The agent has multiple properties, but our condo was at Maravilla. This condo complex boasts the largest swimming pool in Galveston. It has an island in the middle of the pool that our children, 12, 10, 8, and 5 thoroughly enjoyed. It also has a heated pool for those colder fall evenings. The other residents were accommodating and helpful, even letting us join in a family barbecue. The room was clean and decorated. AC worked great, cable TV worked great. Plenty of sleeping room for my entire crew, including bunk beds and two large bedrooms. The master and the family room opened up to the spacious balcony which overlooked the Gulf of Mexico. Gorgeous! Pets are welcome, even though we didn't bring our lab. There is one thing that I can assure you. We won't be going back to Galveston, unless we are staying at a property managed by My Galveston Getaway.

We couldn't even stay there for more than 13 hours due to the amount of mold. We got in late so we had no choice but to stay until the morning, everyone woke up sick. When we asked for a refund airbnb will not directly credit the funds they are making us choose a host payout method that will force us to fill out tax papers and takes 1.5% of the funds. The host is only offering a partial credit because she has determined the condo was clean. Appalled and disgusted that they will take advantage of families and put them in potential health risks. I have pictures and proof of all the mold, the toilet not working, the dishes caked on with food, the sliding glass door had no handles and what was there was broken off. Everything was covered in dust and overall grimmy. Cathie has stated that it is professionally cleaned and that she also has allergies so to her it was fine. I do not believe cathie has been in this property in months. It did not look anything like the photos. The condo needs to be reported to the health dept due to the amount of mold.

We rented 16603 Jamaica Cove Rd. Jamaica Beach, TX right outside of Galveston…read more Likes: House was on canals connected to the bay. Included two kayaks the kids loved. We could fish right off the back dock, and there was a nice covered lounging area on the deck above the dock area. House was clean and in good order. Contained a full size washer and dryer. Fence allowed us to let the pug run free. Dislikes: Downstairs (2 bedroom, washroom with dorm fridge, bathroom) is DETACHED FROM UPSTAIRS (2 BR, 2 bath, living, kitchen). This was not clear from the marketing statements. Downstairs is poorly air conditioned. The small unit in the front downstairs BR never really cooled anything. We resorted to buying two box fans. Downstairs BR with 2 bunk beds contained a ceiling fan we considered dangerously close to the bunk bed ladders. Dryer would never shut off via timer. Had to be manually stopped by opening the door. Overall Thoughts: We enjoyed our vacation and the house. If the cooling and detached levels issues were not present this would have been at least 4 stars.

Needless to say we lost over $250 of food items. The company offered a partial refund, but after signing their CYA agreement, no refund was ever given. The property had zero reviews, so I suspect we are not the first to be bought off to not say anything mean on an Airbnb review.

Beach Bunny - Thanksgiving 2013 - 1 week stay, family of 4, from Austin, TX…read more We've stayed here before, and knew essentially what to expect: CLOSEST house to the water! So, it's not the fanciest of accommodations: it's a no-frills beach house in Surfside (which is not a "luxury" area). If you know Surfside, then you know the area. If you are expecting luxury, pick a different beach. Beach Bunny: yeehaw, some nice improvements since our last stay! The kitchen is SO much nicer after renovations - it's usable! Great fridge, oven, & microwave. Coffee pot: annoying break in the pour spout made for dribbled messes. Other than that, kitchen is totally in working order, and well-equipped with the essentials. They have added a kitchen table, which is nice BC we brought our kids this trip (previously, there was only a bar). Living room: yea to the nice futon-couches! If you've seen pics of wicker furniture, be happy that they've been replaced! Nice coffee & end tables. TV in good working order with Satellite. Bedrooms: where you sleep & keep your clothes. Absolutely nothing fancy, but the beds are comfortable & the dressers/wardrobes were plenty for our week's stay. I call it a bonus that there's a TV with Satellite in the master bedroom. Bathroom: all in working order (although a big "#2" might need some help! LOL! Plunger provided, but wasn't needed). Nice amount of space for toiletries. Cleanliness: I, saw 1 roach (not a"billion," as I read). Have no complaints. I didn't inspect deeply: this is Surfside! I washed what I thought should be washed, trusted what I thought could be trusted. Didn't take notice to any cobwebs, or notice anything gross (per other reviews). Porch/deck: AWESOME! I really miss the porch swing! Be sure to bring chairs: the built-in bench faces the house, not the water. Nice picnic table! Be aware of the entry rug: it WILL be wet (seaspray), but nice to wipe off feet! (Tip: bring a wash-tub & keep a towel handy to lessen the sand coming into the house!) The portion that wraps around was a welcome respite from the biting cold wind! Our bag of linens was there as promised: I chuckle that it's all just left together in the bag (sheets, pillow cases, towels, etc), but no matter! Our challenge: it was frigid the first 2 days of our stay. I had verified there was heat (via window units), however, none of them worked (to provide heat). Thankfully, there were 2 space heaters, but needed a 3rd for each of the living areas. Since we arrived late, we were given extra blankets (to make it thru the 1st night), and a nice custodian arrived the next day with another space heater. (also used the oven to heat up the place "ghetto-style" for 1st night - thanks for the tip! Odd to me, but functional!) Water: do NOT drink, threatened illness/death! Ok, it's brown & foul-smelling; wash clothes at your own risk (it's a nice thought to provide washer & dryer, and they are nice units!). The water: not the fault of the Beach Bunny, & we were well aware of this before we arrived (but signing the part about "possible death" for drinking the water is daunting)! Kinda funny: my biggest disappointment = no one informed us we couldn't park on the beach! Last time here, we parked right next to the steps leading up to the house. Apparently, the beach was washed away - 50% gone from our last stay, and no driving on the beach this time. That means: you park "far away" and must hoof-it over the boardwalk to the house...makes for an exhausting unloading & loading! But, this is Mother Nature, not Beach Bunny/Beach House Associates. Kinda cool to have to trek over the boardwalk to your house, vs. trekking over the boardwalk to get to the beach! Though some may not find this desirable (but as a mom, I did!): this house is"kid-central!" The location is PERFECT for kids to gather, as the main boardwalk leads from a houses farther back, so there are quite a few passers-by next to the house. I'm all about welcoming kids to play, so the Beach Bunny became "the place" for gathering (this was all my encouragement, BTW!). If privacy is important: just don't invite anyone up! (last stay here was our anniversary, so no kids, & we had no problems!). What else? This is by far the BEST beach house on Surfside to be in! From the proximity of the beach, to the cozy but simpleton accommodations, if you want to be close to the water: this place rocks! Hope ya'll have a great stay at the Beach Bunny, we sure did!!!
