The house was amazing, had everything we needed to enjoy the pool and beach. The house was clean and we enjoyed our stay. Great communication with the host and we will book again.
We had a great time at the Salty Seahorse! It was clean and included everything we needed. Our kids loved the pool and the game room downstairs. There were pool floats, lots of beach toys, and chairs for us to use. The upstairs balcony and the downstairs bar area were great to sit and relax. I loved having the golf cart to drive to the beach! We also drove it around and looked at all of the beautiful houses. I only had to message Tara once with a question and she responded immediately. Jamaica beach was a nice beach to visit. I would definitely stay there again!
Tara was a super attentive/responsive host. The house had everything you need and more. The swimming pool was a nice bonus. We would definitely stay again.
The Salty Seahorse is great! This was our second time to stay here. Tara is an excellent host. The house is perfect. It offers everything needed for a perfect stay. The golf cart is great for going to the side of neighborhood to see gorgeous sunsets. The pool is refreshing after being on the beach all day. This was our second stay and will definitely not be our last. Looking forward to our next beach getaway at the Salty Seahorse.
We had such a great stay! The pool was amazing, the beach was close by, and the golf cart add-on made everything so convenient and fun. One of the best parts was that it was dog friendly, and we never had to worry about our fur baby getting out thanks to the secure gate. Everything was comfortable, relaxing, and perfect for a little getaway. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!
A lovely home in Jamaica Beach with so many great features. The beds were super comfortable and the kitchen was perfect for our family. The pool was lovely and we all enjoyed the rec room.
We very much enjoyed our stay at the Salty Sandhorse. The host was very easy to contact when needed. The home came with every amenity we needed and more. It was a very clean home!
This was our third stay at the Salty Seahorse. We love this house. It has everything you need. The golf cart is perfect for traveling around. The pool is refreshing. The location is great. Just a few blocks from the beach. Tara is an excellent host and checks in to make sure everything is going well. Looking forward to our next stay.
We had an excellent time staying at the Salty Seahorse. It is very clean, the location is perfect and had all the amenities we needed. We look forward to next year! Thank you Tara.

Tara was great at communication we had a couple of issues and Tara handled them well actually came to visit us.I would recommend this property ,it’s very well equipped in the house down to the coffeeHighly recommended expect to stay again
We had an excellent stay with Tara. The property was immaculate and so welcoming - with all the comforts of home. Darling decor, beds were very comfortable, and communication very easy. LOVED the pool and outdoor bar/fire pit area the best! Golf cart to the beach was super convenient (worth the extra $$) and highly recommend the "Shrimp N More" food truck at the end of the street, too, was fresh and delicious (way better than all of the $200 dinners we had). We will definitely be back next year.
The location of the house to the park, pool, bay, and beach were in a very convenient spot. The golf cart helps to keep your vehicle clean and it was fun moving to each location with it. The house is clean and had plenty of supplies. There was plenty to do and not having to travel looking for activities. We enjoyed our quality time together. The host responded quickly and was very helpful. Thank you for that! No complaints. I appreciate booking on short notice in addition to our arriving later than anticipated.

Paid too much for what we got
House was very clean, but it really needs some water pressure in the bathroom. Was really disappointed with the outside furniture and the deck really needs some repair!! We actually went to the hardware store and bought screws for the board that was sticking up as soon as you got to the top landing. We almost tripped on the board. We have stayed at many Vrbo's in the past but this one was a disapointment.
We had a great stay here! Tara is very responsive with any questions. The selection of pool toys and beach items were above our expectations. House is very clean and we all felt safe in this neighborhood.
Highly recommend!!!!
The property was clean, well stocked and in a great neighborhood! The host was so attentive and courteous and very fast to respond if I had a problem. Tara went above and beyond to ensure our stay was a pleasant one. I can't rate her high enough and I'll definitely come back and refer this property to friends and family.
We enjoyed the property, it had everything we needed inside and outside for the beach and pool. Beach toys and chairs were such a wonderful asset. The distance from the house to the beach is convenient, just minutes away. We didn’t take advantage of the golf cart but would encourage it since the drive to the beach is so close.
We had a great stay at the salty seahorse in early May. This home had everything we needed to feel just like home. We brought all our own groceries and when we arrived we had everything we needed to prepare our meals. We picked this stay because of the private pool and it was perfect. The rec room and seating area downstairs are perfect for a backyard vacation. Short drive to public beach entries.
Property is very nice and located in a good neighborhood. Quite at night and very relaxing. Pressure of water could be better in bathroom and I think the expectations for golf carts throughout galveston are kinda strange. They treat them like automobiles. All around, very nice stay. I would definitely stay again.
We loved the house and the pool! Very well decorated and maintained. Not far from the beach, but we honestly spent more time in the back yard swimming in the pool and relaxing. Everything we needed was at the house, so there really wasn't any big reason to leave to grab things we might have forgotten. We definitely plan on renting again next summer! Thanks so much for a great mini-vacation!
This property has everything you would ever need for a great beach getaway. Tara the owner is awesome and easy to communicate with! The house has all the amenities you could think of. The golf cart is a must, so convenient. We will definitely be booking again very soon
