Breathtaking

This property was hands down gorgeous. There was enough room for everyone. The pool was amazing. The host was amazing. There was a few gnats, but it’s the beach so that was to be expected. Not so much of a pest to ruin our time. The pool is not heated and we didn’t mind at all. It was hot enough outside for us to just dive in. Honestly I miss this place already! I have been singing this property praises to whoever would listen, lol

Everything is bigger in Texas

The house was exactly as pictured. So much room, the views are beautiful! The only negative, we brought our fur babies and the back yard where the pool is, was not completely fenced as we were told. We came the 2nd week of February and were not able to use the pool due to cooler weather. The beds were fantastic! The home was clean and well put together. The garage/gameroom was awesome! Great communication with management. We would recomend Pier 6 and The Landry House for dinner out. Galveston Beach is a short drive. The private pier is pretty scary, but the guys went out daily and took a charter fishing trip as well. We would definitely come back! A good time was had by all!

San Leon Girls/Mom's Trip

We definitely enjoyed our stay at this San Leon home. The pictures and listing were very accurate, and the Owner/Host was very engaged and easy to reach. The property was also great and inviting, whether you are using the awesome pool or sitting in the back yard areas to relax. The only cons from our perspective were the following: the main bath toilet seat was fully cracked in half at the front so it was difficult to sit on, and even though the Owner was very responsive, no maintenance person showed up to replace it; kitchen could use a little TLC just from an aesthetics standpoint; we'd prefer curtains or blinds on all the windows that have none for privacy (especially when you're in an unfamiliar location); the upstairs deck could use chairs instead of one bench as the view is awesome - understand that this could be challenging due to wind/weather, so maybe ones that are permanently anchored would work; the upstairs bathroom door could use a curtain or covers on the glass panels (again for the privacy factor); the fishing pier is definitely rickety, so that is a "do so at your own risk" kind of thing. Aside from those minor items, everything else was lovely and we would absolutely stay here again. Look forward to booking our next trip here!!

Dissatisfied

First of all the property did not look like the pictures. Garden needed manicured, trees needed trimmed, house was not that clean, furniture needed updating, toilet seat was broken, saw some roaches, holds in the front of the house, pool was not clean, at the back door walking to the car there are some parts of the walkway that need repair could cause a bad accident also on the upper deck a board was broken. It was just not what I expected. I was very disappointed with location and look of house. Needs painting.

Would book again but !

First I want to say that over all this is a very nice house with a great pool. There where a few issues with the kitchen that I was not happy with. Cabinets and Drawers where dirty and we where having a family dinner so I used part of my time cleaning them. I also felt I had to wash all the items in the drawers. The kitchen need some repair on drawers that are broke. They have tons of flatware and plates but not much cookware and what is there is broke. I ended up buying a frying pan. The rest of the house is very nice and I had no other issues. Russell the house manager it very responsive to your texts and I was happy with this. The pool was fantastic and the upstairs bed room is beautiful. I wish the upstairs deck had chairs not a large bench. The bay had beautiful sunsets and sunrises. We are not fishing people but the pier looked a little unsafe but I grew up on this bay and you can fish lots of place or off the water front. There is a country park near by you can fish at if that is what you want to do. The back yard needs some maintenance but with the current hot weather in Texas that was not supprising to me. The front yard was great and it was easy to walk our dog. So I would rent this house again or from Beach Box. Hopefully they will get the kitchen fixed so it is a perfect house.
