This is by far the best place we have ever stayed at. The only issue was that 2 of the rooms were pretty hot maybe issue with the ventilation in there? Other than that the house was super clean and provided everything we needed for our stay.The pool was the best part!!!

Nice little house. Pool is an awesome plus. I do wish it would have had a washer, dryer , and dishwasher. Watch your head when using the bottom lounge area sits really low.

Quiet days in Galveston

This property is pretty much exactly as described. Very quiet neighborhood, basic house setup, pool!, and not a long walk to the beach. We would stay again next time we come to Galveston.

House was Great-Neighbors not so much

The house was great, exactly as pictured. The property manager was also great. The neighbors on the other hand....were rude and obnoxious very invasive and annoying. They came over multiple times uninvited, it was weird.

Not a good experience

When we arrived there were several issues that were never addressed, even though we reported them. Trash cans on pool deck were overflowing with trash and full of ants and still were when we left. When you took a shower raw sewage ran up out of the ground on the left side of the pool. The back part of the house was very warm because 2 bedrooms have no ceiling fans. The lockbox with the door key in it was open when we arrived. And the pool pump was so loud that it sounded like there was a real problem. Will not stay there again.
