Everything was excellent! The location was fantastic (could easily market it as "just minute from the beach" because it's really that close) and the amenities were great. We had absolutely no complaints. Any questions or issues were handled quickly and the host was definitely responsive to questions. We will stay here again.

Perfect property very close to the beach. Clean house, well furnished with everthing you need. They even had two different styles of sunshades for the beach and plenty of beach chairs and a wagon to pull it all to the beach!

For value we give Beach Hut AAA+. A clean, well stocked, vacation rental. We are a multiple generation group who have stayed in numerous beach rentals, everything we needed was there, access to a lovely beach area was an easy walk. Our only problem was we ran out of time . We hope we can return soon and stay in Beach Hut again.

In 15 years of renting beach houses and condos, I'd have to say this is the best! Definitely the best stocked of any house I've seen. I'm so used to bringing tp, paper towels, bags, baggies, saran wrap, etc. This had everything and more - toys, puzzles, games, books, beach chairs, umbrellas, beach wagon, plenty of bath/kitchen supplies. I could have left of my packing at home. Will definitely want to stay again. And a quick minute to the beach!

Great property, location to the beach was ideal for our family! Property was just as described. The stocked items available for use were great as we forgot coffee on our way to the property. Lovely home with everything you would need for a great day at the beach.

I live in the neighborhood, and I rented the house for my friends and their family since the father is allergic to our cat. My friends said: "House was clean and cozy and stocked with everything you'd need for a beach vacation." We hung out with them there, and I agree. The only opportunity for improvement that I saw would be something to play music on. The TV speakers were only adequate. I would still feel fortunate to rent it again when my friends come back.

The house was beautifully located in a quiet neighborhood with very friendly neighbors! It had everything you could think of that you would need and more! Talk about stocked! If you are looking for a brand new house this is not the house for you. Everything was a nice shape and had a lot of character! The view was lovely and a very short walk to the beach that you can see from both the deck and bedroom number two! We would definitely return!

Love the location of the house to the beach. Quiet neighborhood. Stairs are an issue for elderly/handicapped. And, twin mattresses in bedroom were hard. Would have loved a table out on the patio to enjoy the sea breezes. Rich and Betty are great hosts and responded quickly to questions. They have good suggestions for shopping and restaurants .

You can not beat this location for the price. It was 4 driveways from the beach! The air conditioning unit was awesome, kept it very cool in this hot Texas week. Washer/dryer downstairs , beach chairs, toys, umbrella, and plenty of seating on the deck. Host was receptive to any questions. Local restaurants, Waterman’s was good and had relaxing views of the bay and only maybe a mile away. Pirates Beach is a quiet neighborhood . I won’t think twice about coming back.

My family stayed at the beach house for seven nights in July. While the weather was hot outside, the air conditioning inside kept us nice and cool. There was plenty of room for four adults and two teenagers. What I particularly liked: Loved the wrap around porch. There were plenty of channels on the television. The house was really clean. Nice washer and dryer. There was a touchpad lock on the front door so we didn’t have to worry about losing a key at the beach. There were pots and pans for cooking. There were basic amenities such as ziplock bags and aluminum foil in the kitchen. There were plenty of towels for the beach and for showers. We would stay there again.

Second summer to spend a week at this clean and well stocked beach house just a few steps to the beach. Family enjoyed playing in the surf, shell collecting, building sand castles, beach walking, kite flying, puzzles, games and an afternoon at Moody Gardens and at the Strand. This house is in a quiet secure and well maintained community and convenient to all Galveston attractions. Great hosts and already booked a week for summer 2024!

Perfect beach house for a family getaway. Comfortably sleeps 6. Lots of the amenities and little things that seem to be missing from vacation rentals these days. Away from the busier areas but an easy drive to anywhere. We will definitely look to stay here the next time we visit Galveston!
