Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy
Location and house were great. Loved the design and colors. Personal opinion would be to put blinds or curtains on the doors. I didnt like that people could potentially see me changing clothes. All the TVs were logged into other accounts and we were not able to log out in some cases. One room was missing a remote altogether. Patio furniture was either broken or missing cushions, not a huge deal because we didn't use it much. Overall, we had a good family vacation here and celebrated our youngest sons 13th birthday.

Awesome home! Floor plan fit my family/guests of 10 easily with plenty of space for more. We will be back and probably to this specific property. Beautiful ocean views from two different balconies. Easy access within 100 yards to a private beach. Plenty of covered/garage parking. Our family travels to Galveston every Spring Break. The neighborhood is secure and our stays are always uneventful. We had one issue which was immediately rectified beyond our expectations. Like I said before, we will be back to this home for sure. Thank you for allowing us to have memorable trip.
