The home is beautiful and in a great area. We had zero issues checking in, with the property, or checking out.The description and the photos are 100% accurate.
10 / 10Outstanding·Dec 2025
Fast, thorough and consistent communication from the host. House was clean and as advertised. Only feedback I'd have which is the firefighter side in me coming out, but perhaps adding some smoke detectors. But overall, phenomenal stay. Would stay again.
8 / 10Excellent·Dec 2025
We arrived late and the weather was cool so we did not use the pool.
6 / 10Average·Jan 2026
It was ok, few stores in the vicinity, major stores are in downtown Galveston over 15 miles away. No ice maker in the ice box or ice trays. Bare minimum of stuff to make your stay more comfortable. Air conditioning inadequate.I guess you can say it felt cheap.
