  • Beautiful Cottage

    5/5

    My second time to stay in two months. This beautiful cottage has become my favorite place to stay in Galveston. Communication with the owner is always quick response and friendly. It is as beautiful inside as the pictures. I can't see myself staying anywhere else if I'm going to be in Galveston.

    Lovely cottage that is close to the beach. The neighborhood is quiet. The cottage has a nice back porch. The owners put it a lot of work on the house and I'm glad they included historical information on the property. It was perfect for our stay.

    This house is so charming and beautiful. We absolutely loved it! We were completely comfortable and enjoyed the spacious rooms and porches. It has the beauty of the old world with all of your modern amenities.

    Everything was easy, from booking our stay, how to navigate the homes guest instructions to being right off the sea wall and close to my favorite Galveston locations. We already booked another stay while still here. As long as this home is available for a rental, it will be my place to stay while on the Island!

    Love it!

    4/5

    The charm of this cottage gave a historical feel of Galveston with a modern day touch. It was beautifully decorated and in a great location for shopping, restaurants, and beach attractions. Guests are required to download an app to lock/unlock the door through their personal mobile phone. There were also some special directions to follow along with using the app which we found challenging. This could be extremely difficult for non-technical or senior-aged renters.
