Turtle House

Really enjoyed the stay

Manager's Response

The turtle house was the perfect location for our birthday celebration with family! There was plenty of room for 14 of us (8 adults, 6 children). The master suite upstairs with private balcony is amazing! We spent every night outside on the back deck overlooking the beach - what a beautiful view! You can't beat the location - quiet neighborhood and a very short walk until your feet hit the ocean. We loved our stay!!!

- Plenty of beds, kitchen was outfitted with everything we needed, and proximity to the beach was wonderful. We had a wonderful 3 day stay with our extended family and would definitely rent again.

Turtle House met or exceeded all our expectations. We had our family here over Thanksgiving holiday and totally impressed. As my grandkids put it “this is the best vacation ever.” We would recommend it to anyone. We will definitely return.

We had an amazing stay at the Turtle House. It is perfectly located on a quiet part of the beach and has all the amenities and needs for a family of 9 to stay and have a great time! Would recommend this house to those looking for a relaxing and peaceful beach vacation!

Beautiful clean home! Wonderful for a large group.

Location is excellent - couldn't ask for any better! The views are amazing. There is plenty of room for large group and the kitchen is well stocked for a large family or group. However, this was our third time staying in Turtle House and it was a little disappointing. It seems that the property is not being taken care of as well as it has been in the past - bedding is a bit old and worn looking, tub in second floor bathroom has crack (like foundation of house is settling), handle to toilet in first floor bath was broken, outdoor furniture is broken, and rug is frayed. The place just seemed to have gone down over past year since we stayed last. Overall, house really is wonderful and location is amazing - just needs a little TLC. The person we worked with at rental agency was not as nice as those we have worked with in the past. She was professional and she responded to all of our requests very quickly, so really no complaint there - just wasn't as friendly and nice as those we have worked with in the past. Overall, house was nice and we really enjoyed the weekend. I recommend the house for a fun stay - views and location are great!

Beautiful location and home was accommodating for our needs. A couple small issues: (1) was issued wrong code to get into house and had to wait an hour for maintenance to let us in. (2) we had to go buy batteries to replace the dead ones which powered the touch sensitive faucets in the kitchen before we could use the kitchen sinks. Lastly, we couldn't quite get the third floor to cool properly. However, despite these issues, we had a great stay and weekend at in Galveston.

Right on the Beach
Cute Decor
Lots of room

The house was clean and well-equipped. Plenty of room for our large group, as we were at capacity. Easy, direct access to the beach. Arcade options were great on the rainy days. Also plenty of games and puzzles were available. We opted to use the concierge service and it was a huge help! Management was very responsive to questions. Minor issue of window leaking while raining was addressed quickly. My suggestion for the house would be to repair the dishwasher control panel (it falls off when the door is fully open, but still fully functional) add pot holders and some extra kitchen towels, as well as two bath towels per person instead of one.

We had a great time. It was good to get the family together and the house allowed it to happen. We picked up groceries on the way in to town since we knew that the stores were a distance away. The beach was handy to the house which allowed us to get there easily. The views were great.

We had a great time with our kids and grandchildren. Turtle house was decorated nicely, nice appliances and furnishings. Wonderful views of the beach and ocean. Clean and uncrowded beach.

We have stayed at this house for 2 prom weekends now, the first being 8 years ago! We stayed again this year and it was still as great as we remembered it being. Perfect floorplan for a bunch of teenagers! Great beach access and kitchen/living area nice for a big group.

Turtle House was absolutely perfect for our girls weekend! Location right on the beach is excellent! View from the deck is beautiful! Plenty of room for all of us to relax comfortably. Well stocked kitchen with all we needed to enjoy great meals with a wonderful view. Owner is so kind and accommodating. Hard to find the words to convey just how wonderful the weekend was for all of us. Can’t wait to go back next year!

The house was beautiful and it was great for entertaining kids and adults. Thank You for making this trip a successful and carefree environment.

We had a wonderful time at this house. There was 14 in our family, and the house was very spacious. Kids loved the game room. Just a few steps to the beach was great. All the amenities you need. We wish we could have stayed longer. Everyone had a blast!!!!!

Diana goes over and beyond for you when you rent through her company. She makes your stay so amazing and easy. We love her.

We had a great time, the location was perfect. We loved being on the beach. Ceiling on the 3rd floor needs a patch up job but that didn't stop us from having fun nor was it a problem. Diana was so helpful through out our stay. I appreciate you, Diana! We will be back! Thx Diana & VV-LLC!

We had an amazing time with 4 families and 3 generations. Everyone had a spot to sleep and to eat and relax! Very close to the beach so miss could easily go back and forth without supervision.

Had a great time in this large home with a beautiful view and easy beach access. Outdoor shower was a plus!

It was a great weekend except for the fact that we left 3 pop ups with around 20 chairs and all the kids games neatly stacked on the beach and they were all gone the next morning? Nothing in the book said anything about not leaving our stuff on the beach and there were no signs posted until after we called the city. We watched a city worker post a sign later that morning. Cost me 1000$ to replace some of what we lost.

Wow the house became a home for our large family including teens, young adults, grandparents and the baby. We all loved it. It’ was roomy and spacious enough that we could all cook and eat together for family meals or spread out. The beach is quite close so many of the gang went back and forth there while the Grandparents could watch from the deck. We could spread out and sleep our 11 comfortably. Actually we could have added 6 more. A convenience store is very close. The master is decorated like a ship and we loved it. There was even room for the Grandparents and a couple of the older children to talk and play games without disturbing anyone else.
Wonderful and tremendous place for a getaway that actually felt like a home on the beach!!!

Our family had a great time. It was a beautiful house, very clean, had everything we needed.
Except hot water....there was no hot water we had to warm water for baths. we had a total of 16 ppl trying to bathe and no hot water at ALL.

We came here for military leave with the family. Loved everything about the property and was great !

This house was EVERYTHING!! Plenty of room for everyone with the most beautiful views of the Beach. We had a lot of family members and it was never to crowded. The decor was fabulous. The kitchen was fully stocked and had several bathrooms!!! This house sits right on the beach so you can watch the kiddos from the balcony. Love the spaciousness of each room and absolutely loved the pirate ship theme for the master bedroom!! *The only complaint that I have is when we arrived the air was on 82?!! This is Texas weather so it took A few hours to cool the entire house off. Also, the 10:00 CHECK OUT TIME Is way too early being that your check in time is 3pm. We feel like we didn’t get to enjoy our full 2 days.

It was a great house we really enjoyed it, but didn’t receive everything that was promised in our contract. Our first day we called regarding the TV and Internet service not working and didn’t get any service until our fifth night, “which was our last night”.

Manager's Response

We loved everything about the beautiful beach house and its awesome location. There were ample beds and room enough that the 13 of us were never under each others feet. Comfy beds and linens. I must say that the master is a bit unusual and perhaps a little unsafe to step over the side entrance. Could be a tripping hazard. Fabulous kitchen and dining area where lots of card games were enjoyed and laughter filled the house. Loved the deck where we could watch the young people enjoy the sun, sand and water without having to go their ourselves. (some of us aren't youngsters anymore)LOL Bit pricey but worth it for everyone to have their own bed and beach access. Our only problem was that the temperature inside the house was 82 degrees when we arrived. It was still in the high 70's at 9:00 p.m. upstairs. I called for assistance and got a helpful lady. By next morning the house was completely cooled and we cancelled the a/c work request. Just too much Texas heat for the ac to be programmed that high. We were assured that housekeeping would be notified to lower it so future guests would not have that problem. Thanks again for the use of your awesome beach house.

We had a nice weekend stay here. House is big with lots of room to spread out. Beds were comfortable master bedroom is a little weird with the pirate ship layout was worried someone would trip having the step over when you walk in the room and a door to the restroom would be nice. Everything in the house worked , a/c was cold, we enjoyed sitting on the deck at night with the fire pit.

A wonderful place to stay and very well maintained.

Manager's Response

My family enjoyed the accommodations and the fact that the kids had their own retreat and game room. My husband and I enjoyed the pirate ship master. The deck has a wonderful view. The kitchen had plenty of space for dining and we liked being able to access the pool and dock area on the bay side at the home owner’s access. We agree that there are two kings and one queen. But it’s obvious that the queen is a new mattress and our guests slept comfortably.. The A/C worked great as did the speakers on the deck.

Tthe downstairs for the kids was awesome, there was a Pacman machine and they loved it. Like a real arcade machine. Beach was clean, house had all the amenities. We would rent again!!!

We had a great time on our stay. We had stayed in the turtle house several years ago. This visit was great. All the improvements were great. The out door furniture was awesome.

Fantastic! Turtle House served our large family well, and we had plenty of room to spread out. The beach access is great! The house was clean, and the Realty Executives staff was very friendly and professional.

My family and I had a great time. The property was wonderful and the views was breathtaking. It was a bit out of the way from town but overall I would recommend the property and hope my family and I will get to return soon.

Me and my kids and grand kids had a wonderful stay at the Turtle House. We enjoyed all the space in the house. Very we'll equiped, great beach accessaand the deck is amazing. Only improvements I could recommend would new mattress, replace futons with a bed and service upstairs air conditioner to cool upstairs better. Also WiFi was awesome. I highly recommend the Turtle house. Thanks Jim P

Had a great time and would rent this house again next year.
