My family and I truly enjoyed our stay. Erica made the stay very smooth and comfortable. She even goes the extra mile for her families that stay at her property with personal little gifts. Even though we had bad weather we were able to enjoy our stay with great restaurant recommendations and a variety of board games. I highly recommend staying here on your next vacation.

A Great Time

We had an amazing time! The house is literally so close to everything. Such a cute and cozy house. The host was readily available. She left a beach bucket with goodies in it for my girls and a bottle of wine. The neighbors were so friendly. The only complaint is that one neighbors dog barked a lot when trying to sleep at night.

Great location, cute house

We loved this little house on the Island. It was plenty big enough for us, providing enough beds for even more than we needed, a comfy and inviting living area, big kitchen, and everything we needed. Having a BBQ pit available for our steaks & ribs, gave us a great place to cook our delicious meals. The dishwasher made it nice not having to waste our quality time in front of the sink. Perfect little get-a-way for a family or extended family.

Amazing hosts!

We had an amazing experience with this property. The hosts were very quick to respond to me and they went way above and beyond to accommodate us. The house was incredibly clean, well decorated, and super cozy. They even left sand buckets and bubbles for each of my boys to enjoy, as well as water bottles in the fridge. I am very pleased with our stay and they made our first journey to Galveston a great one!

Super cute and cozy house!

Great little house with tons of character! Host was absolutely fantastic! Yard was fully fenced, which was great for our pup! House was honestly a lot quieter than we were expecting. We stayed in November and had no problems with HVAC - house was really comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend and I would stay here again!

Perfect for Us

Close to everything. Very Clean. Everything you need for a comfortable stay. Fenced yard in front and back perfect for traveling with a small dog. Plenty of room for a small family. May be crowded for a family with a few women as only one full bathroom with the only mirror in the house. But our stay was perfect! Will definitely stay again.

Excellent hosts

Erica was an awesome host. Very easy to communicate with. The house was very nice, very clean, quiet neighborhood. Close to seawall and not far from The Strand. She was there from the beginning to explain everything and also sent everything in writing which I so needed. They were even nice enough to clean out the garage for us to use to store our bikes since we were there for Rally Weekend 2022.

BEAUTIFUL HOME AWAY FROM HOME

My first time booming anything like this and it was amazing! The house was so clean and check in process was smooth. Owners were amazing people and so sweet! They got each kid (1,3,and 10) something for the beach and a bottle of wine for us adults. They even stock some waters in the fridge to get us started. Plenty of towels! THE BEDS ARE INCREDIBLE!!! Everyone really enjoyed our stay. Absolutely will be booking again! EVEN HAD ACCESS TO DISNEY+ and other streaming accounts for when it was time to settle the babies down. LOVE LOVE LOOOOOOOOOOOVED EVERY MOMENT HERE!

This was a wonderful snowbird destination.

Our two friends and my husband and I stayed for January and February in Galveston. This VRBO was perfect!!! It was spotlessly clean; it was beautifully appointed and decorated; it had great gathering places (the kitchen and the living room, and the wonderful fenced-in yards), and then places where we could be private. Everything we needed for our stay was provided. The location of the house was great. It was about halfway between the Seawall and the Strand, so it was convenient for all of the Mardi Gras celebrations. Erica and Hollis were wonderful!! If I texted Erica about a question, she always answered back within a few minutes. We all became quite fond of Erica and Hollis, and Mr. Billy, our neighbor. I absolutely, 100%, recommend this VRBO location.
