nice stay

The owner was an excellent host who made our stay an extremely pleasant one. This B&B is in a perfect location only a few blocks from the beach in one direction, and a few blocks from the Historic Strand in the other. PS: Breakfast was amazing!!

One of my friends just got married at The Villa and we decided to book a room to stay and I am so glad we did. Linda, the owner, and her staff made everyone feel so comfortable. After the ceremony, we were able to relax and enjoy the evening with friends. Whether we were inside the cozy living room, or sitting outside amongst the unbelieveable bougainvillea - it felt as though we were visiting an old friend and none of us were ready to go....Lots of antiques, special touches and an overall unique experience you can't get from a chain hotel. Thanks Linda for everything!!!

Linda was such a gracious host and outstanding cook. Our 3 course breakfasts and chocolate covered strawberries were delicious! She helped us plan our days from scheduling a horse and carriage ride with TJ through the historic district, to the ghost tour and recommending restaurants. She even DVR'd my favorite show so I wouldn't miss it! I will most definitely stay here on any future trips to Galveston. The personal touch made this a one of kind experience, get ready to feel pampered!

My husband and I spent just one night at The Villa with Linda, as a break from the city (Houston). And what a find! Linda and her "greeters", Dolly and Taz, are just lovely, the house charming, the breakfast delicious, and our room (Provence) fantastic, especially the jacuzzi bath. We highly recommend this B&B and would definitely go again.

Linda is the owner of The Villa in Galveston, TX. She is gracious and lovely to be around. She made our stay so comfortable and inviting. We plan on going back. I recommend The Villa, Galveston & Linda

My husband and I spent two wonderful nights and just love Linda! What a wonderful person and swell atmosphere for us newlyweds! The chocolate covered strawberries and champagne were perfect too! This was my husbands' first experience at a B&B and he could see why I prefer a B&B any day over a hotel or motel room. Meeting new people from all walks of life over breakfast is a really neat experience. We would stay with Linda again in a heartbeat and will recommend The Villa to all our friends and family.

I had the most wonderful experience at the Villa B&B. Linda was a fabulous hostess! The rooms were unique, the breakfast was delicious and delicately planned, and the four-legged critters were the best door greeters I have ever met! I highly recommend the Villa to anyine heading to Galveston and want to feel like you're still at home with comfort.

We spent two nights at The Villa and found it a great place to stay in Galveston. Linda, the innkeeper was very helpful and provided us with a great breakfast. The location is great, as nothing is very far and you can easily find parking. A trolley stop is just in front of the house. We were in the cheapest room, which has it's own bathroom, but which is not directly attached to the room. This was fine for us, because there are only two more rooms which do have an attached bathroom, so chances are you won't see anyone in the hall. Plus the bathroom has a large shower. So it's a great choice for the budget minded traveller. All in all it was a pleasant stay in a pleasant town.

As newcomers to the B&B experience my husband and I were concerned that we would feel uncomfortable without the anonymity we were used to at large hotel chains. Nothing could have been further from the truth! Linda was wonderful and attentive, she went out of her way to make sure that our stay was a fantastic experience. The room (and Jacuzzi tub) were wonderful and the food – I can’t even begin to describe how wonderful the food was. A three course breakfast has got to be the most luxurious thing in the world. Having never been to Galveston before Linda provided us information on sites and attractions, as well as great places to eat. I can’t wait to go back! Also – her dogs are absolutely adorable (and this is coming from a dedicated cat lover). If other bed and breakfasts are half as wonderful as the Villa, I’ll probably never stay at a chain hotel again. We can wait to bring our daughter down for a long weekend! Thank you Linda!!!!

My girlfriend and I recently stayed at the Villa Bed and Breakfast in Galveston, Texas on February 17 and 18, 2008. We had an extremely positive experience and would most definitely stay there again. The innkeeper Linda and her two delightful little dogs Dolly and Taz are very welcoming and you instantly feel at home. The home has been renovated to modern standards but maintains its historical appeal and charm. There is plenty of free parking to be had in front of the Villa. It is in a great location as we never drove and easily walked to the seawall and downtown from there. . Linda is an amazing cook and her breakfast is truly an experience. Linda is very well suited as the host of a bed and breakfast as she very interested in your life and experiences, but also respects your privacy. Lots of great little touches like a coffee maker outside your room that is timed to provide fresh coffee at 7 a.m. In summary, the Villa provides good value - a first rate stay in Galveston at a reasonable cost.

My husband and I stayed over the weekend to enjoy a romantic getaway. This was a great experience. I definately recommend this B&B. Linda was wonderful! The B&B was decorated w/ beautiful antiques. And I have to say the company of "Taz" and "Dolly" was even more memoriable and special. We will definately visit soon!

My stay at the Villa was an absolute delight. My room was beautifully furnished with quality antiques. I thoroughly enjoyed sitting out on the balcony with my morning coffee and a good book. The private double jacuzzi tub was an outrageously decadent treat. My breakfast proved to be a culinary feast. Sensational Dutch apple pancakes!!!! Linda was a wonderfully friendly innkeeper. If only my stay could have lasted a little longer! The Villa is so close to Galveston's historical landmarks. The famous Strand area is just a couple of minutes away by car. I'll be back for more great Galveston Island hospitality.
