Over all a great place , just a few minor issues.

4.0 / 10.0
We rented May 16-20. The House location and condition was great. However, We are an older group - the main living area is on the third floor so hauling everything up was not the best.
The owner was responsive when we were not able to watch ESPN and the NBA playoffs - she added it to her streaming pkg that night.
We did enjoy sitting on the 3rd floor balcony with our morning coffee and afternoon glass of wine. You can see and hear the water.
However, the $1500 refundable deposit was only partially refunded due to a fan in the refrigerator not working. I’m not sure what we could have done to cause a refrigerator fan to not work - but it seems that charging us $550 for a repair of a part that does go bad is excessive and unwarranted. I did not see these charges right away since I’ve been on vacation for 2 weeks. I have only today messaged the owner for clarification, receipts etc.

We were in town for a dance competition at the convention center. The location couldn't have been better - everyone could easily walk back and forth as needed, no car required. We had plenty of bathroom/mirror space for several teenage dancers AND their parents to get ready in the morning. The bunk room was perfect for the kids. Walking distance to Kroger and a couple of good restaurants was a bonus. Check in/out was a breeze and the host was immediately responsive to all questions/requests and helped us out in every way she could. If we return next year, we hope the house will be available again!

So close to the beach
10.0 / 10.0
We picked this stay because we had lots of moving parts. The stay was an easy walking distance to the beach, the grocery store, and a bunch of restaurants of all level near by. It really helped keep the group together and moving efficiently so we got to enjoy our time in Galveston. The house itself was well equipped with a full kitchen with spices and dishes and cookware. I would totally stay here again!

We were a group of 10 and the house was perfect for us. It is a short walk to Krogers and the beach. The owner was super nice and was totally responsive to our needs. We had a wonderful stay.

The house is really nice, clean, spacious, great location. The only inconvenience for us was the stairs for my parent who are elders. Also I suggest to upgrade the iron which is too small and broken. Other than that, everything is great.

Perfect for a large group!
Location- Very easy 1.5 block walk to the beach and right by Kroger. Quiet neighbors, quiet street, and backs up to a quiet cemetery.
Layout- bottom floor has 2 bedrooms (each with a queen size bed), a third large bedroom with 4 sets of bunk beds and a day bed (this room sleeps 10), a laundry room, 2 full bathrooms, and a front porch / balcony that runs the width of the house. The top floor has a master bedroom with king size bed and attached full bathroom. The rest of the upstairs is open concept with a well stocked kitchen, dining table, bar stools, large sectional sofa, and pool table. I don’t think the sofa and pool table are shown on the listing so we were happily surprised. There’s also an additional half bath on this floor as well as a second large balcony. Under the house is the paved area with lots of parking, a picnic table, grill, and outside shower. There’s also some grass and pretty landscaping. Everything is fenced and there’s a gate that goes across the driveway.
Ideal guests- this is absolutely perfect for a large group, especially if you want the kids to be all together and the adults to have their own space. We had our 7 girl scouts in the “dorm room” and our 5 moms shared the 3 traditional bedrooms. There was more than enough space with 3.5 bathrooms, so many beds, and ample living space. Sound doesn’t carry. We really couldn’t hear each other when our little groups congregated in different sections of the house. I’ve stayed in other beach houses that felt small and cramped, but this one is spacious and has a smart layout. We could have comfortably fit several more people.
Value- this felt like a lot of money when we booked it, but It was actually a better value and a better experience than staying in multiple hotel rooms to accommodate our large group. This one is a winner!

Quick Trip
It was fine, the house was a decent spot for the purpose of my trip. Initially, when looking for a weekend house, the map showed it behind the San Luis, but it in fact behind a Grocery Strip Center, with a Cemetery directly behind the house, which didn't bother me but could be a deal breaker for others. Overall, I'd book it again.

Perfect for our group
This house was perfect for our group. It had all we needed to cook breakfast & the location was close to everything. The owner was friendly and very helpful. She was easy to contact, and prompt in sending check-in and check-out info. We enjoyed our stay and hope to return next year!

Fun and breezy retreat
This was my first ever vacation rental, and it could not have been a better experience. The property owner was super helpful and responsive. The house looked like the pictures and everything was comfortable. I loved that the property was surrounded by a gate for safety and convenience of the dog.
Had a great time and will be back!

Wonderful time celebrating my 50th in Galveston with family
The house was like the pictures. We were close to the sea wall and trolley. We were centrally located to various locations and it was easy for Uber drivers to locate us. The house was stocked with all of the necessities. Lea was very attentive and responsive to our questions as we became familiar with the house. The only recommendation I would give is to provide a few instructions on the TV, internet, and other minor items either in the house or prior to visiting. Everyone in the house loved it. We had 7 women and everyone was happy with the house...that deserves 5 stars. I would rent this house again and recommend to others.

Great location! Close to Seawall, attractions, and food stores!
An amazing house, had everything we needed! We visited right after Christmas and the house was fully decorated, complete with a Christmas tree! Lea provided great directions and instructions for a very easy check-in, and provided area shopping options. Communications with Lea was as easy as a quick text. We had a great stay! Highly recommended!
