Amazing!!!

This is an amazing home! It's got everything you could possibly need, not to mention is beautifully decorated and has luxurious finishes. Our family of 5 had a wonderful time and there was still plenty of room to spare. The owners are also very friendly! We definately plan to stay here again!!

Overall a great experience!

This was a great house with a nice set up. We're outdoor people so the downstairs open bar area was amazing. After beaching all day the outdoor shower was wonderful. We were able to relax downstairs in the evenings, watch the Astros, have some cocktails, eat dinner and fish. Overall, this was an amazing stay and the owners responded to emails very quickly. We would recommend this property to anyone!

Great Canal home

We had a great stay in this home! The location was great, close to the pier and marina with a very short drive to a quiet beach. The house was large and clean and the layout was perfect with plenty of room for our family of 5 to spread out. The property owner was very communicative and pleasant as well. The downstairs kitchen was great! We turned on the TV inside while cooking and fishing for fun evenings. There are also some boogie boards and a few sand toys and chairs that were a great added bonus! If we return to Galveston we will definitely stay here again!

Wonderful Stay in Galveston

We had a wonderful stay in Galveston over the 4th of July weekend. My parents used to own a property in Sea Isle so we chose this area for our family reunion as we knew it well. The property was wonderful! Right on the canal - great for paddleboarding and fishing. We were there with loads of family - rented three properties in the area and this house was a great place to meet up and hang out. We loved the outdoor kitchen/bar area which also had a convenient 1/2 bath. There was a stereo for music and a large TV so we could watch the Astros' game. The house was very clean and well-stocked with pots/pans, linens, and even extra mattresses (if needed). The upper deck offered great views and the had plenty of chairs and a picnic table too. We even had a key to the pier. Tip: Rent a golf cart while you are there. We used K6 Golf Cart Rental and they dropped off/picked up at the property. This is a great way to get to and from the beach or the marina/pool/restaurant/pier. Also, the Marina has a market/gift store for staples and souvenirs. We didn't have the opportunity to eat at the restaurant, but it looked like a cool place to hang for some open-air drinks or a meal. Our host at the property was easy to communicate with before our stay, but we didn't need to reach out for anything while we were there. We will definitely consider this property during our next stay in Galveston!

I enjoyed the house. I was surprised with the well stocked kitchen utensils, pans, pots and other kitchen materials. I am used to bringing some of my own to make sure I have what I need. Extra skillets and cookie sheets for example. The kids really enjoyed fishing off the dock downstairs and use of the pier at the back of the neighborhood. My son caught bait fish at the house he used for his crab trap at the pier. By Sunday he caught enough crabs for the crab boil and they ate their hearts out.

Sea Isle Waterfront Getaway

Great location and easy to find in Sea Isle. Street is nice and quiet. Communication with owners was great as well. We brought our 24" boat and had no problems with parking our trailer at the house. Kitchen had all the basics to make meals and the grill was perfect for steaks. We enjoyed relaxing in the living room at the end of a long sunny day. Like other reviews stated the pictures definitely don't do the house justice. We really enjoyed hanging outside on the outdoor swing and bar area day and night. You must provide your own shower soap/shampoo/cond, so don't forget to pack that. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and look forward to coming back to Sea Isle!

Communication, Cleanliness, Spacious, Comfortable, and Nice Location.

I don't where to begin about the is property except for it was wonderful. We reserved for the Labor Day Weekend of 2022. Upon arrival the upkeep of the yard and cleanliness of the the lower patio was superb. Once waking into the home the open area layout was marvelous. Very clean, decor was perfect and the Central A/C system along with the ceiling fans made the home feel very cool and cozy. The bedrooms were nice and what is there to say about the beds, my family all said the beds were very comfortable. the view from the upper deck was beautiful. If I was a coffee drinker that would be my morning cup of joe spot. The lower deck bar area was very clean and the outside stove and fridge came in handy as we were able to stock the fridge and cook outdoors without being away from the fun. Also, the TV came in handy while we sat around the bar and watched our beloved Astros team The selection of DVD was nice. A great selection of kids, young teen and romance comedies. Though not classics, was more of a "remember this one, oh how about this one". We didn't have to worry about picking a movie that the kids could not watch with us. We took advantage of the DVD as we expected rain showers the entire weekend and when the rain did come we cozied up on the couch and popped in a movie Not the best weekend of fishing but we did catch some. MY daughter reeled in a 4ft Alligator Gar, we snapped a few pics and videos before it broke off. Other than that, a few catfish and croaker. We caught a couple of nice bluecrabs, the old school way, with string, a net and chicken neck. The WestEnd Marina was alive and kicking on Friday night. drinks, dinner, dancing and a little karaoke. In a nutshell it was a fantastic getaway and we look forward to using this property again in the not to distant future. Also, what came in handy was the black binder of instructions on how to go about check out and amenities in the area The only regret was we only stayed for 3 days.

Softball Tournament/Summer vacation

This property exceeded my expectations!!Where do I even start............ This home was beautiful and the pictures on vrbo do not do justice. It was very spacious and had VERY comfortable beds. My family came here for a 10u softball tournament/vacation and my kids wanted to swim in the Canal more than walk to the beach which is maybe 3 minutes from the place. The best part about it is the down stairs kitchen area. It was nice to enjoy the evening cooking on the pit withthe kids and friends and fishing the green lights.
