FANTASTIC!!!!!

We travel a bit and this has to be one of our top locations. This house was MUCH better in person than the pictures did justice! It's maybe 2 min walk to the beautiful beach and sand. The neighborhood is quite and feels safe. We loved how welcoming the owners were and responded to questions within minutes of us reaching out. They supplied everything you could possibly need and even had a dog kennel provided! We cannot recommend this property enough!

Great escape for a week

We really enjoyed our time at this property. Jennifer was very quick to answer all my questions. It was our first vacation with our pets. I was very happy to have them with us, we avoided a lot of stress leaving them with sitters or pet hotel. I greatly appreciate that Jennifer let us have them with us. So I went ahead and groomed them the day before we left to have less shading. Need to mention that property has everything you possible will need. We mostly cook our meals from scratch, trying to eat less restaurant, and we were able to cook a wide variety of food without running into shortage of some kitchen utensils or appliances. The pictures and description are correct. Everything was as pictured. The check-in and -out was as easy as stepping into or out of the room. I was pleased to know I don't have to bring my beach chairs and wagon. Taking showers outside was a breeze after the beach. So convenient. I defiantly recommend this property!

Nice little beach Vacation

Everything was great, nice home, beach is a lot closer than it seems on the picture. Gave it 4 stars because the A/c went out but Jennifer fixed it right away, we went to dinner came back and it was fixed. A closet shelf fell & living room tv stop working the last day we were there so that’s why I put 4 stars but other than simple little mishaps that could of happened to anyone, it was nice, quiet, the beach was steps away. We had a great time & Jennifer is great.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Findley

I am a mom of 2 beautiful kids with a husband of 17 years and a Rotarian with a passion for giving back to my community. After completing a long career in the tech sector, I wanted to find a way to invest in our future while enjoying time with family and friends. Hosting a vacation home in Galveston fulfilled both of goals and allows me to share our family's beach house with families all over the world.

Why they chose this property

Our family vacationed in Pirates Beach for years making memories on the beach just steps away and enjoying this neighborhood so close to downtown Galveston for the food and nightlight but far enough away to feel like you are on vacation (Island Time).

When we had a chance this year to become residents of Pirates Beach we decided to open up our house to share a what we love – trading the daily routine for downtime, enjoying the sun, surf, and seafood, and making new memories.

We hope you enjoy your time here and the following pages are meant to make it easy!
