Great house! They had so many things available in the house!!! It is decorated so amazing, you have to go around and look at everything! We are on the Krewe of Aquarius, so this was so convenient to be at the barn to take out float EARLY in the morning! Great location, great house and amazing hosts!!

This home was so charming. Myself, my sister, the aunts and the cousins all agreed we felt right at home the moment we walked in. Also, cleanliness is at the top of the list for us. We were just looking for a place to gather to play games, cook meals and so on. And, boy, did we pick the right place!

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful historic home. It was thoughtfully equipped for a family and had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. The location was perfect, making it easy to enjoy the area while still feeling cozy and at home. The beautiful home is near the beach, Pleasure Island, The Strand and delicious restaurants (Mario’s Seawall Italian restaurant is a must) David truly went above and beyond—every detail was considered, and they made our Christmas feel extra special and magical. We couldn’t have asked for better hosts and would absolutely stay here again.

First time using Airbnb and glad I did . Everything was great, very clean and comfortable. We relaxed and enjoyed our time in Galveston very much. We have been in Galveston before but never enjoyed it like this time. Thank you David and Sharon .
