We had a lovely extended stay at the beach. The views from the deck are fabulous. I loved sitting out there with my coffee. The house was very clean and very well stocked. The hosts were wonderful, available and very welcoming. The beach itself is easily accessible and clean. I can see another stay in the future. Thank you Julie!

This is a very comfortable, cozy beach house. Julie is a gracious host who provides lots of extras that made our stay super special! The beach access is very easy. There’s an area with no cars allowed which makes it safe for kids to play on the beach.

Wonderful family beach getaway! The house is right on the beach, very clean, with comfortable beds and a great deck. It was incredibly well stocked with everything we needed, from kitchen essentials to beach chairs and gear. The hosts really thought of everything. We had a fantastic stay and would definitely come back. We especially appreciated our gracious and thoughtful host, who made us feel so welcome. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality!

Julie is an excellent host! The house was one of the best if not the very best stocked rental we’ve ever had the pleasure of staying at. It was perfect for our weekend get away. And would be great for extended stays as well. It has everything you need for a successful beach stay. We will definitely come back when we get a chance to visit the island again. Julie - thank you so much for all the kindness. It was very much appreciated!

I wish I could give MORE than 5 stars! Immaculate, well appointed—you will be in want of nothing. The owner, Julie, provided the best service I’ve ever experienced with a VRBO host. She even provided a bottle of wine and went out her way to accommodate us. Really quiet location steps from the beach. They welcome dogs (ours loved the fully fenced in raised deck where they could survey everything around them). We will definitely be back!

Absolutely perfect weekend stay! So many extras in the home that were already provided! Water, soda in the fridge, a bottle of wine and fresh flowers on the table when we walked in. Super easy check in and out. Just steps away from the beach. We will definitely try to be back!

Wonderful location basically on the beach and out of the way from the busy part of Galveston, yet still close enough to do everything we wanted. Communication was excellent with our little ac hiccup, which was quickly handled. Super well stocked beach house, we didn't need to pack anything extra at all!My family and I loved our stay and look forward to going back!

Great location right by the beach!

Our family took a beach vacation at this lovely location - the deck was perfect for reading and listening to the waves. Everything was set up nicely for guests with all the house things and beach things you could need. I would chose this property again!
