Horrible Scam
Property was not as pictured or described at all. I’m sure it was once a beautiful property but is not anymore. The house roof is falling apart, pool room roof leaks when it rains, so much broken furniture and amenities. Cleanliness was also horrible- we had to purchase cleaning supplies because we had a toddler crawling around. The mop water was black after just one room. We also found rodent feces in two of the beds. We have asked for a refund of some kind to make it right and have not heard back.

Birthday celebration
The house is perfect for large parties with plenty of space for everyone. The kitchen is spacious and the double ovens were great. The house was clean and the beds were comfortable. That said, the house is in need of much attention and repair. Definitely older then what the pictures indicate. The outside maintenence is lacking. The inside smells musty(I brought air freshner and candles because it was mentioned on previous reviews). Also mentioned was a shower curtain that doesn't stay up, that was not addressed either. One of the bathrooms had no water at all on the hot side of the faucet. No bathmats for tile floors. Sliding doors off the tracks and difficult to use. The master bedroom thermostat did not work!But the most frustrating was the communication. We have stayed in many VRBO homes and my brother has one. This communication was Very disappointing. I communicated with the host, as instructed. I had questions and a request. The host responded positively.On the day of our check-in the management company nixed everything. We will only book properties where we deal directly with the owners. Never again with management companies. Hope this helps anyone considering this property!househohouseneeds

Nice and clean place
No problems with property or owners. Easy to find and get in. Was winter but young adults still used the pool, no issues. Plenty of beds to fit amount of people. Spacious and had general supplies available. Would stay again if looking for a place in Galveston. Thanks!!

The space is great for large groups. We loved the size of the great room, kitchen, and bedrooms. I did not like that the bathrooms weren't clean (there was hair in the tub when we arrived), the grounds were unkept, it was difficult for adults to walk up the steep spiral staircase to the loft bedroom, and the furniture was highly worn and hard to get up once you sat down.

Beautiful sunsets
11 people in our group. Exterior not as expected with tiles missing on the front stoop & roof and 1/2 the tiles on the garage roof. It appeared small from outside & the landscaping needs attention. We were happy to see 4 large garbage cans available. IYKYK.Beautiful sunsets and the pool area was well maintained, although sadly not heated.If you've traveled with large groups, having enough towels, plates, silverware, seating... is often an issue. This is NOT one of those properties!Home is older but interior is spacious & clean. All rooms are nice sized. There was a musty smell when we arrived which quickly dissipated once we turned on the AC and opened up the house. 3 full bathrooms! All the bunk beds were full size, great for teens and preteens. Plenty of towels, wash cloths and garbage bags. The kitchen had enough plates, cups, and silverware to accommodate at least 3x our group. Pleasantly surprised to find it well appointed with a large crock pot, blender, microwave that also air fried, ovens, gas stove and everything we needed to cook down to a meat thermometer. Even a cupcake pans! And best of all... there were plenty of bowls WITH lids for storing food throughout the stay. The ice machine wasn't working but had trays. NO long list of chores that make you feel like an employee at check out! Overall 9 only because the outside and rooftop balcony areas need some work but we had a lovely weekend and would visit again.

False Advertising: A Neglected Property We Couldn't Stay In
We rented this home expecting a well-maintained property as shown in the online photos. Upon arrival, we were so dismayed by its condition that we stayed only long enough to book a hotel and leave. When we raised our concerns with the property managers, their response was dismissive.
This review aims to highlight what I believe is a gross misrepresentation of the home. The online photos show lush green grass & palm trees, a pristine gazebo, a white fence, and an inviting pool. What we encountered was vastly different. The property also had a mosquito problem (our children were bitten multiple times) and an overwhelming mildew odor throughout the home.
Here are just some of the concerning issues we documented with photos: Missing roof shingles (at least half on the garage) - several on the house; Roof shingles littering the "viewing deck" (no chairs provided) and throughout the yard; Substantial mildew in the pool; Dirty pool chairs; An air conditioning unit "caked" w dirt - inside and outside; Significantly overgrown landscaping around the pool and front walkway (nothing like the photos); A gazebo-area filled with rubble (literally) and cinder blocks (no picnic table as advertised); a crumbling fence; A front entrance that was dirty, rusted, and in desperate need of paint; Visible bug nests w ant/roach spray in the game room; Mold or mildew in the tub area, dirty grout, and damaged blinds; A dirty back of the house. I hope this review helps others make an informed decision.

Wonderful house
This giant house was so fun! So much room and the kitchen is stocked with everything you could possibly imagine. The host was super responsive and very helpful. Everyone really enjoyed staying. Sunny beach is a super short drive away and you can drive right up to the water. Really clean beach. Loved it. Highly recommend!

Great private getaway!
We loved our stay here. There was so much room to spread out. The kids loved the ping pong table and the pool. We cooked a lot and the kitchen was very well stocked. Great communication with the host. It was way more room than we needed.
