Great roomy property by the beach. We had 9 people in our group and never felt in each others way. Very pet friendly with bowls provided for them. Also appreciated that they left bottled water and ice for us, as well as a water dispenser. The tap water is not recommended to drink in Galveston area.

We enjoyed our 3-night stay at this home. The kitchen was well stocked with necessities, and it was a plus for having an air fryer. Kids enjoyed fishing off the canal as well as the neighborhood pier. The property was pet-friendly and provided pet bowls for guests to use. The safety gate at the top of the stairs was nice to have. We noticed, though we did not need it, that there were baby/toddler amenities (high chair & pack n play) stowed in the closet. Neighbors were nice as well!

Thank you, Vinh,for the review. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. I am a bit surprised that you found the house a bit small, as it has 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, LR, DR, and Kitchen, comprising almost 1200 sq ft in addition to the two enormous decks.
