This was our fourth year at the Enchanted Sea Star and this visit like all the others, was exceptional. Right on the beach, fantastic ocean views, very quiet neighborhood at least during the times we were there. We appreciated the improvements to the ramp, appliance upgrades, furniture adds and especially appreciated the new grab bar in the bathroom which made the stay more safe and secure for one of our wheelchair bound guests.Thank you for a relaxing week!

Great home and great location right on the beach. Mother's Day weekend celebration could not have been better. Property is wonderful, clean and the host is easy to work with. Rooms are clean, beds comfortable and accommodated our family perfectly. Two fridges was wonderful for all the food and drinks we brought for the 3 day weekend. Kitchen is well stocked with everything you need. A great shaded patio underneath the home with a great breeze and beach toys. We enjoyed it!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!! Everything we were expecting. Beautiful home with everything we needed. The ramp was a must for my disabled husband in a power chair. The home was plenty big for him to get around in. He was able to utilize the under house area with no problems. And the deck was perfect for our pets to enjoy and not to get through the slats. Will definitely stay again!!

This is an older house and they have been slowly remodeling. It is a great location right on the beach with great sunrise views. Our 2 boys 15mo and 2.5y/o had a blast at the beach. It was so convenient to be able to walk right out. Dad set up camp in the morning and mom easily brought the boys over. Then lunch time was a quick walk back to the house. There are several beds so multiple adults could stay.

The view of the beach was beautiful and the deck provided stargazing. It was an amazing spot to view the sunrise as well.The house was vibrant and provided the perfect atmosphere for a family vacation. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything that you could think of ; pots , pans , silverware, big bowls and glassware. Below deck had all the toys for kids as well! Also this house is handicap accessible. Down stairs had Boogie boards, sand buckets and an area to hose off all the sand. There was also a cozy fire pit down stairs to enjoy the cool nights and roast marshmallows! We’re already planning our next stay. This was a very warm and well thought out atmosphere for families.

This house was PERFECT for my mom's 91st bday celebration! It was clean, the weather and the view were spectacular, the beds were comfortable and the living room, dining room and kitchen were very accommodating for both children and adults. There was a good supply of cooking utensils - pans, bowls, cutlery, plates, etc. The very large table in the dining room was a great place for meals, group discussions and games. The ramp made unpacking and packing very manageable. We have rented many houses in Galveston through the years, but this house, by far, is the best one yet! We cannot wait to stay at this house again in the near future.

The location was great, just steps from the beach, and the view was definitely a highlight. The house had plenty of space, and the check-in process was easy. That said, a few things kept it from being a 5-star stay. The cleanliness could have been better (some areas felt overlooked), a few amenities were either outdated or not working as expected, and the house was missing even the most basic essentials — no trash bags, toilet paper, paper towels, dish or hand soap, or wash cloths were provided. It wasn’t a bad stay overall, but with a little more attention to detail (and stocking the basics), it could have been much better.

Best thing about the property is proximity to the beach. The ramp was nice. It really needs a deep cleaning and decluttering. It met all our needs though and after we adjusted we had a great time. We’ve stayed in many Galveston beach front properties and this one definitely needs some upgrades.
