I got this house for the pool and by the bay. The pool wasn't clean and no one got what they came for the wholeweekend.. The pool guy never came out and the family left disappointed and could have done this at home.

We have been visiting Galveston for many years. Our family normally stays front row on the beach. We decided to mix it up this year & stay on the bay. We are super glad we did. The kids enjoyed swimming in the private pool & paddle boarding on the bay & said they preferred the bay over the beach. Needless to say we were pleasantly surprised. The house was very nice & had plenty of room for everyone. We had an amazing time & will definitely be coming back...

There is no inside stairwell between the floors. You must go outside to get to the bedrooms downstairs. This is not a good arrangement for families with young children.Pool deck had pile of garbage and dozen of beer bottle caps alaying around the pool. Had to call twice to get someone to show up to clean the mess-up.

Relaxing getaway with family and friends

The house had plenty of space for several adults. The large deck was perfect for group meals and morning coffee. The private pool was more of an asset than I anticipated. Fishing was very good in this location.

We enjoyed Luna Mar! The property was lovely and the amenities were as stated. Be aware the "6th" bedroom is really just a small area with a set of bunk beds but we made it work. The pool was clean and the neighbors were friendly. We would book again!

Awesome place to stay

We have rented this home a couple of times now. We always have a great time there fishing. The home does need some work done to it to fix it up. The washer and dryer did not work this time around. Other than that it is a great place to stay with your family and friends. Plenty of room for the whole family to fish and is in a great location for fishing. We will be staying there again.

This property met our wants for a canal house with a private pool. The general cleanliness--the bathrooms, kitchen, linens were all good. The outside of the house needs some maintenance. This property is new to Ryson and I am sure that they will maintain it. We have rented with Ryson before and have always been satisfied with them. This house had a key box, so check in and check out was easy.

Every thing was good. The door knobs and doors need to be replaced. There is a spot on the dock that needs to be repaired. I think there is a board that has broken underneath and that could be an issue. The master bathroom electricity wasn’t working. We called for two days and I emailed. We didn’t get a response until Tuesday. So we were not happy about that.

Great Memories

We all had such great fun! Everything we needed was there. It had something for everyone; quiet space to read or work, games for the rainy periods, pool, quick beach access and plenty of fishing space. Bait and Ice were a quick few blocks away and the area was quiet. The underwater lights weren't working this time, but the top light was good for evening fishing. Everyone had a great time and we plan to return.

Overall good stay

The house itself was a nice place. Could use some updating but overall a cute place. I wish the house would have had a few more things. There were plenty of kitchen utensils. Two trash bags for 11 people for 4 days didn’t seem like enough. It would have been nice if they had some basic cooking spices. The pool was great! Overall, I would stay here again
