Love this cute historic house. It has everything to make your stay comfortable. Loved the fenced in back yard and the front porch too! Short walk to the beach and many fabulous bars and restaurants. Hopefully will be back next year!

This was our 2nd time to stay here and I’m sure we will be back. Such a perfect place to stay for our family of 3. House was very clean, well maintained and stocked with a lot of “extras”. Appreciate the kind and quick responses from the host. No issues at all! If you’re thinking about booking, do it!

Nice house, good location

Very clean, historic house a short walk from the beach in a quiet neighborhood. Well-kept and secure backyard and deck for a dog. There’s a grill but we didn’t use it given all the great restaurants and patios in Galveston.

Quiet street

Seaside Delight is a wonderful home on an unusually quiet street. Home is well equipped and spacious. The extra half bath is a great addition. Beautiful historic details in the home. Host Kathy was in touch easily but honestly we didn’t anything. Easy access to the beach and restaurants. One of the best rentals I’ve ever experienced

Cute house on quiet street

Family of 4 adults, 1 child and a dog enjoyed a very comfortable stay. Everything was clean, and brightly painted. The beach and great restaurants are in walking distance, but the kitchen was also well equipped with everything we needed to enjoy some home cooked meals too.

Lovely home!

Such a cute and comfy place to stay! Loved all the “extras” in the kitchen and bathroom. Love the location and cleanliness. Host was so very nice. The only thing I would change is a way to darken the front bedroom. Love the lead glass window but hard to sleep in when the sun comes up. Would definitely stay here again!

Worth six points!

I gave the best ratings for all the above features, but Kathy went above and beyond in so many ways. Two different kinds of coffee makers - wow! Everything in the kitchen we could hope for! Very communicative and accommodating! Furnished with the comfort of guests in mind.

Galveston 24

Am a fan of historic architecture and this was the first time I got to live in a historically significant home in an historic neighborhood. The icing was that this was in Galveston. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything needed for cooking during a month long stay. Kathy is an attentive landlord available to answer all questions. Will be recommending to family and friends.
