Cottage holiday rentals in Galveston Bay

Clean house. Had everything you can think of in the kitchen for cooking / grilling. It was very nice to have a washer/Dryer. Backyard was pretty and loved the outside shower to rinse off after the beach. Michael was very responsive, professional, and kind.

My family and I had a great stay. Every picture and everything listed were very accurate. Geat space and lots of sleeping accommodations.

We enjoyed our stay! The home was clean and cozy. Our favorite part was outside as the backyard was very private with a large privacy fence and a play set that our two children absolutely loved, making it easy to visit with family while they were entertained. Would stay again!

The property is beautiful… there is a view from every window and balcony. You can see the ocean and the bay… unique for Galveston Island. There is a pond directly outside and with the fountain, which kept mosquitos away. The kitchen is good for entertaining a family, and there is a formal and outdoor dining area. I would suggest bringing a bed pillow, high quality pan, and extra roll of paper towels. Alex was nice and responsive. The resort is family oriented and the quiet was well worth the 20 minute drive. We will stay with this host again!

Our stay in Houston was great and the house was a huge part of that. We are a family of four (6 and 3 year old), and this place was perfect for us. The kids enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The pool area is very private and landscaped nicely. We would stay here again if we return to the Houston area.

We had a wonderful stay at the cottage! The house is perfect for a family beach trip and Antonio was an excellent host - great communication with all the details needed up front. The ADA beach access was very close and easier to navigate with a wagon than others we’ve used. The place has comfy furnishings and we felt right at home! Specifically, the sofa, beds and linens nice and blackout curtains. We found everything we needed at the cottage: Everything needed for the resort pools and beach (adult and kid beach towels, sand toys, beach chairs, wagon, outdoor shower, etc.). Kitchen: a variety of skillets, pots, and pans, baking sheets, cooking utensils, cups, nice dual coffee machine for k-cup or a whole drip pot. Bathrooms: tidy and stocked with towels, travel toiletries, makeup removal wash cloths Bonus: toys and books for kids, TVs (bunk room, living room, downstairs patio), first aid kit, washer/dryer and deck/rocking chairs to watch the herons and turtles in the lagoon!

We had a Great time in Galveston. After taking in the sights, we felt right at home, to rest for our next adventure. The location of this Airbnb was about a 10 Minute walk to the Beach which we took advantage of.

This was our second time to stay at Sarah’s place and we’d just always feel so comfortable and at home. Sarah is a great host. Always kind to communicate, responsive and helpful! The accommodations are perfect for our little family. Our favorite part is the downstairs bar area. We spend most of our time there and really enjoy the sea breeze and relaxation. Thank you Sarah, for another great stay.

We had a hiccup upon arrival but our hosts were very responsive and helpful! The beds were comfortable and the house just felt like home. It was an easy walk to the beach for both the kids and adults! I recommend giving this place a try if you are down around the area!

We had an amazing stay! The house was very cute and had a lot of beautiful details. Barbara left muffins and fresh flowers and everything was clean. They had beach towels and chairs/toys for children available if needed. The beds were super comfortable as well! We will definitely be staying here again

thank you for the stay, very attentive and great location

Definitely worth it. Little get away from the city. Whole house to yourself can’t complain about a thing. Beautiful home everything was pretty simple and straight forward. It’s about 7 blocks away from the beach the home is located in a really great spot. Defiantly will be back in the future.

Great location, perfect for small families.

Overall great place and great host. Fast response .The house was very nice , neat and clean. Will definitely stay again.

We had a fantastic stay at Sugar Shores Cottage—all the pink was so cute and perfect for our bachelorette weekend. The beds were comfortable and clean and we really appreciated the number of bathrooms in the house. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed.

Second stay here and we love it! We will be back without a doubt. The house is cozy, clean and comfortable. The location is so close to all the action. And the little yard is always perfect for us to hang out and unwind at night. Lauren is so sweet and accommodating. Thanks again for another perfect stay!

My family & I stayed here to celebrate our vow renewal. The Cardinal Cottage is absolutely so beautiful and peaceful and homey feel! Mallory and Melina are such amazing host and really went above and beyond to make us feel special! Our kiddos loved the upstairs loft area! The front porch is so beautiful as well! This place is 10 out of 10!!! I would book this home again in a heartbeat! Also so close by the shopping mall and so many restaurants!

We enjoyed our stay so much. The house was so comfortable and clean. We didn’t have any issues at all. The hosts were helpful and nice.

This was a fantastic experience,nice place with plenty of room.we were able to meet the owners and they were super cool people.ive stayed at many places across America and this one stands out for several reasons but above all it's the attention to DETAIL!!! these folks have thought of everything,I've never stayed somewhere where I didn't need anything extra.From things like shampoo and razors,coffee to the beach toys,chairs boogie boards and bikes.we were super impressed with all the small stuff that made our weekend that much less stressful.10/10 will return and do recommend.Thanks guys for having us!!!!

Cute and quaint little beach house. Very close to the beach! Amenities as listed. Perfect little home away from home. It is walking distance from the beach, but I will say this tidbit- if you’re traveling with kids (we have three littles)- renting a golf cart would be helpful so you’re not lugging kids and all the beach gear in/out of the car to/from the beach all day! We couldn’t walk with all kids, in the heat, with all our beach stuff. Would definitely recommend & return. Thanks, Shiva!

We loved our stay here! It was perfect for our family. We would 100% stay here again. The neighborhood felt safe and it was the perfect location for the activities we wanted to do. This was the cleanest and most organized Airbnb we have ever stayed at. The only issue we had was initially getting into the place, but once get down the locks and doors - it was easy. Thank you, Terri!

We stayed at Shell Cottage for Memorial Day weekend. I had given up on staying at air bnb’s last year but after the wonderful stay at Shell Cottage, I have faith in air bnb’s once again. The property is very clean. The host is detailed and very response. We enjoyed every day. Thank you for the wonderful accommodations. Shell cottage is our first choice for our future Galveston trips.
