Great Beach Front Property
The location was unbeatable, just steps away from the beautiful sandy beach. The views from the deck were breathtaking, especially during sunrise and sunset. The property itself was spacious, clean, and well-appointed with all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The living area was cozy, perfect for relaxing after a day in the sun. We loved having access to nearby attractions, yet the property felt like a private oasis. Overall, this VRBO was the perfect getaway for a beach vacation. I can't wait to return!

Excellent location!
Thank you for having us at your property! We were four adult women who took a girls trip and had a fantastic time. The location was amazing, we loved our morning walks and watching the sunset at night with our glass of wine. We felt like it was a good value for what we got, though the property does need a little bit of updating. We had plenty of fresh linens, but the mattresses left some to be desired. They seem to be old and flimsy unfortunately. We did have a problem with ants but we appreciated the raid that was left under the kitchen sink. The lock was a little wonky trying to get in. The plastic chairs on the patio need to be replaced soon a couple of them were cracked But we did appreciate the cooler to bring down to the beach. Overall, an excellent stay, The property had everything that we needed and once again the location. We loved Galveston Beach.!

Disappointed
The oven was broken, we could not make cookies, bisquits, casserole; or a birthday cake. TVs did not work for half of our booking. The exhast fan over the stove did not work. Nails sticking out of decking. Injured my foor. Lost a week of work. Vrbo and host are not taking it seriously. I will be contacting a lawyer for lost wages and medical bills.

Great Location - but needs a few repairs
Great location - but the code and door lock does not work. Had to use the lock box key after we finally got the code to get in. Front door door knob broken and had not been fixed. I noticed it other reviews. Comes off every time you try and go out. Oven broken, only top heating element works so you can't bake anything. Upstairs area very hot can not sleep up there. Bathroom shower very small and hard for adults to use in the hallway bathroom. Great location justs needs some things fixed. Grill is nasty dirty and did not work.

Poor communication with management company
The house is nice and in a great location but Vacasa the management company was difficult to communicate with. There was a hurricane in Galveston 10 days before our booking and I couldn’t get information about the house condition. Many of the houses in the area were damaged. The house was in pretty good condition when we got there but we were never able to get into the laundry room where all the beach chairs and toys were. The oven did not work and there were damaged chairs on the porch. I spent hours trying to find out what the code was to the lockbox where the key to the laundry room with beach items were. The trash had not been picked up and was overflowing. The management company did not offer any concessions for the inconvenience. I will be reluctant to use a property managed by Vacasa again.

Need some updates
The view and location was great for us! But that was about it. The whole place is outdated and needs repairs. Various items are likely about to break. The front door was falling apart on the bottom. The beds were uncomfortable. The air was on but it was much warmer in certain rooms. A vent was above a bed and was dripping. The kitchen supplies were extremely outdated. It felt dirty inside. The bed and towels felt cheap and uncomfortable. The location on the water was perfect but I would not stay there again.

Very displeased with this stay. We got there on a Monday around lunch AC was not working, got told that afternoon after reaching out for someone to come see AC that we could no longer stay there due to AC unit being broken. Got all unpacked just to repack and drive 6 hours back home in the same day. All of this could have been resolved and not been a waste of our time if the house would have been fully checked prior to renting out to someone.

Short family getaway.
You absolutely cannot beat the location of this property. It was as described and had pretty much everything you need. The only problem we had was the lockbox to where the key for storage for the grill / other amenities (assuming washer and dryer) we could not get unlocked. Other than that, everything was awesome. Will be looking to stay at this property again.

Great Location
This house is in a great location and was exactly what we were looking for. A few nails on the front deck need to be nailed down but it wasn't anything serious. Very short walk to the beach and full view of the ocean from the deck. Also, pretty close to anything you would need in Galveston.

The location was just perfect. We knew from the description it was an older home which was fine with our family. However, it really needs some help! This property needs some love! The kitchen is extremely cluttered and not as clean as it should be. Old unused food in pantry, dirty baking sheets, oven needs cleaning, etc. It needs someone to empty the kitchen and just start over with needed items - not a few coffee pots, tons of the same items causing clutter. There were plenty of beach toys which was great but it was just thrown in a closet and a mess! We did enjoy our family vacation. It is just a shame that this property has the potential to be one of the best around with a little help!

Mold and dirt
Horribly dirty…. Mold in and around refrigerator- mold in the shower- dirt and old food under tables and couch- flooring coming up - tripping hazard- dirt in return air grill- slimy stuff in ice cube trays- tried to get cleaning lady but wasn’t available- spent 2 days talking to management company wasting my vacation time- I cleaned the house myself with cleaning supplies WE bought because there was none available at property- 3 coffee makers there but only 1 worked… it was just bad- just awful….. gorgeous spot on the beach so we were so disappointed in the house.

Fantastic location right on the beach and not far from Galveston. The kitchen is set up with plenty of tableware. The property is very worn. Several housekeeping issues were noted upon arrival, however the management response was quick. The 10 digit door combination was very frustrating and watch your knuckles when opening the door.

It was ok but never again.
The view is amazing. Very easy access to beach. The chairs on the deck great! The beds nice. However, the place was dirty. I have photos. The stairs coming up need work and were bending with each step. And the communication with Vacasa SUCKED!! At one point they told me to call (xxx)xxx-xxxx. That’s it. No numbers, just x’s. I will never rent another vrbo from them again.
