Wish I Was There Now
Review Submitted: June 7, 2011
Date of Stay: May 2011
We stayed at Anne Marie on May 24-30, 2011. The cottage was every bit as charming as described. The rooms are well situated with the master on one side and the other two on the other. The walls are nice and thick so our grandson could take a nap without us having to be quiet in the rest of the house. The web pictures are accurate and give a wonderful detail of the house. It sit's on a pond and the back yard area is wonderful. It sits facing West so in the afternoon and evening the patio and back are in the shade. We grilled at night and sat and drank coffee in the morning while watching the sun come up. It was wonderful!!
The house is very well equipped with everything we needed for cooking, eating, drinking and enjoying all the property has to offer. The beds are very comfortable, bathrooms roomy, and living and dining roomy enough that we didn't trip over each other.
The cross over to the beach is a short walk down the road. We went running and walking every day both on the beach and on the paved trails around the resort. At the far end of the resort we found the cross "under" to the Bay side of the property and also walked over there on the trails. We also went to the Beach Club every day to swim and enjoy the wonderful view from the pool that looks over the Gulf of Mexico. We ate lunch pool side two days and enjoyed a cool drink on some of the afternoons.
On three occasions we went into Galveston. One day shopping at the Strand and eating at Gaido's, one day we went to Moody Gardens, and the last evening before leaving we went to see the Elissa and ate at Fisherman's Wharf. While looking out over the Harbor, dolphins provided our entertainment while we ate. A real memory to keep.
The owner of this property has it together in renting this house. It was so easy and I had all the information needed for a wonderful vacation and stay. We loved being out of the hustle and bustle of the city. I loved going to the beach with my grandson and feeling totaly safe from vehicles coming down the beach. We loved everything about this place and don't have one single complaint about anything. I would recommend this place for couples, family, and friends. In fact I have told many about it already. We are looking forward to another visit here soon. We made memories for a life time.
