Cozy, Convenient location, Great Communication

The unit had a very cozy feel to it. It was perfect for two people looking to relax for the weekend. The owners were great at communicating and provided everything one might need for a weekend getaway. The place was well kept and had a lovely courtyard in the back. Conveniently located (just a few blocks away from the historic district) and close to downtown was a plus.

Annual beach getaway

Overall it was great. The house was spacious enough for two, and very clean. The neighborhood was safe to walk to nearby areas. We enjoyed being equally close to the beach and to the Strand. I was not happy that there wasn’t a washing machine (as stated in the listing on Vrbo), and the back patio/garden was not a relaxing area, Also, checking in at 4pm is a bit late for out-of -towners, and checking out by 10am is very early.

Excellent Property!

We were so pleased with the property. It was very clean and everything was provided for. Karlsen was very responsive and everything he told us was spot on. The weather was gorgeous and we found walking to most places was quite easy. The neighborhood was also very quiet and peaceful. I would highly recommend this property.

Perfect spot

The house was perfect, and so charming. The location was excellent to the Strand area, where my family lives. A very easy walk with no issues. The owner had excellent customer service and such a fast response. The whole process was smooth and this certainly will be our spot when we go back in a few months. We had a rental car and never any issues with parking, even at night after being out. Thank you for a great weekend!

Great Location

Wonderful location for walking to shops & restaurants on Post Office & The Strand historic area and waterfront. This rental was very clean & comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked with spices for cooking which was a nice surprise. No problem parking nearby every day in a shady spot on the street. For an older home it must be well insulated because the a/c units kept it perfectly cool. Would definitely stay here again!

Great Respite

The hosts have thought of every detail for home away from home whilst on vaca mode. Very comfortable, great convenience to the Strand in Galveston and quiet walkable neighborhood. I am a foodie- (had meals planned and prepped) therefore, I was planning on grilling, however was disappointed as the grill was not fully functional. We were able to pull it off, just took a little longer. We will definitely be back. We live in Houston and were looking for a spot at the beach and have found it ;-) I work remotely so am planning in returning to work from home/beach for a week this summer. Thank you!!!!

Historic Home near The Strand

This property is as listed, nicely renovated yet full of old charm. There are endless rentals on the island-if you want a luxurious king bed, this is your place. Also 60”+ smartTV. Host was on site, and checked in to make sure we had everything needed. AAA
