Great little Beach house
Clean and very cute place. it’s older but had a homey feel and was very comfortable. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Relaxed and enjoyed listening to the waves. I have no complaints at all. Owners responded to our question about the internet very quickly. All was good and I’d stay there again.

Amazing Ocean Beach View!
We enjoyed our four day stay with the amazing ocean views including easy quick access just steps away from the beach. We enjoyed sitting on the back porch taking in the scenic views. The sound of the waves crashing on to the beach was heaven.

Mother-Daughter weekend
The home was the perfect size for me and my daughter. We sat on the front porch in the mornings and evenings and watched the waves roll in and out. Close to the city of Galveston to meet up with friends for lunch and stroll The Strand.

It's our 3rd year at this property and always enjoy our stay! There are some updates required that would make the property more appealing. But this place it truly all about location! The views, the sound of the ocean, the beach is right at your doorstep! It's a very peaceful area to just sit back and relax!

Great location, quaint house
House is cute. The location is great. The host was super easy to reach and communication was great. There was an odor that would come and go, I am not sure if it was the house itself, or if it was from the plumbers that were working on something 2 doors down, but the host had maintenance out first thing the next morning to check it out (keep in mind, i was texting the host at 11pm, so the next morning was 100% above and beyond). I am sure the host would fix anything they could if there is a problem. There was a pretty severe storm with high winds and this little house is super sturdy considering it is on stilts and right on the ocean. To the host, i would say thankyou for a lovely stay.

Location is what you’re paying for, not the house.
Location was great. The house is a dump. It’s a shame that the owner has such an ideal location and prime property but doesn’t reinvest into the upkeep of the property.

Great place needs work
Great location right off the beach with great extras like towels cooking ware and other little things just felt like the house could have looked a little nicer on outside and a little nicer lighting like rope lights and the house had a sewer smell at front door and ran on window units so house was pretty warm most of the time but had a great time sitting on the patio and enjoying the ocean breeze

This place is amazing. If you enjoy a smaller beach house this is the one to come too. The patio is pretty big. The inside is cute. It is tiny but we didn’t care. We knew what we were renting and it worked perfectly for us. It’s right on the beach and I got to enjoy the amazing morning sunrise.

Cute little beach house
We had a great time here! Great location next to the beach! Cons: It's a little run down and outdated, tiny shower, terrible walkway, we were awoken by a neighbors air pump ( thin walls ), couldn't access the washer and dryer and the house was 90 degrees when we arrived.. June in the Texas heat.. Took almost 18 hours to cool off and the fridge smelled. Pros : Seems like a safe neighborhood, great location, cute, good for two ppl even though it could technically accommodate more.

Great location!
We absolutely loved the location of this cottage. Breathtaking views, short walk to the beach and away from all the traffic. The cottage itself was the perfect size for our family. We spent most of our time outside, so mostly used it for sleeping. The only issue we ran into was the A/C window units didn’t cool very well and were extremely noisy. If you like a bath sheet size towel, bring your own, as the ones provided are small. The kitchen had all we needed for preparing our meals. The kitchen, bathroom and beds were clean, but the place could use a deep clean of the windows, floorboards, trim and fresh paint. We would definitely stay again, as the location was perfect,

By the sea
The location is it's best feature... you can hear the sea, you can go for walks on the beach with ease etc etc. The owner is very responsive. He answers calls almost immediately and is very attentive. The house REALLY needs to be painted, modernized and taken care of; painted, new electrical outlets put in, better furniture, find some way to let in more lifht. It was not a pleasant place for me...

The view is a 10. Grass was tall and needed cutting. Old ac unit was on the picnic table down stairs so you could not use. Very muddy at the stairs could use some stepping stones. Some wiring hanging down from rafters down stairs. Could use some tlc on the property. Otherwise we had a good time.

Not so much
Arrived late in the day to a dirty home. Waited for cleaners then for cleaners to finish. Gained entry at 8:30pm. Homeowners felt they fulfilled their commitment to us. No apology, no compensation. House is sub standard. Decent beach spot but not much else around. Would not recommend this particular home.
