House was good location to everything we wanted to go visit and see. Only reason it didn’t receive 5 stars was because the cleanliness. House could’ve been checked over for cleanliness but we ended up cleaning up the first day to remove the debris and dead pest on the floor.

Hope you like to sweat !
Communication was weak when trying to tell the customer service line that it was hot as hell in the house. We couldn’t adjust the temp bc they have it locked. Even hotels allow you to adjust temps. Yes it was clean but then when two roaches came from under the door of the closet that was a big “no” from me. If you are staying two nights atleast have enough towels for those two nights. If I wanted to do dishes and laundry I would have stayed at home. Had to go get my own laundry soap bc they offer it but don’t send it. I guess they came in the house while we were gone and left two pods there to wash towels but at that point I was already pissed and had bought my own then had to wait til laundry was done to wash our nasty bodies from being at water park all day. We had to buy fans for us to be able to sleep comfortably bc it never got below 75 in the house . There was absolutely no reason that house should be so hot and us not being able to adjust the temp. Very very disappointing. Oh and for the love of all holly upgrade the freaking beds. It’s like jail cell beds.

Great Stay
The house was very nice and close to the beach. We really liked how big the house was and all of the rooms and beds it had. It was also close to everything we needed. We had a great time.

Nice Home, Quiet Area
Everything went well with exception of air conditioning, when we arrived I went and tried lowering the thermostat and found that it was locked out with a passcode at 72 degrees. I contacted the property manager and he promptly arrived to help us, he could not lower the temp either. He told me he would reach out to the owner and see if they would remotely lower the temp. This did not happen our entire stay, I had to go to Walmart and buy four fans in order to help move air around. Could not run the ceiling fan in our bedroom because it was wobbling so bad, tried different speeds but wobbled on any speed. With this said, I will not be renting this home again due to an owner deciding how cool I need to be.

Galveston Review
We had two families, four adults and five kids between the ages of 7-16. This home was the perfect size and the layout of the rooms worked great for our needs. A bit further from the beach than expected, but not bad. It’s more in a residential area of the island. No grill, but kitchen was stocked with basic pans/utensils if planning to cook.

Comfortable house
House was clean with enough towels, bedsheets and amenities for our group of 9ppl. We liked that it doesn't have a lot of shelves/tables/knickknacks since we had small babies (made it easier to block a space and not worry about them breaking things). A couple of things we found that were dissapointing, but did not affect our stay, were some of the pots & pans were visibly dirty (old food stuck), dryer had a thick layer of lint. Also it would be helpful to have a mop or swifter to be able to clean spills. Lastly, it seems my son left an item in the house. Is there an email or phone # I can call to see if it was found when the house was cleaned?

Little Critter
We were very satisfied with the amount of space and beds in the home. When we arrived the home was very clean and well stocked. We were a little disappointed that the dishwasher did not work because we had 9 people staying, but we made do. Unfortunately we woke one morning to find a critter had gotten into our bagels on the counter and there were mouse droppings left behind throughout the kitchen and dining area. We weren't upset, we know things happen but it should be addressed.

Positive review
It was a nice place to stay, large enough for our family of 9. Close to everything! They supplied laundry soap and other household items. Only complaints are that there were only 2 bath towels in the entire house and the outlets in the front bedroom would not work. Floors were sort of sandy/gritty feeling on bare feet. Nice to have so many options on the TV’s, more than a hotel. 😊 Neighborhood was pretty quiet! We would book again, but would bring our own towels. Lol!

This was a very spacious rental. The beds were okay, and we were just a few minutes away from the seawall and the strand. We look forward to renting this property again in the future.

Decent stay, minor issues
This property adequately suited our weekend needs, however, the a/c would not drop below 75 (which made it a little warm for 4 adults), the dryer was not working, and there was no access to the garage (where we assumed the breakers were located).

I'd book this place again!
We loved the proximity to the beach and how spacious the home felt. The home was very clean. Only reason I did not give 5 stars was because they had an issue with ants getting in the home and it didn't have a big selection of kitchen pots and pans the ones they did have should be replaced soon. Other than that our stay was great. We also left on the day the island had to evacuate and they were very accommodating.
