This was our fifth stay which says it all. Absolutely the best VRBO experience we have ever had and we will keep coming as long as we can!! This house has everything you can even imagine needing and is particularly perfect if you have little ones. This year we literally packed clothes and groceries and knew we wouldn’t need anything else. We love it here!

We have stayed at Susan’s property for a week each summer for about twenty years and will continue to come back. The house is lovely and updated; the proximity to the beach works well for our grandchildren.

The accommodations provided for children was excellent. We had a 4 year old with us that really enjoyed the children's room, and provided beach toys. The house was perfect for our visit and will rent again in the future.

On our fourth visit to this home in Galveston in the Pirates Beach neighborhood, we were delighted to find everything as warm and welcoming as always. Susan is a great host and easy to communicate with. The short walk to the beach makes it a great stay.

Susan was easy to communicate with, everything was clean and beds were comfortable. We really appreciated having the beach chairs and wagon available in the outdoors storage closet. This made it so easy to haul our items to the beach! One of the best things about this place is how well stocked it is. Kitchen has plenty of supplies, and bathrooms have great quality towels (and beach towels too). Our family enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this beach house!

Close to the Beach was everything we needed to make our trip a memorable experience. One of the best stocked homes we have stayed in. Everything was provided and everything plentiful. The location was perfect, being able to sit on the back deck and watch the ocean waves was very relaxing. Our host met our needs and answered our questions quickly and efficiently. We definitely recommend this property if you are planning on a trip to Galveston Island. You won’t be disappointed.

Nice Beach Home

Our stay was very nice as usual except for the overwhelming mosquito population due to the recent hurricane.
