Incredible stay! Location is great, convenient to downtown (the Strand). All you need for a home away from home and hosts are very responsive. Private parking and private balcony are a huge plus!
Very nice place. We loved the location. Walking distance to all shops and restaurants on the strand and a short drive to the seawall and beaches. The condo is clean and modern with comfortable beds.Definitely would stay again.
I have a lot of options when I stay in Galveston, Tx. I always choose to stay here. This home is consistently clean, the host is kind and you can not beat the location. My favorite place to stay!
Staying at the stables is amazing! Everything you need, in a fantastic location, and well appointed. Thank you so much for allowing us to stay for our Mardi Gras ball. It was the best!
We had a great stay and loved having the option to park our vehicle inside the garage instead of out on the street. The location is great, barely a block away from the Strand. Great, clean place to stay. We plan to make another trip soon!
Excellent amenities and location. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the balcony as well as wine in the evenings. Nice linens and comfortable beds along with a well stocked kitchen if you want to eat in or enjoy a cocktail. I would highly recommend and we will definitely return for another stay.
The best place to stay on the island! Clean, convenient and accommodating! The host has thought of everything extra you might need on your trip and makes it available for your use !
Extremely clean. Excellent communication and accommodation from Owner. Dedicated parking garage big enough to fit our Q80 was a luxury. Excellent location very short walk to the Strand. We parked in the garage and walked to everything all weekend.We will not stay anywhere else in Galveston if this place is available.
We loved the property. It was clean and inviting and close to lots of different things to do, see and eat. We will definitely consider staying here again.

The house was stunning and in a great location! Monique provided everything we needed and more in the home, and was very responsive and personable.
This was by far the best VRBO I’ve stayed at! The home was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we could possibly need, from a well-stocked kitchen to thoughtful amenities throughout. I felt completely safe during my stay, and having a garage was a huge plus. Everything was easy, relaxing, and perfectly maintained. I’ll definitely be staying here again next time I’m in Galveston!
Great location and really liked being able to keep our bikes in the garage. Easy to check in, very clean and enjoyed the balcony at night. We will be back!!!
This place is located right off the strand which makes it easy to enjoy the shops and restaurants without having to drive anywhere. The bedrooms were large. Everything was modern and great amenities. A plus- a garage to park your car in.
