We loved our stay. Eric & Cathy are terrific hosts. We forgot some clothes and they got them back to us. House is right on the beach! The only caveat is that the winds were up (25-30) when we were there & the house rocked us to sleep. If you are prone to motion sickness, be prepared. We had no issues & hope to rent again!
My two sisters & myself had a wonderful stay at Sea La Vie & will recommend it to friends & other family members. House is clean with very comfortable beds & sheets! Towels were very soft & nice! Over all a very nice place to stay.
My sister and I enjoyed the location, not too far from grocery and ferry but also not crowded. The tall chairs on the deck were perfect for ocean viewing. Place was clean. Windows didnât like to open and no screens when they would. Overall a Good find :)
We really enjoyed our stay. The rental was close to a lot of great birding sites and we loved our ocean view each day. We especially appreciated the purple martin house in front of the rental. We were glad that we read other reviews that recommended buying groceries before arriving as groceries and restaurants are limited in the area.
We had a great stay! beautiful views of sunrise. Everything was clean and exactly as it was described. The beach was full of seashells and different treasures to look for the kids and the dogs absolutely loved it. We will definitely be back.
The house was amazing and literally walk out onto the beach. WE traveled with 2 adults and 4 kids (ages 4-17) and everyone found something they enjoyed from playing on the beach, in the water, or just laying on the sand. Plenty of sleeping room for everyone and what we needed to cook (though let's be honest we went out to eat a lot to). The owner's were some of the best to work with. Very accommodating and kind. Would HIGHLY recommend this house to rent and we would rent it again.
Our family had a wonderful stay! The house was perfectly stocked with all the essentials. Beds were comfortable, and there was plenty of space for our family of five. It was a quiet and peaceful location that allowed our family to play board games, work on puzzles, bbq, and take nice walks on the beach. Love that it was clean while being pet friendly! Hostess was great, and answered questions clearly and quickly. We had such a memorable, and well-needed vacation.
We enjoyed our stay at this VRBO. It was attractive, clean, and well furnished. Its proximity to the beach is second to none. That being said, there are a couple of things to be aware of, none of which necessarily detracted from my stay.1. It is about 40-60 minutes from Galveston and requires a free ferry crossing. I thoroughly enjoyed the ferry. I'd recommend getting out of your car and going inside it to view from the upper deck. The dolphins are very cool to watch.2. If you have severe vertigo, be aware this home is on pilings. This is 100% normal for the area. In heavy winds or if you have a heavy footed person, the house does sway a bit. It didn't bother me, but its just something to be aware of. All homes in this area do this as it is a flood prone area and all are on pilings.3. Go to Mardi Gras!4. There are very, very few places close to the VRBO to shop for necessities at. There is family dollar up the road, but I'd recommend getting everything you need on your way to the house.
Stayed with Wife, a 4 and 8 y/o, my parents and mother in law, and 1 dog as well
Right on the beach! Lots of shells đ to look through, house was cozy and felt secluded without being too far away from everything, house was clean, great spot great price
After vacationing on Bolivar, we decided to purchase a couple of homes. After several years of sharing the houses with others, we decided to build several houses for family and friends to gather and fellowship. We live in Dallas, TX and enjoy escaping to this quiet, peaceful beach. We want you to experience this wonderful place where you can relax and enjoy!
