Great location just steps from the beach. House was very clean and the owner was nice and easy to communicate with. Grocery store very close by was an added convinience.
The location as absolutely perfect! The house is away from the business of Galveston. The inside of the house is cute and the perfect size for two people (although there is certainly room for more). The outside of the house needs some work, but nothing enough to interfere with our stay. The furniture in the living room is different than the picture, but itâs an upgrade. It was a Wonderful way to spend our 35th anniversary.
My family and I recently stayed at this beach house for our vacation, and overall, it was a mixed experience. The location is undeniably the star of the showâwith a convenient walking path for direct beach access. The covered porch was another highlight, offering stunning views of the coastline, and the frequent pelican flyovers were a family favorite. The house is also within walking distance of a gas station and a small grocery market, which was also very convenient. The house itself, while comfortable enough and functional for our needs, could use some TLC. The biggest downside was the pest situation. Ants and roaches were a persistent issue, both inside and outside the house. We found ants in the queen-sized bed while trying to sleep and pretty much everywhere elseâon the floors, rugs, bathrooms, kitchen, and more. The house didnât provide laundry detergent for the washing machine, so we had to purchase our own. The same went for basic toiletries like shampoo, which wasnât a big deal but is worth noting for future guests to come prepared. The check-in process was easy, though I had to proactively request the details from the host on the day of arrival. With some updates and better maintenance, this could be a 10/10 rental.
Our family of four stayed here for three nights and had a great time! The second bedroom was perfect for our kids to share and we enjoyed the separate bathrooms as well. The location cannot be beat, such a short walk and you're on the beach. Can't wait to come back!
This is a cute little house. The location can't be beat, and the view is gorgeous! The house itself does need a few repairs, but overall is a nice place, and was clean and tidy when we arrived. We would stay here again.
Best view, beach at your feet! Watched sunrise from the deck each morning and the waves roll all day! House could use an instruction book, couldnât get TV to work in main bedroom. Pics online are not detailed, the place is roomy and has lots of beds baths. Kitchen could use some pest control, but itâs on the beach so some bugs are expected. Great location!
We booked a last minute trip over the Thanksgiving holiday and were lucky to get a spot at Gulf Palms. The owner was gracious and we loved the property! Would recommend to a friend.
Absolutely charming place! Far enough out of the âbigâ city but close enough to have everything at your fingertips. Owner was a pleasure to work with. Will make this our âgo toâ place!
The host was easy to get ahold of and polite. The property itself was well equipped, cozy, and the view was unbeatable. We were able to cook every night of our stay and enjoy being able to eat with a view of the ocean. The easy access to the beach was a big plus we loved being able to walk down to the beach multiple times a day as we pleased instead of having to just set up and stay out all day. The furniture was pretty and comfortable and the beds were very comfortable. Overall we enjoyed every minute of our stay and we would definitely stay again in the future.
The house was just what we needed. We had 7 in our group, plenty of space for our family. With it being on a restricted beach area, my grandkids had time and space to play in the water, lay out on the beach, and chase crabs at night without worrying about getting in someone's way.
Would definitely like an opportunity to stay here again. I had to contact the property owner a couple of times about some minor things, but all in all, my family and I made some lasting memories
Location is a big selling point.
The beach home was very inviting and gave us enough privacy from the other homes nearby. Plus its proximity to the beach was perfect (not too crowded). We loved watching the pelicans fly over, beachcombing, and building sand castles. The new downstairs addition gave us plenty of space. Mr Buish was very helpful with answering our questions during our stay. Overall, we had a wonderful time and I hope we'll get the opportunity to visit again next year.
Our family had an absolutely wonderful stay at this property! We traveled with a special needs child, dogs, and two other children. The check-in process was simple and seamless, the property was sparkling clean, and the online description was accurate.
The location of the property is a bonus. An easy walk to the nearby gas station/grocery store, a short drive into Galveston proper, and directly on the beach!
The home is well stocked with supplies and it was convenient to grill on our first night there. My youngest son saw his first sunrise from the beach directly in front of the house, and our morning coffee tasted even better while we sipped it on the covered deck while watching the waves.
Definitely would love to stay again in the future!
