“This place was exactly what my team needed for the night before an event. We could all hang out together or go to our separate spaces as desired.”

“This house was amazing!!! You will not find better space! Lots of room! Everything was so clean and smelled wonderful! I am ready to stay here again!”

“We enjoyed our stay! The house was large enough to accommodate our family of 14. It was very comfortable for everyone. I only wish that the early check-in charge wasn’t so expensive. Only a few issues with the house, such as a plumbing issue, a few little buggies (it was raining), and uneven floors. Overall the house was very nice and we would definitely stay again.”

“Had a fabulous time !!! The house was absolutely beautiful !!! We loved it so much we didn’t want to leave!!!Really hope to get to stay here again for our next vaca!! ”

“It was a perfect spot to enjoy time with family”

“It is a lovely spacious house everything was very clean it looked exactly like the pictures”

“We had a big family group in need of a large place close to the cruise port - this was the PERFECT place. Beautiful home with huge rooms and plenty of space for our family of 16 to relax and unwind before the cruise wedding we were taking the following day. We didn’t get to enjoy the pool but it was lovely as well. Host was so patient with me during the lock box / key confusion. It was totally operator error but my daughter was able to help. If we ever have a need for another large gathering staycation - this will be the first place I check. Thank you for a fabulous place to sleep for the night!!”

“Good property and location! Had a great time!”

“Beautiful Home, would stay again with family. So open for fun activities and favortie part was the pool’”

“Good property and location! Had a great time!”

“Beautiful Home, would stay again with family. So open for fun activities and favortie part was the pool’”

“My family & I LOVED this house, we already planning to come back for sure. Our host was very responsive, the house was so big & clean. The AC worked perfectly. It was 3 min away from the boardwalk. We loved everything about this house. Thankyou again for letting us stay!”

“Overall is was a great experience. We had 19 people and there was plenty of room for everyone. Hot water was out only issue but we had to let the water heat up.”

“Hicimos un viaje familiar. Es muy cómoda para grupos. La cocina equipada, el área súper tranquila y segura.”

“We had a wonderful family reunion, ages 2-90. Nice that there are two bedrooms downstairs since we had a 90-something and an 80-something. The living spaces were gracious enough for 21 of us to hang out and celebrate. The kids loved the pool.”

“Photos online did little justice for this home, it was amazing and perfect for our family of 21. The rooms were very clean and spacious.”

“We had a large group heading for a cruise, and teens who wanted to watch the Thunder basketball game, and alllll of us were pleased. Comfy beds, room for all to relax with or without people. Room for all to sit and eat. We’d stay here again!”

“We needed a place to hold a bunch of people for 1 night before getting on a cruise and this was the perfect place!”

“It was a beautiful house, very spacious, with lots of bedrooms and bathrooms. Great kitchen and living room for accommodating a large group.”

“We had a great stay at Sam’s place! The space was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. It was the perfect spot for my daughter and her friends to relax and celebrate after prom. The host was communicative and made everything easy. We’d definitely stay again!”

“Beautiful home, very spacious, lots of bedrooms and bathrooms, very clean, perfect for large families or groups. Excellent stay, wonderful experience.”

“Amazing host, location, and home! Had a wonderful time and everything was as advertised. Fun backyard and spacious for a larger group. Highly recommend!”

“:)”

“Nice big house, plenty of room for our large family. We will stay again! The pool was clean as well.”

“I really liked the house. Everyone had their own bathrooms that were spacious and recently remodeled. The large two person shower in the Master was nice. The host was very responsive and friendly.”

“We recently stayed at this property for our children’s wedding and found it to be a very nice place overall. The space was very generous, comfortably accommodating our group, and the beds were especially comfortable, which made for a restful stay. It was perfect for the number of people we had. However, there were a couple of downsides. The flooring is in need of replacement, as we noticed several areas that were soft, cracked, or even missing. Additionally, there was no place to hang clothing, which was a bit inconvenient—perhaps adding at least some hooks would be helpful. Despite these issues, we enjoyed our stay and appreciated the spaciousness and comfort of the home. With a few updates, it would be an even better experience!”

“We had a great stay in Galveston. We had three families here with babies and kids and everyone fit comfortably. House was close to the seawall and so many places!”

“Great place to stay, looks just like the photos”

“We stayed at this StayBeachBox location for one night. The beds were comfortable & the house was large enough to accommodate a big group. We were a large group going on a cruise out of the Galveston port, so the location of the house was super close to get us to the port the next morning. The house is also a very short drive to downtown. Our group’s one issue with the house was the flooring. All of the floors were very soft. As if the laminate boards were just laid over rotten sub-floor. We appreciate the house is old and certainly has charm. But the floor was an issue because you could easily role your ankle if you weren’t walking round super careful anticipating those soft pockets. I noticed a number of other reviewers mentions this issue too. So it’s odd to me this hasn’t been addressed yet.”

“It was just wonderful. There were 12 of us and could have brought more. Delightful home and im a great location. ”

“Check in was good, communication was great(before, during and after). Pictures were what the house was. Perfect experience!”

“We had a short stay in the house prior to our cruise. Overall, we were pleased. The house was clean, we had plenty of towels and it worked for our group. The only negative is that it's an old house and Galveston was going through a cold spell which made it difficult for the furnace to keep up. ”

“The house was spacious and clean.”

“Our small office group stayed at this home for a work trip and it was exactly what we needed. It’s an older home so there will always be little things like squeaky floors, etc but it was clean, cozy, and a great price. We really enjoyed our time there and everything was as it should be. We communicated with the host a few times-they were very responsive and friendly. We would definitely stay there again.”

“The home is very large and can comfortably sleep 22. There were many nice upgrades which made the home feel high-end. The floor in the living room needs some repair but everything else was in good condition. We would definitely stay here again. ”

“We had a great stay at this home. It’s so beautiful on the inside with TONS of space, comfy beds, clean bathrooms and an amazing kitchen/living room area to hang out in. The pool is crystal clear and clean tho we didn’t have time to swim unfortunately. The kids loved the arcade games on the top floor! We would definitely stay here again.”

“We had a great stay at this large Airbnb house, which comfortably accommodated our large group. There was plenty of space for everyone to relax and enjoy. The hosts were communicative and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. However, the house was missing a few small amenities, like a hair dryer and dishwasher pods/detergent, which would have been helpful. Despite these minor issues, we had a pleasant experience and would recommend it for anyone hosting a bigger group.”

“The accommodations were exactly what was needed.”

“We had a wonderful stay with more than enough space for the whole family. A great place to get everyone together just before our cruise.”

“Cute historical house that’s been updated. Rooms are very spacious - plenty of room for our group of 16 to spread out. A morning walk through the neighborhood revealed several historical landmark properties and a park.”

“Had a great stay. The house was way bigger than I thought from the pictures. We had a party of 11 and still had 2 extra rooms with no one in them. Will absolutely be back.”

“We were going on a cruise the next day and we had such a great time at the house. The house was exactly as pictured. It was beautiful! We had more than enough room and our 16 person group did not feel crowded at all! We enjoyed the game room & despite the cold, we also used the pool. Everything was perfect. The host was friendly and accommodating. We have already started planning our next trip to Galveston & will be staying at this house! This is a fantastic home for a large group.”

“This house was perfect for our larger group. Super nice, very comfy beds, great location. I’ve stayed in a lot of Airbnb’s and this was probably the best.”

“If you are looking for your next family get away, look no further. This is it! This big, beautiful home was nice and clean on arrival, with easy check in. We had plenty of room for our large group, and extra space for family fun and games for the Thanksgiving holiday. The host was amazing from beginning to the end! Everyone enjoyed, looking forward to staying again.”

“This is a great place to stay for 3-5 families. The host is very friendly and responsive within minutes. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely refer to our family and friends.”

“The house is in a great location, walkable every where! Huge rooms, great kitchen and outdoor area. Ten of us had a great stay! Fun game room and pool for all to enjoy! Great host! ”

“Great house, convenient location, very clean and beautifully decorated. We will definitely stay again. ”

“The place was perfect for our party of 14! space was beautiful.”

“We loved our quick stay here!”

“Perfect location stocked with everything very spacious ”

“I did not have any complaints with the host. House was sparkling clean. Everything was arranged and house smells good. It has all the amenities needed.”

“Great place to stay with tons of space for large families/groups!”
