Off the living area, you'll find a bedroom with a plush king-sized bed, perfect for parents seeking a quiet retreat. Two additional bedrooms complete this level, one with two queen beds and another with two twin-over-full bunk beds.

Step outside onto the expansive front porch, where you can enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning sea breeze or gather for an evening social under the fairy lights. The large backyard offers even more space for fun in the sun.

Very cute house with a great location
This house was perfect for our group. It had plenty of sleeping space and it seemed very cute. There were plenty of bath towels left for us. The location was perfect, as we have other friends in Sea Isle. Would rent this property again.

Lone star weekend
Overall pleased with the rental! Adequate space and parking for my family. Far enough from the seawall for peace and quiet, close enough to enjoy all the attractions of Galveston. Owner of property was great with communication and very friendly. My ONLY suggestion is to have a covering for the patio! Other than that, great rental, would stay again and recommend to family/friends.

The house was very nice. The only complaint we had was the sun in the living room. We felt it needed curtains or blinds to block the afternoon sun. We couldn’t sit on the couches for most of the day because the sun coming down on them was too hot.

Broken toilets, dirty and unsafe house.
I understand the lack of power due to the hurricane was out of your control. However, the state and condition of the vacation home is totally in your control and was absolutely unacceptable, unsanitary and unsafe. In addition you false advertised what I was getting. When we first arrived the entirety of the downstairs are was trashed. The previous occupants had a party and your cleaning crew failed to clean it up. There were beer cans, box's, bottles and various trash all over. I called and wrote your mgt company and they said that they would send out the cleaning crew to attend to it. The cleaning crew did not arrive until the next day. And they DID NOT clean it up, all they did was ask us if we were checking out and when we said not at that moment they left without addressing the issue. We had to clean it ourselves. Also when we first arrived we could barely open the door to get in. There was a pile of window shingles blocking the door on the inside. There was literally a pile of about 60 of them in the middle of the floor inside the home. Next we had no working toilets. One bathroom had a toilet that had a broken tank, a hole at the bottom of it. Your company was aware that it was broken because you had turned the water off to the toilet so it would not flood the home. In addition your cleaning company did not clean it. In addition in t

Upon arrival, the house smelt clean!! That made me happy from the start. Everything was great! I do suggest new mattresses as you could feel the springs through them. Also, mosquitos are horrible! Bring spray! We rented a golf cart and explored the area! Really fun! Great place!

Nice property
This is a nice house. It is further out than I thought. It is about 20 minutes from the businesses in Galveston proper. That’s not necessarily bad, just a little unexpected. Easy access to public beach.

Spring break
The house is in a very nice neighborhood, quiet and peaceful with the beach right across the highway. A short 2 min drive. Plenty of beds for everyone and the two video games in the loft were a fun addition to entertain kids. The things that could be improved: all the windows in the living room need blinds because when the sun is setting it directly hits your eyes when you are watching tv or as you sit and chat with family on the sofa, there is no way around it because that is the only seating area. Comfortable bar stools because this is the only seating to eat in the kitchen, the current bar stools are hard metal, not easy to sit on. Additional TVs should be added in the rooms so guests can watch what they feel like watching, not just have one TV. There is an umbrella shown in the pictures that is provided for the deck, there was no umbrella available to provide any shade when sitting/eating outside. If these things could be improved it would greatly improve the experience.

This made a perfect family retreat. It was about a 5-6 minute walk to the beach. The AC was cool. The TV was big and had access to all the TV viewing we could handle. Everyone bedded down comfortably. It is out of the frenzy of the Pleasure Pier area but close enough for us to get there if we wanted. Perfect family Vacay!

Not worth it
First of all we didn’t even get to stay at the property we were so looking forward to stay in. We ended up in a different much smaller house and the owner did not give us the price difference. Our experience was disappointing and not worth the price.

Nice House
A nice property. All had a very good time. Would've liked to see some extra blankets. Kitchen was stocked with plenty of silverware and some pots but no frying pan. There were enough bath towels but a beach house with no beach towels or chairs to bring to the beach makes no sense. We flew so obviously can't bring that stuff with us. Most rentals have board games; this house was a little chintzy on amenities. Otherwise, was good.
