Check in was flawless the elevator eased are movement of luggage, groceries, and our elderly Mother. The beach view was beautiful and the sands was scrapped and cleanup the first day we arrived. We would recommend this home for anyone needing the elevator services
This is a fabulous house right on the beach. We were 3 older couples-the family reunion at this house was so relaxing with all of us sitting on the deck soaking in the beach, waves and birds. We cooked all our meals. The kitchen is well stocked for making anything. The living room area is generously sized and we had room for everyone. The beds are comfortable and having our own bathrooms was wonderful. Couldn't recommend it high enough. Crystal is very responsive and easy to get hold of.
This was a perfect property for our 3 families. The kids had a lot of space to play and the 2 balconies were a plus. There was a lot more dishes, glasses, pot and pans, etc. in excellent condition, a lot more than any other property we have stayed at.
The location of this property is great - facing the beach and on the street across from the Big Store. We also love that it is not in a crowded area. It is on a nice size lot, and there is an empty lot next door. There are essentially 4 suites, so everyone in our group gets their own bedroom and bathroom. The kitchen is well equipped with appliances and utensils. The host is easy to work with. She provides good instructions, and is prompt to respond to questions. Most of the windows face the beach, so you can see the waves while cooking, while watching TV, whatever. It has an available elevator which is the only way my disabled husband can stay in a beach house. This was our second stay. We didn't see the point in staying somewhere else, when we know that this house was perfect for our needs!
All aspects of our stay were fantastic! The house is beautiful and it had everything that we needed. It didn’t hurt that we experienced near perfect weather with clear blue skies and temperatures in the 70s. Just perfect to enjoy on the spacious decks that the house offered.
Host was very responsive and supportive. House was in good repair and clean. Had everything we needed. Towels were provided but we had to hunt for them. Finally found them in an upstairs bathroom in the drawers of all places. View is best on the beach. Great furniture and beds. Beautiful beautiful house with plenty of room to host a whole family. Elevator was a perfect amenity for our aging guests. Perfect location on the island. Highly recommend.
The house is very nicely appointed. The layout of the bedrooms was especially perfect with one large master on the main floor, and 3 additional bedrooms upstairs all with doors opening onto the large upper deck. All the bedrooms have wonderful unobstructed views of the ocean and their own bathrooms. The beds were comfortable and there were lots of extra pillows. The elevator was critical in being able to assist my elderly, frail parents up to the house and down to the beach. It was lovely even with the less than stellar weather. Crystal was extremely responsive with every inquiry. We had a wonderful time.
This is our second time at the property and it will always be our place of choice when we want to go back. What drew my attention was the elevator option but even if we didn’t need that, the place combined with beachfront location will always draw me back.
We stayed here over Memorial Day weekend and had an amazing experience. The location couldn’t be better—right on the beach with stunning views and easy access to the sand. The home was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we needed to relax and enjoy our stay.Our host was awesome—super responsive and helpful with any questions we had before and during the trip. It’s clear they care about making guests feel welcome.We definitely plan to come back. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a relaxing, beachfront getaway!
Great family getaway...the location of this house was perfect! The elevator was an added bonus, loved the space with bedrooms all will with a view and all had their own bathroom! Great communication with host!
We had a great time at this property. Host is communicative. Great location next to the beach. Plenty of room. The elevator was useful for the senior citizen with knee issues. We plan to be back
Very tranquil and relaxing place to charge batteries for the year to come. Very quiet with great sea and beach views. Sunrises are to die for, fantastic.
Beautiful home and great beach front location. Loved every bedroom having its own bathroom. Well stocked and nicely furnished. Elevator is a great amenity. You will love staying here. We will be back!
We’ve stayed in several different rentals in Galveston and the peninsula recently and this property and property manager are hands down our favorite. Accommodations were beautiful and location was perfect! What an amazing place to spend our first NYE together. Thank you, Crystal!
This has been the best rental we have ever stayed at! It is clean and has everything you could ever imagine needing. The property was clean, the neighborhood was quiet. The location was excellent! It was just perfect!
The house itself is just gorgeous!
You will not regret staying here!
The only sad thing was that we had to leave......but we will stay here again for sure!
A few days away to celebrate my daughter’s graduation from college. It was the perfect space for my family to spend time together. The accommodations were excellent and the space had every amenity needed for our stay. It was perfectly set right next to the beach which made for marvelous sunrises and scenery. Would definitely book again!

Hi Steven, I am glad you enjoyed our homes location and outdoor spaces! You made me aware of the water pressure and outdoor shower and when I asked if I could send my handyman to repair them, you didn't respond to me.
They have now been repaired and now I know about the elevator door and will fix that too (salt air is hard on everything so we need to provide constant upkeep but only know about issues when guests tell us!). If you had mentioned any cleanliness issues, we would have taken care of that as well, but you didn't mention it.
Really nice house, with lovely 4 bedrooms and 4 1/2 bathrooms, a beautiful kitchen with everything you need, and amazing views from every room. I love having an elevator and the plus is, it goes to the second story of the house so no having to carry heavy luggage up the steps making check-in and check-out soooo much easier. The deck has plenty of tall chairs so you can see over the railing. These things make a big difference to me. We loved our stay and wish we had more time to stay longer.
This place is so nice. It has everything you need plus more. Besides the things that are listed this beautiful home also provides Kleenex’s, Clorox wipes, night lights, high chair, floor fans (besides the ceiling fans), and the recliners are so comfortable!!
We had a fantastic time staying here! The house is so gorgeous and spotless. There was a ton of games to play with in the house and tons of beach toys too!. The furniture was exactly what we needed for my 84 year old Mother to sleep in, She does not like to lay all the way down in a bed and the recliner chairs worked perfect for her. Everything was so nice and beautiful. Thank you for a wonderful time!

Why they chose this property
Our home is one of few homes with ocean views from all of the bedrooms! All bedrooms also have their own bath! So no fighting over the best room, because they are all top notch! We are the closest beachfront home to the Big Store! As the locals say, if the Big Store doesn't have it, you don't need it! Our home is centrally located with a beach walkover only separated from our home by an empty lot. Our area of the beach is one of the quieter areas with less traffic.
