We spent the majority of the vacation sitting on the front porch/deck which was great being so close to the water. House was spacious and comfortable with adequate utilities and games for entertainment. Beds were comfortable, not one teenager complained! We have stayed both in Galveston and further down in Crystal Beach before, but we definitely enjoyed staying here on the slower more family oriented side of the beach! We tried to go Ocean Grille (which we had enjoyed before), but it was closed. We still recommend going to Tia Juanita’s which occupies to old Ocean Grille building-it was great!

The home was very clean. The host was amazing. The beach view was amazing. You can see the beach and hear the waves from the front porch. Everything is close to the property. We rented a golf cart it was great . We really enjoyed our time at the beach. We plan on coming back every year for Mother’s Day .

House was nice. Great beach front. There was just a tropical storm coming in so the ocean was really rough. Didn't realize that was coming. So that part was disappointing. Was a great getaway with husband, dad, son and granddaughter! Thank you!!

This was a girl trip for 4 - the house is literally right on the beach and in a very quiet area. We spent most of our time on the deck or looking for shells on the beach.Could have used a little more cookware - not a big selection of pots and pans. But other than that - it's a great place and beautiful property.We will be back!

Beware if you’re staying here with small children. There appears to be mold in the home. Almost our entire party was sick within the 3 days/2 nights we stayed there. The bedding hadn’t been washed, there was hair on them from the previous guests, I’m assuming. Some of the white towels were stained but that’s okay because we brought our own towels. There was hardly any water pressure in the showers and the house swayed more than what we’re accustomed to for a beach home. We made the best of it, but there definitely needs to be mold remediation and a deep cleaning done to this place. The location and communication were great!

Overall itwas a plesant stay however the home needs some updates, example the shower had tape holding the floor tub together which looked really bad, also the flooring through out the house was separating Also the walls inside the home needs to be painted.. Like I said the home was nice just looked like it needed some attention from whoever is managing the property.
