First time in Glaveston

A couple of friends decided last minute to visit Galveston. The host was so communicative about check in, it was my first using Vrbo. My friends wanted to check-in early and being able to talk to this host and he replied with all the information. I’ll be booking here agin. The house was so comfy and clean. With so many beds.

Good spot

The property was very comfortable! The walk to the beach is a bit much with younger kids/older adults but it is pretty close, about 10 minutes for our crew. The access to the beach was in a great place, it was never over crowded. The neighborhood lost power for a little while and the host was super responsive. The host was so kind and had great communication and that really made me feel more relaxed, I totally understand why they’re a “super host”!

This was the perfect house for a family vacation including our 3 dogs! We were so happy to find a place that was a close walk to the beach with plenty of space for everyone and our dogs and with no restrictions as we do have larger dogs. The host was great with communications. The few issues we had on our trip they were quick to respond and resolve to make sure we had the best stay.

A nice getaway for the family in a quiet neighborhood and private neighborhood beach with no vehicles allowed on the beach. Short trip into town and the Seawall. Thank-you for a great stay.

Walking distance to beach made a spring break stay with small kids with less than ideal weather, an absolute amazing time! House is very tidy, beds are comfortable. Communication with host was fantastic.

Smell was a little off-putting

When we first got there, the smell of mustiness was outrageous. When I got home on Sunday, I could still smell it on my clothing and blankets. I would suggest air fresheners or something clean in the filters. There was also dead roaches laying in the master bedroom. I would also suggest removing the plastic coverings from the beds. We were very hot and uncomfortable sleeping.
