Great/clean property

My family and I enjoyed our stay at this property. It was very clean. The beds were comfortable. I do wish the other two bedrooms had TVs but not a big deal. The neighborhood was quiet but not far from all the activities. The pool/backyard was enjoyable. Easy check-in and checkout process. Communication with property manager was easy and timely!

Backyard Oasis

We had a great stay and really enjoyed the backyard/pool. My only gripe is the electronic keypad to get in and out. The battery died and we were locked out of the house for an hour waiting on maintenance. Other than that and the grill being out of propane it was a great stay.

Wanted to stay somewhere with a private pool in case my son got tired of the beach. It was definitely more house than we needed, but still great! Prompt response while checking in and finding all the switches, lights, etc. Have already referred the property to family that lives north of Galveston.

Stay Here!

This house was amazing! We had plenty of room, it was very clean and well taken care of, and the pool was a life saver after spending the day out in the heat. The house is in a quiet neighborhood and close to all of the fun on Galveston Island. We had very clear, easy instructions on check-in and check-out and could easily get ahold of the property manager.

Overall a great stay!!

It was a great weekend stay at the house . Very comfortable and clean . The only issue was that the gas grill ran out of propane and didn’t provide back up propane. I went and bought some and left a full tank so that the next renters won’t have the same issue.

2nd stay at this property

This was our 2nd stay at poolside paradise. The home has everything you need… well equipped kitchen, awesome backyard pool, and comfortable beds. It was extremely clean when we arrived. Property owner communication was great and allowed us to check in early and even texted when the house was ready. The cable tv in the media room did not work and there was no propane for grilling, but I am sure these items will be corrected for the next guest. Regarding tv, property manager offered to look into matter while we were there but we were content with in master bedroom. WiFi does not work in master bedroom but hey you have an awesome pool to swim in! We will consider staying here again!

Last minute trip

We booked this property the day before we arrived on a last minute trip. Check in was simple. Property was as depicted in the listing. House is a short drive to the beach. The neighborhood was quiet, no issues. We really enjoyed the pool! The kids liked the media room with the recliners and big TV, they hooked up the xbox at night and had a blast. The beds were super comfortable! We had a small issue with the ceiling fans when we arrived but it was taken care of the next day. The only negatives we had were there was a mouse in the grill outside (we were disappointed because we were looking forward to grilling by the pool but you can't control wildlife) and the blinds in the master bedroom are partially broken/missing. Property manager was notified of both of those issues. Other than that, it was a very nice property and we enjoyed it.

Clean and Fun

This property was wonderful for our family’s week get away! Check in took a little long, as I assume they forgot to send us the check in info. I had to call a couple of times before somebody answered and gave us the code. The pool was a little green upon arriving, but Lynn was very fast to get with the pool service to have it taken care of. The beds are VERY comfortable and the house stays very cool! The only real complaint we had was the water never really got hot. Overall it was a great stay!!
