Overall was a good stay!! The only downside was the mosquitoes were terrible, couldn’t walk out of the house without being swarmed by them.

We survived hurricanes Beryl!! Great home, so we decided to weather the storm. According to the locals the East side is less likely to flood and they were correct. Open concept main floor made for great family time. Large decks and patios. Big tv and plenty of seating area to gather. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook in. The bunk room downstairs was perfect for the kids. It has its own bathroom. The main floor also has a 1/2 bath for guests or for those who didn’t want to go upstairs. The three bedrooms upstairs were comfortable. The master suite has a great bathroom and deck. All rooms had great closets. Hardwoods throughout the house. Cold air conditioning! Just clean and welcoming. Close enough to get to everything and just far enough to escape traffic and crowds. The gated community limited access and thus, the neighborhood was peaceful and quiet. We lost power due to the storm and had to cut of trip short, but will definitely comeback should our travels take us to Galveston again.

This was our second stay at the property and we loved it as much as the first. Location, access to the beach, and the wonderful house itself make this an ideal Galveston rental!

Only one change/recommendation from the group and that would be to add an access from the property directly to the beach. Our group was 50-80 yo so we drove to the beach

Beautiful house and location…annoying ants and mosquitos!
Beautiful house and location…annoying ants and mosquitos!
Beautiful home inside and out and amazing location! Lots of room, perfect fit for our family! Would have enjoyed our stay a lot more without the ants inside the house the entire stay. We called the rental company and they delivered a big bottle of ant spray with no sprayer. I called again and the next day they delivered a can of raid and some bait that takes 48 hrs to 2 weeks to work per google. Everything was left outside the door. The ants started in living room the first night so we couldn’t even enjoy the furniture. They were on the couch. They then made their way to kitchen counters and downstairs bedroom. I feel like you should have come inside to get rid of them. Outside the mosquitos were HORRIBLE. Take tons of off. they are huge. I would recommend something is sprayed or some type of mosquito bait is placed outside by rental company! I would definitely stay here again if they got the ants and mosquitos under control but until then would prob find another home in same area.

The house was beautiful, nice, clean, provided enough amenities for our little family. We mainly ordered food and brought snack for our kids. The proximity to the beach was great! There was a bug problem. Inside under the living room rug there were a lot of ants and one bit one of my kids on the toe. Outside was mosquito land! We live in Texas and are familiar with mosquitoes but these were massive and there were tons of them. You could hardly get outside to spray bug spray and our Off that we brought didn’t do enough. Other houses in the neighborhood didn’t seem to have the issue as bad so I’m guessing they get treatment for them, but trying to keep our kids from being mosquito food was hard! That being said we would come back we would just be better prepared for the bugs!
