We had a great time with 2 families and 2 couples (13 total). We had enough room to spread out and be together as well. Location to the beach was really nice. I definitely recommend the cart because it makes it so convenient to get back and forth. The host was always helpful if we needed anything. It was our first time to Galveston and everyone had a great experience.

Jeff & Jamie’s place is exactly as represented in pictures. It is spacious and beautifully decorated. The 2nd floor den is a great addition for a large family gathering. The house is completely stocked with everything thing that you need. Most of all Jamie is very responsive and provides helpful information. Renting the golf cart adds more convenience and is an added bonus for getting all your stuff to the beach. I highly recommend Sandcastle l! We will definitely come back!

This home was perfect! We had 16 individuals staying in the home, and due to the size of the house it never felt crowded. The views were great and different level decks gave ample room to go out and enjoy them. You do have to walk up a series of stairs to get in and out of the home, but it made for a good laugh getting luggage up and down. The home was very clean and equipped with everything you would need. Jeff was great and very helpful! Would recommend this home to anyone!

I can’t say enough GREAT things about this AWESOME place!!! It was perfect from the minute we drove up! EASY to get into, and was so welcoming!(Even had a gift basket waiting for us!)The house was spotless clean, the rooms were big, lot’s of sitting area in the kitchen, in the main living area and on the deck! The kitchen was well stocked, EVERYTHING you need for cooking/hosting for a large group! Big driveway for all our cars! Great views of the Gulf from so many rooms and HUGE decks. Game room upstairs was awesome too! Short walk to the beach. They have a golf cart you can rent, we didn’t because the weather wasn’t the best for the beach, but I would totally rent it in the summer. We had a hiccup that wasn’t even a hiccup because Jeff/Jamie were on it immediately!!! The only reason I am mentioning it is to show how on top of it they are with their property. We rent through Airbnb/Vrbo a lot and I have to say, Jeff/Jamie are tops when it comes to hosts! Would love to come back!
