It was Perfect!

As a Board, we meet once in-person annually. We are a group of 7 and this rental was perfect. Every member had the privacy they deserved. The views of the ocean were beautiful. We also had the luxury of meeting indoors and outdoors. The beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen had EVERYTHING we needed. It was a wonderful weekend. The location was perfect!

Paradise on the beach!

This was a fantastic place to stay for myself and 2 other families. Plenty of space. Location was amazing...close to grocery stores and restaurants, and being steps from the ocean was great. A few things in the kitchen need updating. The dishwasher was broken: the shelves barely held dishes and the top sprayer was broken off and laying on the floor. The small oven and griddle don't light. A few fun board games and puzzles, but no beach toys...make sure to bring your own buckets and shovels! Overall was a great, relaxing, and fun vacation on the beach.

Spacious home, gorgeous beach location

The house was perfect for our extended family of 10. 6 adults and 4 cousins age 6-10. Each individual family had plenty of private space and there were 2 separate inside gathering areas to keep everyone comfortable and happy. The beach was an absolute highlight. The outdoor deck and patio areas were perfect. We purchased and/or brought our own beach toys, towels, and beach tent. Some of the furnishings getting a bit worn and though the oven was large, the main oven door didn’t close completely affecting cooking times//temps. Overall, the house and all its amenities met our needs well, helping us create a wonderful family memory of Galveston.

Our Family Vacation

The location was beautiful. Perfect area, little street noise, quiet, private beach, and amazing view. A few things about the house itself. None of the bathrooms are handicapped compliant. A wheelchair does not fit through the door, and does not fit into the separate toilet area. The listing says that there are minimal kitchen supplies, but there are plenty of large pots and pans,utensils, plates, and a Keurig. We brought our own not knowing these things were already there. Also, there are plenty of chairs on the decks. We brought several fold-up chairs also not knowing there were already several chairs available. We had several things either broken or not working at all.Both of the master suites on the lower level have lights above the bed that are not working at all. They both have jetted tubs. One of the jetted tubs does not plug up, so you can't fill it with water, and the jets themselves do not work. The other jetted tub does work, but we had to use a flat-head screwdriver to lift back up the plug to drain the tub. Several of the blinds either did not properly go up and down, and some were falling off of the top of the window pane. One of the bedrooms upstairs with one queen bed does not have a closet, and has a minimal dresser. We will definitely stay there again, these things were not deal breakers. But it would be helpful to update your listing to include these things mentioned so people can plan accordingly.

Perfect Get Away

Great location, it is 1 hour from downtown Houston! It is on one of the best beaches we have been to in Galveston. The house is right on the beach and deck is perfect for hanging out after the long day at the beach. We had 5 couples and we had plenty of space to cook each night and then enjoy the sunsets! The only thing we had a complaint about was that as mentioned in the other reviews they need to replace some light bulbs, but other than that we loved the house and we will be going back for sure.

Feel Secluded But Near EVERYTHING! BEAUTIFUL Home!

Great getaway for myself, Daughter and her friends who will be her Bridesmaids in 12/19...the beach felt secluded and was definitely not crowded at any point during the weekend...and we were only 10-15 minutes from The Strand, great restaurants and attractions. The home is immaculate and the bedrooms are perfectly positioned to give everyone maximum privacy. Amazing kitchen and gathering areas, triple decks with great views! We will definitely return to this property...already tried to secure Thanskgiving week but it's already booked! :(

Great Location!

Great location and the house was very clean. However the house needs to be updated as we had several issues from door handles falling off, satellite not working, clogged sink, broken dishwasher and ice maker, etc. Nothing too bad, but items that should have been handled prior to renting out. I would also strongly recommend a different management company. The lack of urgency from phone calls and the unprofessional behavior of Taylor left a terrible taste in our mouth.
