Every home is fully and professionally cleaned after each guest stay.

We want your stay to be as easy as you do, and the 979 Crew aims to deliver on that commitment. We love our island guests!

Due to our location (Island living is a whole other way of life), service may be unpredictable or spotty, and repair times can be delayed. While we will do everything we can to ensure these items are in good working order before your arrival, please note, these services may not be as consistent as they are in your area.

Amazing location beautiful home

We came for the Izquierda festival with all of our family. We were able to walk to the beach and the festival in 5 minutes. Close to great food, pleasure pier, golf cart rentals etc. The house is beautifully remodeled leaving all of the historic charm. Perfectly equipped for a short stay but close to convenient store for longer needs. We would definitely book again.

Beautiful, spacious house and great location

The house was well designed. The primary suite was on one side of the house, which provided separation, if needed. The other two bedrooms were spacious and had good closet space. Both bathrooms were well designed. The front yard and back yard were connected and fenced in, so Roxy the Dog was able to enjoy the yard. Parking is available in the back yard via the alley. The beach, seawall, Murdoch’s was just a short walk away. We hope to be back next year.

Well stocked and roomy house with fantastic location.

This is the nicest rental we’ve visited in town - normally we have to go out to Pirates Beach or Pointe West for something this nice. All updated, roomy kitchen and bedrooms and all the necessary cookware is there. Fantastic location as well. We’ll look for this one again.

Nice stay - will come back

house layout great as well as closeness to beach. Some noise pollution from dogs in nearby rentals, We stayed at this site previously and knew it would fit our needs - one large bedroom that could fit parents with small 2 yr old twins and 2other bedrooms on other side of house for others. House has nice linens, towels, and kitchen ware.

Mardi Gras

Property was excellent, so comfortable and clean, would go back, but need to talk to neighbors on corner they have a dog they leave out all the time and he barks non stop. Sad for dog and does get on your nerves after a while. But hopefully if that taken care of , the property is a 10+

Family Christmas

This home was perfect for a relaxing Christmas week with our granddaughter, who is at Coast Guard Station Galveston. It is spacious with three bedrooms and two full baths. The home was exactly as advertised and the location is excellent with many restaurants nearby. The kitchen is well equipped and the furniture is comfortable. We had two small dogs so the fenced yard and electric gate were appreciated.
