Houston Luxury Vibes w/ Private Pool & Spa!
Ola’s place feels like a luxury stay with the comforts of being in the suburbs. We also had our family join us on this trip for the holidays and it was spacious enough for everyone to have their own space once we were done each day with family time and then large common areas to hang out during the day and evenings and spend time together. The beds were incredibly comfortable and we are very picky about our sleeping quarters. 😊 Would definitely recommend to others staying here.

Modern house with large private pool

Tal's home was wonderful! It was a comfortable fit for my entire family. The home was clean and the area felt safe. We would definitely stay there again if we were to return to Houston!

Private pool in Port O'Connor
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home in Port O’Connor! The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The pool was a great bonus, and the outdoor space was perfect for unwinding. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful and well-equipped place to stay!

Gorgeous 3BR Pool/Cinema Home
Irma was a great host. She was responsive and helpful during the booking process as well as during our stay. The movie theater was a hit, and the instructions provided for the theater were easy to follow. The overall stay was excellent! We hope to enjoy this home again in the future!

The 54: Affordable Texas Gem!
Had a nice relaxing time at Barbara's! Sat outside on the back porch and enjoyed the sunset and cool breeze. Plenty of room downstairs and upstairs the beds were comfortable . We will be back again!

Olivia Bay House
Had a great time. Lucas was very responsive when had a question. Great fishing

Canal Home w/Boat Slip, Elevator & Golf Cart
Jeff's home is absolutely beautiful!! The deck overlooking the canal with high end outdoor furniture is the place to be. Time & attention was taken in creating this retreat. As a designer I was impressed! What's even better is how easy it is to work with Jeff! He is very kind, accommodating, and communicative. We had special needs (specifically for the elevator) and when he learned there was a problem with it prior to our arrival that day, he already had a repairman on the way and resolved it very quickly. It is obvious that Jeff cares about his guests!

Stylish Charm
house was amazing very clean would recommend staying

Endless Weekend
nice place to stay for crabbing and fishing right at back yard of the house ! the house should have a light at west stair.

Front Row Beautiful Newer Beach Home
Melissa’s place had everything we needed. It was so nice to sit on the balcony and watch the ocean or relax in the cozy living room and watch a movie. We enjoyed walking down the beach and ate at The Seahorse Grill several times. I recommend their queso and coconut shrimp.

Salty Swan Bay House ~ on Canal & Beach access!
Our Easter stay was amazing, it was not only fun but so relaxing too. We packed soo much but didn’t even have to, Misty&Kyle’s place had everything! The house was extremely clean and such an at home feel. The kids woke up and had a fishing tournament and my 6yo won! They caught crabs, croaker, black drum, pin fish and more. It was soo cool to watch the schools of fish at night before bed. I was nervous the kids would get very gross while fishing but they have plenty of water spouts around the home and the out door shower was soo handy from fishing and the beach, my kids didn’t even use the indoor shower! The outdoor seating was awesome too. If we are to stay in Galveston again we will def not even have to search for a different stay, we would love to come back right here ! We will also pack very light because we had everything we needed. We didn’t get a chance to use the kayaks because my kids and aunt just got straight into the canal and floated around. I cannot wait to come back !

Ocean views! Walk to the beach! Adjustable beds.
A wonderful place to stay! Beautifully appointed with everything you could need for a relaxing stay. Easy walk to the beach. V peaceful area. Joseph was great to communicate with and always very responsive. Highly recommend.

Canal Cottage Beach House - Galveston Bay Retreat
We found a gem!! Our stay at Lisa’s house was amazing. Beautifully decorated, peaceful location, close to the beach, fishing pier, restaurant and shopping. Downtown Galveston and lots of other attractions can be reached by car in a short amount of time. This is a family home our family fell in love with. Needless to say - we will be back soon! Thank you Lisa for sharing your lovely home with us!

Ocean View | Walk to Beach | Pool | Sleeps 13
My family enjoyed every minute of our stay. The house is amazing, with a beautiful view! We would definitely book again!

Sunny Days- Great 2nd Row House with Awesome Views
Tk was a wonderful & responsive host! Our originally booked place was in poor condition. Tk took our reservation for the next day, letting us check-in early. The house was perfect for our group. There's plenty of room for a large family. The dining tables are ideal for board & card games. The kitchen had plenty of dishes, varied pots & pans, & was easy-to-use. Everyone said their beds were comfortable. Tk let us know the city water wasn't usable for cooking and drinking (maybe because of the recent hurricane?). I would say, it's not great for bathing either. We ended up using gallon bottles for hair & hands. This house had quick easy access to the beach. The beach had other visitors but was never crowded. Everyone was responsible & respectful (no crazy music or drunken behavior). It was a very family friendly area. Overall we had a great time and really enjoyed the slower pace in Surfside!

Canal Home- Fishing & Kayaks, Pet Friendly
We’ve stayed at many locations from ABB. This place had unmatched hospitality, toiletries, and conveniences. We have a house in the same neighborhood but when it was full needed a place to go. The fishing was awesome right of the back canal. The fenced dog run made the stay very accommodating to our French Bulldogs. 10/10 review from us. We will definitely be back. The owners are very relaxed and just made it easy to enjoy. Best holiday ever!!

Surfside Beach Direct beachfront with great views
Nice house with a great view , the different style makes it stand out from the other houses on the beach . Made it easy for us to find the house when we would go out . Very spacious as well would definitely come again
