Beach Bungalow
The property was as advertised and very spacious. Well furnished and had everything we needed. The weather was crummy so we got to spend way more time inside than we planned and didn’t get to the pool but house was homey and comfy.

Awesome time!
My family and I come to Galveston every summer - it’s usually my sisters and I, our parents, and our younger children. We have stayed at many houses over the years, but this one has been our favorite. Plenty of seating in both the living area and the kitchen. All the appliances we needed were there. The rooms were all comfortable and clean. AC worked perfectly and great wifi! The location to the beach is awesome - a 1 minute drive straight to the beach access point. We also loved that the community pool was close and it was big and nice! We will definitely be back to this property.

House and neighborhood was nice, it was not listed that the neighborhood pool was closed on Tuesdays, it stormed the last day, which was unfortunate in being able to do anything. Overall nice quiet place.

The place was exactly as described and was a great stay. Clean and well maintained, with everything we needed for a fun weekend. So close to a very nice secluded part of the beach. Would 100% stay again.

Great gathering place for Christmas
We enjoyed our time at the beach bungalow and appreciate all the efforts made to make it feel like home away from home. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed, there was plenty of room for everyone to sleep, eat, and relax. We really loved the porch area and beach view. Thanks for a great Christmas vacation home.

We just love the Blue Heron!!!
This was our second year in a row, staying at the blue heron. We just love the location, the house has plenty of dinning seating, plenty of living room seating. We had our wedding this trip on the beach and had tons of family and friends in and out for the wedding preparations and did not feel crowded. This place is just magical and me and my now husband will be using it for years to come to celebrate our anniversary where it all began ❣️

Much needed vacation
My husband and I are hospitality professionals. After a very busy summer at work we needed to get away somewhere with salt water and a beach. This house had the perfect location for just that. The house had enough room to spread out and yet to gather together. The decks had amazing views of the sunrise and the sunset. More than enough linens and kitchen supplies. The host was quick to respond to communications. All in all a great get away!

Annual Trip to Galveston
We make the trip to Galveston every year for national dance competition. Traveling with a large group makes it hard to find a place for all of us. We had plenty of room, quick access to the beach and access to the pool was a nice option as well. Owner was quick to respond to all my questions.

Great place to vacation
Grandparents, kids and grandkids stayed for 4 nights and enjoyed Galveston. The entire house was perfect for us! The kitchen was well stocked, the house was very clean, all rooms were cool (A/C) except for the master bedroom which got direct afternoon sun. We will stay here again when we come with the grands for vacation. Thanks for a wonderul place to stay.
