Thanksgiving stay

Our family went to the beach for the Thanksgiving holiday. The location was wonderful. Paul is well prepared for guests and communicated with us proactively and was very responsive to questions. The home was very comfortable and clean. The kitchen had almost everything we needed and had nice appliances. The deck overlooking the beach is excellent. We enjoyed our stay very much and hope to come back soon.

It’s a fairly small, but well laid out and well maintained first row house. Porches are great and directly overlook the beach about 25 yards away. Plenty of good deck seating. It’s just a 10 minute walk to Galveston State Park.

Great location, nice house

We had a great stay. The location is amazing, right on the sand. Great deck and nice ground level outdoor area. The kitchen was well stocked and there was plenty of space for our party of 4. Host was very responsive. Our only complaint is that the linens need an upgrade. The sheets and towels have seen better days.

Great Spring Break 2025

The house was very clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed spending time on the deck with great views of the beach and ocean. We walked right out to the beach from the house. Although the instructions said to bring our own shampoo, soap, hand soap, trash bags, toilet paper etc, the house already had all of these items in ample supply. Although the pictures in the listing had furniture that was not current it was not a negative result as the current state was better than the pictures. We would book this place again.

Palm Beach on the Beach

Everything was clean, good pots and pans we cooked allot. We walked, enjoyed the sunset and sunrise walk to beach perfect. The upstairs twin beds were a bit hard to get to - the ceiling is low and people can not be too tall or over weight it is meant for children or adults not over weight or over 5'7''. Good mattresses!

Relaxing & Rejuvenating Seaside Getaway!

We had a fantastic stay at this beachfront home! The breathtaking ocean views, comfortable accommodations, and the soothing sound of waves made it a truly memorable experience. The host was incredibly hospitable, and the property's proximity to the beach made it a perfect retreat. The loft does not have exceptionally tall ceilings, but our teenager did not mind a retreat that was all his own and there were lots of amazing caution signs! The pizza pans and air bake oven capabilities help you make amazing pizza! A plethora of coffee cups and an option for a Keurig, or a brewed coffee pot started our day off right every day! Also I am not sure where the deck furniture came from but the high chairs help you avoid the railing and are exceptionally and surprisingly comfortable… to top it off there are thick cushions for every chair. I highly recommend this home for a relaxing and rejuvenating seaside getaway.

Amazing Views

The views and easy beach access are the best parts of this property. We visited the beach multiple times a day and were able to take breaks during the hottest parts of the day by walking back to the house. Communication with the host was excellent. He was so kind and was available to answer any questions we had and even sent over a maintenance worker to repair a clogged sink during our stay. The accommodations are ok. The house was mostly clean upon our arrival, except for sand on the floors. It's a beach house, so I understand that it's challenging to keep the floors clean. I just didn't enjoy having sand on my feet for our whole stay. The other issue was bugs. Again, I understand that it's a beach house, and it's hard to keep all the insects out, but having ants crawling all over our laundry was kind of gross. We later found ants in our car as we were driving home. I also saw tiny spiders on the kitchen counters while I was cooking, despite trying to keep a tidy kitchen during our stay. Overall, we enjoyed our vacation and stay, but I would probably not stay at this house again.

Loved our stay!

We had a great time visiting Galveston and enjoyed our stay at this property. It is quite literally "on the beach", with a great patio and exceptional view. It's about 15-20 minutes away from the main part of the island, so you are able to get out of the busiest areas and have a more relaxing place to stay with a more private beach to enjoy.
