Sea breeze cottage

We enjoyed our stay at Sea Breeze cottage. The location was perfect for our family of 5. It’s close enough to the beach, but away from all the hustle and activity night life can bring.

Great Galveston Getaway

We enjoyed this house. It was a ten minute walk to the beach so we didn’t have to worry about parking. The renovation was nicely done. The host sent timely emails with great details.

Perfect getaway

Absolutely loved this place. It was the perfect location, only took about 5 minutes to get anywhere. The house was so cozy and clean! It was a perfect getaway for for an anniversary trip. The owner was very kind when I messaged with her as well. Will definitely be back!

Very comfortable and welcoming

We came to Galveston TX before embarking on our cruise vacation. Our stay at the Sea Breeze Cottage was awesome, very comfortable and welcoming a very nicely decorated Two bedroom house in Galveston. We came to Galveston a couple of days early and used the time to explore the town or should I say the Island . What a wonderful way to start our vacation, Galveston was so easy to get around shop see the beaches and explore the local history, museums, The Moody mansion, and Katie’s Seafood House restaurant. There was also the Mardi Gras celebration happening at the same time. There was so much to do before boarding the Regal Princess and staying at the Seabreeze Cottage was at the root of an awesome vacation for us. Thank you especially to the owner for opening up their awesome home to us. We very much would love to be able to stay again if we can get back down to Galveston again. Sarah thank you and you house keeping and maintenance staff for a wonderful stay.

Wonderful Beach Girls Trip!!

We stayed here on a girls trip for the weekend and had an absolute blast! I can’t say enough about the Sara’s taste, the house is just gorgeous, her speedy responses to any questions we did have, the cleanliness of the home, the supplies at my fingertips all of it was superb. It is a great location, less than a mile to the seawall and less than a mile to the Strand so all the beach and shopping you want to do is right around you we had so much fun and I would stay here again!

Winter in Galveston for a month

We loved that the property was close to everything. We walked in the neighborhood & felt completely safe, met some neighbors along the way. We enjoyed all the aspects of Galveston and the cottage was well stocked. We cooked a lot since we were here for a month and had everything we needed. We loved the beds & the couch was very comfortable. We would stay again.

Family Get Away Beach Vacation

The property was quaint, clean and exactly what the pictures showed. We had exactly what needed minus access to laundry facilities, that would’ve have been the icing on the cake to allow ease of packing for the trip home. Close access to the main Seawall Blvd of Galveston and closest to all other attractions. I would like to thank our hosts as when a problem arose they were quick to respond and resolve the issue. We would love to stay again when we visit Galveston!!

Wonderful and fun stay!

So stinkin' cute!!! We absolutely LOVED the property and our stay was so nice! Everything was clean and ready to go! It definitely shows that the home is very well taken care of. BEWARE of the hot water in the shower! It is a little tricky and HOLY COW IT IS HOT!!! The beds were super comfortable. I NEED one of those mattresses in my own home! I cannot say enough good things. The location was perfect and quiet, but yet close to everything without being right smack dab in the middle of the craziness. We will highly recommend to others and will definitely be back! Thank you so much!

Put this on your list of places to stay!

We had a great time at this house! We were in town for Mardi Gras, so it was a great location. We were able to uber down to the Strand area easily and even walked back and forth a few times. There was a big parade only a block or two away so we were in a great spot for that as well. The house itself was fantastic! It was very clean and had everything we needed available. They even provided coffee! Really, there is nothing we would've changed about our stay. We'll keep this house on our list of places to stay when we visit Galveston for sure! Thank you!

Cute Beach House

Very clean, well maintained. Loved the living room couch. Im looking into buying one myself. So so comfy! The beds were amazing as well. Came with all the essentials you may need when vacationing away from home. Cute sea, and nautical theme decor.We would stay again.
