Overall clean and well kept house; owners was thoughtful Left cookies for us. The house is abit older. Lots of nice personal touches and kids toys and beach stuff to use. We didn’t use any because the weather was cold and we were only there for 1 short night. The washing machine and dryer was nice to have.

Appreciated that they left cookies and water for us in the cottage. Had everything we needed. Stocked with must haves for basic living. Loved the comfortable bed and ceiling fan was appreciated! Not too far from the beach and short Uber to cruise terminal. Enjoyed our stay and will be back at the end of the cruise.
Perfect location, right across from wonderful museum. Loved that there was reading material as well as beach chairs and toys so we didn't have to pack them.
This was a wonderful home to stay In during our vacation. We felt so cozy, and at home here. The location was perfect and so close to everything. I look forward to staying here again.
This is a cute little duplex. Diane pays close attention to detail down to the labels indicating which light switch turns on which lights. Its centrally located and easy to find and get around the island.
Great host communication, easy check in, and great location! Owner was kind enough to extend our check out by 2 hours since our ship was boarding late. Will stay here again!

We came to Galveston to go to the Christmas Wish show at Moody gardens and festival of lights for my mom's 82nd birthday! The house was the perfect size for the three of us.. and very clean.
