Fantastic home 30 second walk to the water with the cutest furnishings. Fully equipped kitchen (all the gadgets!) and a wonderful large yard with a covered patio with a bar and chairs. Tons of great board games from Cards Against Humanity all the way to Yahtzee, Uno, and even The Office Trivia!Hosts were incredibly responsive, and very accommodating. Highly recommend. Just a few blocks to Pier 6!

Great stay before our cruise

Monica was absolutely wonderful and kept in touch with me the whole stay. We stayed 2 days prior to our cruise. It's only a 30 min drive to cruise terminal and worked great! It was close to a beach area and liquor store and eatery. Beds were comfortable and house was of perfect size for our party of 5. Very clean and cute little outside area. Only suggestion is to have a smaller table outside to be able to play cards.other than that it was perfect and will definitely be back and spread the word on property.

Great location with responsive host

The house itself is great for a larger family and located just about 25 minutes from Space Center. We stayed after a new house cleaner and unfortunately it was less than ideal for cleanliness (floors covered in debris, dirty linens, bathroom had hair on tub, etc). I immediately reached out to the host and Monica was quick to respond and sought to make our stay a positive one. Overall, the house had plenty of seating and places for everyone to sleep. Two full baths was great. Neighborhood was quiet. The location was good if going to Space Center area or Galveston.

Nice place

It was a very cozy home, right next to the ocean. Only downside was the hot water didn't last very long so the Jacuzzi wasn't really an option. Other then that it was well worth it
