It’s a beautiful house, well appointed and tastefully decorated. The number of decks is a huge plus, as is having a golf cart to make the trip to the beach easy. I’d have preferred a location closer to the beach, but this was a great house for a getaway.The closed bar that sits next to it is somewhat of an eyesore, but nothing the owner could do about that. I also appreciated that it was pet friendly and had plenty of cooking utensils, towels and linens.
Great location, wonderful views, and even thoughtful provisions for the washing machine and dishwasher.Great communication from Christy, and loss of fun talking the golf cart to the beach, all leading to the family having a wonderful time.
The beach house was ok, the beds were comfortable and there was enough room for everyone. There were some chipped tiles and I stepped on some of the sharp pieces, there were some spots upstairs that seemed like the sub flooring was missing, and unfortunately for us the golf cart wasn’t working during our stay. The owner did have someone come out to fix it but it wasn’t able to be fixed before our stay ended.
I can't express how much we enjoyed this beach house! It had everything we needed and was perfectly able to accommodate not just the 3 adults, but also the 7 kids with us! It had exceptional views of the beach, and the walk down to it was short and sweet. 100% would recommend and would stay again in the future.

So great to hear you enjoyed your stay so much, Deborah! Thank you again for staying with us!
We loved this beautiful home! It was walking distance to the private beach, had all the things we needed in the kitchen, beautifully decorated, nicely laid out. The beds were unbelievably comfortable. It was nice and neat and clean and very quiet. We had a wonderful family vacay!
This property was in a perfect location and very comfortable for my family of 10, during our visit to Galveston this July. In particular, all the beach amenities were a huge bonus, making it so much easier to travel a bit lighter. We would definitely stay here again.

Aug. 1, 2026: Our family was so excited for vacation, we rented a van for all 9 of us and drove 14 hours, arriving late at night to check in. We originally rented the home for 5 nights but were calling vrbo for a new place after 1 night. I will give Christy credit for being transparent of the conditions of her home & assisting us in a full refund.The reason for a negative review it because the homeowner knew of the home issues but via text messaging was concerned about getting the home cleaned as soon as we checked out which leads me to believe she isn't planning on fixing the home before renting again. I would not want anyone to have to do what we did and waste an entire day moving in/moving out/moving into another place. And we also have a pregnant mama in which the living conditions are unacceptable.The home is uninhabitable. We found giant, live and dead roaches (the biggest ones I've encountered), mold in/outside of cupboards (multiple places), holes in the floor covered with thin particle board, loose/sticking up nails & boards on the deck, broken tiles & floor in the kitchen, dirty walls, moldy vents, the couches smelled of dog pee in multiple places, dried blood on a pillowcase. Even though the beds were very comfortable, it's not worth it to sleep with giant roaches & breathing in mold.
We loved staying at this house. It was very close to the beach with a great view. Lots of patio seating outside, great layout inside, lots of beach toys to play with. We would definitely come back!

We loved this property! Beautiful views of the beach!
The golf cart is a great addition so that you don’t have to haul your beach gear on foot.
We would stay here again.

About the host
Hosted by Christy
Hi there! I am a wife and mother of 3 littles who LOVE the beach! We are excited to have a beach home to visit and to share with guests. We hope that you love it as much as we do! While we currently live in Indiana, my husband used to live in Houston and loves all things Texas!
Why they chose this property
As soon as I saw the pictures of this property, I fell in love. The neighborhood is one of the best on the island and the lot is so private with unobstructed views, and so close to the beach! The octagon shape and atrium/skylight makes it unique and fun. We are so happy to have this peaceful escape from busy life.
What makes this property unique
While it only takes 5 minutes to walk to the private beach, the golf cart comes in handy if anyone needs some extra assistance getting around. And the wrap around porch on two levels provide wonderful views of the ocean from each room and bedroom.
