Great Stay
Really nice accommodation for the seven of us. We stayed prior to our cruise and it was an awesome place. The only thing I would recommend is larger soft blankets, although being in Texas you don’t usually need blankets!

Galveston getaway
Smartly updated two bedroom house not far from the seawall. Very clean and fresh. Great for couple or smaller group. Two bathrooms were a plus. We would stay again without hesitation.

Exceeded expectations
We had an absolute wonderful time staying at this house. A close walk to the Seawall, beach, water and plenty of restaurants. The house is well stocked, communication was excellent and the neighbors was quiet. would highly recommend staying here.

Very Clean!
Super clean home with friendly, fast communication with the host. Location is close to groceries, restaurants, etc, but located on a pretty busy road with not much to view from the balconies. Maybe this is a common thing for Galveston cottages, but the big drawback for us was that all the windows were shuttered at least halfway or all the way from the outside. Luckily we weren’t in the house much during the day. The house is clean and painted brightly, but if you want to let light in, this wouldn’t be the house for you. Otherwise, 5 stars!
