The house was clean, very well-stocked, and decorated nicely (loved the Christmas tree!). The fenced yard and lift were huge pluses, and the large deck was fantastic. Beach access for golf carts wasn't far. The only thing that would have made our stay absolutely perfect would have been direct access to the fenced area for the dogs, like our last rental, so I wouldn't have had to take them up and down so much. Would definitely rent again. Highly recommend!

Great house

Laura made our arrival, stay and departure a breeze. The house is beautiful, great location with easy access to the beach. Well stocked home. Great backyard fenced with a fire pit and chairs. We made s’mores and built a fire. It’s great for pets too! We had a BIG storm our last day and lost power at 1 pm. We made the best of it and took the ferry to Galveston for lunch and little shopping. Laura was willing to make other arrangements for us to stay somewhere else if we didn’t get power back. She went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable our last night. Thankfully the electric came back on around 8 pm. I highly recommend this house to anyone. Pet friendly was a big plus and the cargo lift was a life saver. I will say, if you’re looking to rent a golf cart DO NOT rent from West Canal Golf Cart rental. They were very rude and had to replace our cart 4 times in one day for mechanical issues. The fourth cart we had to zip tie the roof on so it didn’t clank the whole time you rode in it. We literally lost a whole day of cart use and they didn’t offer to refund anything. Overall we had a great time and again I highly recommend this property!

Señor Whiskers Beach House was Wonderful

We enjoyed our stay at Señor Whiskers so much. There were no issues at all. We followed Laura’s instructions and everything worked just as she said it would. We didn’t need to contact her about anything during our stay. The location was great. We loved drinking coffee in the tall chairs with a view of the Gulf on the porch every morning. The other porch was so big and nice. It was fully covered as well. The lift was great to move all of our stuff. An all around great place. We will definitely stay here again!

Fun stay in Crystal Beach

We enjoyed our stay in Crystal Beach! The house was cute, clean and well-appointed for our family. There were many toys and games that our 2 1/2 year old grandson loved. We were a short block away from the beach and could see the waves from the front deck. Crystal Beach (Bolivar Peninsula) is a quirky area - very different from our area in CA. We enjoyed our visit and would definitely recommend this property!
