Oatley 2025 Summer Fun

Our trip was a celebration of birthdays for our family. We had sun, fun, great food and fond memories. We found our lodging to be just as described. There was every amenity we could think of and then some. We had a issue with the air, but the host was quick to respond. We were in close proximity of the beach. The deck was amazing to enjoy your coffee on while enjoying the sunrise. There is a third level for observation/sunbathing, but the steps are bit uneasy. My adult children didn't seem to mind as much though. LOL We are thankful for our stay and all that came with it.

Beach Bungalow

The property was as advertised and very spacious. Well furnished and had everything we needed. The weather was crummy so we got to spend way more time inside than we planned and didn’t get to the pool but house was homey and comfy.

Awesome time!

My family and I come to Galveston every summer - it’s usually my sisters and I, our parents, and our younger children. We have stayed at many houses over the years, but this one has been our favorite. Plenty of seating in both the living area and the kitchen. All the appliances we needed were there. The rooms were all comfortable and clean. AC worked perfectly and great wifi! The location to the beach is awesome - a 1 minute drive straight to the beach access point. We also loved that the community pool was close and it was big and nice! We will definitely be back to this property.

House and neighborhood was nice, it was not listed that the neighborhood pool was closed on Tuesdays, it stormed the last day, which was unfortunate in being able to do anything. Overall nice quiet place.

Great gathering place for Christmas

We enjoyed our time at the beach bungalow and appreciate all the efforts made to make it feel like home away from home. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed, there was plenty of room for everyone to sleep, eat, and relax. We really loved the porch area and beach view. Thanks for a great Christmas vacation home.
