Cute house. Easy check in and out. Easy location just a few blocks from the seawall. Owners had great communication. Parking was easy. We really enjoyed our stay.
The house looked exactly like its pictures. Very clean! It was perfect for my family of 6. The decor was wonderful and definitely made us feel like we were on vacation. Sheets and towels provided was very helpful!
Perfect place to stay for family trip to Galveston
This house is very cute and very clean and well kept. It's super close to anything you would want to do in Galveston. The hosts are very accommodating and answered questions quickly. We will definitely stay here again in the future.
My family and I had a great time here! The house was clean and accommodating, especially for our toddlers! It is also less than a 5 minute drive from the beach! Erica was super sweet and communicative! Definitely recommend!
This was a beautiful home located close to the beach and the strand. Great location. The house was very clean and cozy. There was plenty of comfortable beds and everyone slept good. Quiet neighborhood. The check in process was extremely simple. The host was very helpful and easy to contact if needed. I would definitely stay here again!
We had an amazing time! The house is literally so close to everything. Such a cute and cozy house. The host was readily available. She left a beach bucket with goodies in it for my girls and a bottle of wine. The neighbors were so friendly. The only complaint is that one neighbors dog barked a lot when trying to sleep at night.
We had an amazing experience with this property. The hosts were very quick to respond to me and they went way above and beyond to accommodate us. The house was incredibly clean, well decorated, and super cozy. They even left sand buckets and bubbles for each of my boys to enjoy, as well as water bottles in the fridge. I am very pleased with our stay and they made our first journey to Galveston a great one!
Great little house with tons of character! Host was absolutely fantastic! Yard was fully fenced, which was great for our pup! House was honestly a lot quieter than we were expecting. We stayed in November and had no problems with HVAC - house was really comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend and I would stay here again!
Close to everything. Very Clean. Everything you need for a comfortable stay. Fenced yard in front and back perfect for traveling with a small dog. Plenty of room for a small family. May be crowded for a family with a few women as only one full bathroom with the only mirror in the house. But our stay was perfect! Will definitely stay again.
Erica was an awesome host. Very easy to communicate with. The house was very nice, very clean, quiet neighborhood. Close to seawall and not far from The Strand. She was there from the beginning to explain everything and also sent everything in writing which I so needed. They were even nice enough to clean out the garage for us to use to store our bikes since we were there for Rally Weekend 2022.
This place is wonderful! There's everything you'd need!
We went on our first vacation with our youngest child recently and rented this house so we could go with our 2 older boys(9 yrs and 11yrs) and our youngest (18 months) and my inlaws all in one place. There was the perfect amount of space for ALL OF US!! We originally planned on sharing our bed with the baby but turns our she had a pack in play there for him! There's board games and beach toys, wash and dryer and the back yard has the softest grass I've ever stepped on. Erica was a wonderful renter on top of it! She called us to offer us recommendations for the area on food and fun for the family and left us a bottle of wine to wined down with along with sand pales and toys for the boys to keep. We had a wonderful time staying here. 5 stars.
The online photos of this home were very appealing and did not disappoint at all in real-life! It had everything needed for a great visit: Friendly, helpful and caring owners, light, bright and inviting house and lovely decorated with quality furnishings. Even-though the house seems very small from the street, it is very deceiving, as it is quite spacious on the inside. The open-plan living area is very usable and practical/family-friendly. The house was also ideal for our little dog, with grass in the front and the back. Backyard is also a nice area for barbecue and Smores in the Chimnea. There are enough TV's for those family members that enjoy it. It was also very close to the beach and all the restaurants etc. without the high traffic and noise. This home really had everything we needed plus a lovely atmosphere at a very good price! We had a lovely weekend and would highly recommend this home (and it's very kind owners too:)
This VRBO was perfect!!! It was spotless and beautifully decorated!! My husband, myself, and our three kids 6,4,1, plus my parents had plenty of space!! The front and back yard are completely fenced, which is a great plus for our two small dogs!! The house has everything you can think of plus more! There was plenty of board and card games and even beach toys!!! Most nights we enjoyed cooking on the BBQ pit out back and then coming together in the kitchen/living room area to play goldfish and watching LSU for the night. The house is located perfectly in a quiet neighborhood, close to the seawall, strand, moody gardens, and Schlitterbahn! On top of all that Erica is amazing host, she answers within minutes! She provided all the information on the best things to do on the island and left goodies for the kids and some wine for the adults to enjoy!! I would highly recommend staying her to anyone and look forward to our next vacation here!! 10 stars!!
I was very impressed with the house - it was very clean and very pretty inside - I would recommend anyone to come stay - I myself might go back in July
Our two friends and my husband and I stayed for January and February in Galveston. This VRBO was perfect!!! It was spotlessly clean; it was beautifully appointed and decorated; it had great gathering places (the kitchen and the living room, and the wonderful fenced-in yards), and then places where we could be private. Everything we needed for our stay was provided. The location of the house was great. It was about halfway between the Seawall and the Strand, so it was convenient for all of the Mardi Gras celebrations. Erica and Hollis were wonderful!! If I texted Erica about a question, she always answered back within a few minutes. We all became quite fond of Erica and Hollis, and Mr. Billy, our neighbor. I absolutely, 100%, recommend this VRBO location.
We loved this little house on the Island. It was plenty big enough for us, providing enough beds for even more than we needed, a comfy and inviting living area, big kitchen, and everything we needed. Having a BBQ pit available for our steaks & ribs, gave us a great place to cook our delicious meals. The dishwasher made it nice not having to waste our quality time in front of the sink. Perfect little get-a-way for a family or extended family.
I cannot say enough great things about this property or the hosts! Excellent communication! Extremely accommodating! So incredibly thoughtful! Had everything we needed! Thank you so much for the wine and sand buckets with goodies! That was so sweet! Thank you for allowing our fur babies! Just, THANK YOU! You guys rock! We would recommend to anyone!
Hi we live locally in Galveston County and are only 25 minutes to the house!!! Please ask us about any recommendations on restaurants or things to do. We love the island and its honestly our second home. We love boating, fishing and are always on the water. Please let me know if you have any special needs or requests. We can help in any way possible!!!
This property is centrally located in Midtown. Walking distance to Pennies, Shrimp and Stuff and the amazing and famous Chef Mary Bass place (La Cocina on 39th). Our street is super quiet and peaceful and located directly between Ave O and Ave P. Getting around the island is super easy being directly in the middle!!!
Front yard and back yard for the families to play and have fun. We are dog LOVERS, but PLEASE and I am begging PLEASE make sure to pick up after your pets or we will have to discontinue being pet friendly.
