Texas Medical Center Apartment
Very clean & comfortable, we stayed during a visit to MD Anderson. Great host, super helpful & patient with my lack of technical knowledge! We will definitely stay at the Fornix home again!

Pelican Haven
Visit in mid-June was great! Beach not too crowded. Beautiful accommodations and loved the kitchen! Host was clear on instructions to make our stay perfect! I would definitely book again.

Upscale Waterfront Condo on beautiful Clear Lake!
Tracy’s place was everything I hoped it would be. Very peaceful . very clean and welcoming. Whatever you may need in the kitchen, it’s there. We spent a lot of our time sitting out on the balcony watching the fish jump out and the birds flying by. Perfect spot for morning coffee, afternoon reading and evening night cap. Great location for visiting family. Only 10 minutes away, if that. Next visit, we will stay there again. We found our home away from home. Tracy is friendly and quick to respond . She is an excellent host!

Isle B Back Seawall Gulf & Pool View! Come Chillax
The hosts were very responsive and helpful. They sent a list of things my son might like to do once we arrived at the condo, and followed up to ensure everything was going well.

Oceanview Beachfront 2/2 Sleeps Six-Free WiFi
Very cozy place. Felt like home. Great location. Crossing Seawall Blvd to get to the water was easy and could be done with small children. Douglas is a great and prompt communicator. Highly recommend.

Cozy Coastal Cottage, San Leon TX
I totally recommend this place! It was so scenic and comfortable and peaceful. I didn’t feel like this was an Airbnb host just trying to make quick passive income. I felt this host went out of their way to make their home an experience for me and my brother as their guests. My only regret… I wish I booked a longer stay.

Steps to Boardwalk, Bayfront, 216ft Pier, Elevator
We had a wonderful time. Great location would love to visit again thanks for everything.

Galveston Bayhouse on Main Canal with Bay View
Wonderful two night stay. Just what we needed for our family of 5 with teenagers, 10 year old, and 2 puppies. Wonderful neighborhood with water all around. Kayaking the canals and bay, fishing from the dock, driving just down the road to great beaches, clean and comfy furniture and sleeping, washer and dryer on site as well as kayak and beach supplies, wonderful restaurants in neighborhood or within 5-10 min drive, etc….we just wanted to stay longer next time or buy a home in neighborhood. Thank you for great memories, even for such a quick trip.

Waterfront fun! Kayaks, Bikes, Fire Pit & Fishing!
Great home. Great amenities. The host really helps you settle in to what’s in the community which is a great benefit and stress relief! We got the golf cart rental and beach umbrella/chair set up so this made it even better. Access right onto the beach with the golf cart. We caught a ton of fish at the recommend neighborhood spots and went back and forth from beach to fishing and also enjoyed the kayaks! Can’t wait to stay again next year.

Amazing POOL Property Near Kemah TX
Paul was a great host and his home met all of our groups needs. The pool was beautiful and very restful after a long day of soccer games. We would definitely stay here again!

The Crab Shack
The Crab shack was just right for our little getaway. The location is great and it still feels private! We were able to rent a golf cart and drive it to the boardwalk and a lot of the other local attractions and eating places.

Waterfront Home w/ Views | Hot Tub + Movie Theatre
Absolutely enjoyed staying here. Beautiful place, the elevator was such a neat feature. Super clean, and the host was very quick to answer any questions I had throughout the stay.

Bayfront Luxury House with Pool
This was an all time favorite place that we have ever stayed in. Incredible space, indoor and out. Gorgeous view, super responsive hosts. Everyone wants to go back. It was a perfect space to have my family’s gathering to celebrate my nieces birthdays together. Sparkling clean too!
Waterfront condo accommodation

~Beachfront~ Stunning! Ocean View! Isla Tortuga
This is a perfect place to getaway for an extended stay or even a quick weekend. The home is very clean and well maintained. They provide all the basic essentials you could need during your stay. The location is phenomenal, right on the seawall with a relaxing and peaceful view. We really enjoyed this trip and felt very much at home. We wish we didnt have to leave, but definitely enjoyed the visit! Thanks Jamie and Vince for such an enjoyable experience. We will definitely be coming back again.

Enjoy the Sunrise - Spacious 1 Br Beach Condo
Walking distance to the beach! Across the street are Seawall stairs. Everything was so clean and well stocked. The ac felt great after a long day swimming. Very responsive and helpful! Would love to come back!

Lazy River, Pools, Beach-Float, Sip, Soak, Repeat.
Loved our stay . Great condo on the second floor. Easy check in and out. Gregory checked in on us every day to make sure everything was as we needed. All amenities at the condo available for stay. While a bit isolated from the rest of Galveston it’s what makes this location quiet and peaceful. The pool and lazy river are amazing. Property has on site lift for the pool which made our stay even more pleasant . The bar was open which was also a treat . Didn’t get to experience the on site spa . Seawall Cafe and Sea Horse Grill are hidden gems. We loved our stay and would definitely return

Captains Cove seaside relax
Very easy to find and in a great location for those of you that want a quieter beach but still close to everything.

Gorgeous Beachfront Sunsets w/ Private Balcony
Terra and Darin’s place was absolutely perfect for our little girls getaway trip. The unit was exactly as described, very clean and had easy access to parking AND the beach. And it was VERY well stocked. Communication was fast and they even allowed us a little leeway on the arrival time. I’d definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for a beachfront unit in the Galveston area.

Island Hideaway! Pools! Hot Tubs! Cruise Parking!
This condo is perfect for a family beach trip! We enjoyed the amenities as well as the proximity to the beach and all Galveston has to offer.

Latitude Adjustment Hot Tubs Gulf Views Pools Ahhh
We enjoyed our weekend stay here! The condo was cozy and perfectly placed to see the ocean and pool from the balcony. There were a lot of options on what to do in the area. They even provided a cooler and beach toys if needed. Great communication with the host as well.

Beachfront Beauty - Right On The Beach!
Perfect spot for a quiet getaway with family or friends, with a direct view of the beach from two small balconies and a small, very clean pool in the complex. Unit has everything you need, including beach towels available for use. On the "first" floor (really the second), and high enough to have a good view of the ocean over the dunes. Older but very clean and well maintained complex with excellent customer service at the front desk. Owner was incredibly responsive to questions and communications. Went with my adult son with a disability who loved the safe, smaller size of the complex and the quieter atmosphere. We will definitely be back!
