It’s a cute place. Lots of stairs to get up to the loft. It was just me and my adult daughter. We had a great time. Walking distance to the strand. I would stay here again if the need arises.

Couples Secret Getaway

This property is just as it is explained it had everything we needed. It may not be on the beach however, this spot was in a great location and within walking distance to the strand, I think 2 blocks. Awesome place for couples who are looking for a getaway, just for themselves. Cozy, fun, convenient and comfortable.

Perfect for our overnight stay before our cruise.

Our less than 5 rating is a reflection of: 1. getting errors in the VRBO app & email links when trying to contact BeachBox and 2. Electrical outlet only at the kitchen and bathroom counters and 3. Issue one key on the keypad to enter the building.

Cozy place to stay

Loved this little cozy spot! The pictures look exactly like the property. We stay in Galveston often and this is by far the most convenient location! The apartment had everything we needed for a 2 stay night stay. What to expect – safe area, historic property, street parking. You will access into the building next to downstairs business’s with stairs that lead up to your loft. If you are looking for a fun, relaxed spot, I’d recommend this place!

The stay was great but....

It was great but not advisable for senior citizens. To get to the apartment we had to go straight up a flight of 20 stairs. It was hard for two ladies in their 70s to get their luggage up and down the stairs, otherwise everything was great with the place. Street parking was tough because it is in a 2 hour limited parking street.

Last Minute Booking

We were having a terrible time at a local "big resort" and wanted to salvage/finish our vacation elsewhere. Looked on vrbo and found the perfect place for myself and 2 girls. Super cute little loft. Love the Strand area, so this was any easy choice. Just as described. Easy parking in front, walk to stores and restaurants. Only downside was the amount of stairs. We had a lot of luggage. Other than that we highly recommend!

Bigger than the photos appear

I picked the BeachBox Vrbo based on the pics on my phone. I thought it would be smaller. Think studio apartment with a nice, big shower. The host was also helpful when we wanted to extend our stay. All around exceeded all of our expectations and gave us a cozy home base while we toured around Galveston
