Perfect Beach Vacation Spot

The house is great and in a great location - easy walk to the beach with small children, quiet neighborhood, and a wonderful (uncrowded) section of the beach. The owner is excellent with communication and we would highly recommend to anyone, especially those who want to be an easy drive to the "action" of the seawall/pleasure pier/downtown areas while enjoying a quieter low-key beach experience.

My wife and I brought our kids for a short getaway Every aspect of our stay was excellent. The property was incredible, with a very short walk to the beach. Rich was there every step of the way answering any questions we had, with quick responses. I would definitely recommend this property, and know that Rich will take any stress out of the stay.

Wonderful property just a short walk to the beach with all the essentials plus beach chairs, toys and a wagon to haul all your things. Kitchen has everything one could need. Rich was a superb host.

Perfect stay!

We stayed with my 9 month old, 3 year old and mother in law. The house was a great location…the beach was just a few houses down the street and it was quiet and clean. The house itself was the perfect combo of vacation home cozy and hotel cleanse felt completely at home. We cooked at the house each day and the kitchen was well stocked with utensils. If we make it back to Galveston, we’ll be looking up the blue pearl!

Excellent Stay

Excellent all the way around. Rich's communication was first rate and extremely accomodating. The house itself was in great condition and we really enjoyed it. Walk to the beach is very short and the beach itself was sparsely populated so we really had it to ourselves. I know there have been some comments on locking the front/back doors, but if you follow the instructions, it's quite easy to lock. One of the better VRBO's we've stayed at. Loved it!

Incredible place

What an incredible place. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the home was beautiful. Somethings that stand out were: 1) within 100yrds or so of the beach. The beach is far enough away from hustle and bustle of Galveston that the beach almost feels private. Despite being there during Memorial Day week, there were no crowds to contend with. 2) the house feels brand new throughout. There were ample toys for the kids to play with at the beach, a wagon to haul everything, and it was stocked with all the things we would need for a comfortable stay. 3) you are only 20 mins from all the touristy stuff. 4) the neighborhood felt safe 5) a shower downstairs to rinse off the sand which will still follow you everywhere for the rest of your life. LOL! 6) three balconies/decks for relaxing and very comfortable beds 7) games and streaming Netflix for entertainment 8) plenty of space. We had 4 adults and 3 children. We would definitely stay here again

We had a fantastic stay! The house is wonderful and loaded with nice amenities, including a great dining table, a well-equipped kitchen, a comfortable living room, good TVs, and very cozy beds. Plus, the AC is nice and strong! Our kids absolutely loved the full-over-full bunk beds—it was honestly one of the highlights of the trip for them. We also found the space under the house to be incredibly useful, and it's a short, pretty walk to the beach down a quiet road.Rich was an amazing and highly responsive host. The front door can be a bit tricky to fully close and lock, but Rich proactively messaged us about it and there were signs posted, so it wasn't an issue. To top it all off, despite checking the house multiple times, we accidentally left my daughter's favorite stuffed bear behind. Rich went above and beyond by finding it and mailing it back to us, along with another small toy the kids enjoyed. He truly saved the day! We highly recommend this property.

Family vacation

The Blue Pearl was an awesome beach house for our family vacation. My wife picked this house out of several options and we were not disappointed. The house was fully stocked with almost anything you could think of having for your trip. Rich was an awesome host and made sure we had everything we needed. Beach is a short walk down the road. We rented a golf cart to make it easier to haul kids back and forth. I would highly recommend renting this house!
