Property clean and convenient to many places.

The house is very cute and exceptionally clean. Beds were all very comfortable and it was in walking distance to the beach. We stayed during Hurricane Beryl and Bianca was very helpful when we had to adjust plans due to the weather. I would definitely recommend this property. We had 6 people staying and there was plenty of room for everyone. The kitchen and laundry areas were perfect and the bathrooms are very nice.
Thank you!

This was the perfect location for our stay! This was our first experience with a vacation rental, and we may be spoiled! This was a beautiful old home, that was very comfortable, on a quiet street, located very close to the beach! The host’s requests for clean up were very reasonable and simple to complete! We did not get to enjoy the backyard, because it was too hot for us, but it was a perfect space had we wanted to eat outside or play games. The kitchen was well equipped for our cooking needs, and it was so nice to have a laundry room available!

We loved our stay in Brianna’s home. It was clean, quiet, well-stocked, and beautifully decorated. Instructions were clear and the place had everything we needed. Close to the beach, Strand, Post Office galleries, and restaurants. We will definitely stay here again!

Really enjoyed our time at the property. The host was awesome and accommodating. As for Galveston itself, it's very spread out.

Comfortable place to stay. We were there for a tournament . The only negative is the front door was hard to lock, so we would lock it from the inside and go out the back.

After arriving notified host that TV remote needed batteries. They had some delivered

We had a wonderful stay. The AC at night got warm but the ceiling fans made up for it. It’s a great location in town close to restaurants, shopping and Beach. I’ll stay here again in the future.

Great Location
Small, but roomy in a great location. We were provided with all the necessary amenities. Host was easy to communicate with and friendly. Only recommendation would be to bring fans with you during the summertime.

Older home that looks recently renovated. It is located in an older part of Galveston Island. Close enough to the beach to walk if you don't plan to swim or dig in the sand. Bring a wagon or drive to the beach otherwise. You'll have to drive to some of the local eateries and attractions. The details with the amenities really made the place feel like home.

Great for family getaway!
This property was super cute! Decorated nicely and well maintained. It sits next to an abandoned house, so that was a surprise when we pulled up after dark. Also could use new mattress (was pretty hard for our liking) and new couch (was uncomfortable to sit on for a any length of time like watching a movie).

Great 3 day weekend
House was very clean and cozy. Full size kitchen and 2 full baths really came in handy. Will definately book again.
