We [mom, dad, several children] recommend this home, period. Pricing is exorbitant, though probably comparable to the market: it is after all ON the beach & during peak season. Some note lack of updates: we have no problem with it being basically an early ‘70s museum; kind of interesting being so different from our own home. Could there be things to improve? Yes. Mgmt should address the following, but if they don’t, then…KITCHEN: bring your own cutting boards & knives; bring your own can opener [both the electric &manual ones were already broken]; bring dishwasher detergent [There was a “starter kit” for the dishwasher, but for only one use]. LAUNDRY: bring your own clothes washer detergent. Other similar rentals we have experienced in the past provided these, so this was a bit of an inconvenience to us. Again, previous places provided ample. BATHROOMS: could have used a bit more towel supply; toilet paper was ample but horribly cheap, especially in light of the rental price.AC: very cold, definitely appreciated; Kitchen has a very large counter, great for family, big groups. Lots of beds.WIFI: strong signal.Location is superb: only 10-15 minute drive to the main island action, but far away enough to have lots of privacy time and space on the beach; Ideal and far more “family-friendly location. We definitely recommend this place, would stay here again. It’s expensive & could use more supplies especially in context of the high price, but we give it thumbs-up

Great views...Ok home

This home has great beach access and view, which is pretty important in a beach vacation. The home itself was fine. May be better for a couple and children. Not enough toilet paper, lol. The biggest issue was when the AC went out was 87 degrees inside and maintenance was not able to fix it. Had to sleep in a hot and humid home and could not open windows due to no screens. When they could not fix it they recommended for US to go buy a portable AC. This ruined our last evening and final breakfast in the home. Just a bad ending to the vacation. We know things happen, but when maintenance showed us the AC filter i can honestly say it may never have been changed. This makes us believe that the ac issue could have been avoided and the owner wasnt taking care of the property which also made me question the cleanliness of the home. May have appeared ok but really wasnt. Just gross! They did offer a small redund, but definitely not we thought was fair. They offered less then half a day. We thought one day was fair. We had to spend time to wait for maintenance and sleep in ahot humid house. We did not make our dinner that was planned and had to spend more to go out and throw out the food that was bought. Overall we had a good time. Just all that left a bad feeling and definetly wouldnt stay in this home again. Almost forgot. If you do choose to stay in the house, watch the stairs to the loft. They are alick. My husband slipped and feel down the stairs.

Spring break get away

The house is not terrible but certainly needs some love and attention. We could very much tell we were another number for a property management firm. There was no priority. We had to call for how to access the beach equipment. I also had to call for beach towels and waited 2 days for them. There was a number of cockroach visitors that we had to watch for which was very unsettling.

Quiet Getaway - Great Short Vacation

Was pleasantly surprised that the property listing and actual property were of the same quality. We stayed there for a couple of days at the end of December and it proved to be a great getaway for us. Clean property with minimal issues during stay. Would definitely look at coming back here again if they were pet friendly.

Great view, a few maintenance issues

The view was exactly as pictured, beautiful. The area was quiet and clean. The house had a few maintenance issues, some ants and roaches, and we didn't get the code to the laundry room/grill until it was too late to use it. Overall we enjoyed our stay and appreciated the outdoor seating.

Great Beach Front Property

The location was unbeatable, just steps away from the beautiful sandy beach. The views from the deck were breathtaking, especially during sunrise and sunset. The property itself was spacious, clean, and well-appointed with all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The living area was cozy, perfect for relaxing after a day in the sun. We loved having access to nearby attractions, yet the property felt like a private oasis. Overall, this VRBO was the perfect getaway for a beach vacation. I can't wait to return!

Excellent location!

Thank you for having us at your property! We were four adult women who took a girls trip and had a fantastic time. The location was amazing, we loved our morning walks and watching the sunset at night with our glass of wine. We felt like it was a good value for what we got, though the property does need a little bit of updating. We had plenty of fresh linens, but the mattresses left some to be desired. They seem to be old and flimsy unfortunately. We did have a problem with ants but we appreciated the raid that was left under the kitchen sink. The lock was a little wonky trying to get in. The plastic chairs on the patio need to be replaced soon a couple of them were cracked But we did appreciate the cooler to bring down to the beach. Overall, an excellent stay, The property had everything that we needed and once again the location. We loved Galveston Beach.!

The oven was broken, we could not make cookies, bisquits, casserole; or a birthday cake. TVs did not work for half of our booking. The exhast fan over the stove did not work.

Great Location - but needs a few repairs

Great location - but the code and door lock does not work. Had to use the lock box key after we finally got the code to get in. Front door door knob broken and had not been fixed. I noticed it other reviews. Comes off every time you try and go out. Oven broken, only top heating element works so you can't bake anything. Upstairs area very hot can not sleep up there. Bathroom shower very small and hard for adults to use in the hallway bathroom. Great location justs needs some things fixed. Grill is nasty dirty and did not work.
