7 beds-3BR/3.5BA/2 car garage-Montrose/River Oaks
Thanks for a very comfortable stay @ your Airbnb. Would recommend it to anyone who visits Houston.The place is ideally located, within walking distance of the restaurants and shops. Having a Garage and laundry facility was super helpful . Trent is very responsive. We had a plumbing issue. Trent fixed it at the earliest. Thank you Trent for an enjoyable experience.

Diamond Beach 606: A Bird's Eye View
Great place for two families with toddlers to spend a long weekend! The view from the balcony was great, and the pool and the lazy river were a ton of fun. The room itself was good for a long weekend, but it might have felt a little cramped if the stay was much longer than that. Overall, we really enjoyed this place and will definitely consider it for our next trip to Galveston!

PEACEFUL space w/ great Gulf views at the Dawn!
We stayed here for our 5th anniversary and loved it so much we came back for our 6th!

Cozy & Updated, W/D in condo, Dog Friendly!
Great Condo!!! Great location… ocean across the street. 3 pools and a hot tub- all areas well maintained. The condo was so cute and very comfortable- well stocked with necessities and more.

Beachfront 5BR | Game Room, Hot Tub, Mini Golf
Our stay here was AMAZING. Perfect for larger groups — so much space & may I add how beautiful the layout of this house was! It’s right along the water so the views were impeccable. George was so helping & responded quickly when I had questions during our stay. Will definitely be booking again soon!

Charming Texas House with Private Pool Oasis
I had an amazing experience at this Airbnb! From the moment I arrived, everything exceeded my expectations. The place was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay. The host was outstanding—friendly, responsive, and genuinely committed to making sure I had a great visit. The location was perfect—close to everything I needed, yet quiet and peaceful for a good night’s sleep. I couldn’t have asked for a better home away from home. I’ll definitely be booking here again the next time I’m in the area!

Beachfront Home Stocked for Fun
loved our stay. the house easily accommodated 3 generations with different interests. the bedrooms were a good size and the open living/dining area made it easy to gather. the hot tub was a huge hit with everyone and the outdoor shower made it easy to get the sand off. Great house!

Seaside Retreat Hot Tub Oceanview Secluded Beach
Our family had a great, relaxing time at Mary's place. Easy beach access, easy driving access. The provided beach stuff really made a difference for our kids. Would happily stay here again!

1876 Governor Lubbock House, Tank Pool/2 Masters!
Wow! What an incredible place and an incredible host. We've stayed at over 30 Airbnbs and this is the only host that has gone this above and beyond - stocking the kitchen in anticipation of our Thanksgiving feast, a doggie basket with toys for our pups, a gorgeous pecan dessert and yummy pasta/sauce on the kitchen table, a zoom call to welcome us and to find out what else we needed (she ordered us more kitchen utensils & a fan from Target). The home feels like a home. Super clean, lots of character - high ceilings, lovely woodwork, lots of light, a sweet fully fenced in yard, and large comfy bedrooms. There are two bathrooms but everyone ends up using 1 upstairs as their main bathroom since it's the one with a shower - not an issue for us just FYI. The neighborhood is super walkable - so many gorgeous homes on every block. Easy to get to the Strand, beach and Broadway. Two thumbs way up for people with or without dogs! Simply amazing. Thanks Ana!

Lone Star- Pet-Friendly CLEAN Tiny House on Farm
The location was beautiful, peaceful & relaxing. We have never used a roku TV before so I had to message Leigh Ann & Rocky. They responded quickly & were very helpful. They were also able to help me out with a kennel for my dog for a day. This was the 1st air bnb we have ever stayed at, and boy are we glad we did! Highly recommend this location. So nice to be able to hang out on a porch & let our dog play in the yard all day every day. Definitely beat being couped up in a hotel for a week.

Beautiful large Beach Front House
This place was great! Fantastic layout, great location, and all around a fantastic stay.

The Phoenician by the Sea
Great communication A+++

The Vista of Palm Beach - dog-friendly large house
After our original rental was not ready for us, Kevin and Katerina's place was open and they accepted our request and had us settled in very promptly. We were very grateful! And the property was perfect for our vacation to begin with. High praise here!

The Pelican Cove | 2 Blocks From Beach | Pets OK
My family and I had a wonderful time staying at Edgar’s home! The location was perfect—just a quick 4-minute walk to the beach, which made it so easy for us to go back and forth throughout the day. The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. We especially loved the beautiful backyard—it was the perfect spot to relax and enjoy some family time. Edgar was a great host, and we’d definitely love to stay here again. Highly recommend!

Dwtn Houston-Luxury Home Business/Couples Retreat
Great place to stay. Felt right at home. Beautiful home and gated yard, which was great for our dog. The owner even had extra things for us when we arrived which was so sweet. We will definitely be staying there again when we come back to Houston.

Petite Heights Home!
Host was great. Communicated quickly and made the process seamless. This home is close to A LOT of shops and restaurants. It also has a detached fenced area where dogs can play. It is also located in a very beautiful and quiet neighborhood. We felt safe the whole time we were there. I would highly recommend it.
Family-friendly home rentals with a pool

Great condo on beach.
Clean and affordable condo right across the street from the beach. Within walking distance to many restaurants and attractions.

Gulf Front 3rd Fl - Babe's Beach & Pool & Balcony
This place was perfect for a weekend getaway. Check in was easy and the view from the balcony was incredible.

CLEAN! SPACIOUS, fast Wifi, 7min Walk to Beach
We originally got the house for summer 2024 but the hurricane burlin had ruined it and we had to leave after just one night and Gloria was very understanding and professional and allowed us to reschedule for another time. We recently stayed there and continued our stay there and everything was just as we expected, everything clean, everything we needed to cook with was there, the patio was awesome to sit on day and night. She even recommended a hidden spot to see some peacocks and it was a fun adventure. Overall, you won’t regret the stay there!!! 10/10 highly recommended

Your Home Near the Shore
Nice place to stay around the area, it’s peaceful and protected by a nearby police station. Kemah board walk is really close, recommend staying here for activity.

Lodgeur | Hip & stylish modern 1BR loft | Midtown
Our stay for work at Lodgeur was great! Clean apartment, well equipped kitchen and nice bathroom. Overall we recommend this location!

2Bedroom Medical Center Location NRG Stadium View.
The apartment was so nice. We loved the location. It was 10 minutes to MD Anderson. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was really nice. Loved the island in the kitchen. The bathtub was so big and nice in the main bath. Would definitely recommend. The pool was beautiful. The pool table on the third floor the whole room was a great space to relax in.

Laid-back Beach House w/ hot tub, Gulf views
Excellent stay-we rent a beach house for our five sons and families every summer-this was the best. Very responsive, attentive host. Very accommodating. Complete kitchen with large pots and skillets for a large group-especially appreciated the griddle and crock pot. Plenty of silverware, dishes, and cups for a large group. Plenty of towels-not just bath, but also beach towels! Great location-just walk across the street to the beach. Loved the beach toys for the kids and even a rake for the seaweed. Three bathrooms AND an outdoor shower! Two downstairs bedrooms were great for one son with a disability and one couple needing quiet from the baby. Lots of games to play and even books to read. Parking was amazing- driveway makes it so no one was boxed in. We really recommend Lucky's Lookout.

Galleria Area/River Oaks Apartment
Absolutely amazing stay! The host was incredibly responsive and helpful, and the location couldn’t have been better. I highly recommend this spot — you won’t be disappointe
