Not to be depressing, but I am fighting stage 4 melanoma, so I FINALLY got to have my DREAM vacation! I selected the Sandpiper Boutique Home and it did not disappoint! The house was as beautiful in person as in the photos and it was immaculate. The kitchen, bathrooms and pool were appointed with everything we could need. The host heated the pool to the perfect temperature before our arrival. There were 6 of us and we were all very comfortable. The pool size was perfect for our small group. We enjoyed visiting on the patio before dinner and then a refreshing dip in the pool later that evening before bed. It is close to the strand and the beach. All of the girls said it was perfect. Also, everyone said ALL the beds were surprisingly comfortable INCLUDING the bunk beds. I slept in the master and I swear it was like sleeping on clouds! I would love stay here again and I if I go to Galveston again with a larger group, I will try to book another VRBO hosted by Carry White! I am sure all the others she owns and manages are just as lovely. Thanks again Carry for providing the perfect place for our Galveston Girls Getaway. ##### Jeannie W.
