Seaside Serenity is by far the best house I’ve stayed in for the Lonestar Motorcycle Rally over the years. It was completely furnished with everything we needed. Well maintained and spotlessly clean. New appliances including coffee makers and an ice machine. Well stocked coffee, shampoos, ample supply of towels and elegantly decorated. Great view of the ocean from the deck and plenty of chairs. The host was very friendly and responded to any questions and requests.

Beautiful Beach House

This beach house is one of the nicest we've stayed in. They have gone to great lengths of thinking about every detail. It is beautifully decorated, close to the beach and they provide so many extras. The only thing we wish it had was washer/dryer acces. Everything else was perfect. We would definitely stay again.

Fantastic time!

This is the 2nd time we have stayed at this property we will keep returning, it’s completely comfortable, it has awesome access to the beach. But really it’s the minor details for me, like the sunscreen and bug away wipes that were played out. They really go all out to ensure it feels like home.

Excellent location in quiet neighborhood

This is our third time staying here- we love the location and ocean view as well as proximity to shopping, Walmart, the Strand, etc. Loved the recent renovations including stove, best VRBO beds we ever had! Missed the washer/dryer though! Might want to tell cleaning company not to water down dish detergent and to add a few more pods/ trash bags- minor suggestions! Also- please consider getting new gas grill- the one u have definitely has seen better days! Overall highly recommend!

Our favorite vrbo in Galveston!

This is a superb rental! Having discovered this wonderful second row home two years ago, my husband and our dog recently returned for several nights. The new owner has updated a few things which made this great property even better: Most appreciated was a secure gate from the deck to the stairs -- we didn't have to worry about our pup! Also, major work has been done taking out the murphy bed, closing in a wall, extending the kitchen area, which makes better use of the space. We did contact Raye briefly regarding an issue with the microwave, and she was so responsive.Travis, the manager, was on it immediately. Communication with both of them was basically instantaneous and top notch. Just a couple of things we could have used during our stay -- a cutting board, luggage racks, a broiler pan. Also, in the information folder, we could have used a number to call when we lost electricity during a storm. Overall, the home is spectacular. We love the water view from the terrific, large deck (really fun deck chairs), all the windows, and you just can't beat the proximity to the water! Quiet, just the surf sounds, and scent of oleander wafting in. Nice neighbors on this street, too, who live there full time. We highly recommend this home, and will be back!

This was our second time at this beach house, and it was just as great as the first! Plenty of space for our 2 families and all the supplies we needed. Comfortable and clean!

Great location scary deck

Every single thing about this property is as advertised, less than 40 yards to the beach if you walk around the other properties. Great partial view from the back deck. This leads us to the biggest issue with this property by far and the reason it would take this property from a five star rating to a three star. Some of the decking boards are literally disconnected. If you were to step on them, they would shoot up like a rake where they are attached on one side and not the other. The nails and screws in the deck are rusted through and poking out everywhere. You cannot walk on this deck in bare feet . The wood planks are splintering, and when you go to the far right side of the deck you can feel it move. It is legitimately terrifying. The property manager needs to replace this deck immediately. It is not safe and I would not stay here again because of this. Other then that it’s clean and you can tell they are doing a decent job keeping up with the property. The deck is legitimately not safe.

Love, love,love this place!

Cannot say enough good things about this beach house! The location is great( you can see the ocean from the deck, and about a 3 min walk to beach) the house/ decor is perfect! Nice and cozy. We stayed with 4 adults and a 4 year old and it was perfect for us! 5 min drive to great restaurants in Jamaica beach, and about a 8 min drive to Galveston island brewing. We we’re missing a couple of things, messaged them and had them dropped off in a matter of minutes! Great customer service! Only regret we have, is even though they told us about all the fun things in the garage, we didn’t go in until we were packing to leave. So many cool things in there to use!! We already made plans for this to be an annual family getaway! Book this place! You won’t regret it!!
