This was a 5 star VRBO all the way around. We loved the layout of the house including the open kitchen/living room, the front porch and screened back porch. We also really enjoyed all of the kitchen appliances/gadgets, the recreational equipment made available to us, and the bbq grill. The location was super convenient for getting to the beach or going out to eat or sightsee. The house and yard were also great for for our dog as she had plenty of space. The host was always quick to respond if we had any questions. We will definitely stay here again.

The Blue Pelican is by far one of the best vacation rentals we have ever experienced. The home is incredibly well appointed from a fully stocked kitchen to bicycles and beach gear in the garage. The screened-in back porch is also a treasure. When guests arrive, everything has been considered for an enjoyable stay. I cannot recommend this property enough.

True home away from home

The house was charming and sparkling clean. It had lovely furnishings, and generous amenities. Everything you would need is provided from kitchen utensils, pots and pans to beach gear and bikes. We loved the 2 bed to 2 bath set up as well and the adorable screened porch. We will absolutely stay at The Blue Pelican again and highly recommend it to family and friends.

Amazing Experience

It was our first trip to Galveston. We had such an amazing stay and the property made it that much more enjoyable! It had things we hadn't thought of packing and even things that broke on our drive down. On our last night my kids were already asking when we can plan our next trip to Galveston and telling me they will miss the Blue Pelican. The place made us feel like home. Thank you for a much needed get away that everyone enjoyed!
