We had an amazing time and the location was perfect! It was a little warm in the common area/kitchen area and the AC had a hard time cooling this floor. Awesome stay!

Perfect house for all the kids and grandkids. Great kitchen and open living so all could be together. Comfy deck furniture up and down. Easy access to beach. Beautiful clean beach and no car traffic.

When we arrived, the code provided didn't work to open the door, and I had to call and wait on hold to receive a new code. The communication was not great, the only response we ever got to things like broken dryer and water/ice maker was an automated message saying the issue had been forwarded to the appropriate person. * Garage door openers provided but not working. Would have been nice to easily park a car or two under home. * Second floor outside light off balcony hanging by its electric wires * Would be nice to make the TV system in the main room much easier to manage...shouldn't need 4-5 remotes provided. * Provide a product or instructions on getting tar off feet and out of house (we understand tar is not always a problem, but this summer it was REALLY bad) * Countertop icemaker stopped working then started...might provide some instructions * Water on fridge door quit functioning * Dryer not working/drying * A longer walk-over to beach would be very nice, the current walkover only goes halfway, then you have to go over another dune with hot sand...long walk dragging beach stuff All that being said, the house was a good fit for our family and well stocked.

The only door in the house that is easy to open is the front door. The one least used. All sliding doors and the garage doors take major effort to move. Its a short walk to the beach but at the a low spot there are 2 pallets and both are starting to break. I believe there is a septic system problem and the area by the shower smells horrible.

Impeccably furnished and clean property with private access to beach. Was a very relaxing time for our family. Particularly enjoyed the 3 Beach front patios with comfortable outdoor furniture, enclosed shower station and water hose on beach level for rinse off. Owner very responsive and accommodating of any questions we had. Couldn’t get any better than this!

Fun Family Vacation

The property location is excellent. Short walk to the beach. Kitchen adequately equipped. Family room, kitchen, and dining room area are spacious. Bedrooms are good and bathrooms are good. One thing: we left our tents and beach equipment on the beach overnight. Galveston has an ordinance that you cannot leave things on the beach and the city picked up our tents and put them in their dumpster. So, we lost 3 tents and beach equipment and toys. Take you stuff in every night. This is a great place for family fun! Thank you for our memorable stay. We hope to join you again next year!

House has a great layout but the care/maintenance for this house isn't done very good. No hot water, then lukewarm water then no hot water again. Dryer didn't work and hadn't been cleaned out in months(maybe years). Left a very long review on the link that Ryson sent me.
