Weekend Getaway
We had a wonderful time. The home was clean and looked just like the photos posted. The sliding glass door needs to be repaired, it was very difficult to open and close. We spent most of our time on the porch. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook as a family. We are planning another trip here in the future.

Overall a nice rental and good location for the price
The house is a cool house with large windows and a large deck overlooking the ocean so the property is in a good location. The condition of everything was just OK - a lot of wear and tear with the main issue being that the sliding door to the deck needs to be fixed/replaced as it's almost unusable as is.The sleeping arrangements are nice and comfortable as is the family/living area.It's priced less than many others with a similar location and you get a little less in the quality of the house and limited kitchen amenities.

Cold AC and great location
The property is pretty run down. The sub floors are soft and the kitchen tiles are broken. The walls are bubbled and appear to be water damaged. However, the location is perfect and had all the amenities we needed. We did have to purchase some supplies like paper towels, oven mitts, and cook wear. The teflon is very scratched and dangerous to cook on. So I recommend bringing your own or purchasing before cooking. We left everything accpet the cook wear.

Good value and ON THE BEACH
Right on the beach, huge deck overlooking ocean. House was clean. If you want a clean no frills house on the beach this is a good one. The yard has way too much garbage blown in from the beach they don’t clean up, but otherwise no complaints.

Perfect house
Loved the location, and closness of the beach. Only problem i had was the sliding door needed fixed but i could still pick it up to open it. Listing said all bedrooms were upstairs. Technically yes because the house is on stilts but when inside, you have 2 bedrooms downstairs and the master upstairs. I had a great time and will rent again.

Great location, run down house.
Location is great, right on the beach, and wonderful views of the gulf. The house is run down. The front door does not stay shut unless it is dead bolted. It does not properly seal so you can see daylight even when the door is locked. The floor has soft spots in it and feels like it’s going to give away when you step on them. In general, the house needs some Maintenance and repair.

Location, location, location
Overall, location was the best thing going for this property. It is very dated. It needs some serious structural attention. The perimeter walls and floors are severely water damaged and spongy, to the point that the entire house sways anytime someone walked on the stairs or the wind gusted. The smell of mildew/mold was pretty extreme. If you have mold allergies, I would recommend staying somewhere else. However, the beachfront location is really nice, and the large deck outside was great as well. The public access road right next to the house is pretty busy, so watch your kids and pets if you are outside. Also had 3 rattlesnakes in the yards, so be aware.

Good home-horrible bed.
The house and location are really nice but the master bed is shameful. It’s got a deep cavern down the center of it that unusable. We had to sleep in bedroom #2, just so we wouldn’t both be trapped in the sinkhole. 2 earlier reviews mention the master bed to which the property management company replied “the owner has replaced furniture” but they left the junk mattress behind. So that isn’t an accurate statement. I haven’t seen a bed look this bad in fifty years. Also, there’s fence down and all the locals go zipping back and forth to the beach-thru the property driveway.

some things missing
Good location. A few things to improve: 1. Not timely feedback on questions. Listing says there is a grill, the manager said there was not so we did not bring charcoal (there is a nonfunctional one there). 2. Listing shows a lounge chair, but it wasn't there. 3. The front storm window cover wouldn't open and blocked the view of the ocean. Manager didn't reply when I texted/emailed. 4. Front door should have had instructions on how to lock. 5. They use a service which wasn't very timely with answers.

As Long As You Know What to Expect...
We have stayed in many rentals and our expectations might be a little high on what the average property provides but we were somewhat disappointed in this one. The biggest complaint is that this house is located on the small public beach access along the private beaches of sea isle. The only access to the beach is this busy public road. I think we wouldnt have been as perturbed if this had been disclosed in the description. Every afternoon the same group of people would arrive for their daily get together. Not to mention the traffic going by the house and the only path to the beach where our kids could not safely walk back by themselves. Add to this the lack of towels. The house sleeps 10 but we only had 6 bath towels (no beach towels and only 1 kitchen towel). Also most homes have basic supplies like salt and pepper, sugar, spices, leftover necessities but this one does not. Just be prepared to pack EVERYTHING you think you need because this rental is bare bones. It also needs some maintaince and attention: master shower doesnt close so water gets on the floor, outlet exposed in master, deck boards loose, only 2 butter knives and poorly stocked kitchen etc.). As long as you are aware of all this and are ok with it then this would be a sufficient rental.

Wouldnt recommend
The good: the location is a front row house right in the water with an incredible view. Its dog friendly It was very well-stocked with plenty of linens and soaps- basically everything we needed except trash bags. The inside of the house has a nice open layout for the common areas and private bedrooms The bad: like another review said, the sand is way too deep in front of the driveway that you cannot park in the driveway. We had to park off to the side of the public access road. I did not feel my car was very secure this way. I attenpted to contact the management company twice with no response. The upstairs toilet did not flush. The house has not been kept up and taken care of the way one would expect. The upstairs closet door literally fell on me. Overall, the parking situation, upstairs toilet and lack of communication from the management company,are the reasons I wouldnt stay there again.

Great location perfect spot
Place stayed cool despite baking in the sun all day. Access to the beach was private and very nice. We ate inside and outside on the picnic table. This was a perfect spot with gorgeous views, great beds, nice sheets and plenty of kitchen gadgets and cookware for everything. We made all our meals while there and it was perfect. The house is now blue though!

Nice stay
This house is very nice and right on the beach. Property contact was nice and responsive. One big problem: there is no access other than driving through the deep sand of the public access. You WILL get stuck! We had to drive through the space under the house next door and hoped no one would show up there during our stay.

Beach Vaca
We had a great week staying in this oceanfront view home. We stayed just a couple of weeks after a hurricane had come through so we did encounter a couple of problems, but the management team was really great in resolving all the issues immediately! This home was perfect, quiet location, on the beach, and not far from all the activities on Galveston!

Beautiful view
When we first got there it was about a week after they had a Hurricane. So when we got there the driveway was built up with sand and we spun getting in. Got the key and there was sand build up on the floors. The WiFi didn’t work so we had no tv till the day before we left. We couldn’t use the outside shower because of the sand and trash cans was filled with sand in front of it. I did talk to the woman over the house and she got confused and said she thought I had canceled my trip. But it was someone else at another house that canceled. She did offer to make us a care package but I told her there was no need to do that. The beach was beautiful and you can find so many beautiful shells. But I will say I highly recommend you take bug repellent because the mosquitoes outside are vicious. But I would definitely stay here again. We loved it.
