Disclaimer: all vacation rentals have issues. I haven’t encountered one that was “perfect” but this one came very close due to location and the ability to host so many people (12 in our case). Some caveats: 1. Professionally managed. I try to avoid these because they lack the personal details you’d expect from renting someone’s home. With this is also late check in (4pm!) and early check out (10am!) - the worst of all possible worlds. For the cost, the times should be standard (3/11). 2. Bring your own cooking and cleaning supplies. Plenty of pots and pans but not much else. Same for bath soaps, paper products etc. 3. Small kitchen for the size of the place. 4. Master king is like sleeping on a box springs. Needs to be replaced. 5. Some of the appliances are outdated. Pro: great living spaces, great entertainment options, comfy couches, fantastic porches with Gulf views, steps from the beach, lots of room in the house, plenty of entertainment options in the house (multiple TVs, streaming etc), close to the main part of Galveston but far enough away to not be in the thick of it and finally, family friendly. Would definitely rent again. The caveats are minor irritants.
