Beautiful home on the beach. We enjoyed the views and the space. My family was comfortable. The only thing we didn’t get to enjoy was the grill because it was under maintenance. Other than that it was a great experience

A&M Graduation Weekend
Host was great. Very easy to communicate with. Pictures online are not an accurate depiction of what you’re renting. Maybe from years ago? Deck furniture needs a major refresh, and not enough for people to use. Bedding on all the beds was very dated and needs major refresh. Towels offered to shower with were thin and old. Blinds in master don’t work. Broken AC hanging off the back of the house.For what the weekend cost as a whole I was expecting a little more I guess. Neighborhood was very safe. Easy access to the beach. Lots of restaurants close by.

Great Stay!
We just spent 4 days here. It was 8 of us and 2 small dogs. The location is perfect on the east end of the island adjacent to Stewart beach. We arrived an hour early and Anna (property manager) and another person were still there cleaning up. Anna allowed us to bring all our stuff inside while they finished up. She also took time to bring an elderly handicapped person in our group upstairs in the elevator. She was patient with him as she taught him how to properly use the elevator. Anna was extremely responsive the entire rental process. There is one bedroom on the main floor with en suite walk in shower. Three bedrooms are located one floor above. One of them is the master suite with large whirlpool tub and extra large shower. The last bedroom is on top floor by itself. It does not have a door and it has a half bath. It does has its own deck facing the beach. One thing that impressed me was the wireless Internet coverage and speed. They did a great job making sure the entire home is covered. This is extremely important when working while on vacation. Beach access is about 100 yards away via a private walkway. You cannot access the beach straight from the house. The front yard is fenced in and this made it easy to let the dogs out to do their business. The house was stock with all the starter supplies and the kitchen had all you needed to cook and eat. We had a great time and would not hesitate to come back here again!

Smith family vacation 2024
Very little deck furniture so not all eleven adults could enjoy being outside together. Large decks so the small children could play on deck. Lots of stairs from decks and inside so had to purchase baby gates for 18 month old. Beautiful furnishings and very comfortable! Unable to regulate shades in master bedroom and living area. Kitchen very nicely stocked. Did purchase tea pitchers which we left for next guests. Had a fantastic time as Anna came to our rescue with extra beds. Ownership changed from February when we rented until arrival date. So six bedroom changed to five bedroom but with Annas help we made it work and she was an absolute doll meeting our needs. Loved being on east end of Galveston. So close to everything.
