Beach House vacation

We have rented this property for three consecutive years. We enjoy the close beach access along with the sounds of the waves as we enjoy our beverages on the patio. There is very small crowds due to the fact that we rent it during the week. Planning on our stay again next year.

Right on beach - clean & stocked

This property delivered! Lots of sleeping areas, everyone had a bathroom. Wifi was great. They had plenty of towels, dishes, toilet paper, dish soap... everything we didn't think to bring, so it was perfect. This space was great for a large group looking to hang out on the deck, main area or walk over to beach with path directly to. I will definitely reserve here again!

A perfect getaway in Galveston!We were extremely pleased by our stay at Matt's property. The whole place was very clean and it was great distance from the beach.Any questions or concerns we had Matt was very helpful and prompt on responding. Matt even went an extra mile by allowing us a late check out. We left feeling relaxed and recharged, and we are already talking about when we come back we will be booking with Matt. Don't hesitate-book with Matt. You won't regret it!

Great location just off the beach. That allowed us to make trips back and forth easily when any of the kids needed anything. Lots of bathrooms made cleaning up after a day on the beach a breeze. Had one concern when we first got there that was promptly resolved by the property manager.

Another family vacay

My kids meet up once a year at this lovely beach. Infants, toddlers, and a few adults all have a blast. We walk to get ice cream, play games the host has in their closet and make meals in the wonderfully equipped kitchen. The open floor plan is perfect of this home. We arrived a bit before checkin and the cleaning crew was so pleasant. They even offered to carry our bags and help us unload. Such a refreshing vacay! Thank you for sharing your home with us. And… there are two big fridges !!!

Great location

We have a few minor complaints- no starter trash bags or paper towels. There was also nothing to clean with. I’d have like to have Clorox wipes or something. Or known to bring them. Well stocked kitchen, great communication. Also perfect location and size for us 10. Nothing that would keep us from returning. I know The island has had a rough time. So I’ll chalk it up to Just a few minor things.

Great views with a few issues

The property was plenty big for all of us and it was great that we all each had our own bathroom. The beds were comfortable and the air conditioning worked great upstairs and on the main floor. The view is absolutely amazing and the beach is right there for easy access. The house could definitely use some updating with more modern faucets, ceiling fans, etc. The doors on the bedrooms to the outside also do not have blinds which leaves your room completely open to the beach at night with the light on. All of this was not a big deal and just minor inconveniences but as someone who really looks at reviews prior to booking a house, I figure I would include it all. The big problem we had WAS COCKROACHES! We saw so many of them. I did message the property manager and they did have someone come out and spray on day 5 of our 7 day stay. The last night there, we found one on our bed so I did not get that much sleep as I kept imagining they were crawling on me. Otherwise we saw them mostly in the kitchen area. All in all, I would possibly stay again but would be hesitant because of the cockroaches. That was a big problem for me and if it wasn’t for the fact we saw them on night 2 and spent so much money on the property, I would have moved houses.
