Excellent location and property

The home is close enough to the beach and local sites to walk to, easy location for deliveries. The home was the perfect size for our group, and exceptionally clean. The owners were immediately accessible by text, everything was perfect for a weekend getaway with no worries! Would definitely stay here again!

Beach-a-rific

We were originally surprised by the unusual layout-like a bathroom with three doors-but it turned out to be a very functional set-up. The dine in kitchen was small and exceedingly well laid out. We did breakfast and lunch in everyday with our family of 5 and it was easy to cook and enjoyable to dine in. The laundry room is really nice. And it's super close to the beach, Pleasure Pier, and a ton of restaurants.

Ave R Front House

We loved the location and setup of the house, however the on-line pictures were very deceiving. There were multiple rooms with holes and damaged walls, the kitchen ceiling was cracked heavily, and the kitchen table was falling apart. The outdoor patio furniture was extremely rusty and one of the chairs cut my wife's leg.

Galveston Comfort

Great location, clean and comfortable. Everything anyone could possibly need for a long weekend with out-of-state friends. This house provided plenty of room for 4 adults and 1 service dog. The fenced yard was great for all of us to spend a little time outside on the private patio. Friendly and safe neighborhood with lots to see and do within walking distance, even for those with mobility limitations. The thoughtful management even provides bikes, wagon and boards for your beach trip 2 blocks away. Would recommend this place with confidence to anyone!

Typical old beach house, reservation mishap

The property was well enough; we had difficulty with the check in process. When I booked on Vrbo, I booked the front house, and all the check in information I received was for the front house. When we arrived, there was a family already inside the front house. I called in to the host, they loooked up my reservation and confirmed it was for the front house and they would have to call me back. They called me back, apologizing profusely and told me this never happens. They asked me if I was fine staying in the back house because it is pretty much the same space. After driving all day and arriving after sundown, I was in no position to argue and it really set the tone. My code wouldn't work on the back house front door, I called in, they reset and it still didnt work. We tried one last time then when that didn't work, they gave me the backup code, which seemed a little sketch to me because it wasn't a personal code. Upon entering the house, it is your typical old beach house, but one concern that is worth looking into, the walkway to get to the back house is overgrown and not the most friendly to luggage. A bit of plant management here would go a long way. I will say it was absolutely wonderful having the host be responsive when we did have this issue arise and do all they could to remedy quickly. I have not had that same experience with Vacasa booking.

Great place

Excellent location, especially if you have teens. It is located across the street from a park with gym, tennis courts, skate park, etc. Also a dog park is located there. In addition, it is a short walk to seawall beaches, pleasure pier, and places to eat. The house had 2 bicycles, and a wagon filled with everything one needs for the beach. Only issues were unmowed grass in front yard which was probably due to recent hurricane and no outside hose to rinse off sand. Other than that, it was a great place to stay and I would stay there again.

Long weekend

Comfortable house with easy 5 minute walk to the beach. Nice activity add-ons especially the haunted tour. We could have used a few more towels since there were 5 of us and some extra pillows and bedding for the fold-out couch. Everything else was great! I would definitely recommend this house for any family.

Amazing Place!

The location is fantastic! In the heart of where everything is happening around the Pleasure Pier. The bed is comfortable. The home is spacious. A full length mirror would be helpful. There is a lack of any closets. Need more hooks in every room. The one place to hang a wet coat or extra wet towel - in the back bedroom. No front door hooks. The hooks in the bathroom are in weird spots. Not intuitive. No hook or place for a hand towel. No ceiling fan and opening the window to vent when raining is not ideal. There is talk of black towels with labeling but none to be found. Very thin walls. Can hear everything happening outside. Even sneezing from back bedroom at night for the house next door. Can see the ground from looking through the floor boards. Seems to be little insulation as the heater turned on frequently. An extra blanket would have been nice to use. We did put 2 bedspreads on us at night. The couch in the living room where the TV is begs for an ottoman to put ones feet up on. The hot water comes very slowly, turn handle all the way to "H" and wait 4-5 min running cold water down the drain waiting for hot. The black lower door lock will turn and lock and unlock itself. I assume its remote but its unnerving the first time it does it. The Alexa has one talking setting level 10 and won't allow her to be turned down. She is so loud she is blowing her own speaker. We would totally stay again! Responsive owners!
