Perfect Location!

We had our entire family of 10 here and this place was so nice. We were literally steps away from the beach. So many windows to enjoy the ocean out of and the balconies with all the chairs was such a great bonus! Can’t wait to book again ♥️

Paradise Found

The patio view to the ocean melts the day away. There’s plenty of space for the two-legged and four-legged animals. A well stocked local market nearby makes this a home away from home.

Fantastic Location

We were able to check in an hour early. The house was clean and everything in working order. We were able to walk to the beach in two minutes, not having to cross any roads, because the access footbridge was about 15 yards away. West end is quieter than in Galveston proper. There's a great little grocery store less than 2 miles away.

Cleaning crewing needed to be called right away because there were a lot of dead love bugs all along the windows seals upstairs and downstairs. The AC did not get cold downstairs so they directed us to use standing fans they had there for better air circulation. The living room tv didn’t work properly and couldn’t get an Apps working to watch Netflix, prime, YouTube, Etc. The location of the beach house was nice, and being so close to the beach was a plus. Plenty of space for our family to stay comfortably.

This house was a huge disappointment. The only good thing about the trip was the location. Carpet in bedrooms are badly stained. Jacuzzi did not work. AC would not cool and when cold front came in, the heat would not come on. Had fireplace but no key to gas. Walls are in need of repair and paint. Kitchen sink faucet had to be in specific spot so would not leak. Freezer would not seal properly. I can go on and on but to cut it short, it is definately not worth the money they are charging. Pictures are misleading on condition of house.

Memorial Weekend Stay

The beach house had a great, open layout in a good location within a quiet, well-kept neighborhood. We loved the furnished balconies and hose access next to the driveway for easier cleanup after heading back in from the nearly private beach, even during the holiday weekend! Upon arrival, we had to go out to get some extra coffee mugs and chairs to take out to the beach, and wine glasses weren’t stocked. If the third room behind the kitchen could have a better cooling solution, that would have really helped our group. We visited during thunderstorms, and the dining room window leaked. Also, we lost water for a few hours, but the rental agency helped after we called.

The property had some major issues. The price should have been lower. The room with restroom with shower and bunk beds needs makeover in restroom. Everything outdated, shower door broken and lighting not working properly. The living room couch bed didn’t work. The fridge drawers were broken and fridge rusted. The dining tables chairs were dirty and filthy. The jacuzzi were broken, didn’t use, outdated! The views were beautiful. The carpet in main bedroom dirty ! That’s why I booked was the location. The property did have a lot of updates. But, It was a bunch of small fixes that needed to happen. The corner tops were dusty and soap were only in main restroom only. So, the kids loved it, and it was ok! Just wanted to be able to relax, was worried with all the discrepancies!
