Pet-Friendly Galveston Home - Walk to Beaches!

Reviews

• Fresh and relaxing

  4/5

  We enjoyed our stay and the location. Sitting on the porch enjoying the ocean was the best. I liked the furnishings and decor. Had to contact the owner for an issue and communication was easy and clear. A few things could have made this a five star review.. the bed was hard and not very comfortable for my taste. The oven and stove wasn’t working so we could only microwave and toast. Having a smart tv on the WiFi so that I could cast shows to, or having more options than air broadcast, would have been nice. And it wasn’t very inviting on the lower level. A bright clean and organized garage would have made a world of difference.

• Location ideal

  3/5

  Negatives-You go to the beach to be outside but the exterior of this house was our biggest disappointment. Grass or weeds too high to walk through and house looked abandoned from the outside. Downstairs was not appealing at all to use as livable space which is where the second bathroom and pull out couch is. Blinds on two windows did not work. Trim on floors were loose and became safety related issues due to tripping risk. Shower light did not work. No dishwasher so dishes are not sanitized. Outreach to owner by email or phone resulted in no response during our time to discuss issues.

  Positives-Home had what we needed to sleep on the second floor only. Would have loved to enjoy more of the deck but exterior was too unappealing and embarrassing compared to neighbors yards that were trimmed. Best part of the house was location to the beach and location to other features of Galveston. I would not stay at this home again for the price I paid. Too many other acceptable options.

• Great Location bad garbage timing

  2/5

  The garbage brought Mice& flies in house, rattlesnakes in garage from dead something? It was very stressful dealing with it all for 4 days.

• Beautiful location

  4/5

  It was a ruff first day for us. The lock box was broke so keys were hidden on the front deck. The blind was broke and hanging sideways. The front door didn't lock. I called the owners and they did send someone out pretty quickly to get it fixed. The house itself is great. The view and availability to the beach was amazing. Location was everything. We ended up having an amazing trip.

• Fun family getaway!

  5/5

  It was a perfect place to stay for a fun family getaway! It was exactly what we were looking for- Very close to the beach, not too many stairs, nice house, decently priced. FYI there is no dishwasher, no cable to watch the tv (or at least we couldn’t figure it out), and the 2nd bathroom is located on the ground floor with the garage and not attached to the house. That being said.. would definitely stay there again! Great for small families. Good for little kids. The floors appeared clean when we arrived but my baby kept getting black knees and feet crawling around.
