Coastal Galveston Retreat < 1 Mi to Beaches!

Reviews

• Loved the place

  5/5

  We had a great time and loved the rental!! The bathroom was amazing (love the tub), it was great to have a full kitchen, and it was only a few blocks from the beach. The Smart TV and Netflix came in handy when it rained half of the weekend, too :) The owner was super responsive when we had an issue with the keypad lock at midnight one night, too. Would definitely stay here again!

• Peace and quiet in the sun.

  5/5

  I was looking for somewhere warm and quiet to recharge. This certainly filled my needs. The deck gets the sun in the morning. I liked sitting there with my coffee, listening to the blue jays which fill the trees, and watching the neighbourhood cats on patrol. Another great feature is the walk-in monsoon shower. Holiday rentals usually have a tiny plastic booth where I am always bumping something, or a climb in and out of a bath tub. The house is compact but seems big inside. There is a comfortable lounge area, with a good TV. The kitchen/diner has a full dining table, and all the equipment you need to cook with. The internet is fast and reliable. The washer dryer is super efficient. Beds are comfortable.The property is on a quiet residential side street that hardly sees any traffic. The beach is a short walk away and stretches for miles in both directions. Some restaurants in walking distance, others a short drive away with good parking. Two good supermarkets are next to each other a 5 minute drive away. Lots of museums and galleries, possible side trips to State park, Texas City or NASA.Nina responded promptly to a small hitch at check in, and the matter was quickly resolved.A great vacation, I left feeling very relaxed and reenergised. Thanks, Nina. (And thanks to Galveston City for providing free parking and free public lavatories at the beach!)

• We all LOVED this property!

  5/5

  This property was on a cute little street that looks like almost every house has been remodeled. We never felt unsafe and it was very clean. The house is set back and driving over the curb was a little weird at first but I drive a low mustang and had no problems going over it. The house was small but perfect for the 3 of us that stayed there for the weekend. We were surprised at how close we were to everything. Everything we did, whether it was near the beach or near the bay, was less than a 7 minute drive and our trips averaged 5 minutes. It's really in a great location and the price can't be beat. The attention to detail in the house was amazing. The literal only downside was that the mattresses on the beds were not that comfortable but hotel beds usually aren't either and this was cheaper than any hotel and honestly better than any budget hotel ever could be. Me and my friends loved the house and we talked about using this house the next time we come back. We really don't think there is a better property around for the price we paid!
