Great location. Walking distance to the beach. There was five of us that stayed in the house to go on a fishing trip the following day, but we got there kind of late so we’re not able to do much. The house has a decent size pool. Our boss liked the house a lot to look into renting it again for the family. There is a lot of room and a lot of bedrooms.

Wasn’t Bad-Wasn’t spectacular

It’s a great location and has lots of room. For the most part it was fine. We were disappointed that the pool was green and unusable and one of the bathtubs had fleas (I think) in it.

home near the seawall, Galveston

It was nicely remodeled, and had ample space to accommodate both the introverts and extroverts in the group. One thing to note is that there is a gap between the deck and above ground pool that a couple of our kids got their arms stuck in (and toys dropped down into the space). Beware. You'll also need to bring extra towels, b/c they only provide one towel per guest. The AC had trouble keeping up with the demands of the summer heat, so it often got up to 82 degrees in the house. We rolled with it, but if you have elderly people in your group, that could be an issue. Other than that, it was wonderful.
