Krystie is a great host. She gave us great recommendations around the area and responded quickly to all of our needs. The house is very close to the beach, the pier and the strand. The pool was a nice bonus.

Lots to do at the property, Pool was great. Centrally located. The astro turf in the back yard was a nice touch. Additional fridge to store drinks was also a nice touch. Kitchen was very well stocked. Great place for a family vacation for our family of 6.

Mother’s Day Get Away in Historic Galveston

If you’re looking for a different experience than the West End this is it! The house is minutes from the Strand and the Seawall and was one of the cleanest properties I’ve ever rented. The house is spacious and charming and had ample room for our group of 11. We thoroughly enjoyed the backyard space and would definitely rent again.

Awesome house!

We came up for Mardi Gras weekend and a fishing trip. The house was super cute, well stocked with amenities, and loved having a Roku available. The house is in a great location! We loved hanging out on the back porch. We will definitely come back :)

The photos online are great, however the property does not look well maintained in person. Overall the house was nice however here are the cons of my experience: the pool is much smaller than it looks on the photos. There was hair in the sheets and covers on the downstairs bed. They also did not smell like they had been washed prior to our arrival. There was only a fitted sheet which meant we were very hot under a comforter all night. There’s a large crack in the living room ceiling. I think that should be addressed. Outside overall is nice, but the cushions on the sofas and pillows are in bad shape and need to be replaced. Overall the home was tidy, but not clean. It was very dusty. All the window sills especially. I know this because my allergies flared up within hours of being in the home. Lastly, a roach crawled up into the shower while I was in it from the drain. Overall, I would not likely rent this home again. There are other options that are newer and better maintained in this price range in the area.

About the host

Hosted by Krystle G

Host profile image
I’ve been at Texas Children’s Hospital in pharmacy for over 20 years, and my husband Juan is a Quality Inspector in Oil & Gas. Like many, we love travel, concerts, trying new foods, and exploring cultures. We especially enjoy hosting family gatherings, holidays, and summer BBQs, and organizing family vacations—so we decided to take it up a notch by welcoming others who share the same passion for connection and memorable experiences!

Why they chose this property

What I loved most about our house was the location! Minutes from the historic strand and minutes to the beach! 15 minute walk exactly! Close to all the shops and restaurants.

What makes this property unique

Our home offers plenty of space for everyone, blending modern comfort with its unique, antique Galveston charm. At nearly 100 years old, it has everything you need for a relaxing stay—featuring a heated pool, a spacious backyard, plus fun extras like mini putt-putt and cornhole.
