me enjoy sharing our 3-bedroom, 3 full bathroom beach home next door and when this beach home came up for sale, we decided to purchase the beach home.
We found many families with a desire to stay close to the beach and enjoy the relaxation that only a beach can offer! We also wanted to provide vacationers, with multiple family members, the option of sharing the same beach area but still having the privacy of being in separate quarters.

Why they chose this property

Our beach is close to Jamaica beach ( Karankawa Beach) not crowded and is a location well known by frequent island guest renters. We also enjoy this location, it is secluded but close enough (10 miles to the seawall) to all of the island happenings!

What makes this property unique

A unique benefit of renting our townhome is its phenomenal location. It is far enough from town to have the small town feeling but close enough to enjoy Galveston and all its attractions. Our guests LOVE the proximity to the beach as well as the proximity to a well stocked grocery store and Nates Restaurant. We are only 10 miles from the Seawall, which is also a big PLUS!
