The house was awesome and was as advertised. Great location if you are looking to enjoy Galveston proper. Minutes to the stran and the seawall. My family and I had a wonderful time and we would stay again.

10.0 / 10.0
First of all, the house is very attractive, with high ceilings, large bedrooms, and a very well equipped kitchen that is well provisioned. The location is nice. Two of our favorite breakfast places are within 2 blocks of the property. Historic downtown is less than a 20 minute walk away, as is Seawall Blvd and the gulf. Can't ask for more. Also, the price wasquite reasonable. minubrrestaurants w

This home had a severe issue with the upstairs shower. It was noticeable throughout the house that it had been an ongoing issue. We went the entire weekend with one small bathroom for a group of girls.

This property canceled us 2 hours before check in. I was already on the island. Host never answered back. Had to book another house for our stay.
6.0 / 10.0
The place was very nice and the location was perfect. It was close to everything we needed from the beach to the grocery store. Only complaint is there are no blinds or full curtains on most of the windows so it’s impossible to sleep in and the house doesn’t cool during the day while it’s hot out. Also, it rained quite a bit while we were there causing us to stay inside on some days. Only having a tv in the living room and downstairs bedroom was unfortunate.
