    Beautiful home perfect for our girls weekend trip! We loved the house and all the details are fabulous! We had so much fun walking around Galveston during the day then coming back in the evening to relax in the pool. If you are trying to decide on the perfect house look no further this is the one!

    We stayed here for two nights during a relatively cold period mid-February and the heated pool and hot tub were PERFECT!! The house was so inviting, well stocked and almost like sleeping at home! We would love to rent again in the future… if I lived closer, it would definitely be on my short list of places for a quick getaway!

    We planned this weekend for our daughter’s 30th birthday. The house was so inviting. It smelled so good the minute we opened the door. Loved the pool. The beds were absolutely perfect.

    We wanted a quiet place, not located on the seawall, with a pool, and this place was perfect! It was also within walking distance to the strand for us, so that was another plus. House was clean and organized. We could’ve used a bigger pan in the kitchen, but we had enough to make it work. All in all our group really enjoyed our stay. Thank you!!!

    This home has all the elegance, charm, and beauty, and also feels warm and inviting. The backyard and pool were heavenly and kept us all entertained for long hours each. This home is a delight and we hope we have the opportunity to visit again.

    This house was awesome!! Located around the corner from the strand and not far from the beach. The home was very spacious and the backyard vibe is a nice little retreat. Definitely recommend if visiting the island.
