Very comfortable and welcoming

We came to Galveston TX before embarking on our cruise vacation. Our stay at the Sea Breeze Cottage was awesome, very comfortable and welcoming a very nicely decorated Two bedroom house in Galveston. We came to Galveston a couple of days early and used the time to explore the town or should I say the Island . What a wonderful way to start our vacation, Galveston was so easy to get around shop see the beaches and explore the local history, museums, The Moody mansion, and Katie’s Seafood House restaurant. There was also the Mardi Gras celebration happening at the same time. There was so much to do before boarding the Regal Princess and staying at the Seabreeze Cottage was at the root of an awesome vacation for us. Thank you especially to the owner for opening up their awesome home to us. We very much would love to be able to stay again if we can get back down to Galveston again. Sarah thank you and you house keeping and maintenance staff for a wonderful stay.

Wonderful and fun stay!

So stinkin' cute!!! We absolutely LOVED the property and our stay was so nice! Everything was clean and ready to go! It definitely shows that the home is very well taken care of. BEWARE of the hot water in the shower! It is a little tricky and HOLY COW IT IS HOT!!! The beds were super comfortable. I NEED one of those mattresses in my own home! I cannot say enough good things. The location was perfect and quiet, but yet close to everything without being right smack dab in the middle of the craziness. We will highly recommend to others and will definitely be back! Thank you so much!

Put this on your list of places to stay!

We had a great time at this house! We were in town for Mardi Gras, so it was a great location. We were able to uber down to the Strand area easily and even walked back and forth a few times. There was a big parade only a block or two away so we were in a great spot for that as well. The house itself was fantastic! It was very clean and had everything we needed available. They even provided coffee! Really, there is nothing we would've changed about our stay. We'll keep this house on our list of places to stay when we visit Galveston for sure! Thank you!

Winter in Galveston for a month

We loved that the property was close to everything. We walked in the neighborhood & felt completely safe, met some neighbors along the way. We enjoyed all the aspects of Galveston and the cottage was well stocked. We cooked a lot since we were here for a month and had everything we needed. We loved the beds & the couch was very comfortable. We would stay again.

Cottage away from home

Within minutes of our arrival, our oldest was writing her review in the guestbook. This trip was our celebration of her birthday, and she could scarcely have been more delighted with the cottage. The location was great for our purposes. There was a little more traffic than we expected, but then we live in a town of fewer than 1000 so we aren't used to traffic. Some construction was happening next door, but they weren't a bother to us. They had decent work hours and we were out most of the day. 10/10 we would stay again.

Needed Get Away

I was going through some health issues and found out I had a tumor on my brain. Needed to escape for the weekend! My closest friend came into town and we escaped to Seabreeze Cottage for the weekend. It is a cozy, quaint place in a safe, quiet location which I needed for rest. We had to air out the cottage which was fine. It had the basic necessities for a short trip. Close to the Sea Wall and great restaurants like Mario's Italian restaurant. I highly recommend this place for anyone who need to unwind and enjoy a weekend away from the world.
