Relax In your Private Lagoon Pool, Galveston's Best Backyard!

The Blue Lagoon is the last historic island home with 20 inch dropped down tin ceilings. This 1 story 4/2 sleeps 10 on upscale mattresses with luxurious linens. (Rental included a 1/1 guest apt total you can sleep 12) Keep all your guest on the main floor without additional stairs. Entertain your guest in a chefs kitchen with nautical den and dining area. The location is in the heart of everything yet you can sleep quietly at night. Walk to the beach or dinner or hit a play or concert at "The Opera House". You can even have a horse and carriage pick you up. Perfect for wedding or a girls night out.
Walk to the beach in 5 blocks, walk to restaurants, the guys can hop a fishing boat and the girls shop all day. Why add 30 more minutes and miles out on west end when you can be in the city...Enjoy our island then finish the day with the best back yard second only to moody gardens. Don't miss the big game from the hot tub that seats 12. The pool is heated for those cold winter days! Plan on having coffee on the front porch and enjoy the coastal breeze. Before you leave walk down and attend some of the most beautiful architectural designed church's in Texas!
Your rentals gets the main home sleeping 10 and our garage apt sleeps 2 more friends. We do have stairs to get in main house. We do have exterior cameras for safety and insurance purposes. No prom parties please. 100% refund on deposits when 30 days notice on cancellations.

We do not rent through Craigslist.

Great Place For a Family Vacation
We so enjoyed our stay! The house was absolutely beautiful and the outdoor space/pool was perfect for the days we didn’t want to be at the beach. Great space for our family to be together and have plenty of room + fun.

Annual Mardi Gras trip
This property is awesome. The host "Ramona" has everything you need to make your stay comfortable and affordable. There is coolers and toys for the beach, toys for the pool, the hot tub is relaxing, and she has a propane and charcoal grill. We go to Mardi Gras every year and this house by far is the best house for location and space for comfort.

Galveston Vacation
The rental process was quite easy. The location was very good within a short walk to the beach or a short drive to downtown. The neighbors were friendly and welcomed us. The facilities offered everything we needed to have a great holiday vacation.

Fantastic Spot
The weather wasn't very nice during our stay, but that just made the hot tub that much better. The house was great and the very convenient to most things in Galveston. There is also the oldest bar in Galveston just around the corner called Sonny's Place that was fantastic.

Wonderful pool and hot tub
Beautiful house in Galveston. It was about 6 blocks to the beach. Hot tub in particular was EXCELLENT -- 103 degrees kept the kids out and allowed me to marinate while they swam. We had a wonderful time. Host was kind and quick to respond.

Group of senior ladies really enjoyed the pool. Beautiful grounds with plenty of seating in shade or sun. Kitchen was well equipped with a large table so we could all sit together. Beds were comfortable. Minimal hanging space was our only disappointment. Definitely recommend!

Not happy
1st all we wasn't able to get in when we arrived not happy about that. For the amount we paid i expect way better then what it showed the kitchen had roaches the refrigerator smelled bad the shower curtain need to be replaced also the bathtub drains was stopped up and random people showed up that we had no way know who they was to fix stuff and clean the pool which we should of been told about in advance he was just there when we return we have kids and the random man could of been hurt for doing a job we knew nothing about. I feel like we should be given compensation for all are inconvenient.

Historical Galveston
I treated our kids and grandkids and myself to a long weekend in Galveston to do the Historical Homes Tour, as an early Mother’s Day gift to myself. We were stunned by the beauty of the property where we stayed! Not only was it beautiful and historical, but it is maintained to perfection. And so clean, you probably could have eaten off the floors.The hostess, Ramona, is great to work with, and very prompt to respond to emails and texts. Overall, we’ve never had a better experience with any place we’ve stayed on a vacation.
