Amazing!!!

This is an amazing home! It's got everything you could possibly need, not to mention is beautifully decorated and has luxurious finishes. Our family of 5 had a wonderful time and there was still plenty of room to spare. The owners are also very friendly! We definately plan to stay here again!!

Overall a great experience!

This was a great house with a nice set up. We're outdoor people so the downstairs open bar area was amazing. After beaching all day the outdoor shower was wonderful. We were able to relax downstairs in the evenings, watch the Astros, have some cocktails, eat dinner and fish. Overall, this was an amazing stay and the owners responded to emails very quickly. We would recommend this property to anyone!

Father's Day weekend was awesome!

We have just returned from this home in Sea Isle and really loved it. It was just as described and very clean and comfortable. The deck is great for both morning coffee and evening sunsets. Communication with the owner was really excellent, and we would love to rent this house again. Great location on the canal, an easy walk or short drive to the beach, and a quiet part of the island. Superb!

Fabulous! Great location to the beach and marina! Plus you are on a canal...great place to relax.

I don't know why the last guests wrote they wouldn't stay there again....A friend that had stayed at this property prior and recommended it to me.... we loved it!!! The beach house has a great downstairs outdoor bar (with an ocean breeze) and a wonderful living space that is perfect for a beach vacation. In addition to downstairs, there is an upstairs deck with plenty of sunshine and room for all!

Great Canal home

We had a great stay in this home! The location was great, close to the pier and marina with a very short drive to a quiet beach. The house was large and clean and the layout was perfect with plenty of room for our family of 5 to spread out. The property owner was very communicative and pleasant as well. The downstairs kitchen was great! We turned on the TV inside while cooking and fishing for fun evenings. There are also some boogie boards and a few sand toys and chairs that were a great added bonus! If we return to Galveston we will definitely stay here again!

Sea Isle Waterfront Getaway

Great location and easy to find in Sea Isle. Street is nice and quiet. Communication with owners was great as well. We brought our 24" boat and had no problems with parking our trailer at the house. Kitchen had all the basics to make meals and the grill was perfect for steaks. We enjoyed relaxing in the living room at the end of a long sunny day. Like other reviews stated the pictures definitely don't do the house justice. We really enjoyed hanging outside on the outdoor swing and bar area day and night. You must provide your own shower soap/shampoo/cond, so don't forget to pack that. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and look forward to coming back to Sea Isle!

Communication, Cleanliness, Spacious, Comfortable, and Nice Location.

I don't where to begin about the is property except for it was wonderful. We reserved for the Labor Day Weekend of 2022. Upon arrival the upkeep of the yard and cleanliness of the the lower patio was superb. Once waking into the home the open area layout was marvelous. Very clean, decor was perfect and the Central A/C system along with the ceiling fans made the home feel very cool and cozy. The bedrooms were nice and what is there to say about the beds, my family all said the beds were very comfortable. the view from the upper deck was beautiful. If I was a coffee drinker that would be my morning cup of joe spot. The lower deck bar area was very clean and the outside stove and fridge came in handy as we were able to stock the fridge and cook outdoors without being away from the fun. Also, the TV came in handy while we sat around the bar and watched our beloved Astros team The selection of DVD was nice. A great selection of kids, young teen and romance comedies. Though not classics, was more of a "remember this one, oh how about this one". We didn't have to worry about picking a movie that the kids could not watch with us. We took advantage of the DVD as we expected rain showers the entire weekend and when the rain did come we cozied up on the couch and popped in a movie Not the best weekend of fishing but we did catch some. MY daughter reeled in a 4ft Alligator Gar, we snapped a few pics and videos before it broke off. Other than that, a few catfish and croaker. We caught a couple of nice bluecrabs, the old school way, with string, a net and chicken neck. The WestEnd Marina was alive and kicking on Friday night. drinks, dinner, dancing and a little karaoke. In a nutshell it was a fantastic getaway and we look forward to using this property again in the not to distant future. Also, what came in handy was the black binder of instructions on how to go about check out and amenities in the area The only regret was we only stayed for 3 days.

Softball Tournament/Summer vacation

This property exceeded my expectations!!Where do I even start............ This home was beautiful and the pictures on vrbo do not do justice. It was very spacious and had VERY comfortable beds. My family came here for a 10u softball tournament/vacation and my kids wanted to swim in the Canal more than walk to the beach which is maybe 3 minutes from the place. The best part about it is the down stairs kitchen area. It was nice to enjoy the evening cooking on the pit withthe kids and friends and fishing the green lights.

Our stay in Galveston

The property was as advertised. Everything was very clean and organized. All of the amenities were available. Access to the beach was very close. The outdoor shower was very nice and handy. The patio bar was a big hit as we sat around it with our adult beverages and listened to music. The fans and television were a nice touch. The kitchen was big and and very organized. We also used the outdoor grill twice, worked very well. We highly recommend this property, thanks for allowing us to stay here. We look forward to the next stay. John and Sylvia Villanueva We also caught fish and jsut enjoyed the atmosphere.

Best family party house!

House is great! Has EVERYTHING you could possibly need for a fun time...Wonderful deck overlooking canal....fantastic patio with enclosed kitchen & bath facilities...AC works like a charm even with August 90's temperature...plenty of seating, indoor & out. Would happily rent again. Only down side: 2 extra mattresses left standing in twin bed room causing crowding for guests.
