We had a wonderful stay in this lovely home with great views of the ocean. It had everything we needed and Angela was such a responsive and kind host. We over from the UK visiting our son in Houston but would love to come back and stay again in this perfect place!
Our family enjoyed our stay. The proximity to the beach and views are great. The neighborhood is also very nice and quiet if you’re wanting to stay away from some of the other busier beaches. The house was the perfect size for our group and met all of our needs.
We came with friends who had never been to Galveston before so it was fun to show off our happy place. The house was very nice and comfortable. We especially loved the proximity to the beach. Thank you for sharing your vacation home with us! Amy and Mike from oklahoma
This was our families second year staying at this house and we absolutely loved it! We came in the day after TS Alberto hit and while the tide was high the first couple of days, the weather was gorgeous, the waves were so much fun for my 7 yr old boys to ride and we found so many amazing seashells! We cannot wait to book the house again next year.
We loved the house and location. We always stay in this neighborhood bc of private beach access and relaxed vibe. The house itself was great minus a few things. I would give 5 stars but a couple of things for our personal family makes me rate it 4 stars: 1. There was dust bc it looked like the last person there was there a month before. There was still some trash and random things underneath places like the bed. There are a couple of janky chairs outside and we found some random rusty screws. ALL of those things were found by our 3 year old. 2. We choose houses 95% for cleanliness bc we have a kid allergic to dog dander/hair. One bed had short black (probably dog) hairs so she didn’t sleep in that bed. The others were clean. 3. It advertised shampoo/conditioner/dishwasher liquid but had none. Found some cheap at the dollar general 5 minutes down the road but it was an extra trip and money. 4. I always pick up paper plates and cutlery bc most houses only have enough for 4-6 people. I need more that that when cooking and serving. Also, there were no oven mitts so we used a beach towel. Overall, if the kids were a little older without allergies, it would be excellent. Pros!!!: about 5 houses from beach, multiple balconies, family games, some books, tv in each room, dvds and dvd player in bunk bed room, on quiet part of the west end, ice cream truck comes by on Saturday evening, great kitchen area for cooking, has most supplies needed. Great for most families!
Our stay was very enjoyable. The house was perfect for our time at the beach. Stocked with everything you. The owner was quick to respond to questions.
We have stayed here before and hope to again in future. It's our favorite spot for family retreats. Thank you to the owners for sharing their property!
Stayed with husband, daughter and two grandkids Sunday thru Thursday. Lovely clean home, very comfortable and close to beach. Stayed down the street on the beach in May and prefer this house. Would definitely stay here again.
We had a great weekend getaway at Angela’s house. The location was perfect …the neighborhood was beautiful and the beach was just a short walk away. The house was clean and very comfortable for our family. Angela was available for a chat and she was a hospitable hostess. I would recommend this home for another beach getaway.
This home is literally steps away from the beach! We were there for a long weekend to soak up the sun and relax. The house was clean, well-decorated, and nicely stocked. Communication with Angela was prompt. We enjoyed ourselves and look forward to a return visit.
This is our third annual vacation with daughter and grandkids. We love this house because it is two minutes from the beach and very open and bright. House is perfect for multi generation families. My granddaughter calls it “our beach house” since she has been coming here since she was only one! 😊
We had a wonderful time at this beach house!! The location was perfect…we had breakfast on the deck, while listening to the sound of the ocean. And such a close walk to the beach!!
The house was clean and new feeling…and the kitchen was huge and beautiful.
Thank you for lending us your home, and for being the best host! We hope to be back next year!!
What a wonderful home! The location is perfect. I literally counted 115 steps from the driveway to the sand. The views from the deck were wonderful. The kitchen was one of the best that we have every had of all of the West End beach houses we have rented. We will rent this place again.
We had a blast on our week long stay. The house was stocked well with dishes, the beds were comfortable and the porch view was fantastic!!! The shutters were a huge plus, it kept the rooms dark which helped my 7 yr old twins to sleep in! The house is around 200 steps to the water. Will definitely come back!
We love everything about this property! It is a perfect fit for our small family of 5+1. this was our 4th stay. The location is superb, just a few houses back from the beach with a great view of the water from the deck and living room. The spacious living area of the house is full of light, the kitchen is well-equipped, the beds are comfortable.
The palm trees on either side of the house are a great asset as they provide a some privacy from the neighbors when we are on the deck, but don't interfere with the view. Our happy place.
Thank you to the owners!
You can't beat the location. We were half a block from the beach. From the deck you can hang out and watch the ocean. There are three bedrooms and the house had everything we needed. It was easy to order meals from local places and eat at the house. We could watch Netflix, CBS On Demand and YouTube. The neighborhood was quiet and it was only a few minutes drive into the main part of Galveston if you wanted. The owner was very responsive when we had a couple of comments. I went with my parents and my 12 yo son and everyone had their own room. Would definitely stay here again.
This property is practically perfect! My husband and I took our three young kids to the beach to celebrate the end of our school year. Everything from check-in to check-out was awesome. The beach is a 2 minute walk to the end of the quiet cul-de-sac. The beach itself was clean and quiet. The house was very clean and homey. It had everything you could want - a complete kitchen with a few staples (salt and pepper, aluminum foil, cling wrap and quart ziplocks bags), two clean and cute bathrooms complete with extra towels and toilet paper, a master bedroom, guest room and bunk room with noise fans, folding chairs and sand toys in the outside shower. The bunk room had a basket with miscellaneous games. We ate at Waterman’s and Mario’s Pizza - both were delicious! Angela was super sweet and prompt with the few questions we had. We will definitely be returning!
This is a lovely, well-equipped home that is a short and easy walk to the beach. I slept in the master bedroom and can honestly say it was the most comfortable bed I've slept on outside of my own. Others in my family also commented on how comfortable and inviting the entire house was. As the pictures show, you have beautiful, unobstructed views of the ocean from several places in the home. We loved sitting in either the living room or decks outside and watching the waves. This part of the beach is clean (we've stayed near the seawall before, and the Galveston beaches sadly often have trash - that was not the case here). It's about a 15 minute drive to town, which we preferred because we wanted a more low-key vacation away from so many people. The owner is incredibly communicative and helpful! We had an issue with an appliance, and she was very proactive in dealing with it and updating us along the way. I highly recommend this property!
