DriftAway to the Beach

We absolutely loved our Thanksgiving stay at the house - the place is spacious, clean, and the kitchen is fantastic for preparing meals. The balconies are lovely - we enjoyed watching the diving ducks! The elevator was perfect for my elderly parents - it is so hard to find a place with minimal steps in Galveston, and this fits the bill perfectly. The location is so convenient - near grocery stores, restaurants, and Moody Gardens. I would definitely stay here again, and would recommend to friends.

The home is beautiful with lots of room for visiting. Has everything you need for kitchen..The owner did so many extras to make us feel welcome.We have been making our cousins trip to Galveston for 10 years now and never had better service. Would highly recommend!

End of summer family get together for my four brothers and their families, as well as 90th birthday bash for our dad, and 18th birthday for nephew. The property was perfect for our group we had plenty of space to be together and play games and share meals. The spacious living room had large sofas that included 5 electric recliners. There was also lots of places/decks to be alone and read a book or have a one on one catch up conversation. It was a short, easy, clean walk to the beach. One of our TVs didn’t work and the owner had it replaced within hours. The property manager was very friendly and answered all of our questions quickly. The kitchen had all the supplies needed for our daily meals, and there was enough room for all 12 of us to sit and eat at the same time. Each bathroom had enough toiletries to last the entire stay. No tiny bars of soap. We brought beach towels, but there were plenty on site and the well stocked laundry room made it easy to do a daily load. The biggest benefit was the elevator which enabled my dad to go places with us without tiring out from the stairs. The location was close enough to get into town quickly, but far enough that the beach was not crowded. Everyone from 16-90 had a blast. Highly recommend for groups.

The check in was easy, we were able to be assisted very quickly with problems. The air went out during our trip and was fixed in a timely matter. House exactly how described and host was even better !

Overall the house is wonderful! Two small things: the master bedroom has no shades on the patio doors which means no privacy for anyone sleeping in that room; and there is no pantry in the kitchen which is inconvenient when traveling with a large group.

The beach house was very nice. Great location too. Easy 5 min walk to the beach. Also easy to get back into the main stretch in Galveston from there.Views from the master balcony were great. Plenty of beach accessories as well. Would definitely book again when needing a space for a bigger group.

Four long time friends enjoyed the beautiful Driftway home this weekend. The home is beautifully appointed with comforts of home. It was a wonderful weekend full of friendship and laughter on a gorgeous spring weekend The elevator made getting our groceries and luggage in a breeze.

We had a small group for our Dads celebration of life. The house is absolutely beautiful and meticulous. Communication was excellent and very helpful with fishing guide and golf cart rental. Highly recommend!

This was our 2nd Easter celebration in this house. The house is nothing short of amazing! The house is well stocked with everything you might need . The manager was incredibly responsive and was on hand for any issues during our stay.We highly recommend booking this beach house for your next getaway!

Amazing house, amazing location.. Perfect in every way!

The DriftAway was a perfect find for our family! The home is lovely, and our every need was thought of. The host was very accommodating. We would definitely stay again!

We enjoyed our stay so much! Beautiful neighborhood, easy walk to the beach, and the owners provided so much! We would definitely rent again.

My friends and I stayed during a long weekend. The house is beautiful and very clean. We had all we needed for our stay, the kitchen is very well stocked with state of the art appliances and any utensils or tools you may need. We loved the drinks area with the two wine refrigerators, very nice to have. Definitely a keeper!

My family and I loved our stay at this property. The neighborhood was nice, walking distance to the beach and close to the sea wall. The house is also stocked with pretty much everything you can think of. Not to mention, the owner, Eric, was great from start to finish. My family and I would definitely stay here again.

Enjoyed time with family in this beautiful home

We had a wonderful time at the Drift Away. We appreciated the elevator for my elderly parents and the amenities were wonderful. We will definitely come back to this gem!

Beautiful property, exceptional .

We had a wonderful trip just before school starts with family. The weather was wonderful and the house a delight! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!

We had a great time! The weather was beautiful and the accommodations were very nice

We loved the home and how clean it was. Loved the location.

This is a beautiful home, in a quiet area, with perfect beach access. The views from the house were amazing. Eric is an great host!

We stayed for my daughters dance competition and it fit all of our guests perfectly so it doubled as a family reunion also!

Property was beautiful and clean. The elevator was great for my elderly parents. One of the problems was in the master bedroom, sun is very bright and blinds don't help. Mosquitoes were very bad. Overall a great place for a large group.

Everything was as promised. Great stay. Would book again.

This property was fabulous. It was very well equipped. (except for paper products, only 1 roll of toilet paper in each bathroom. And only one roll of paper towel). We could have used some spray cleaner to clean and wipe counters after meals. Overall it was great! Plenty of beach toys and chairs. If you have a big group, stay here.

This is the fourth reunion we have rented property. This time we required an elevator to the ground floor...all turning 80 this year.... The house was perfect!
