  • Cute, convenient, clean, & quiet.

    5/5

    Was a perfect spot for the whole family. We walked to 4 different restaurants and a convenient store when we ran out of milk. There was a wagon to get all the stuff down the street to the beach and a pack & play with clean sheets when we arrived. It was comfortable, clean, & quiet. Would definitely stay again.

    4/5

    We enjoyed our stay in Galveston. The house location was perfect for spending time at the beach and easy walking access to good restaurants. The house is furnished very nicely and the layout is very user friendly. The property is very well protected with fence and gates and carport.

    5/5

    We enjoyed our stay at this comfortable home. The owner is responsive and available to answer questions. It was easy to access through the key lock box. They provide nice touches to the property to make sure you have what you need for your stay. It is two blocks from the beach, so very accessible. We walked to the beach and used the wagon to haul our gear.

    5/5

    After a long drive we arrived at the property around 10:30 PM. My GPS gave me a wrong turn and I was unable to find the property. A quick call to owner was answered immediately and she gave me a correction to the directions. Thank you. After that our stay was great. Relaxing, one block from the beach and close to many restaurants. I only wish the master bedroom had been downstairs. Great stay.

  • Cute house, great location, few issues

    3/5

    When we arrived at the house at 3:45, the door lock was dead and still hasn’t been fixed like in other reviews. Texted, waited 15 minutes no answer, called no answer, got another number from VM and called, no answer, call back primary number, lady answers “ugh Hello!” Then hangs up before I can say anything. So I text again, finally about 10 minutes later she answers with where are you? I text her the property address and she responds with the back door lock box code for the key. Yay we finally get in. House is clean and kitchen has everything a person would need to cook. House is small but perfect for two adults and 2-3 kids. Tv in living room and main suite upstairs. None in bunk room. Dishwasher is LOUD so don’t run it before bed. Beds are platform slat style with no box springs, sleeping was rough. They were clean though. Landscaping has fallen into a mess and someone threw old diaper by the back door. we didn’t use the patio as it hasn’t been up kept. House was located in a quiet area and very close to a lot! Nice location. Tell the area is being revamped one abandoned house at a time. Night before check out I sent a text at 7:30 pm asking about where to leave the trash and where to pile the linens we took off the beds as stated in the house rules. There was a trash can outside that had another address spray painted on it and had trash in it and has laying down and full of water. Her response was “I left the trash can outside” no answer about linens. No answer when I told her about the trash can. So we just added trash to that can and left the linens in a pile in each room. Could be a great listing but needs a little help with communication and other items above.

    Manager's Response:

    Hi Dixie, thank you for taking the time to review your stay at the Coral Cottage. After reading your feedback, the homeowner wanted to share the following:
    - While we strive for every guest to have the perfect stay, we realize things can go awry. We apologize for the issue with the door lock. We, too, are frustrated with the lock and are working on resolving it since the batteries need to be replaced very often.
    - We also reached out to the landscape and on-site property guest contact team to ensure clear communication moving forward and the upkeep of the yard.
    Thanks again for sharing your feedback.
