About this property

Located on a beautiful wide beach at the western end of the Bolivar Peninsula, this 3 bedroom, 2 bath beachfront home is perfect for a single family. Enjoy views of cruise ships leaving Galveston Island and the lovely sounds of the waves crashing from the furnished deck! Captain Morgan is located in a quieter area of the peninsula but still only minutes from the stores, restaurants, and night life. You are also just moments away from the beach via the convenient beach access road!

The cute beachy interior of this cabin encompasses a cozy living area, well-appointed kitchen (both regular drip and Keurig coffee makers available), large granite island, and a dining table that is perfect for meals and games. You'll also appreciate the on-site washer and dryer.
With 1100 square feet, the house easily sleeps 8. The first two bedrooms offer one queen bed in each, and the third bedroom has two twin beds. The sleeper sofa adds accommodations for two more.

Captain Morgan has a large yard with room for fun and entertaining, as well as a charcoal grill and an outdoor shower. You will enjoy the privacy and peace of this cabin, and want to return again and again!

Great house very close to the beach

House it beachfront, although walking to the beach takes time so you might be better off driving. The porch is amazing to sit on for eating and hanging out. The house layout is amazing and was clean. Lots of hot water and the kitchen was well furnished. Would stay again!

My family has always loved Captain Morgans, but it needs woek.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family has visited Captain Morgans for the past 5 years, taking turns renting it. We love the location, but we feel the owner really needs to do some maintenance/updating. The living room couches needs new cushions, the beds need new mattresses/pillows, the floors are warped and peeling up, the paint on the walls are chipping, the bathtub drains extremely slow, and the shower curtains are old and dirty, the top deck has splinters (my mother-in-law got a huge splinter in her foot that I spent an hour trying to pull all the pieces out of her foot). We feel for the price of over $3,000 per week, they should be able to do this. We will be considering a new vacation property for next year.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very relaxing stay, sitting on deck listening to the waves. It is a small beach house but was perfect for 5. I do think they should update the couches soon otherwise everything was good.

Great location, cute beach house

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our first time to rent a beach house for the week. Captain Morgan was great! It is located in the first row and you could see the water from the deck. What a view! We were fortunate enough that my sister lives there and we borrowed her golf cart for the week. However it is not a long distance to walk. House was super cute and just right for our family. We did purchase the sheets and towels for the week. If you do that you only need your beach towels. There is plenty of dishes and cookware also. Do bring your own toilet paper, paper towels and trash bags. It is a great house and we hope to be back next summer!

Stunning View

The Captain Morgan Beach House has an excellent view, the sunset and neighborhood is exceptional. Not a Fan of the different Mask on the Walls but if you can get past those it's an excellent rental.

Great location but needs a deep clean, especially during COVID

Location is great and views off the deck are amazing. We were visited by the local skunk on two nights (only brief sightings). Things were definitely quieter during the week. House needs a deep cleaning and we spent the first few hours cleaning, especially during COVID. The pet-friendly property status was evident by the pet hair in one of the bedrooms. We were abruptly woken by all the smoke alarms at 3:00 AM due to some at least one battery that needed replacement. Overall, the problems we experienced were minimal and our stay was great. The size was just right for the five of us and having a beachfront property is worth paying a little more. Bring binoculars to watch all the ships and dolphins.

Not much luck fishing from the surf, but enjoyed watching the skunk visiting the yard at dusk each night! Nice house with great view of the gulf.

Beach celebration

We had an overall great stay. There were 8 of us. We were comfortable. We could sit on the deck and look out to the ocean. Great view. The only negative was no linens. We got the linen service and had plenty of towels and sheets. Everything else is provided.

It was absolutely PERFECT!

We had an awesome time at the Captain Morgan on Crystal Beach March 21-25, 2018. We had 4 adults and three kids and all slept in the wonderfully decorated and maintained bedrooms and enjoyed the beach and the views from the deck! The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need. Just a super short walk around the dunes to the beach. Thank you so much for helping us unwind and re-set - we WILL be back! HIGHLY RECOMMEND - Boliver is such a quaint place to be and everyone is so friendly - we shopped the BIG STORE just down from Swedes after picking up the key for our groceries and hit the Island Liquor store for a few things for the adults ;)

Loved our stay!

This house was a perfect size for 4 adults and 4 kids. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back. The home was very clean. The beach is just a short walk away or a quick drive if you have a lot to tow as we did with 4 kids. I loved sitting on the deck with the amazing view and sounds of the ocean. We are already discussing our next trip back this summer!

Pictures don't do this property justice!!

The pics are very accurate! However, the house is really much cleaner and nicer than it looks online! Everything is in working order. There are PLENTY of pots, pans and utensils for cooking. There is even a great selection of spices to choose from. All the appliances are up to date. Charcoal grill works great too. There is a coffee pot but it is "old school" and you will need filters and coffee grounds. The property is 1st row but the walk to the beach is about 2 to 3 minutes around the dunes. We had a campfire on the beach every night. Kite flying is a must! Bike rental for riding on the beach was fun. Beach access pass for your vehicle is only $10. All the beds are great! 2 queens, 2 sets of bunk beds and a pull out. Stingaree seafood restaurant is really good and reasonably priced but the wait can be a little long.....get there early!! Third Coast Coffee needs to be visited, if you are a coffee drinker. The grocery store is about 5 miles from this location and they have EVERYTHING you need there. It is a little higher priced but reasonable. When we arrived to check in there was a little mix-up on the dates we booked with Swede's but they were very understanding and fixed the issue. We will DEFINITELY stay at this property again!!
