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.

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.

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.

Delightful property/creatively decorated and furnished.
The house and its location was perfect for our family Thanksgiving gathering. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were very comfortable. It was cold for the hot tub and pool but some of our group enjoyed them both. We walked to many of the locations of interest. The tub in the master bath and the sink in the other upstairs bath were very slow to drain. We were confused because the email we received and the instructions in the house differed on procedure for the handling of the sheets, towel etc.Overall wefound the house to be delightful. I was not the last to leave and hope we followed the rules for existing properly except for the laundry.

Galveston girl’s trip
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!

Annual Family Vacation
We spend our family vacation annually in Galveston and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. Ramona, our host, was very responsive and welcoming. The house was beautifuly decorated, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was well-stocked. There's an apartment in the garage downstairs but the eight of us slept comfortably in the house. The pool and hottub were awesome and there was plenty of patio seating. The house is pet friendly but there is no grass in the back or front yard so you will have to take your furbaby outside the front gate to potty. We went on several walks daily and found some wonderful neighborhood locations: Island Pier Club on 17th and O Street, Sonny's around the corner on 19th Street, the beach was about a 5-minute walk, our favorite Fish Company Taco is located on 23rd Street, and the Strand is a quick 5-minute drive away. Great rental property; you will not be disappointed.
