About this property

BEAUTIFUL 5-BEDROOM HOUSE WITH HEATED SWIMMING POOL, GAS GRILL, LARGE DECK

Dear potential guests. We thank you for looking at our wonderful home. If you would do us a favor, please read all of the information listed here. We have a list of potential fees you may encounter when booking. Thank you for your time.

As of Nov 2023, the pool is heated to a comfortable 85-90 degrees from November to March.

Totally remodeled 5 bedroom/3 bathrooms, sleeps 12 in beds and 2 on a brand new queen size sofa couch. Three bedrooms are upstairs. 1 King size master on-suite, with cable TV. One bedroom with a queen-size bed with a full bathroom. Also a bedroom with 2 full-size bunk beds with gaming TV. Then downstairs, we have a bedroom with 2 queen beds and another bedroom with a queen-size bed, and a full-size bathroom. The living room has a sectional sofa, with additional chairs for plenty of seating. A 60" Smart HDTV. Great location! Only 4.5 blocks from the seawall and 1 mile from the strand. Beautiful heated pool for relaxing after a day at the beach. Please understand this pool is only 5 feet deep and it is NOT for diving and is heated from November to March to about 85 degrees. There is plenty of deck space that is covered along with a ceiling fan for your comfort. A gas grill for your cooking pleasure and an outdoor table and chairs.

For events, we do not allow more than 20 guests at the home, including the 14 who may stay overnight.

Possible fees each will be charged at the time of booking or just after.
Nightly rental fee
State and City Hotel Taxes of 15% Total. HomeAway collects the taxes
A cleaning fee of $190 for your stay
A non-refundable pet fee of $75 for the first pet, $100 for 2. IF you bring a pet, and we have a 2 pet maximum. Just select the Pet option when booking for 1 pet,
otherwise please let us know and we can invoice you for your other pet.
A VRBO service fee. This is a percentage of your rental fee set by HomeAway
and this fee goes directly to VRBO.
Guests purchase when booking an insurance policy for $79 that covers any damages.

Please note, on certain days the pool company will come into the driveway gate to service the pool. It is usually in the morning about 9 am. Also, housekeeping could show up at 11 am on departure days, especially if another guest is checking that afternoon.

PLEASE clean the grill after each use, this helps the next guest and housekeeping, enjoy the grill when they arrive. Let Richard know if a propane bottle is empty.

To decrease litter on the beach and protect marine life, the City of Galveston has implemented a City Ordinance (No 19-017 Secs 8-27) that states all items left on the beach after sunset will be discarded. The Galveston Park Board strictly enforces the ordinance.

We had the best time, location was great, parking for 3 off road and 1 on road (with ample space). Kitchen equipped with just about anything you need. Pool is heated but didn't get warm enough for us to use. Internet did not work, but we didn't call because we were not on phones that much. The beds were comfy and towels plenty.

Getaway

Very nice home and location. A couple of things though, the ceiling fan in the downstairs 1st bedroom didn't work. We tried remotes, switches....We couldn't get the living room tv to work. The grill is missing all of the knobs and the grill scrubber hardly has any teeth to clean the grill properly. Toilet paper for 10 was just about out. Everything else was great! Thank you, Donna

Annual Family Vacation

This is our third stay at this property and we love it. We love the location, the property manager is responsive, it's clean, the kitchen is well stocked, and it has everything we look for in a home away from home. We always come and stay for a full week; so, that said, we also look for comfortable beds. Unfortunately, the mattresses in the master bedroom and the upstairs bedroom with the queen bed are in dire need of replacement. There's a deep divot in the middle of the mattress in the master bedroom where you roll to the middle; and a divot on the side of the mattress on the queen size bed so that if you sleep on the wall side, you will roll down to the other side. We will definitely return if the mattresses are replaced.

Family get away

The house is great, very nice. Sits on a Main Street, currently, there was construction going on. Rooms were nice and spacious. Some of the mattresses were a bit uncomfortable. The Master shower fell a little short, considering how beautiful and big it is, one showerhead and low water pressure. We had to deal with a lot of knats in the house, it turned out there was a lot of dirty water sitting in the dishwasher. The pool was heated, but it was a little chilly for our liking, plus it was super windy outside. Walking distances to the pleasure pier was nice.

Thanksgiving

Disappointed. There was street construction so getting into property was difficult. No hot water in shower upstairs ( that meant 7 showering downstairs). Toilet upstairs needed to be replaced (that’s what the manager told us) floors were like a fun house uneven and trip hazards. Doors had air leaks and did nothing to quiet the construction noise.

Wonderful Girls Trip

The house was great! Perfect location convenient to the sea wall and the strand. The house was exactly what we needed… everyone had their own room, plenty of bathrooms and space overall. We really enjoyed spending the day in the pool and outdoor seating area! We will keep this one on the list for the future, for sure!

Beautiful Beach House

Great house for my best friend her husband and 3 kids and my husband and our 4 kids. Enough room for all of us. Down the street from the beach but we preferred our time at the house pool. We BBQ one night on the grill while relaxing on the deck. Boys were able to play video games on the Xbox. Our girls had their little slumber party in the front room. Something to do for everyone. We all had a great time. Definitely home away from home vibe with washer, dryer and fully equipped kitchen.
