Enjoyed our 3 night stay at this renovated house in the heart of Galveston. Only 2 blocks from the ocean and close to all the restaurants in town. The plunge pool was an extra bonus that we all enjoyed. Would definitely recommend this house to others. Host was accommodating and checked in on us to make sure everything was ok. Thanks for sharing your home with us.SB -Rowlett, TX

Our family had a wonderful time... The place was just the rigjt size... Had everything we needed in the kitchen, games for the children ... Only suggestion would be for host to note that the pool is very small... Kids had fun in it and a few adults got in, but was tiny...Overall a great place...

Awesome gem!

My wife and I stayed here with our 3 kids (4, 8 and 10). The house had everything we needed. The kids were super happy. The pool, although small was bigger than I thought it would be. All of the boys had fun. The house was very close to the pier.
