GREAT PLACE
We recently stayed at the McGuire Dent House in Galveston. We had a group of 17 with kids as young as 2 and 4 years old. Plenty of room and bathrooms for our group. Within walking distance to the beach and restaurant's. Would recommend for large groups or family.

A GREAT VACATION!
We had an excellent stay! The communication was awesome and checking in was a breeze. The home was walkable to the beach, to great restaurants, and super comfortable when we were inside. The kitchen had everything we needed and we felt super relaxed. A great stay!

Cruise Crew 2024
We were a party of 10. Great location. Comfortable accommodation. It was so nice for each couple to have their own space and yet we were able to eat, hang out and play games together. Unfortunately, the suites are not stocked very well. Minimal dishes and no salt or pepper etc. we could get the lights on in the bottom suite (we arrived after dark). We called the property manager and they sent someone right way. Over all we had a great time in Galveston before our cruise and would recommend this location for a group.
