Pleasurable and Peaceful

A family wedding weekend, this location was perfect. Enjoyed walking through neighborhoods.Clean white towels, bed was clean and comfy.Enjoyed the extra space rather than a hotel. Kitchen worked nicely for some food prep. Staying in a pre/hurricane original also was a pleasure.

Beautiful home in a cool neighborhood

This was such a fun property and location. Everything we needed was in the home and thought of. Very clean and accommodating. So many things to do right near the house. We loved riding and walking around to admire the homes. The hosts thought of everything and we especially appreciated the website they created with more information about the property and area. Highly recommend this home for a memorable and special get-a-way to Galveston. We can’t wait to make a return visit!

Cozy, Convenient location, Great Communication

The unit had a very cozy feel to it. It was perfect for two people looking to relax for the weekend. The owners were great at communicating and provided everything one might need for a weekend getaway. The place was well kept and had a lovely courtyard in the back. Conveniently located (just a few blocks away from the historic district) and close to downtown was a plus.

We were so pleased with the property. It was very clean and everything was provided for. Karlsen was very responsive and everything he told us was spot on.

Historic Home near The Strand

This property is as listed, nicely renovated yet full of old charm. There are endless rentals on the island-if you want a luxurious king bed, this is your place. Also 60”+ smartTV. Host was on site, and checked in to make sure we had everything needed. AAA

Great Location

Wonderful location for walking to shops & restaurants on Post Office & The Strand historic area and waterfront. This rental was very clean & comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked with spices for cooking which was a nice surprise. No problem parking nearby every day in a shady spot on the street. For an older home it must be well insulated because the a/c units kept it perfectly cool. Would definitely stay here again!
