“Great place for our large family together for the weekend! Beautiful views from the patios”

“The home was massive and super beautiful. It accommodated my large family before our vacation cruise. We all had a great time. Book here if you love to fish. We caught Redfish, Alligator Gar, Sand Trout, Lady Fish. Just be sure to wear your mosquito repellent. We would love to come back in the future.”

“Beautiful place. Will come back again”

“Our family enjoyed our stay and it accommodated us all well! The place was spacious and sunset view was the perfect ending.”

“Beautiful Bay view. Very quiet and peaceful. No road noise at all! 5mins from Sunny Beach. Great for large families. Very responsive host. Fixed minor issues quickly. Be prepared to bring extra towels, bath/shower stuff if you plan to stay for more than a day.”

“Beautiful home, lots of space for our guests!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an absolutely amazing stay! The house was beautiful, spotless, and even better than the pictures. It was incredibly spacious, making it perfect for our family. Everyone had their own room and bathroom, which gave everyone plenty of privacy, and the downstairs suite was such a nice bonus. The views were breathtaking, especially during sunrise and sunset. We spent so much time relaxing on the porches just taking it all in. If you enjoy fishing, this is the perfect location with easy access nearby. It was also wonderful for our kids and teens they had plenty of space to play, explore, and just enjoy being together. The outdoor areas, fire pit, and multiple decks made it easy to relax and create unforgettable family memories. We truly felt at home from the moment we arrived. We couldn’t have asked for a better vacation home and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful, spacious getaway with incredible views! 🌅🏡🎣”

“We had a great stay! The property looked just like the photos and description and was exactly as advertised—you get exactly what is promised! Everything was comfortable and made for an easy, enjoyable stay. The host was exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and very responsive. A word of advice: do not fail to bring your mosquito repellent! It is not an exaggeration that they are quite aggressive. Aside from that, we had an amazing time! The fishing was great, and the beach was close by, nice, and easy to enjoy. Overall, this was a wonderful getaway for my family, and we made some great memories. We can’t wait to come back and stay again!”

“Perfect floor plan for our 10 person group. The large kitchen and living area was great for us to gather. Will look to stay here again.”

“Great house”

“Thank you again, Jessica! Your home was so warm and welcoming. My family and I enjoyed our time together. It was amazing, I definitely recommend the beautiful home to anyone in search of relaxation, peace and a little fun. Have a blessed day!”

“This home and host exceeded our expectations, which were already very high by the stunning pictures and clear communication. Jessica was very thorough and helpful throughout the booking process and included a helpful guidebook on what to bring/what was included with the home. Check in was a breeze, the home was absolutely gorgeous and clean, and came with many amenities. They also included a map of Galveston which was very helpful. We can’t wait to come back.”

“It was a pleasant experience! We really enjoyed staying this beautiful house! Compared to other adjacent houses, it is a little pricey, but it is worth to spend a bit more. Everyone in our group liked the house!”

“Excellent house , I've stayed at several rentals at Galveston and by far this house has been the best one. Outstanding communication from the host.”

“We had a great time. The property is a great place for R&R. It sits away from the city noise yet close to the shops and attractions. It has a stunning view over look the bay. The Host was very responsive and quickly rectified the issue even it was user error . Couldn’t ask for a better property, location, and price for a family vacation. We would definitely book it again in the future. Thanks for having us. The Tran Family”

“This property was exactly as promised and perfect for a large family gathering. The home is extremely well laid out, with fantastic living spaces that made it easy for everyone to gather comfortably while still having plenty of room for sleeping and getting ready without feeling crowded. The kitchen was large, functional, and ideal for group meals and food prep. The three levels of outdoor space were a huge highlight, and the covered parking for up to seven vehicles made logistics simple for a large group. A gas grill would be a nice addition. The only downside is the remote location has limited nearby restaurant options. That said, it was not an issue as long as people were comfortable driving. Overall, the property is not inexpensive, but it absolutely felt worth the cost for the quality, layout, and experience provided.”

“We had an absolutely amazing stay! This beach home is truly gorgeous; beautifully decorated, spacious, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing experience. The atmosphere was peaceful and welcoming, making it the perfect setting for a very special occasion. We booked this stay as we prepared to send our son off to his senior prom, and it could not have been more perfect. From getting ready to taking photos, every moment felt extra special in such a stunning space. Everything exceeded our expectations, and we are so grateful for the experience. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a beautiful and memorable getaway!”

“"We had a wonderful stay! The space was exactly as described—sparkling clean, well-decorated, and in a perfect location. The host was incredibly responsive and made the check-in process a breeze. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a comfortable and stress-free getaway!" Note: The place is absolutely stunning and the views are amazing.”

“Kitchen was well stocked with utensils, serving dishes, pots/pans of all sorts.”

“1000/10 Positive: It was beautiful will definitely be back”

“Our entire family enjoyed our stay, from ages 3-73 and will definitely look to book again.”

“We needed a quick getaway to reset, and Jessica's place fit the bill. It was peaceful, scenic, and could easily accommodate our family of six. We each were able to have our own space and the ability to hang out together indoors and/or outdoors. The house looked like the listing. The host was super responsive and friendly.”

“Everything was great for our stay. We were there during a cold snap and they were great to bring us extra heaters and check on the heater when we said it wasn't working on one of the floors. They took care of anything right away. Everyone having their own space/bathroom was the biggest plus.”

“We had a wonderful stay here for our cousins weekend! The location was perfect and the place was exactly as described: the home was spacious, comfortable and we felt very secure, which made for a relaxing and fun weekend. Everything was clean and the space easily accommodated our large group. Our Host was excellent with communication and quick to respond to any of our questions. We’d absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it.”

“Jessica’s place was ideal for a big family that wants to stay in Galveston for a night. The house was the perfect distance for us to get to our cruise in time in the morning with no rush. The home was clean, spacious, and comfortable, with plenty of room for everyone to relax. Check in was easy, communication was great, and everything we needed was provided. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to other families traveling through the area. Ricardo Villalobos Tenant, Jan 16, 2026”

“Great communication. Beautiful home that worked perfect for our family. Loved that each bedroom had its own bathroom. Kitchen is supplied very well with everything we needed. Quiet area. Beautiful views and sunset. Clean. Everything as pictured and described. Thank you!”

“Everything was perfect! Loved the house and location!”

“We loved the house, it was exactly how it was described. We had 9 people in our party and there was plenty of space for all of us. The location was perfect and quiet!!! We had a great time. I would 100% stay here again if I come back to Galveston.”

“This house has been added to my list of revisits, loved everything about it! Positive: This house was very nice. We arrived and the instructions to get into the property were clear and concise. The property was very clean from top to bottom and the views were amazing! Negative: If you’re looking to go explore the seawall and its activities, this house is quite a distance from the seawall, but we stayed at the house played games, cooked and still had a great time in beautiful home and surroundings!”

“Clean house”

“This Property was just as it show online very clean nice views, we brought fishing equipment and caught a few fish. Sunrise and Sunset was breathtaking, can’t want until next year. This property is equipped for any stay. I give it a 10”

“This was my 2nd time staying here. Everything was perfect. We had a very comfortable stay.”

“Loved our stay! Such a cozy spot — clean, comfy, and perfect for a family getaway. The views were beautiful and the vibe was super chill. The host is super friendly. Can’t wait to come back!”

“The water front was great for grandkids swimming and fishing, but watch out for jellyfish. We rented kayaks and it was a great place for that. House space was good for family to join us for some meals and beach is very close by. We had 11 and each family had plenty of private space”

“This place is well recommended it’s so peaceful and the house is gorgeous! I recommend this to people who want to have a mini vacation with family or friends!”

“Jessica responded promptly and kindly. I rent about twice a year in the Galveston area and this was my favorite place so far, I will definitely rent this home again.”

“The house was awesome. Bathroom for each bedroom was great. Beautiful view of the bay. All my questions were answered right away. Would have loved more towels, washcloths, and hand towels. But there is a washer and dryer so we did fine. Was clean and decorated nice. We just loved our time here. Thank you.”

“This house is huge and beautiful. We are a group of six women birders, and the bayside location next to Sportsman Road was ideal. The views of the water and the birds were unobstructed and the sunsets were spectacular. The house was clean, well-stocked and very comfortable. The air conditioning worked well on both floors, which made for pleasant sleeping. Everyone commented that their mattresses were comfy, although the comforters, sheets and towels could use an upgrade. We had a little trouble getting the keys out of the lockbox when we first arrived, but no other issues that required any calls to the host. We appreciated that the light switches were labelled so that we didn’t have to maneuver down dark staircases. Speaking of stairs, guests need to be fit to get into the house and to go up and down all the staircases. This house might not be a good fit for anyone who is mobility-impaired. Otherwise, I highly recommend this lovely home to anyone visiting Galveston.”

“Beautiful house and nice view. Sunrise and sunsets were beautiful. Great location. Not too far from restaurants and stores. Neighborhood was peaceful and quiet. Rooms were spacious and beds comfortable. Had a great time and would definitely come back!”

“If you're looking for a place with a beautiful view, yet not right smack in the middle of chaos this is the ideal location. You're close enough to everything, yet far away enough to feel like you're in your own private oasis. We had 12 people in our party ranging from 5-71 years old. The house was perfect for everyone. There was enough space for the kids to play and enough room in the house for everyone to unwind. The kitchen has just about anything you could possibly need to cook or bake. There are plenty of towels, no beach towels though so bring some of those with you. Each twin bed has two pillows and the others have four. There is a built in camping style grill, it works great we were able to grill 11 hamburgers on it at one time. All of the twin beds in the bunk room have their own USB charging outlets and lights. The view from the back deck at sunset is beautiful. My teenage daughter asked me to add that this is a great location for kids, and it's set up perfectly. ”

“Quick access to the beach loved that I do a shower, nice and clean no problems. ”

“The place and the views were beautiful. The amenities, the kitchen pots utensils and everything available was beyond what many other places have. The layout was great. Plenty of room to be private and or social. Loved this place.”

“Jessica was very friendly and my family really enjoyed our stay.”

“Absolutely loved this house. Recommendation automatic lock as opposed to key. The key is hard to turn. Need spare or equal towels to sleeping spaces when maximizing guest counts like we did but we brought extra towels. Loves this place and location!!! Highly recommend”

“We loved our stay here. Everything was just like the pictures and the views could not be beat”

“Great stay and perfect home for our stay.Thank you!”

“A huge thank you Jessica, for hosting my family and I at your serene Bay front property our 3 night stay was an absolute delight. Your home truly felt like a home away from home. it was warm inviting, and equipped with everything we could possibly need. The views was stunning and peaceful calming and the perfect backdrop for a relaxing and fun escape. The house itself was spacious spotless and beautifully designed, the 5 bedrooms in 5.5 bathrooms gave our group plenty of space and privacy, every detail was thoughtfully considered, and everything was extremely nice and well-maintained. We couldn't have asked for a better stay! I highly recommend this 5 plus star GEM!!! WILL definitely return!”

“Great place for extended stay.”

“Jessica, you own a beautiful home. Very peaceful and serene. I didn't realize the home was located within a gated community. It was definitely icing on the cake. Me and all the ladies had a blast. I'm founder of a women's group and we gather in Galveston every Mothers Day! Thank you for a magnificent weekend filled with memories! Warm regards,”

“So the house was even more beautiful then the pictures showed. The surroundings were so peaceful and perfect for relaxation. the private access to the bay was perfect too, because we had some storms come in and the beach was restricted due to the weather, but the entire time the bay was calm and cool. The space was perfect for this family of five and we had my parents and grandma come and stay the last night, without anyone feeling cramped. We had access to the internet and our streaming apps, which helped one morning when a crazy storm blew through. It's centrally located and it was only about a 10 minute drive to restaurants and other activities. What was really nice, since we had storms, they had an extra covered staircase leading into the living room and kitchen, so after we bought groceries one night, and it was pouring, we never got wet, getting everyone and everything into the house. This stay was first class in our opinion, and will surely stay again very soon.”
