Host, amenities, location and family home with everything you need. We had a wonderful trip, plenty of room for the family. A great trip the house and host were the best, our family had a great time and will definitely book again.
Went for fishing on canal and adjacent pier and for shrimp festival. House is perfect, very clean and most accommodating place we ever stayed. We will definitely stay again.
Great place for a family vaca! My grandkids loved the place. Very comfortable stay. The owner was very nice and easy to reach if you need anything. We will be back next year. .
The house was beautiful loved looking at all the art, loved the deck overlooking the bay, kids really enjoyed swimming in the canal, glad they had boogie boards and float we could use! Overall had a wonderful weekend before school started!

The house was beautiful and very spacious. The owner was extremely helpful with check in and tips for the weekend. We will definitely book this house again.
The location was pretty far from Galveston but the neighborhood was awesome! Everything was as stated in the description and Verena was very helpful and responsive. Loved the marina nearby and also loved the different things we had access to!!! Would recommend this place to anyone was a great stay!!
House is by far the nicest house we’ve ever stayed in. It was clean, enjoyed the beautiful and interesting decorations they have. The beds are comfy, kitchen well stocked, and the location was great for fishing. The host Verena was very helpful and ensured that we will enjoy our stay there. She’s probably the most accommodating, nicest host I’ll ever encounter. I would recommend this property and you will have no regrets. Thank you Verena!!
Absolute the best bay house we have rented in the last 15 years. House is stunning! Lots of little extras that made our stay extra special. Ex. Crab traps, yard games, fully stocked kitchen, ice machine. We will never book any other house! Communication was excellent!
We have stayed in Sea Isle so many places over the years. I cannot overemphasize how amazing this property was, down to every detail. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen fully stocked, and there are so many thoughtful amenities in this beautiful house. The hosts are gems, and you will not be sorry if you pick here for a getaway.
Absolutely amazing property and location. There are 6 of us who have been friends for 40 years and we were looking for a getaway and access to boat dock for bay fishing. This well maintained and furnished property was everything we could ask for and then some. Highly recommend! Great owner and check in.
We had an amazing time at this beautiful property. The host went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and relaxing. This is by far the nicest vrbo property we have ever stayed at. The house feels huge with quality furnishings through out the house and it is decorated beautifully. We had such a positive experience with the host and the property that we can't think of one negative thing to say about it. This will be our Sea Isle go to place from now on
Love the house and the location. It had everything and more that you could need for your stay. Communication with the owner was excellent. Highly recommend.
We loved the house, location was excellent!
We enjoyed fishing at the house and at the pier down the street. We feel like the house looks much better in person than the pictures online
We will definitely return!
We loved our recent stay at this property! The pictures don't do the home justice. It's so charming, and you just feel right at home. We love to cook and the kitchen was so accommodating. The deck downstairs is nice and large, and the location to the pier was perfect for fishing and crabbing. We are looking forward to our next visit!
Annual family beach vacation first time since my husband's stroke. The elevator and house were wheelchair accessible. The master shower is roll in. My family loved fishing and hanging out under the house. The marina/restaurant/ bar are very convenient. And super easy accesdaccpess to the beach. Th beach.
Great property and location. The owner was very attentive and swift with responding if I had some questions. In my opinion, pics didn’t do justice for this place. Although it still looked nice, I believe it was better in person. I definitely wouldn’t mind staying here again. Thank you.
As a former beach house rental owner, I am conscious of what it takes to provide a memorable experience for our guests. In this case, the owners have gone above and beyond all expectations in sharing their home with others.
The home is beautifully decorated and equipped, the kitchen is worthy of the finest gourmet. Five Stars all around.
We've rented several places along the Texas Coast. This is the best home we have rented. My sister, brother-in-law, sister's granddaughter visiting from L.A. stayed with us. Everyone had a great time. I told friends and sent pictures and several wished they had been there :). Roomy, clean, so many extras, great cooking space, bedrooms very comfortable, ... too much to write about. But don't crowd this place because we want it to be available when we return ;)
