Nice place

It was a very cozy home, right next to the ocean. Only downside was the hot water didn't last very long so the Jacuzzi wasn't really an option. Other then that it was well worth it

Great location with responsive host

The house itself is great for a larger family and located just about 25 minutes from Space Center. We stayed after a new house cleaner and unfortunately it was less than ideal for cleanliness (floors covered in debris, dirty linens, bathroom had hair on tub, etc). I immediately reached out to the host and Monica was quick to respond and sought to make our stay a positive one. Overall, the house had plenty of seating and places for everyone to sleep. Two full baths was great. Neighborhood was quiet. The location was good if going to Space Center area or Galveston.

Great

Our family of 7 stayed at this property the night before our cruise. Only 25 min from the Galveston port and it worked out perfectly. House was clean and decor was beautiful with its ocean theme! Plenty of room and beds for everyone. Host was very nice and quick to respond with any questions I had. Would definitely recommend

Quick trip with the dogs

Could not of asked for a better vacation rental! Perfect house, perfect yard for the dogs, and great location away from busy traffic. House was ready and just as expected. We booked last minute to get away from our hometown where we had a blackout for several days. Short drive to entertainment and fishing spots. Galveston wasn't a far drive either. Monica was outstanding and quick on messaging back. I will definitely keep her and this rental in mind for our next trip to the area.

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL house!!!

This house was AMAZING!!! We have booked places before that the pictures of the place made it seem bigger then it was... NOT this house!!! This house the pictures don't do it justice. The house was plenty big enough for for me, my husband, and our three teenagers. There were games for us to have family game nights, a table we all fit

Lovely home close to Galveston

We stayed here over Thanksgiving weekend. Lovely house. Everything we needed was in the home. The beds were very comfortable. Only about 20 min drive to Galveston. If we go back to Galveston we would love to stay here again.
