Great/clean property
My family and I enjoyed our stay at this property. It was very clean. The beds were comfortable. I do wish the other two bedrooms had TVs but not a big deal. The neighborhood was quiet but not far from all the activities. The pool/backyard was enjoyable. Easy check-in and checkout process. Communication with property manager was easy and timely!

Backyard Oasis
We had a great stay and really enjoyed the backyard/pool. My only gripe is the electronic keypad to get in and out. The battery died and we were locked out of the house for an hour waiting on maintenance. Other than that and the grill being out of propane it was a great stay.

Beautiful home
Wanted to stay somewhere with a private pool in case my son got tired of the beach. It was definitely more house than we needed, but still great! Prompt response while checking in and finding all the switches, lights, etc. Have already referred the property to family that lives north of Galveston.

Loved the pool, everyone had a blast. The house has all the kitchen items we needed. The house is close to the main entrance of Galveston. We appreciated there were minimal "tasks" to do when checking out.

Stay Here!
This house was amazing! We had plenty of room, it was very clean and well taken care of, and the pool was a life saver after spending the day out in the heat. The house is in a quiet neighborhood and close to all of the fun on Galveston Island. We had very clear, easy instructions on check-in and check-out and could easily get ahold of the property manager.

Wonderful getaway
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I had a wonderful time at this property. Everything was clean and comfortable. I wish I could have taken the bed and pillows home with me. The kids had so much fun in the pool and being close to the boardwalk and beach! If I could wish for anything it would be television’s in all the bedrooms for the kids but that is such a small complaint. I would definitely stay again!

Overall a great stay!!
It was a great weekend stay at the house . Very comfortable and clean . The only issue was that the gas grill ran out of propane and didn’t provide back up propane. I went and bought some and left a full tank so that the next renters won’t have the same issue.

Loved the house but got caught multiple times by the traons 2 times they were stopped on the tracks. Could have used a chair in the master bedroom and mirror in the other rooms. None of these things changed our feelings about the stay

2nd stay at this property
This was our 2nd stay at poolside paradise. The home has everything you need… well equipped kitchen, awesome backyard pool, and comfortable beds. It was extremely clean when we arrived. Property owner communication was great and allowed us to check in early and even texted when the house was ready. The cable tv in the media room did not work and there was no propane for grilling, but I am sure these items will be corrected for the next guest. Regarding tv, property manager offered to look into matter while we were there but we were content with in master bedroom. WiFi does not work in master bedroom but hey you have an awesome pool to swim in! We will consider staying here again!

A very fitting name
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I never grew tired of being at this place. The pool is fabulous and even better than the photos as the owner had updated the outdoor furniture. They moved the large round seat, replaced the cushions and installed an umbrella to shade it. Also, there are lights strung along the entire fence and a new grill. Unfortunately, previous guests didn't clean the grill after using it. It was so dirty that I didn't even use it. The house is very spacious, very well kept and nicely furnished. We cooked alot of our meals and the kitchen had everything we needed. The "theater room " was great. I could take my 2 year old grandson in there to play when he woke up early in the morning and with the doors closed, the others could not hear him. We really enjoyed being away from the hustle and bustle of the seawall, especially since we could walk to the water on the bay side. We saw something different everyday- crabs, birds, dolphins, beautiful sunsets... We also discovered Yanni's Gyros and Kabobs. They have delicious food and are literally only 2 minutes from the house. The seafood restaurants were so busy, we tried a different place- Shrimp and Stuff(downtown-their other location doesn't grill). There was no wait and the food was good. Everyones favorite activity was going on a boat ride. We had a great time at the Rainforest Cafe on the day we had rain. We had a great vacation and appreciate the wonderful host who made sure that everything was just right.

Last minute trip
We booked this property the day before we arrived on a last minute trip. Check in was simple. Property was as depicted in the listing. House is a short drive to the beach. The neighborhood was quiet, no issues. We really enjoyed the pool! The kids liked the media room with the recliners and big TV, they hooked up the xbox at night and had a blast. The beds were super comfortable! We had a small issue with the ceiling fans when we arrived but it was taken care of the next day. The only negatives we had were there was a mouse in the grill outside (we were disappointed because we were looking forward to grilling by the pool but you can't control wildlife) and the blinds in the master bedroom are partially broken/missing. Property manager was notified of both of those issues. Other than that, it was a very nice property and we enjoyed it.

Clean and Fun
This property was wonderful for our family’s week get away! Check in took a little long, as I assume they forgot to send us the check in info. I had to call a couple of times before somebody answered and gave us the code. The pool was a little green upon arriving, but Lynn was very fast to get with the pool service to have it taken care of. The beds are VERY comfortable and the house stays very cool! The only real complaint we had was the water never really got hot. Overall it was a great stay!!
