About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Upper Carriage House Quiet Upstairs Unit w/Porch 5 min to Beach!

Comfy, quiet upstairs unit with a porch overlooking a lovely, shady garden yet only a 5 minute drive to the beach, dining out, and shopping. Bring your old albums, cd's, or even cassette tapes to enjoy on our combo radio/record/cd/cassette tape player! Sit on the porch with your coffee in the morning or your adult beverage in the evening. There's a little bistro set on the porch if you want to enjoy a meal outside.
After a fun, sunny day at the beach, sit back and relax in the big leather recliner while you enjoy a free movie on Hulu, Netflix, or Disney+. The Upper Carriage House will have you feeling relaxed and right at home as soon as you enter. You'll sleep well in the comfy queen bed behind the pretty french doors.
If your family needs more room, our lower unit, Cozy Cottage, is also listed. https://www.vrbo.com/2856329?unitId=3428366

Cute and Easy
We were looking for a place to stay when we dropped my daughter off at college. This place caught my eye and after I read the reviews I knew we wouldn’t be disappointed. It was cute, clean and comfortable. The communication from Brenda was outstanding and she went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed.

Small and cozy
This is our second time staying here and again we loved it!! My wife, two daughters and I stayed and it was perfect for our little family!! The bed for the adults is so comfortable and there is an air mattress or the couch folds out into a bed for the kids. We will stay again when we come back to Galveston!!

AMAZING STAY
Everything that was advertised was exactly what it is. It was close to the beach, check in was easy, the little extras in the house make a great big difference. Anytime I needed to contact the home owner, she was very quick to response. We told her that we were coming in for our anniversary and we had balloons and roses waiting for us. We will be back.

Comfortable & clean vacation rental
This rental is great - easy parking & access to the unit. Door code was set up upon our arrival so new keys to keep track of, etc. Owner was extremely responsive and even fulfilled our request for beach chairs to borrow for our stay.

No key No code
Waited over an hour to get someone to call us back on how we are supposed to get in the condo. We were given no key or code. Plus it looked like the property was for sale as it had a big lock. We heard from owner after we had booked somewhere else
