WARNINGS: It is very important to know that all the dunes and bushes on the island are the poisonous snakes’ habitats. This has been known in Galveston for many years back. Please stay off the dunes and bushes. Stay on the dune walkover to get to the beach. Always watch your steps when you walk on grasses or the walkover. If you encounter them, the best advice from the experts is turn around and walk away.
BUGS: ants, mosquitoes, chiggers, palmetto bugs, cockroaches, silverfishes, spiders, love bugs, big bugs, small bugs, tiny bugs, and all kinds of bugs are part of Galveston's life. Because the house is in the coastal region with wetlands and open ditches surrounding.
The house has been sprayed quarterly and annually by our local pest control company. Per our pest control company, the spraying does not prevent them from crawling or flying in during the open and close of getting in and out of the house. However, if they do get in, they won't survive. You might see them unexpectedly during your stay.
Do not leave the door open, close it immediately after use, turn off the outside lights at the doorways also help to minimize them from getting inside. Because lights attract bugs and mosquitoes. Please do not bring food, snacks, candy into the bedrooms to prevent ants. Please do not leave food crumbs on the floor, inside the house will attract cockroaches and ants, or the ground floor outside where the picnic tables will attract bugs, ants, and wild animals such as snakes...

This house is in quiet, relaxing setting with beautiful views of the bay on all sides. Our group of 7 adults and 5 children enjoyed relaxing on the deck, playing on the sandy beach area, and having plenty of space for everyone. Mai was very helpful and provided lots of good information!
This property was perfect for our family of 7 young children and seven adults. Gorgeous views and sunset and great pools, including lazy river that was perfect for young children.
This is the perfect home for our large family! Not only is the house beautiful, but the view of the bay is also breathtaking. We definitely will be back as we enjoyed the low-key relaxing, the game room and hanging out on the balconies. Maj and Tom where awesome to work with !

Dear Patsy,
THANK YOU, THANK YOU,and again thank you for your wonderful words. Love your words, "BEST VRBO RENTAL!! I must frame those words. LOL. Come back to see us.
Best,
Mai/ Galveston Luxury Vacation Rentals Team
The property was well kept. Very clean, full service kitchen. I was well received. The property owner contacted me doing my stay to make sure I had an enjoyable weekend. Also, sent me a map of the beach locations and rentals if needed, I would stay here again when I need some R&R
The house was perfect! We were less than a mile from the club house, had access to the bay. House was very well maintained. Downstairs area was great. Wish we could have stayed longer. Communication with the host was easy.
The house was perfect for our family of nine people (7 adults & 2 children)to celebrate my mother’s 80th birthday. She loved having an elevator. The house is beautifully decorated with lots of space for gathering. We loved watching the sunset from the deck. We also loved the secluded location, but if you are planning on eating in Galveston be aware that it is a bit of a drive. We did not utilize the beach club, but went to the public beach instead.
First stay at this house and third time at the Pointe West community. The house had plenty of rooms and beds for our family of 13. Love the layout and decor. The pictures were very accurate.
Even prettier than the photos! Our extended family of 12 enjoyed the home very much. Everything was very clean and well cared for. We were in great hands with Mai who kept in touch with us to make sure we had everything we needed. Would absolutely stay here again next time we are in town!

This house is even better than the photographs. Perfect for our large group of 8 adults and 5 kids for a Thanksgiving get away. Well appointed kitchen, nice hot tub and even a game room to occupy the kids. Host even checked in with us by email to make sure we had everything we needed Will rent this house again.

Heaven on Bay was such a beautiful property! Clean, comfortable and would recommend! We had 9 children and 7 adults and never felt overcrowded. We rented golf carts to get us to and from the beach.
We had the most incredible stay at this beach house! Traveling with nine kids is no small task, but this home had absolutely everything we could have possibly needed and more. From the spacious, well-thought-out layout to the fully stocked amenities, it made our trip both relaxing and fun.The location was perfect—steps from the beach and with full access to the resort, which kept the kids entertained for hours with games and activities. Everyone had space to spread out, yet we could all come together in the beautiful common areas to enjoy meals and time as a family.The house itself was spotless, comfortable, and designed with families in mind. Every detail was thought of, which made it feel like a true home away from home.Our stay was phenomenal, and we made memories that will last a lifetime. We can’t wait to come back!
Our family of 13 (grandparents, parents and grandchildren) had the most amazing time here! House is more beautiful than the pictures! Mai is the best host and is always there to offer suggestions and help if needed! You really can’t ask for a better house. One side is on the bay and the beach and pool club is a short ride away. Recommend highly!
Relaxing weekend and quality time with family and friends
This house was perfect get away for the weekend. We had a wonderful time with friends and family. This house has everything you can just imagine and mostly our kids enjoyed the hot tub and the ping pong table. We bbq and later did s’mores. We also got the access to the pool and beach club that was very much worth it. I would definitely want to come back again 😀
Our extended family got together to celebrate one of our brothers' 50th birthday and Labor Day. The house is amazing—beautiful location, beautiful house, beautifully taken care of and equipped. The beach club is great and they definitely have the best-cared-for beach in Galveston. And Mai was super helpful, responsive, and thorough in making sure we had a great stay. Book it now—you won't regret it.
The 14 occupants spanned 3 generations from three different states. There was enough space for everyone, and the perfect setting to enjoy fellowship all week long. We took advantage of the crabbing, the games, the firepit, we used it ALL. We were disappointed that the hottub only worked one night, but we thoroughly enjoyed our time there.

Dear Barbara,
Thank you so much for taking the time to write these beautiful words. So happy that you ‘thoroughly enjoyed our time there.’
I was also disappointed that the heater of the tub was broken during your stay, and even worse it happened on Thanksgiving Day after you checked in on Sunday earlier of the week.
We, Tom and I, both together immediately called our serviceman 3 times but unfortunately, we could only leave him a message.
He did come back later to fix it the following week.
Again, thank you so much.

This was the most beautiful house have stayed in and we have stayed in a lot of homes in Galveston. The best part of our vacation other than our family was the owner. Mai is the most attentive owner we have ever had the pleasure of working with and just because of her we would rent that property again. She was amazingly helpful in every way and checked in on us just to see if we were having a great time or if we needed anything. This was by far a 10 Star vacation and 10 Star ownership. Thank you Mai for everything.

Dear Geri,
Thank you so much for your beautiful and kind words. We kept reading your words over, and smiling at each other.
"...WE WOULD RENT IT AGAIN..." that says it all.
Would love to have you and your family again in a heartbeat.

Mai & Tom/. Galveston Luxury Vacation Rentals
Honestly this sums it up perfectly. This is our 3rd stay at Heaven on the Bay with the same family groups! We honestly love everything about the property! Open spaces for all to hang and visit. Bunk and play room to keep the kids occupied! Each bedroom is large enough for each of us and the extra twin bed room is now great for the 13 year old of the group. The property is a quick ride to the beach club and beach and only 30 minutes into downtown Galveston. We are already talking about next summer to make sure we book again!
This home is the nicest and cleanest vacation home we have ever stayed in. Mai was so amazing at communication from the moment we booked the home until we checked out. You cannot beat this location. Bay on one side and the amazing beach club and beach on the other. The home is GORGEOUS and has everything you could need! They literally thought of everything from beach gear to crabbing supplies. The kids rooms were PERFECT for a large group. All of the master bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious, nicely decorated and clean. I cannot recommend this home more highly! We will definitely be back again!

Gorgeous house and enough room for everyone. House layout is perfect to escape in case rest in needed. All amenities are top notch. Mai and Tom are beyond helpful and informative, not a single glitch in the entire process. We will definitely be staying here again. We had 3 toddlers so the room with the great bunk beds was perfect. House is on the far west side of the island to keep in mind, and no elevator. Quite a few steps leading to the front door but once you arrive and see the view of bay all is forgotten. Heaven on the Bay is the place to stay!

Truly Heaven on the Bay
We stayed here for a ladies retreat weekend. It was PERFECT. The layout is ideal for any group and has ample areas for together time as well as areas to spread out. The decor is impeccable. You will feel like you stepped into a design magazine. Mai and Tom are the best hosts and I have utilized many rental properties. Their customer service is off the chart. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat. If you're looking for a beautiful home, away from the crowds, with all the special fixings this is your home! Did I mention shuffleboard, foosball and air hockey too?!?!

Elegant Beach Home with Great Views
We were the first families to stay at this property and found it to be extremely elegant, spacious, well-equipped, clean and warm. The bay views are incredible and the house sits in a quiet area (of an already quiet Point West). Everything has been considered in the furnishing of this home - the kitchen is particularly well equipped for cooking large meals and general hospitality. The hot tub, propane BBQ, beach chairs and wagon are a particularly nice touch. The kids loved the upstairs bedrooms and the game and Netflix equipped TVs in every room. The adults didn't see them, at some points, for several, wonderful hours :). Three moderately sized families can easily stay at this property and have ample space/privacy. Really a fantastic getaway.
