Very comfortable
Beach house is very clean comfortable. Could use new dressers in downstairs bedrooms and an actual closet upstairs rather than an extra bed shoved into the closet space. Overall we had a great time and recommend this beach house.

Great house in pirates beach
This is a great state for us, we had friends who flew in from out of the country and met us in Galveston for the week. The beach access is very easy - quick walk. The house is in good shape, and the accommodations were nice

Great for Large Groups
Had a great time here. There’s ample beds and plenty seating. Very close to the beach. Easy walk, and dog friendly which is such a huge perk. Also a Wine Cooler! Only suggestion. If there’s anything specific you want, especially for those planning to cook a lot, rather than it just being a place to sleep, I would recommend bringing those personal items, ie specific knives, tools, hand soap and extra trash bags.
