Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
The Host was very responsive and easy to communicate with, and we appreciated her efforts to address our concerns during our stay. Unfortunately, there were several issues that affected our overall experience. The cleanliness of the home and some of the equipment could have been much better, and several times appeared to be older and in need of maintenance or a more thorough cleaning. The location was convenient, and the renting a golf cart as many others recommended, definitely made getting around more enjoyable. The beach closest to the house also had quite a bit of seaweed and trash during our visit, which was disappointing. Overall, while we appreciated the host's kindness and responsiveness, we would likely choose a different place if we return to Galveston.

Response from VrboOwner on 1 Sept 2026
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for your kind words about communication during your stay. I’m glad we were able to stay responsive and work with you while you were here. I sincerely apologize that the cleanliness and condition of some items fell short of your expectations. We take guest feedback seriously and use it to improve. We’ve already addressed several of the points you raised and continue to review and update maintenance and cleaning standards between stays. Regarding the beach, seaweed and occasional debris are a natural occurrence along the shoreline that is outside any individual property’s control. It’s usually not particularly heavy but occasionally we do get a surge of it as do most beaches on the Gulf Coast. We understand it can be disappointing when conditions aren’t ideal, and we always hope guests are able to enjoy the beautiful stretches of beach in the area. Thank you again for your feedback, and we wish you all the best on your future travels.

The house was absolutely perfect! It had everything we needed and more. I especially loved that each bedroom had its own bathroom. The view was stunning. Melinda responded to every question I had almost instantly. If you’re looking for a great spot on the beach with beautiful views of the Gulf, The Princess and the Sea is your place!
