Relaxing Family Beach Trip

We had a great family trip. The house in a perfect location, right on the beach. It had everything we needed— beach chairs, cabana, toys, games, charcoal grill. Rooms and beds were comfortable and clean. Kitchen was nicely stocked we cooked or grilled every meal at the house. The Sea Isle community pool was also fun and easy to access. The host was quick to respond to every message and went above and beyond to make our stay great.

Perfect Location For Galveston

Wonderful location. Perfect beach wth hard, flat sand perfect for strolls, joggs or dog walks. Lounging on the patio can't be beat. Spectacular sunrises/ sunsets. Spent the Christmas week down there. We couldn't ask for a more responsive property manager. He kept us inthe loop 24/7.

Serene Staycation - Sun Rise @ Sea Isle

Truly enjoyed my stay @ your property John and will definitely come back! Property was exactly as described and is situated in the perfect location. This is the ideal spot if you are looking to relax away from the hustle and bustle; situated right on the beach just steps from the water. The home was quaint and inviting. My favorite part of the trip was watching the sunrise against the ocean backdrop; simply breathtaking! John is very attentive and responsive. Beautiful home, breathtaking views, perfect staycation!

Loved our stay. Plenty of room for two families of four. Bunk room is great for kids! Kitchen was well stocked and very user-friendly. Giant porch with a 24/7 view of the beach was the best part! We had a lovely time. Spent hours at the beach and hours on the porch. Made all our meals in the kitchen. Great communication with John. Thank you.

Cute little beach house with easy access to the beach! Gorgeous sunrise views from the porch and a very private beach. We literally had the beach to ourselves due to the time of year.I brought my teens for a couple of nights to just enjoy some down time and this house was a perfect choice. While it is small, the spaces are ample, clean, and it had everything we needed during our stay. We used the kitchen and did not have any issues aside from the keurig not working. They had an actual coffee pot so I just used that. While it is an older property it has been maintained well. Host was responsive and helpful. The only con for me was the bed in my room(queen) was very uncomfortable. The linens were nice and clean but I have back issues and the "sag" made for some rough sleep. If you have a healthy back it might be okay or for kids they probably wouldn't mind. All in all my kids really enjoyed our weekend!
