The place was great! We enjoyed every minute of it and appreciated the outdoor amenities so we did not have to eat out the whole time, we could stay there and grill. Within walking distance of everything we needed and overs were readily available. We will definitely be looking to stay here again
This property seemed near new if not new. For the most part the amenities and furniture in this unit were really quite nice especially for the price. The owners have provided nice touches with provision of beach chairs, umbrella and bikes.
The area itself was a little run down but I think that is just Galveston in general after the flooding they have experienced historically and the economy. Everything was conveniently located and the beaches were quite nice considering it is the Gulf and not the east or west coast.
The couches and the beds in the bunk room were great quality, better than I expected; however, if you do not prefer a VERY firm mattress, the master bedroom queen will make this place NOT be a good fit for you! My husband's back couldn't tolerate how hard the bed was and after the first two nights he had to move to the couch for nights 3-5 of our stay. I like me a firm mattress normally but this was still uncomfortable for even me.
The property managers were very responsive but there were a couple of things lacking which are just very basic and you don't notice them until you need them - only two trash bags and two rolls of toilet paper were provided for a party of 6 for a 5-night stay. These two things just seem pretty obvious as not enough. I understand that some guests will steal things if you supply too much extra but only 2 of each of these were just not enough.
I would likely stay at another property offered by the hosts,

From the owner:
"Thanks for your review! We are thrilled to hear you enjoyed the house aesthetics and the extras that we offer such as the beach chairs, bikes, (we also have indoor/outdoor games for the family), and beach towels are provided, as well.
Providing an inclusive and welcoming environment for all of our guests is at the forefront of our mission, but sometimes external factors like the neighborhood and surrounding area are simply out of our control. Our home is close to everything, the beach, seawall, Pleasure Pier, the historic district, and all of the restaurants!
Everything in the home is new, including the Temperpedic king mattress in the master bedroom. Keep in mind, new beds are going to be firmer than the ones people use in their own homes every day. Everyone has different preferences and we try to accommodate with everyone's needs in mind. We have since changed out the Temperpedic for a King medium plush pillow mattress in the main room.
Regarding stocked items, we want to be fair towards everyone that stays with us so we implement a "standard primary and backup" to the items we provide free of charge. However, I personally send a welcome text to all of our guests letting them know that they can reach out at any time if they need anything. We do not fully stock everything as we do not know what is required for each individual guest. Additionally, we have installed a bidet so we are not wasting "one-use" items. Our guest contact is available to assist with any issue or concern you may have while in residence and we encourage our guests to reach out immediately for a most comfortable stay.
Thanks again for your kind words. We have worked very hard to provide a clean and comfortable place for guests to enjoy and will continue to do all we can to provide the best possible stay for our guests!"
