EXTENDED STAYS
Monthly rentals are considered in the off-season - Winter Texans, snowbirds, retirees, corporate stays, medical professionals, university students and plant workers are welcome. Extended stays or monthly rentals require a stay of 30+ nights, and these reservations are tax exempt. This is an immediate savings of 15%!

Extended stay reservations may not be placed online, but a Ryson Vacation Planner would love to answer any questions you may have and help you reserve your extended stay.

Its a nice house at a great location. However, the cost of the rental with the lack of simple amenities would have me tell friends and family that they should stay elsewhere.

We survived hurricanes Beryl!! Great home, so we decided to weather the storm. According to the locals the East side is less likely to flood and they were correct. Open concept main floor made for great family time. Large decks and patios. Big tv and plenty of seating area to gather. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook in. The bunk room downstairs was perfect for the kids. It has its own bathroom. The main floor also has a 1/2 bath for guests or for those who didn’t want to go upstairs. The three bedrooms upstairs were comfortable. The master suite has a great bathroom and deck. All rooms had great closets. Hardwoods throughout the house. Cold air conditioning! Just clean and welcoming. Close enough to get to everything and just far enough to escape traffic and crowds. The gated community limited access and thus, the neighborhood was peaceful and quiet. We lost power due to the storm and had to cut of trip short, but will definitely comeback should our travels take us to Galveston again.

Outstanding: Floorplan Decks Natural lighting Kitchen Storage space Comfortable, quiet rooms/beds, even the bunk beds! Immaculately cleaned before we arrived. Nice neighborhood Issues: Ice maker didn't work the entire time we were there. They did put in a work order for it We only had 3 SUVs among us but you'd have trouble getting 4 vehicles on the driveway if you did unless that are smaller cars

Bring your own toilet paper as most of the bathroom only came with one roll and we were there a week. Also bring trash bags as there was no extras. Oh and bug spray because the mosquitoes are very affectionate. Lastly get the code to the beach pier as we didn’t have it. Otherwise it was a beautiful home and we truly enjoyed our stay.

The house and location were great! There were a few things that could make a house at this price point better: the outdoor shower does not work- we were not able to get it to turn on so we could only use the hose to wash off sand after being at the beach which wasn’t ideal. There was also very little outdoor appeal- we would’ve liked to spend more time outside at the house but there was only a table and chairs. It would’ve been nice to have a hammock, swing, etc. to be able to enjoy being beachfront. There was also no access to any beach “toys” compared to other properties we’ve stayed at in the area.
