One night before cruise
Upon arriving and realizing that we had to drive though between 2 places so narrow you had to pull your mirrors in. No turn around room. Master on 1st fl. So hot and couldn’t keep door open not enough rm. It states 5 bathrooms and you would assume in the bedrooms but only 1 was, that was the reason we booked .Other doors wouldn’t open all the way. Kitchen nice, living rm nice. It would not be enough rm for more days. Patio was nice and we didn’t use the pool.

Overnight Stay Before Cruise
The property was in a great location for an overnight stay before our cruise. We didn't use the pool, but it was nice and clean. The property is older, but that didn't bother us. The bunks are on the floor and that was rough on some in our party. We noticed our feet were very dirty after walking through,maybe pack shoes for inside wear.rus

Great Soace for Large Group
Modern and updated inside with many beds, a fun game area, and plenty of bathrooms for a crowd! This property was the perfect place for our big group of 12 in town to celebrate an A&M graduation. It was both close to the A&M campus and The Strand which made it a convenient place to stay. Russel was extremely communicative and was always quick to respond, even checking in to make sure our stay was going well. There were a few items that were usable but damaged (leaky coffee machine, bunks in the game room were squeaky and wobbly, a couple faucets usable but loose). Other than these smaller issues and tight parking for our two cars in the rear, the house was perfect for our purposes and an overall good value for all it offered.

I did like that it had lots of beds, however the house was not very clean. The parking is a joke and the house only had one tv in the living room. The host was not accommodating when it came to early checkin, even though the housekeeper had somewhat cleaned the house

A Sad Stay at the Beach
The property was dirty, it was not as described, it was not large enough for twenty people, except for spots in beds. Many of the listed amenities were not on the property. The house was right on the street, the outside of the property had broken glass outside, no 4th bathroom, no fire pit, no playground, no garden, the parking situation was horrible and I felt like we would hit the house next door, every time we left the property. The only couch was old and too small and there was no dining table for a family and the pool had sand all in it. The stinking trash cans were outside the front door, two faucets were hang by a water line or something. There was no curb appeal and the porch and windows and doors were dirty. The last night our grandson got wet from rain dripping from the ceiling and rain came in the living room window and the carpet got wet. All of the bunk beds had terrible mattresses and were squeaky and our daughter had to sleep on the couch after the first night. The stairs were steep and dirty and there were only 10 of us and we were on top of each other. Such a disappointment for our once a year family trip. No response about how our host it going to make it right and it looks like VRBO does not care either. onprice was too much for such a pitiful and

Family vacation
We got there. Everything was good of course I was concerned about the weather called the host. She told me everything was fine that we were still good to go so me and my family got the road. When we arrive to the house The front of the house had four trash cans, two of them was full of trash, hanging out horrible flies everywhere Maggots everywhere and it was smelling horrible. We got in the house. Everything looked good. Shower was a mess black hair all over the shower. The storm came Monday morning. We ended up losing power stay out of power ended up sleeping in our cars Monday night. One of the rooms upstairs was leaking water from the ceiling called the hose to tell her about it. She told me to send over pictures which I did and she was going to send a handyman over. No one came. It was HOT none of the windows would open up on the house. It’s like they were shut, sealed which that is a hazard. We ended up cutting our trip short. We got there Sunday and left Tuesday morning. They would not accommodate us due to the power going out

House on Broadway
The property is nice with a pool, large bedrooms and kitchen, and 4 bathrooms. It was great for 6 adults and would be for a family. I think more seating in the living room would be helpful as there is only the couch. If you have more than 2 cars it can be a problem as you are on a main road. We had a great stay and enjoyed the house and Galveston. Russell was easy to contact and addressed any needs quickly. I highly recommend this house and host.

Will Not Book Again With Property Owner
We had 9 in our group and chose property and size. We walked in and there was a strange odor in the house. We were willing to overlook this. After completing unloading all of our luggage, my daughter and niece came down from one of the bedrooms with fleas crawling all over their feet. I contacted VRBO and within an hour the property owner contacted us with a different property. We were impressed we were given a different location so quickly. We did send pictures showing the fleas we had captured and put in a plastic bag. Our new location was only 3 bedroom and 2 bathrooms so much smaller than the 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms of the original property and was much further away from the historical distract but we made the best of it. Upon returning from our cruise I texted the property owners to ask for a fair refund for the smaller rental and inconvenience. I have waited over a week and still not heard from them.

Excellent chance to prove customer service
We had originally booked a home off of Broadway in Galveston so we could be close to the Strand for Mardi Gras festivities but a few days prior to our stay we were informed that there was a mechanical problem with that property and asked if we would mind changing to another house that was managed by the BeachBox group. We agreed to the replacement and it was an upgrade from the price of the original house that we booked even though the location was a ways down the island towards Jamaica beach. We checked in and the house was fantastic and everything was going good until we woke up the first morning to find that the Heat on the first floor wasn’t working and it was about 50 degrees in the house. Long story short, we contacted the property manager and he was able to dispatch a maintenance man out who replaced a faulty thermostat. The rest of our trip was fantastic. I guess the reason I am writing this is because we had several bad things happen on our little vacation, but Russell worked with us to make sure that we were taken Care of and we still have a great time. I think a lot of people would have complained about how their vacation was ruined by unexpected issues and would have drooled over the opportunity to write a scathing review about something out of anyone’s control.Thank you Russell for helping make our trip memorable. Five stars

Security not prioritized?
We stayed overnight here before our cruise out of Galveston Port. None of us had ever been to Galveston, and I can't say we were impressed with the area - at least the area the house was in. But the biggest issue we had - was a big HUGE one: The backdoor to the house has a glass paned door. One of the panes right above the lock, had no glass and had been duct-taped with some cardboard- It appeared as though someone had broken into the place! Right before I starting writing this review, I took a look back at the listing/previous reviews, and I realized the broken door had been an issue for another guest back in OCTOBER! Our group was so uncomfortable with the lack of security, they would not sleep downstairs (right next to that door), and they made sure there was a barricade against it before going to bed. Bottom line is- I would 100% find out if they've fixed or plan to ever fix/replace the door, before considering staying there. The only other thing I noticed that I would say needed addressing is the downstairs master bathroom's shower was a literally a trickle of water. We did order take out from Mario's and had great pizza!
