It was a great location, right by the water! The long, covered porch with lounge chairs was our favorite part of the house. Our host was so responsive and prepared. Our two sons *loved* the bunk bed room with fun beach-themed books and decor. Definitely would stay again!

Perfect spot for a get away to Galveston. Cottage is the cutest Very well stocked with kitchen essentials, lots of board games and puzzles, TV apps to curl up with a movie or keep up with your fav shows and a blu ray player just in caseHosts were very helpful and made sure we had a great stayView is beautiful Lots of out door seating including a picnic table to enjoy the cool evening breeze on the back porch and lounging out front to watch the sunrise/sunset or just enjoy the waves and fresh airClose access to beach makes it so easy and you dont have to lug a bunch of stuff because the walk back is so easy and the outside shower makes washing off sand easyFar enough away from hustle and bustle but close enough to make the drive in to shopping and food easyClose to lots of shopping, restaurants, grocery store, candy stores, ice creamReally the perfect spotOnly downsides we noticed were no lounging chairs to take to the beach but the plastic ones worked fine and mosquitos were no joke like they were even inside our car so invest in some spray which we didnt think about for evenings but just a helpful tip House is so worth it and everything you are looking for for a relaxing beach trip in Galveston

Good location and great beach. Nicely decorated and well stocked kitchen. Washer/dryer were a big plus. Excellent communication. Owners were very gracious after we informed them of a new home being built next door; noise was not an issue for us because we were out n about during their working hours. Our dogs loved the beach/ocean!

Super cute, salty little place right on the beach!! Very clean, comfortable, well appointed. Short drive to restaurants and shopping, but away from the bustle of the East End. Only drawback for us was the construction next door; the neighbors are building a house from the ground up, and beachside properties are often close together. We flew in on a Thursday and out on a Sunday—it’s quiet on weekends and evenings. We would definitely stay here again when that’s all wrapped up.

This home was outstanding!! Have stayed in homes on the beach here many times, but never had so much attention from owners and so many extras such as coffee pods, bathroom extras and so on. My family and I loved this home and plan to return in the future. You can't get any more beachfront than this!! Spectacular!! Thank you Salt Air Cottage
