Beautiful vacation home.

A beautiful vacation home. Walking distance to the beach and Pier Carnival as well as shops and restaurants. Lots of things to do on the beach. Beach was not crowded at all. We will definitely stay again.

Quick beach trip

We had a great time in Galveston. The house had a fun layout, and we were all comfortable. It was close to the sea wall so took no time getting there.

Galveston stay

The house was clean, comfortable, and close to walking distance of the beach. We greatly enjoyed our stay. When we found the dryer not working, it was very easy to contact the property manager and let them know.
