We had a wonderful stay at Reel Salty. It was perfect setup for a multiple family stay. The house was clean and everything we needed. We were able to enjoy the kayaks and paddle-boards which were a nice bonus. Having a marina close by with restaurant/bar was very convenient. We would definitely book again.

We had an incredible stay at Reel Salty! The house met all of our large group needs. Enjoyed waking up and fishing in the canal off the dock. The kayaks and paddle boards were a great bonus and the quiet beach was an easy walk or short drive. We look forward to staying again.

Beautifully updated canal house

Such a cute, cozy home! Perfect space for our family of 7, with a whole bedroom to spare. We have been to many Galveston rentals, and this was definitely one of the more nicely updated we have stayed at. The owner was super friendly, and offered us an early check-in and a late check-out. The beach was an easy golf cart ride away. Our kids really enjoyed crab hunting in the canal.

2023 Family Vacation

We had our first full family vacation since 2014 and the house was absolutely fantastic!! The house was clean and comfortable. We had everything we needed, fishing right of the dock of the house was a plus, and the beach was not too far. The beach was clean and not as busy as other beaches. We will definitely visit again!!

Great getaway

Place was very clean and looked as described. Great decorations and plenty of indoor and outdoor space. Very close proximity to beach. The bathrooms could use some more ways to hang things such as in the shower or hand towels as currently the only way to hang stuff is on the back of the door. Would definitely rent again if we go to Galveston again.

Nice house and great location

We were intown for a baseball tournament and the location was perfect for us. We arrived the day a tropical storm came thru and the owners were so helpful with what was actually going on in the area and were so quick to communicate with us. Thankfully the area was fine and we enjoyed our stay. The house is so cute and located in a nice neighborhood. Great view of the canal and we enjoyed the outside area looking over the water. It was hot and humid after the storm but overall a great stay.

Family Time

We had such a great time at this home. There were 8 adults and 3 children. The home accommodated all of us comfortably, The kitchen had everything we needed to cook and serve our group. Location is a plus, Sea Isle has a private fishing pier, pool, bait camp, restaurant and bar. The house itself sets on a canal and is very close to the beach and bay. The owners are very responsive and kind! Would definitely recommend.

You'll be Reel Salty... about leaving!

We had an amazing stay at "Reel Salty!" Our short stay turned out to be the perfect father's day/birthday/farewell trip for our daughter who was in town from UNC. The moment we walked in, it smelled fresh and clean—none of that musty bay-house smell (IYKYK.) The place was light, bright, and airy. There was so much space upstairs that we didn’t even use the third bedroom! Our girls loved the bunk room and made themselves right at home. The kitchen was impressively well-stocked, which was a huge plus since we love to cook and rarely eat out. The downstairs space, which looked small and awkward in photos, turned out to be fantastic. The large bulkhead at the end of the canal provided plenty of space for the kids to swim and play. The variety of kayaks and paddleboards were a hit. We loved how close the house was to the beach, which wasn’t overly crowded. The neighborhood was lovely, and having a bait shop and restaurant nearby was incredibly convenient. Pro-tip: Instacart will deliver groceries, but they do add an extra fee for the long trip. My husband was thrilled with the crab trap, fishing light, and fish cleaning station. The outdoor TV was awesome to have and the bar cutout and bay door provided a refreshing breeze. The sitting area with the swing turned out to be a cozy spot, and the large driveway was perfect for setting up a pickleball court. Aj and Jenn, the hosts, were amazing. They were quick to respond, kind, and accommodating. I'm so glad we found this place!

Please contact me at vibez.peace.love@gmail.com for full review with pictures, avoid wasting money.

The owner will be ready for this review as I explained my concerns and did not receive a resolution, so I am sure they are going to place a generic response. Overall, this rental is for someone that is on a budget and would like to experience Galveston for the first time, the price does not reflect this and is overpriced. If this was your only choice I would just stay in a hotel and go to a pier and fish. This property has been renovated with fresh paint on the inside and decorations. But from the pictures provided it does not explain what you are truly staying in. Upstairs is clean but very small, there is a living room and an eating area that leads into 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The 1st bedroom has 4 bunk beds and would be great for those guest with children. Our issue is that the sheets were dirty with stains. I woke up to a bug by my head on the side table and the only light was a lamp but it was broken. 2nd bedroom has a queen size bed but the issue is when your sleeping the bed and tv on the wall shake. This may be because the room is located at the front of the home that is on stilts, and the home is old and renovated. We did not use this room, this is why I slept on a bunk bed, also the door knob was broken and fell on the floor. 3rd bedroom has a king size bed and contains the extra linen. When I went to get some extra towels there was a humongous wolf spider the size of my hand in the closet. There were ants present in the bed and the bed is broken.

Island dream vacation!

This property was fantastic, such a great location and community around it! We were able to fish/crab and swim right of the back deck. Cruised up to the bait shop, bar and grill in our golf cart! Kids enjoy the park also! The house was in great condition with plenty of space! Defiantly going to stay here again.
