Perfect Thanksgiving getaway

The Crab Claw house was perfect for our family for thanksgiving! The location is just far enough from the busy area but not too far. Plenty of room for family of 6. The living room is a nice set up for everyone to gather. Only complaint would be the appliances could be update but not a deal breaker! We would return in a heartbeat!

Great house

This house was much better than we expected! Perfect layout for our family. Beds were comfortable and plenty of room for us - 2 adults, 1 grandma, 2 kids. House has a ramp - so we loaded our stuff into our beach wagon and it was so easy to carry stuff up and down. Quick walk to the beach. We will stay here again!

Clean & well appointed. Could use small fans in bedrooms without ceiling fans. Interior stairs very steep, so maybe caution for small children! Beautiful place with nice view of beach!

Perfect location!

We have stayed in this property before and will book it every time! Perfect for our family just far enough from town to avoid the crowds! Always clean and beds are comfy! If i had any suggestions it would be make sure the nails are nailed down on the deck and clothes washer makes a crazy sound when draining. Tjose aren't complaints just notes.

Perfect Beach Location

The rental process was so easy with frequent communication from the property managers! The house location was so perfect just steps from the very quiet beach! The house was very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed !! Our only complaints were ants ..in bathroom but they were also outside and on beach so maybe a nature thing… we would book again !

Wonderful spotless comfy home Great location to beach

Everything you need for a beach holiday . Home was super clean with everything you would need . The downstairs bedroom could do with a ceiling fan . Outdoor deck lovely however with young children and small dogs you would need to be vigilant the posts are pretty wide . Beach view is wonderful I could hear the waves crashing it’s a very short walk most definitely looks further away in the pictures . Great neighborhood .

Christmas Away

We stayed in Crab Claw over Christmas and the neighborhood was very quiet and the beach relaxing. We all had a great time and chose Crab Claw for the layout and decor and proximity to the beach. We have stayed at several beach homes and the only thing we could say to add to this would be to provide more beach equipment and outdoor activities. We had to pack a lot of boards and sand toys and sports balls, that would have been convenient to have had at the house. Bikes would be fun to have to ride around, or a hammock, or basketball hoop! One of the cons when going to bed the first night was that the bunk beds upstairs were not made. Nothing like being exhausted after a day of traveling, only to find your kids’ beds not made. It would also be nice to have more food and pantry items available so you aren’t left to run to the store for the small things. Overall, this property was well taken care of and clean (other than the small cockroach we found behind a lamp) and we had a great time.

Thank you for your review. We are glad you enjoyed yourself at the house. We will let the homeowner know of the suggestions you listed. Unfortunately, the linen company does not make the bunk beds but we do let our guests know in the rental agreement. Please call us when planning your next stay in Galveston, we do offer a repeat guest discount.

Great house!

We stayed celebrating a family member's birthday. The house was perfect us. Just a short walk to the beach, but even that was not bad, even carrying our beach "gear". We would rent again!

Great location for beach

We really enjoyed our stay in the Crab Claw on Pirates Beach. The walk to the beach is about 1 minute! So close!. The view of the ocean was great and we enjoyed the August full moon shining beautiful over the Gulf waters. The house was clean and convenient to all. Very comfortable!
