This is our second stay at this property for our family vacation. We love this house for it's beauty and history, convenience and the outdoor oasis. Even the grandkids (6 & 10) ask me to book "our house". The host is very responsive. We highly recommend this property!
The house is beautiful and as that old world charm to its structure. The backyard area is what sold us on this spot and it was perfect. The atmosphere was nice and quiet place to relax with family. It is only a few blocks from the beach. So we spent the morning there and retreated back to the private pool in the afternoon. The pool/hot tub area is a nice place to relax.Ms. Ramona was quick to answer any questions we had. I highly recommend this Galveston hideaway.
Loved the beauty of the house! Pool was amazing! Loved how spacious everything was! Host was great!Only Complaints would be:Downstairs apartment needing a little extra cleaning. T.v in downstairs didnât work Guy came in to clean pool and startled everyone but didnât have to stop swimming or anything Everything else was great and highly recommend!!!!!!
We had the best time. There is so much space for a family to spread out! We love the piol and the gourmet kitchen! We definitely will stay here when we come back to Galveston again! Thanks Ramona!
Great Location for Convenient Access to Restaurants and Bars
This was a perfect location for hosting a group of good friends (mostly attorneys and engineers in our late 30s/early 40s) for a weekend of enjoying the best restaurants and bars Galveston Island has to offer. Plenty of space for everyone, and we were walking distance to both The Strand and the beach. The outdoor space was a perfect place to hang out as well. Nice, quiet neighborhood. The host, Ramona, was very responsive and friendly. Would definitely stay here again!
Stunning house. Most responsive host Iâve ever experienced. Never waited longer than 5 minutes for an answer or instruction. Short walk to the beach through a wonderful Old Galveston neighborhood. Beds and linens were very comfortable. Bring extra towels if you plan to swim/hot tub. Great outside seating & eating areas.
We came to Galveston to attend the Dickens on the Strand and celebrate my sisterâs 50th birthday. We had an amazing time. We normally rent a beach house but I was happy to find a historic home with room for our family. We had a wonderful time. The home is historic and so charming. We will definitely stay again.
One of the best vacations we had. The home was beautiful, clean and very comfortable. Ramona was wonderul to work with. She gave us many tips about the must see places and good restaurants too. We are ready to schedule our next trip there.
The host is fantastic! this antique home is fantastic and very well supplied. plenty of room for a large group. We went for the Lone Star Motorcycle rally and the location is very well suited to both sides of the rally (walking distance). The pool is beautiful and the neighbors are very friendly.
Great fun and relaxation at the house, and fun activities and great food around the area. Kitchen and baths well appointed. Contact immediately responsive every time.
If youâre looking for a spacious home for a family vacation - this is it!!! The historic charm of the house is the cherry on top! The backyard oasis was loved by all ages and the massive hot tub was very relaxing! The checkin and checkout process was super easy and the hostess was quick to respond with any questions we had. We highly recommend this home and do plan on staying here again!!
The home is a beautiful home steeped in history. The original hardwoods, the ornate ceilings, the large windows and more! The backyard had a wonderful custom pool with a huge Hottub. There was plenty of comfortable seating areas, an outdoor television and
A clean grill. The host was friendly and helpful. We will be back.
a clean grill.
This was a beautiful 1800's historical home. We absolutely loved our stay here. And the pool was so beautiful and inviting. Our family had a wonderful time here. It was spacious and had everything we needed. Many wonderful memories were made here. We will definitely come back again!
I have seen many historical homes here but when I walked in here my jaw dropped. The ceilings are fabulous and layout is convenient for everybody. Everything in here was updated and the location was great on the island. The previous owner was son of the founder of Thunderbird Wine and he said he spent a 100K on the backyard alone. I basically only had to add a TV so guest can watch collage football while able to lounge in the hot tub.. Lets face it after a day at the beach its good to swim in clean water. You can stay on the west end but the beaches are cleaner in front of the hotels on the east end so why not get the best of both worlds. Loads of resturants and entertainment just blocks away! So all the action is right outside your door.
Very few rentals here have 1 story with all bedrooms on the same floor. The apartment below is just icing on your cake as this could host a few teenagers if they like their own living space. It's a one bedroom with sleeping for 4 . The adults could all be upstairs and have the quietness they want. If you are here for motorcylce rally the garage below could store 10 or more bikes in a secure area at night.
