Cottage holiday rentals in Galveston County

My family and I enjoyed our stay at David's place. There was plenty of seating through out the house and outside as well as sleeping areas available. The views of the beach were great. The neighborhood was very quiet, which is something we required.

Location is great, walking distance to beach and restaurants, house clean and plenty of amenities, and the hot tub is a great way to relax after enjoying the island. Definitely will stay again.

We stayed at Tammy's place with our 2 grandsons. It is a lovely place. The house was spotless and in a great location. Our grandsons spent so much time on the beach which is just steps away from the house. My husband and I could sit on the covered porch and watch them dig for hours. Of course, we were right there with them when they wanted to go boogie boarding (3 boards available at the house). The house was well stocked with dishes, glasses and pots. Tammy gave us recommendations on where to grocery shop and even a nice restaurant down the road. If I had a question, she was very responsive and answered quickly. The hot tub was an added bonus which we all enjoyed at night. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. We certainly hope to be able to visit again. Thank you!

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

This was a great place for us to stay, really enjoyed the location and the house!

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!

Love the house and the area. Will definitely be here again next year.

The place was exactly like the pictures. Easy check in and very responsive hosts. We felt right at home when we walked in. Easy access to the beach and the provided wagon, beach chairs, umbrella, and sand toys made it even nicer to enjoy the beach. We enjoyed the top deck area and view of the fountain and bay. The resort is about a mile away and provides nice amenities to enjoy if you choose to purchase the reasonably priced pass.

Really enjoyed our stay, we had so much fun there we ended up adding another night

We stayed for one night prior to our cruise. Everything was as stated in description. We didn’t use a lot of the amenities due to lack of time. The only downside was nothing on Gilda’s part- there was a lot of siren activity all night long.

Just what I needed for a last-minute get away.. a small house with the necessities. I was happy about the size because of my back injury; I can barely move or stand, so short distances were helpful. It was close by to all things that I needed to access! I did bring my two pups, and it was great for them. I had to observe them in the backyard because the fencing wasn’t super secure, but this was okay, as my dogs do not try to escape. This is a pet friendly stay, and there may be traces of dog hair, as there were some when I arrived. This did not deter me AT ALL, and the house was not unkempt by any means! Just something to keep in mind for anyone not use to pups. The bedroom sleeps a bit warm; the window unit may need a cleaning/maintenance. Minor detail. It was an accommodating visit. Candice is helpful. Pay attention to her instructions on the location. I was initially confused on where to go. Perfect for a quick couple of sleeps and providing a desk for remote work. Thanks Candice!<3

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!

When I saw it online I thought it sounded great. But, it looked even better in person. Be sure and read the backstory of the renovation in the article on the wall. It is very interesting, and impressive. The host was great. There was nothing lacking at all. It was a very comfortable place. We didn't have many questions, but she always answered very them promptly. Sonny's place next door is really fun, and a nice place for a good bowl of gumbo or a coney . We will definitely stay here again.

I started out looking for a place nearby my best friend’s home which the Airbnb luckily was located 10 minutes away. This was due to me having surgery and recuperating for at least two weeks here in Houston before I headed back to my hometown of Corpus Christi. Rebecca and Mai are excellent hosts. We loved everything about the Airbnb. Everything was clean. They were very responsive with messages. The area is super nice and friendly. The neighbors all came out and talked to us. Very dog friendly. We will surely be back in the summer and enjoy the beach. Thank you so much for the comfortable stay. It made post surgery all that much better staying at your home. Merry Christmas and happy new year!

We had a great time and could not have been be happier with Mary and Henry’s place.

Such a cozy place and there were so many helpful toiletries and kitchen appliances! My puppy enjoyed the yard as well.

Our family ranging from 5 months to 90 years old had a wonderful stay! Everything was clean and well maintained. We especially enjoyed the kitchen. Thanks again!

This was one of the nicest little homes! Great locations and super clean well kept property I would love to book again!!

My girlfriend and I felt right at home as soon as we walked in the door! We can’t wait to visit again in the future. Highly recommend!

Janis was a phenomenal host and was great at helping us secure a last minute spot for a family vacation. The space was tastefully decorated while maintaining the historic charm of the house. The kitchen was beautiful and equipped with great appliances. The bathrooms were spacious, aesthetically pleasing, and functional - to note one of the showers is a handheld. The beds were firm, but comfortable for all members of my family - I slept on the pull out couch and had no problem! The location of Janis’s home was perfectly situated a short walk from the Seawall and a quick drive to many of the shops and restaurants in Galveston. You can hear the Gulf from the front door and the neighborhood was quiet. We had a lovely stay in this beautiful historical home and look forward to the next time we can book again!!!

The home was extremely nice and clean. Everything that we needed (towels, seasonings, charcoal, cleaning supplies, etc.) was abundantly available. Would love to visit again and was definitely worth the price.

Chad and Sharon’s house is awesome. It was exactly as described and was a great location. The house was very clean and had everything we needed (minus food and drinks). There was even a stocked coffee bar! We would definitely stay at their place again, they are wonderful hosts.

I will definitely be back and be recommending Uyen, cottage to friends and family! Uyen, answered every question and a timely manner! She’s a Superhost!

Great place, good communication with host , and great price!!
