Family Fun

Review Submitted: September 19, 2011 Date of Stay: September 2011
I would definitely recommend this house. My husband, mother-in-law, twin 3 yr. old daughters and I spent a week in September at Kathy's Kottage and had the best time. The house was even better than expected. Very clean and lots of room. The ocean views are awesome from the balconies. I enjoyed coffee every morning looking out at the ocean. The house is within walking distance to the beach which was very nice. The beach club was great. We are looking forward to coming back soon. Thank you Terry for sharing your wonderful beach house.

Review Submitted: September 13, 2011 Date of Stay: September 2011
This home was very clean, spacious, and not far from the beach and with so may amenities we didn't want to leave. My board and I had an excellent time and want to come back for our retreat next year.

Great Beach Home-away-from-home

Review Submitted: August 16, 2011 Date of Stay: August 2011
This is a sweet house, every bit as nice as the photos. Very clean, well maintained, had everything we needed. Porches are breezy and shaded for most of the day - good views of gulf from porch off living area, and you can see the bayside, too from the top deck off master suite. Short walk to the beach. Beach & gulf water were clean and uncrowded.

The Pointe West Beach Club pools are great too... clean, cool water makes a nice alternative to the surf.

Do stock up with kitchen & bath supplies and food as you are a 30 minute drive from downtown Galveston. Renting a golf cart was well worth the money - we could get to everything in Pointe West on the cart without starting or cooling down the car, and it was fun to drive.

Want a special dinner out? Gaido's in Galveston was top notch.

It was a perfect end-of-summer getaway.

Owner's Response: Thank you for your stay and the great review. Please tell your friends.

I definitely do recommend stopping in town and loading up on necessities. Of course Harrison's Seven Seas Grocery Store is only 8 miles away (10 minutes), but the prices are a little higher. They pretty much have anything you leave behind.

See you next summer!

Perfect Family Beach Getaway!

Review Submitted: July 12, 2011 Date of Stay: July 2011
My family of five, all adults, just vacationed at the lovely Kathy's Kottage at Pointe West Resort last week and it was awesome! Ryson Real Estate made the process very smooth and everything was clean and ready for us upon our arrival. The house is just as nice as pictured, if not nicer and it came with everything we needed for our week of fun. The master bed and bath were just beautiful! The views are lovely from the house and we enjoyed dining outside on the porches/balconies. The beaches were very clean and we enjoyed daily beach walks and had fun in the ocean. We also enjoyed the pools at the resort but we were disappointed that the bar at the pool was closed early and the restaurant there was not open. We were told that they had most of their staff "walk off the job" the day before, so they were short staffed. That was probably the only negative occurence during our stay. I have already recommended this house to others and would definitely return, but next time for a longer stay!

Nice weekend away

Review Submitted: May 31, 2011 Date of Stay: May 2011
We stayed at Kathy's Kottage over Memorial weekend. We loved the house - it was very clean and nice. It was perfect for two families with three young boys.

The negative feedback I have is 1) there were not proper instructions for setting up and connecting to the wireless network and the rental place, Ryson, was not helpful. 2) we rented golf carts which is necessary unless you want to load cars to get to the beach club and/or walk a ways to the beach. The neighbors to the east were not nice about driving the carts around back to park under cover. They stated to stay off there property. if this is an issue, all renters should be informed as it was a very uncomfortable exchange.

Owner's Response: Thanks for the feedback Maria. This is what helps us make the next guest's experience even better.

1) I will get with Ryson on the internet issue and have them put simple connection instructions in plain view.
2) Definitely, golf carts are the way to go in Pointe West, as the resort is huge. Luckily, getting to the beach is a simple walk past 5 houses to the end of the block.
3) Sorry to here about the neighbors. Technically, golf carts are not permitted on the grass anywhere in Pointe West and should be left in the driveway. The Owner's Association sends us emails reminding us of this often. I do not mind guests of Kathy's Kottage parking their carts in the front yard when necessary.
