Beach Serene

Our rental was clean, well stocked, in a great location, and we enjoyed having access to a garage to park our car in. Elizabeth, is a great hostess who checked in frequently to ensure things were ok! She sent detailed information for instructions and left recommendations for places to visit/eat. We will definitely recommend to our friends and family!

Great location!

Enjoyed many things about the property… short Uber ride to everywhere we wanted to go, having a garage and the privacy. Not too clean ( long black hair in bed sheets and clumps of short black hairs in the folds of the shower curtain liner). Bed would benefit from a mattress pad or something on top of plastic mattress cover for a more comfortable sleeping arrangement. Overall, we are a house divided on whether we would book again lol Wasn’t anything we couldn’t work around, I guess.

Perfect little place

It was a sweet bungalow type place in garage apartment form. Was a great location for all we had to do. Comfortable, well appointed, had everything we needed. We laughed about the garage because the narrow alley made it a bit challenging, but we figured it out and it worked well. Would stay there again.

Great location to everything

Everything was very easily accessible for our stay. It was nice to see a book on the table for places to eat, enjoy the area, and detailed instructions. It was a very quiet neighborhood so sleeping was easy without the night life keeping us awake. Would definitely recommend staying here if in the area.

Cute and nice

We enjoyed the location. Not super close to the beach, but not far away. Fairly easy access to everything on the east side of galveston. We had a great time. Has windows units for A/C, but cooled off fairly quick. If it's over 98 degrees outside may take a little longer to cool, but we were comfortable. Had plenty of cooking appliances for us, but we didn't need much. Overall, we were very happy with our stay. Thank you to our host for having a welcome book with plenty of info for the area and our stay.

Wonderful property

My family stayed here recently (2 adults + 1 toddler). The property was clean and had everything we needed. It was a great location to the places we went (beach, Moody Gardens, grocery stores, etc.) and we had a great time. Bonus for families traveling with toddlers, it was very easy to "toddler-proof" compared to many other properties we looked at. We would love to stay again in the future!

Good stay if you don’t plan on staying in the house long.

House had mosquitos in it and there were ants in the bed. The garage where you can park is low rising so we had to park in the front of another house. The spot is connected to another Unit so if you unlock it, you can have another person enter where you are staying or can enter in on them. This gave me an uneasy feeling. There isn’t centralized air, only 2 window units so it does get extremely hot in there and takes a while to cool down.

Cozy Rental

Rental was exactly as described. A little hard to find since we arrived after dark, but we figured it out! Property manager was great and even accepted a call after 11pm when we couldn’t get the door lock to work. Clean, cozy and perfect for a nice getaway to Galveston. It was close to the sea wall, but far enough it was nice and quiet outside, while also only being 5-8 minutes from things like Murdochs and The Strand. Will definitely be renting again if available for our next trips!
