This house was great! Very spacious and clean. We had a great time and the owner was quick to respond. It was not in a high traffic area so we didn't have lot of noise but still close enough to everything. Would definitely recommend!

The property was very clean, updated and fit our family of 16 perfectly!! The owner was great at communicating and I love the fact that it was gated and secluded a bit. The views of the bay were amazing and the house was well stocked with our needs. Each bedroom has its own bathroom which worked out well for us. Hoping to do this same house in the summer.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this property. It was a beautiful location, with water views all around- perfect for sitting on one of porches and relaxing. There was plenty space for 13 of our family members, and they have a bunk room that is perfect if multiple families are traveling with kids. It was a gated community, so it felt safe and secure. Each room has its own bathroom as well, which is a huge plus with multiple families traveling together. The photos were accurately depicted and the manager was very quick to respond to any messages.
The only downside of this home is that it was pretty unclean. I would just suggest passing that on to the cleaning crew because I’m sure they’re supposed to be held to a higher cleanliness standard.
Overall, we would absolutely return and visit this home!
5.0
We had a great stay. Having a bathroom attached to each bedroom was great having a dog family there. The beach is only a few minutes away, grocery store less than 10 mins away.
Host responded quickly to any questions. We would definitely stay again.
For future guest, bunk room doesn’t have a fan, so may want to bring one,

GOOD - Great views, Secure, Quiet & good access.
BAD - Couldn't lock front/back doors. Key didn't work. Dead bolt frozen in.
Refrigerator needs work. Constantly was beeping. Froze our food, ice dispenser didn't stop ejecting ice.
Stove. left front burner didn't work. Igniter is broken off.
Smoke alarm in one of the upper bedrooms was missing.
Thermostat needs to be fixed to wall.It is just hanging by wires. It does work however!
Toilet paper holder in the master bedroom area needs to be fixed again. Has been knocked off and put back on several times due to use of long screws
Carpet in master bedroom was curled up & clear tripping menace!
Not one spatula in the place. Nor a corkscrew.
Walls throughout were filthy. Some things had been stuck on onto walls above living room windows - pretty unsightly. You might try repainting with semi-gloss or satin, it cleans better.
Floors throughout were also filthy. You might want to have a talk with cleaning people!!!
Most mattresses like sleeping on plywood except bunks which were really, really soft.
Living room sectional is totally sagging & broken. Really uncomfortable. We were relagated to sitting on dining chairs when watching TV.
Last but not least. I would highly recommend that IF you are a Senior or over weight or otherwise not in "tip top" shape, you find another place to stay. The stairs are KILLER!

Beautiful home in a quiet area. Close to everything. Some new home construction nearby but not a problem.

I had a great stay! The living areas were big and perfect for relaxing. Everything was clean and tidy, which made me feel at home. The place had everything I needed, from a kitchen full of supplies to good bathroom products. You can tell the hosts want to make sure guests are comfortable. I really liked staying here and would recommend it to anyone who wants a comfortable, well-equipped place to stay.

We planned a family weekend getaway. We wanted a beach house with no close neighbors and in a quiet area. The beach house is in a gated community which was a plus. The house is beautiful and very spacious. Each bedroom has a full size bathroom. I highly recommend this place!!!

Great property! Amazing views, clean and no neighbors on top of you. About 20 mins to get downtown- which was perfect as around the house was very quiet and in gated neighborhood.

Our group of ten visited Galveston to celebrate the birthdays for my best friend and my husband. The Egret's nest home was well maintained, had seamless check-in/check-out and had amazing sunset views over the gulf. The neighborhood was quiet and off the beaten path but close enough to shopping, beaches and fishing. We plan to visit and stay again for our next adventure.

This is a fantastic newer home with a spectacular view and enough beds, rooms with private baths, and large gathering areas to gather friends or families. House includes all of the amenities you could need. Fully stocked kitchen - just bring food! Property manager had great communication and made check in, check out, and home instructions so easy. Would love to return for longer visit!
