We loved this home. The tiny details they put into making you feel comfortable and making you feel like they took the time to clean.  The decorative towel placement on the beds reminded us of being on a cruise. They have a bag that was a gift for us, they had sealed soap and shampoos in the bathrooms and in the kitchen a sealed bag with individually sealed hand soap, dis soap, dishwsher pods, laundry pods were cute and convenient.  There was a guest book which was enjoyable to read and plenty of games to keep us entertained. 10/10 would stay again. It was a close walk to the beach and direct beach access. We loved it.

Enjoyes Stay

by Allen R

The only criticism is all the mosquitos . . . but it's Bolivar so it's expected. House was nice. A few minor issues but wouldn't stop us from renting again.

Easy check-in and fast response to any question I had. Close to the store which is a plus for me. Not a bad walk to the beach.

Happy Place is gorgeous, clean and spacious. It’s a few minutes from the beach. My family couldn’t utilize the porch or downstairs area because the mosquitoes were out in swarms. I will definitely rent this space again.

Not far from beach, ferry, and Galveston. The outside shower is nice to use after spending the day at the beach. The deck was nice to sit and relax.
