This house has so much character, was very clean and the kitchen had absolutely everything you would need. We would definitely stay here again! The pool and back deck area was perfect!
10.0 / 10.0
We thought the house and pool were fantastic. Lots of room and privacy for everyone. The property owners thought of everything. The bathrooms were so pretty. Pool noodles were provided. Nice lounge chairs and outdoor eating area with ceiling fans. Of course, it’s August in Texas so pool was warm but that’s to be expected. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely book here again.

Home is well-located and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay. Our party included a one-year-old, and we were counting on the home having a high chair or booster seat since it was listed. It did not. We made due. That is the reason for the 4 stars on the question about the accuracy of the listing.

This house is located close to everything that Galveston has to offer. It's FULLY stocked. You will have all that you need and more! It's conveniently located to many activities and you can even walk to the Seawall.
If we come back, we'd stay again!

We enjoyed the pool and the house is absolutely adorable! Having 3 bathrooms was a big plus with a group of girls! It was located close to everything, just a couple blocks off the sea wall, and close to pleasure pier. Parking is really tight but we played car tetris and made it work!

My husband and I decided that we needed a weekend away and this little house fit the bill perfectly. There was plenty of room for more friends and family, but it was just the two of us. We grilled, floated, beached, walked, napped, and just enjoyed the island. Nice neighborhood. We would stay there again!

We came to visit our son at A&M Galveston for the Family Weekend. This house was perfect for us!! The decor and character of the house was absolutely charming. We loved the spaciousness which allowed all of us to just relax and recharge - which was perfect for our Sea Aggie. The kitchen allowed room for 3 of us to prepare different courses of our meal while the others played games in the living room. Two other family members were in town as well (staying elsewhere) and came over to join us for dinner. All 8 of us sat outside comfortably with the pool in the background. That was an extra touch of calmness to round out our stay. We will definitely recommend this property.

The house is clean and well laid out. The pool is nice and a great way to relax each day. The patio is a great relaxing space.
The neighborhood was quiet and convenient to everything on the island. We would stay here again.

We had a nice stay in Galveston. The house was fine. Only issue was that, due to the recent drought conditions there were some ants in the house. They were promptly addressed after we contacted the manager and weren't an issue after that.
The house is cute and not too far from the beach.
6.0 / 10.0
If you’re looking for a nice pool and a hot shower then this is the place. If you’re looking for a good location this is not it. Terrible neighborhood with barking dogs, grouchy neighbors and just overall sketchy. If you’re looking for a clean home this is not it. Ants everywhere!!! Especially in the kitchen. Couldn’t prepare food without fighting the ants. Also found them in one bed. If you’re looking for a host that cares you’re having a terrible experience this is not it. Besides the ants the house was not clean and smelled musty. We arrived home at midnight only to have the passcode not work. Oh and it’s too hot in Texas to not have an air conditioner that cools effectively. I’ve stayed at many VRBO locations and this is the only one I wouldn’t recommend or reserve again.
10.0 / 10.0
The house is absolutely adorable and well equipped. The pool was very nice and relaxing. The water was (of course) nice and warm (in August). The beach is only a few blocks away and a nice little walk. Even though property manager was out of state, he still responded to my inquiries. I would definitely stay here again!!

This trip was a quick getaway, we usually stay in a beach house on the beach. For a last minute booking, this house was great. The beach was not far, quick ride to the strand and the Seawall. The pool was relaxing and nice! The house was updated, beds were comfortable, and everything we needed was available. The only downside was the very narrow drive way, our big SUV was a tricky spot to park.

Absolutely amazing week!!
We can’t say enough about Debbie and this property. It was everything advertised and more. The evening we got there the AC went out, but Debbie had someone there within hours and it was replaced the next day. My kids enjoyed the pool every day and we had all the amenities we needed. We will definitely be staying again.
