We rented the property for my son’s 36th birthday. The layout of the place was awkward. There is no internal access from one floor to the other. The bedrooms are small, and the ceilings are very low. The property is sparsely decorated, but in a very good location.

The property manager responded in a timely manner and was helpful. These are the items that should be addressed to make this property satisfactory. Ice maker did not work. Refrigerator on the ground floor was not cooling due to its location in the sun for most of the day. The washing machine was broken. The property manager did arrange for our clothes to be washed at a laundry. Clothes were picked up and delivered fresh and folded. Some cabinet drawers stuck and were not accessible. For the most part the house was clean but we washed all the kitchen utensils and dishes before use. Since we spent most of our time at the beach we were able to enjoy our stay despite these inconveniences. We had plenty of room and the beds were comfortable.

This was our first time to use VRBO and probably the last. The pictures they used are probably 7 or 8 yrs old, because the house was not like the pictures. The A/C is inadequate to cool the house. A/C was broken when we arrived and they had to replace the capacitor. The place only cooled down late at night to around 75. All day it was 85-89 degrees. Worst vacation we ever had and the very costly due to all the fees to go thru Svcs. This place is not what it shows in pictures and was filthy outside. They charge $248 cleaning fee to renters and must pocket money becuse we had to clean up when we arrived. Bugs all over so they send an exterminator first day. Not much of a vacation

Decided to do a last minute getaway to the westend of Galveston. The house was just as it was presented on Costal Waves web-site. Coastal Waves responded quickly from the start. We had a small issue entering the home, but they were able to get us inside within a few minutes. Very impressed with their services and will use them again.

we enjoyed our stay, kitchen had plenty of pots, pans, utensils. plenty room for all 7 of us. upstairs beds were too soft for some, but once they removed the mattress topper it was better.
only complaint would be the game room which we didn't use because it smelled moldy. i would say airing it out would help. otherwise great location.

Great place for two families as the downstairs had two bedrooms and a bathroom in the upstairs had two bedrooms and a bathroom. They were separated And not able to be accessed from the other floor.
The door code will not let you in till 4 PM so just be aware of that because I was a few minutes early. Make sure and read all of your emails you get regarding how to get into each floor because it is kind of confusing.
The place was great and you only had to walk across the street to get to the beach and it was very nice also. We enjoyed our stay!

My family of 8 had a very pleasant comfortable stay. Plenty of room- we had 6 adults, 2 children and 2 dogs. Just a short walk to the beach down a quiet road. You do have to cross a main road but still not too busy. It is about 30 minutes from the seawall but for our family that was perfect. The downstairs does have lots of roly poly bugs but again it's a beach house. My family enjoyed it!

The property was clean and fresh. The beds were very comfortable. We had an issue with the microwave when we first arrived but the management team had someone there within minutes to resolve the issue. Check out was easy as was check in. It is a quick drive to the beach (less than 5 minutes). We would certainly return to this property again.

We love Galveston and always look forward to our annual summer beach trip. The Beach the bay the breeze was a great house and plenty of room for are family. There was enough room for all our grown children and two grand kids. We are a multigenerational family so grandma goes everywhere with us and she even was able to go find a quiet space when she needed. The beach is just a quick trip across the main road and the Strand is just a short car drive away, also one of our favorites things to do when we visits Galveston. We make several trips into town to visit the strand and it did not feel like it was far. We would recommend this house to a large family who like to spend time together and still be able to have your own space if desired.

Looks better in photos
The upstairs area looks great, nice and clean. The downstairs is very awkward. It is cramped and small with little privacy. The attached garage / game room had a smell that made it unusable. We killed several roaches both inside and outside of the house. One actually crawled on a guest. The upper deck has no shade, but that’s where the breeze is and the downstairs has the shade and no breeze. I wouldn’t stay here again.

Great location!
Our family enjoyed our time spent together over Spring Break even with the weather not being cooperative. My favorite part was watching and listening to the morning waves. We hope to go back again next year.
