Great location and view

Great location and view. Easy access to the beach. House sadly was not very clean. Floors were sandy. Had to rewash dishes we used. Wifi is very slow and remotes had no batteries. But the views were great.

We [mom, dad, several children] recommend this home, period. Pricing is exorbitant, though probably comparable to the market: it is after all ON the beach & during peak season. Some note lack of updates: we have no problem with it being basically an early ‘70s museum; kind of interesting being so different from our own home. Could there be things to improve? Yes. Mgmt should address the following, but if they don’t, then…KITCHEN: bring your own cutting boards & knives; bring your own can opener [both the electric &manual ones were already broken]; bring dishwasher detergent [There was a “starter kit” for the dishwasher, but for only one use]. LAUNDRY: bring your own clothes washer detergent. Other similar rentals we have experienced in the past provided these, so this was a bit of an inconvenience to us. Again, previous places provided ample. BATHROOMS: could have used a bit more towel supply; toilet paper was ample but horribly cheap, especially in light of the rental price.AC: very cold, definitely appreciated; Kitchen has a very large counter, great for family, big groups. Lots of beds.WIFI: strong signal.Location is superb: only 10-15 minute drive to the main island action, but far away enough to have lots of privacy time and space on the beach; Ideal and far more “family-friendly location. We definitely recommend this place, would stay here again. It’s expensive & could use more supplies especially in context of the high price, but we give it thumbs-up

Comfortable for 8-not more

We spent the weekend and really enjoyed the Galveston visit. This house sits right on the water and has lovely views from the deck. Previous feedback suggested the sheets were too rough and that the property needs some updates. All this is true. In addition, the property could use a good deep cleaning, vents were filthy, a large cockroach was seen, the couch was torn and worn.

It was ok but never again.

The view is amazing. Very easy access to beach. The chairs on the deck great! The beds nice. However, the place was dirty. I have photos. The stairs coming up need work and were bending with each step. And the communication with Vacasa SUCKED!! At one point they told me to call (xxx)xxx-xxxx. That’s it. No numbers, just x’s. I will never rent another vrbo from them again.

Disappointed

The oven was broken, we could not make cookies, bisquits, casserole; or a birthday cake. TVs did not work for half of our booking. The exhast fan over the stove did not work. Nails sticking out of decking. Injured my foor. Lost a week of work. Vrbo and host are not taking it seriously. I will be contacting a lawyer for lost wages and medical bills.

Great views...Ok home

This home has great beach access and view, which is pretty important in a beach vacation. The home itself was fine. May be better for a couple and children. Not enough toilet paper, lol. The biggest issue was when the AC went out was 87 degrees inside and maintenance was not able to fix it. Had to sleep in a hot and humid home and could not open windows due to no screens. When they could not fix it they recommended for US to go buy a portable AC. This ruined our last evening and final breakfast in the home. Just a bad ending to the vacation. We know things happen, but when maintenance showed us the AC filter i can honestly say it may never have been changed. This makes us believe that the ac issue could have been avoided and the owner wasnt taking care of the property which also made me question the cleanliness of the home. May have appeared ok but really wasnt. Just gross! They did offer a small redund, but definitely not we thought was fair. They offered less then half a day. We thought one day was fair. We had to spend time to wait for maintenance and sleep in ahot humid house. We did not make our dinner that was planned and had to spend more to go out and throw out the food that was bought. Overall we had a good time. Just all that left a bad feeling and definetly wouldnt stay in this home again. Almost forgot. If you do choose to stay in the house, watch the stairs to the loft. They are alick. My husband slipped and feel down the stairs.

The location was just perfect. We knew from the description it was an older home which was fine with our family. However, it really needs some help! This property needs some love! The kitchen is extremely cluttered and not as clean as it should be. Old unused food in pantry, dirty baking sheets, oven needs cleaning, etc. It needs someone to empty the kitchen and just start over with needed items - not a few coffee pots, tons of the same items causing clutter. There were plenty of beach toys which was great but it was just thrown in a closet and a mess! We did enjoy our family vacation. It is just a shame that this property has the potential to be one of the best around with a little help!

ON THE BEACH! WOULD RECOMMEND

Pricing is, of course, exorbitant, though probably relatively comparable to the market: it is after all ON the beach, and during peak, high-summer-season. Some past lodgers have noted the lack of updates: we have no problem with it being basically an early ‘70s museum; kind of interesting being so different from our own home. AC: very cold, definitely appreciated; Kitchen has a very large counter, great for family, big groups. Lots of beds. WIFI: great, strong signal, definitely appreciated. Location is superb: only 10-15 minute drive to the main island action, but far away enough to have lots of privacy time and space on the beach; you feel you almost have your own beach. Definitely ideal and far more “family-friendly” location. We definitely recommend this place, would stay here again. It’s expensive & could use more supplies especially in context of the high price, but we give it thumbs-up.

Family Vacation

We LOVED the beach house! Very cute and cozy. It has everything you need. Dishes and cookware, towels, extra bed linens and pillows, beach toys, beach chairs, shampoo/conditioner/body wash, washer and dryer. It slept 6 adults and 3 kids very comfortably. The location was perfect! Very short walk to the beach, maybe 25-30 steps. Things to know: the grill is gas ( bring a lighter), the coffee maker uses ground coffee (no k-pods, filters are supplied). Bring extra garbage bags. 2 bags are supplied as well and only 1 laundry pod. Great place to make some lasting memories☀️🌊🐚 Overall⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Spring break get away

The house is not terrible but certainly needs some love and attention. We could very much tell we were another number for a property management firm. There was no priority. We had to call for how to access the beach equipment. I also had to call for beach towels and waited 2 days for them. There was a number of cockroach visitors that we had to watch for which was very unsettling.
