Just for the record i’m coming back! LOL. This home is the epitome of what my wife wanted in her dream beach home so it’s safe to say she’s been inspired. Some day, some day soon. Thank you guys so much. The house had EVERYTHING! Never did I feel away from home, everything my wife asked for we found and that just the kitchen. The rest of the home had the decor exactly how my wife wished it… the irony is we stumbled upon the home while in Galveston and got inspired to suddenly get a home for a much needed getaway. I do intend to pay the fees for the hot tub, my apologies my boys got a bit too excited too soon. Please let us know if we can be of any assistance to you as well if ever anything is needed for your home. *** Also, the extra day came in clutch! Thanks!!!***
