My family's stay could've been better but it was plagued with an infestation of roaches. We had to keep all food, cups, plates and utensils in the refrigerator to ensure bugs didnt crawl over it or into everything. They were everywhere and it was a hinderance to my family and myself having a great time. I contacted the owners about my concerns, seeking resolution. No resolution has been provided.

Galveston Beach vacation home was perfect!
Wonderful Beach home just west of Galveston, Texas. Plenty of room for our family, comfortable furnishings, plenty of cooking utensils, pots and pans. Close to the beach and nice and quiet during the evening. Highly recommend this property for your Beach vacation.

We recently stayed at this property in Galveston and wanted to share an honest and constructive review for both the property manager and future guests.First, on a positive note, the home has great potential. The exterior is very nice, the neighborhood is beautiful and quiet, and the location is a big plus—being within walking distance to the beach made our stay much more convenient and enjoyable.However, there are several areas that need immediate attention, particularly regarding cleanliness and maintenance. Unfortunately, the overall condition of the interior did not meet expectations.Cleanliness was a major concern. Upon arrival, there was trash left throughout the house, hair on the counters, and surfaces like cabinets did not appear to have been wiped down. The floors were sticky, there were visible stains on the walls, and there was a noticeable mildew-like odor throughout the home.The carpets, especially on the stairs and upstairs, were heavily stained and appeared very worn and unclean. In addition, we encountered cockroaches in the master bathroom, which was very concerning.There also appears to be mold growing in the HVAC closet inside the home, which is a serious health concern and should be addressed immediately. The mattress in the master bedroom has a large divot in the middle, making it uncomfortable for sleeping.Another small but notable issue: the soap dispensers seem to have been diluted so much that they are essentially just water at this point.

Thank you for your feedback. The housekeeping team assigned to this home has been replaced, and a contractor is addressing concerns, including mold inspection and pest treatment, to ensure the home is in proper condition for future guests. We are also reviewing overall maintenance and comfort items to improve the experience moving forward. We appreciate your input and hope to have the opportunity to host you again for a significantly improved stay.
This is our second time staying at this house. We had a great experience. The house is perfect for our family needs. The distance to the beach is short and easy to access. We recommend the house to others who want a nice place to stay and relax.

Clean 4 bedroom home. Everyone had enough space. We have stayed at this two times. We will probably stay there again. Thank you for the nice place to have a holiday with the family.

Excellent stay near the beach
The house was very spacious. It’s enough room for the perfect family getaway or a weekend with friends. It’s just a short walk to the beach. You can actually see the waves crashing from the balcony. I was happy with how clean the house was and I would definitely stay there again in the future.
My family of 5 adults and two tiny children loved this house. We had plenty of space to spread out. The clean beach was a short walk plus we could see the beach from our porches. One suggestion-the balcony really needs a safety gate.

Hi Charlotte,
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review and share your experience! We’re so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay. Please let us assure you that we value your feedback, and your recommendation about the safety gate have been passed along to the homeowner for consideration. You were the perfect guests, and we look forward to the next time!
This house was great and almost exactly what we expected! The only drawback was the listing said it provided and umbrella and beach chairs which it did not, it wasn't a big deal but had we known we could have been better prepared. The unit was clean, smelled nice, and was as described! We were very happy with the property and felt like it was a great deal for the price.

Beach House needs a little love but Vacasa needs to take a look at housekeeping and maintenance
I like this beach house. I’ve stayed here before but Vacasa’s management of the property is terrible. House was not clean- hair everywhere. Leaky washer. Malfunctioning entry which took a very long time to get resolved. No fun being locked out after hot time on the beach with babies. I really wish I could say it was good but this trip was a disaster. No more Vacasa properties for us!

Our stay
Good location and beach close by.
House was not clean….from cracker crumbs under the sheets to mold on outdoor furniture…and it lacked basic amenities.
Items were not set up as promised either.
