It was a last minute change in our stay due to the hurricane damaging the property we originally were supposed to stay at. We are so thankful we found "the blue house" as our 3 year old still refers to it 2 weeks later. Julie was so accommodating and we truly had everything we needed for our family there. They were so kind to get everything set up for us before ojr arrival and it felt like we wrre walking into our home when we arrived. We will definitely be back! ##### Gina V.

Mar 25, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Home Our family of five travelled to Galveston Island for a week of beach time and seclusion. This property offered us exactly that. We were able to get away from the busiest parts of Galveston and focus our attention on beach time, fishing, and kayaking, all while being close enough to downtown Galveston. This home was very well kept and new, and it worked well for our three kids. Mike and Julie were super helpful and welcoming, and the kayaking adventure was an added bonus. Overall, I highly recommend this home! ##### Matt D. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Megan G.

I loved the large bath, very large shower, and farmhouse sink. The kids loved the TVs in every room. My husband read one of the books available on the shelf and I did the puzzle. The best part about our trip was the ease we felt when we arrived, as it was so clean. The owner does the cleaning and meets each renter when they arrive. I loved this rental, have recommended it to friends, and would come again. ##### Megan G. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dawn M. Jul 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family Vacation 2023 We had a very warm welcome. Walked into the house with music playing on the TV and it smelled amazing and very clean. The house was exactly as advertised and conveniently located. Our family had a really good time. Our almost 3 yr old grandson loved the slide (he thought that was just the coolest thing) and the beach toys. This house had all the conveniences of home. The only suggestion I would have is to add blinds or curtains in the living room/dining room. With the summer sun bearing down that part of the house stayed really warm. ##### Dawn M.

Apr 26, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic house, will hopefully be back My family really enjoyed our stay. The house is even nicer than the photos. Our kids loved features on the ground level and all the extra space to play on the property. We were super comfortable and had everything we needed. Only nitpick is having I wish there was a full sized blender instead of a personal sized blender, but it worked for Pina Coladas all the same :) It's in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of space between homes. The quiet location is a catch-22, because access to quick food options are limited, and the smaller beach area did get quite crowded on the weekend. There is a beach across the main road which is too far to walk with kids, and I believe there is no parking at that site. We drove about 8 minutes to a drive up beach access spot that was practically empty on a Friday, but packed on the weekend, so plan accordingly and get out early if you're heading on during the busy season. ##### Michael M.

The house is situated in a nice, quiet subdivision on the bay side of the island. Farm property next door provides a serene view and is a great place to sit and watch the sunrise. Also enjoyed a gorgeous sunset from the little balcony in the bunk bedroom. Screened in porch was nice since the mosquitos were swarming from all the rain. House is clean and well appointed; beds are comfortable. Quick, easy drive to the beach and back. Good communication from the owners, and they worked with us to reschedule when I came down with COVID right before our originally scheduled dates. Really enjoyed our stay! ##### Vanessa S.

The kids stayed busy playing while the adults relaxed. It was close to the beach, quiet, and relaxing. A short drive to all the excitement on the Seawall. We hope to go back next summer! ##### Janis V. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeff H. Jun 13, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect stay! Our group stayed at the place for a quick trip to Galveston and couldn't have been more pleased with the place. It is extremely clean and stocked with everything you may need to get off to a great stay. The place is really nice and the description is exactly what you'll find when you get there. What I would say really sets this place apart from the many other places we have rented over the years, is that it when you get there, it is setup like the hosts are expecting their friends or family. All the basics are there, from nice towels, to laundry detergent and coffee. I have never stayed at a rental that the needs of the guests were so thoughtfully anticipated. The hosts were very communicative and everything was easy. If you are looking at this place, don't think twice about booking, you'll be happy you did! ##### Jeff H.

I took my grandchildren to Galveston for Spring Break. There was plenty of room for everyone. The house is modern and new. The kids (teens) really enjoyed having bikes, balls, etc to play with. There were a few drawbacks. The couches need replacing; they almost have no cushion left. Also the kitchen could have had glass plates instead of plastic. (There were two available, I think) but we needed about six. Maybe it’s just me. I like using glass/ceramic during meals. Other than that, the house has everything you need. The location is a little far from the main tourist attractions. I would stay here again if my grandkids are with me. ##### Andrea L. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### victor h.

Even though it rained most of the time, there was more than enough to keep all of us entertained. Our four kid’s ages range 6-11\. They had a blast with the slide, swings and basketball goal. If it was dry, they would have played volleyball all day too! The kitchen is well stocked and easy to cook in. The beds were comfortable and master shower was devine! We also enjoyed relaxing in the screened in porch. We look forward to returning when the sun is shining so we can enjoy beach also. The owner, Julie, is very responsive and keeps a beautiful, relaxing home. ##### Kat F.

Very clean and complete with everything we needed. We went on walks to the beach, enjoyed the sunsets on the bay on their bikes, grilled BBQ, watched movies. It really felt like home. ##### Maria Y.

The house is so clean and the layout worked perfect for us. Our trip included my family (husband and two kids, 8 and 5) plus my dad. The kids loved the bunk beds, husband and I enjoyed the master bedroom and my dad slept in the guest bedroom with connecting bathroom. The owner was great and so easy to communicate with. The beach was so close and parking was free. We enjoyed our time at the beach, which had less people than further East. This was a great vacation stay and we highly recommend this house. ##### Tamara W. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### O.J. Z.
