Lovely experience
This is a beautiful property. Communicating with the host was very easy. The only issues were with the full bath downstairs where the water from tub drained very slowly and 4 out of 5 trash cans were full when we got there. Still, we set all trash cans out for pick up on Monday when we left. Will definitely recommend to friends.

Time to be still and know that HE is God
Each year 10 of us friends/sisters in Christ put on a retreat for ourselves. All of us are involved in ministry at our different Catholic churches in Houston and Marfa. This is an annual retreat that all of us look forward to...And Jesus makes it happen. Our destination has always been Galveston because of the beach, seagulls and sunrises. Several of us require an elevator which this house offers. The house is in need of some repairs. We rented this same house last year and the hole in the living room wall is still there...We've always had problems with reception on TV... There is only one full bathroom upstairs which can be a problem with 10-12 people staying there.

Quick family/friends getaway
Thoroughly enjoyed our trip. Beach house was exactly what we expected. Walk to the beach was only a few steps. Could see the beach from the house. Owner was very quick to answer any questions we had and kept in communication with us as needed. We will definitely be staying here again.

Family togetherness
Very comfortable with the exception of the front bedroom mattress. We have been doing family time at the beach got 22 years. Staying here the last two years has been the best. As grand parents age , the elevator is a must.

A short stay in Galveston
The home was lovely, but the housekeeping needs attention. There is a refrigerator in the dining room that reeks of fish. I made the mistake of opening the refrigerator door and it was full of fish juice and was so foul smelling. The dishwasher was not clean and only one pod was available to use. Had I known, I could have brought dishwashing supplies. The house is gorgeous though. The host was lovely and talked to me, prior to the visit.

Great Location
We rented this property for Mother’s Day for family for my mother in law. The home is in a very quiet area and has great easy access to the beach. Even my MIL could get to the beach with her walker over the walkway. Marisol was very easy to work with and communication and response time was excellent. We had a few hiccups… the third floor ac was not working when we arrived, but it was corrected the next afternoon. The last night we were there it rained and leaked through the roof in the living room, just reported it upon leaving, the washing machine would not drain when we did a light load of clothes the last morning we were there, and the ice maker did not work… but not a big deal, we just bought several bags of ice and it was great to have the chest freezer. Loved the fact that there are two refrigerators, two ovens, and a chest freezer. Kitchen is well stocked. The elevator was the biggest attraction for us, without it mom could not have made the trip probably. Having the shower downstairs to rinse off prior to coming in is a plus as well. All in all… minor issues.. but we are looking at returning for Thanksgiving.

We stayed with 9 adults , 2 teenagers and one 12 year old. We were able to fit comfortably in the house. The drive to most attractions is about 30 minutes. The walk to the beach is very close and easy! The view from the deck is wonderful ! Had a few hiccups with some appliances.

2nd time at this wonderful beach house for Dickens weekend with family from CA, PA, TN and TX. It was also my 70th birthday. No better place, very well furnished with beautiful views of the beach and easy short walk to the beach! And the elevator is a great asset! Planning on it again next year!

Recommend you build a half bath on 3rd floor.
Beautiful home outside and inside, fully equipped. Loved the kitchen and living area. We had a group of 10 ladies on retreat. This house definitely needs another half bath upstairs because the one full bathroom was built within the walls of one bedroom and not centrally accessible to the second bedroom. Also Lock box for keys was very difficult to open
