Great place!!
No complaints here. Had everything we needed for a 3 night stay. It was nice to be able to back down the driveway and bring everything in through the back door. Sitting on the front and back patio was enjoyable. Would definitely stay here again.

GREAT SPOT!
Came to see Galveston for spring break! Loved this place from beginning to end! Extremely clean. Our family of 4 fit perfectly. Decorated adorably (you’ll think you’re on HGTV), very close to the Pleasure Pier and Stewart Beach-which we loved for it’s fluffy sand, and every famous restaurant! We felt safe and relaxed here. The TVs are equipped with every streaming service, just log into your accounts! The backyard is nice and a good size with a seating area. The king bed is so comfortable, & the rooms are a great size. The kids room had 1 full and 1 twin, and gets dark & cozy if your kids need nap time/quiet time. The two bathrooms are big and stunning. Overall the house is amazing, complete with beach chairs, sand toys, and beach towels. We especially loved that the check-out list wasn’t 5 pages long of chores and obligations, they have a cleaning staff that handles mostly everything. Don't hesitate to book this place! (Bring your own coffee grounds, & extra paper goods/trash bags if you’re staying for a few days)
