    This property was perfect for us. Our granddaughter had surgery at UTMB which was right down the street. We were so comfortable and we had everything we needed. The property is beautifully decorated as well. Highly recommend this wonderful property and we will definitely return when we are in the area again!

    Came to the cottage for a girls weekend. Everything was good. Only two things to mention, as I'm not sure they're described on the listing. There is no ice machine or ice trays to make ice. We had to step out to get some, which was no huge deal, just something to note. Also, there is a TV in one of the bedrooms, not both. Again, not a huge deal for us, but may be important to some. Overall, this was a great place to stay at a reasonable price. The location is fabulous!

    Grandfather - Father - Grandson on holiday to NASA, Minute Maid Park and Galveston. This home was a welcome retreat in escaping the Heat Wave of 2023 as we came and went on this journey. Thanks to Brian for your availability and support.

    Great location close to restaurants and shops. Quite street. Home worked excellent for our short stay. Awesome upgraded cottage and would stay again. The only small issue was that the beds were really small.

    Me, two Elementary aged sons and hubby stayed here and had a grand time. We wanted an elegant atmosphere to celebrate our Vow Renewal and Ramadan holiday. It was a perfect setting for some nice photos. It was also very close to pleasure pier which is where we wanted to spend some time. The living room was such an inspiring place to relax and the kids having their own TV in their room was also convenient for us. Loved the cottage & will definitely be using some of their decor ideas in our home.
