House was very clean. Only issue was that the the 2 levels are not connected inside - they are essentially separate units and the access is only by going outside which was a bit cumbersome

The check-in was great, no problems. Kitchen was well equipped for cooking, but was missing a few important (in my opinion) items: like coffee cups, wine glasses. I think some plastic plates and cups would be great. We had four kids 8 and younger and they really liked to eat on the porch. Every time they went there, I was worried they were going to break something

Home away from Home - But beachier

This property has everything you need from towels to paper towels.You can’t be bored here and at tbe same time you can relax all you need. The house decor makes for a super fun game of “I spy”! Art work covers the inside walls with some classic musical anrtist and a TV in EVERY ROOM. Cleanliness gets 10 plus stars! Spacious yard and plenty of sun bathing spots or shade if you prefer. The kitchen is a chefs delight. Grocery stores close by and plenty of room in the fridge and freezer. The beach is a little walk or short drive away. The marina is .2 miles away, we walked and met the friendliest people alone the way. The entire community is welcoming and cheery. Check in and check out goes smooth because of the detailed information and instructions. House has terrific AC on top and bottom floors. And if you’re a workout / running junkie there is workout equipment and SO MANY running spaces! The host is super communicative. We will be back and hope to be able to book this place again. We loved the location, the beach house, and the community. My mom, son, and I had the best time and the most comfortable place to make memories!

Comfortable, cozy home!

Two moms and three 11 year old girls, plus one very happy dog stayed 4 nights here and had a great time. Beach was an easy 5 to 6 block walk away. Neighbor was friendly. Home is nicely decorated and supplied well. Beds were comfortable. The place was clean. I would go back.

Perfect Galveston Get Away

We had a great stay! We much prefer the quiet, laid back atmosphere of the west side of the island. The neighborhood is located in the perfect spot to enjoy the gulf and bay side. However, it's close enough to visit The Strand or Pier during the day. Lots of board games available in the house, which was great in the evening.The house had plenty of space and we loved having two levels. There was more than plenty of bed space for seven of us (and we had four basketball players with us.) Beds were comfortable. Everyone slept well. Kitchen included everything needed to cook if you want to stay in. There are also plenty of restaurants if you don't. Deck is great for enjoying the sunrise and sunset.It's not beach front, but access is easy by car or golf cart with free parking. Plenty of room to stretch out on the beach as well. We would definitely stay here again!
