I can't express how much we enjoyed this beach house! It had everything we needed and was perfectly able to accommodate not just the 3 adults, but also the 7 kids with us! It had exceptional views of the beach, and the walk down to it was short and sweet. 100% would recommend and would stay again in the future.

So great to hear you enjoyed your stay so much, Deborah! Thank you again for staying with us!
This property was in a perfect location and very comfortable for my family of 10, during our visit to Galveston this July. In particular, all the beach amenities were a huge bonus, making it so much easier to travel a bit lighter. We would definitely stay here again.

The golf cart is a great addition so that you don’t have to haul your beach gear on foot.

Thank you for your incredibly kind review, Hannah! So glad you and your family had such a wonderful stay! Come back any time!
The Blue Pelican is a beautiful home with a lot of nice features, excellent a/c, rooms, and golf cart to use to get back and forth to the beach. The host is very responsive and accommodating. I give this place 10 stars.
Not much time but honestly the property manager was , kind, friendly and always easy to reach. She even sugested to us excellent restaraunt choices and we came back in 2 weekends just to have lunch in one of the places she suggested. Great food. The golf cart was a fun way to get around and explore and the neighborhood was like the louse, beautiful clean and quiet.

Thank you! So glad you enjoyed staying in the home and being able to get around with the golf cart! You're welcome back any time.
Beautiful home with easy access to a private beach! Christy was a wonderful host. Very quick to respond, friendly and accommodating! Friendly neighbors in a quiet neighborhood. Away from the noise of the other beaches, but a short drive to all the action. The golf cart and beach chairs/umbrella were a great bonus. We will definitely book again.

Thanks again for staying with us, Charity! We enjoyed having you!
What a great stay. Ocean views all around, wrap around porch was perfect for fresh ocean air and catching sunsets, plenty of space for our family (with rooms to spare) and a large and charming fenced yard for our beach-loving pup. Was quiet and we walked to the beach everyday. Kids loved the golf cart, husband probably liked it most. Just a really great set up for a beach getaway. Definitely recommend!
Staying at the Blue Pelican was perfect. Once a year I come to Galveston to visit my son. I have stayed at a different VRBO each time searching for the perfect combination of location plus coziness of house. The Blue Pelican sits on the top of my list. Host is very responsive as well.

Thank you for this incredibly kind review, Lauri! It was a joy to have you and if it works out we'd love to have you back on your next visit to see your son!
We really enjoyed staying at this house. We loved the location and the golf cart was great to get all the gear to and from the beach. The house was clean and everything worked well. Beds are comfortable. Christy is really easy to talk with if yiu have any concerns. We had such a great time we were going to book again over Thanksgiving if it wasn't already booked.

About the host
Hosted by Christy
Hi there! I am a wife and mother of 3 littles who LOVE the beach! We are excited to have a beach home to visit and to share with guests. We hope that you love it as much as we do! While we currently live in Indiana, my husband used to live in Houston and loves all things Texas!
Why they chose this property
As soon as I saw the pictures of this property, I fell in love. The neighborhood is one of the best on the island and the lot is so private with unobstructed views, and so close to the beach! The octagon shape and atrium/skylight makes it unique and fun. We are so happy to have this peaceful escape from busy life.
What makes this property unique
While it only takes 5 minutes to walk to the private beach, the golf cart comes in handy if anyone needs some extra assistance getting around. And the wrap around porch on two levels provide wonderful views of the ocean from each room and bedroom.
