About this property

Cozy Canalfront Bungalow with Screened Patio

Overlooking a peaceful, deep water canal, this bright bungalow is the place where unforgettable Texas coast memories are made. With plenty of sleeping arrangements, a spacious, screened-in, indoor/outdoor living space, and a charcoal grill, Bluewater Bungalow will quickly become your family’s favorite place to vacay. This home has everything your crew needs to relax, recharge, and reconnect on the Texas coastline.

Location: Sea Isle beach community of Galveston, Texas

Beach Access: The Sea Isle Beach access point is a 2-3 minute drive away.

Community Amenities: Guests have access to the Sea Isle community pool for a fee— open Memorial Day thru Labor Day— and the community boat launch and fishing pier with the provided keys.

Rent BeachBox: Looking for beach gear for your Galveston getaway? We have you covered! Beach chairs and tents can be ready at the house upon your arrival. Message us for details and rates.

WIFI: Free high-speed WIFI is available throughout the home.

Cable: We provide Roku with access to Sling TV for live television channels. Guests are welcome to log into their own Amazon Prime, Netflix, or other streaming service apps as well.

Pet Policy: Up to 2 pets are welcome in our home with a $25 fee per pet. We ask that pets stay off all furniture, are cleaned up after in the yard, and aren't left alone inside the home unless in a crate or kennel. Please message us if you’re planning on bringing your furry friend!

Parking: There is room for up to 4 vehicles in the driveway.

Party Policy: No parties are allowed at our home. Please look elsewhere if that is the intent of your trip.

Age Requirement: Guests must be 24+ to book.

When you arrive at Bluewater Bungalow, the cheerful, exterior and swaying palm trees will instantly transport you into vacation mode. The main level great room is bright and beachy, with a soaring cathedral ceiling with painted shiplap detail. The kitchen has a peninsula bar with seating while a flexible passthrough space opens to allow access to the back porch living area. Through the sliding glass doors, a spacious, screened-in living space will be a popular spot for your whole crew. Overlooking the sparkling canal below, your family will love to spend time out here— dining, snacking, playing games, or watching tv.

Three bedrooms provide plenty of sleeping space for your family. The first bedroom has a queen-size bed with a custom built-in twin-size bunk bed, creating super-cozy sleeping spots for the kids. A second bedroom has two queen-size beds and the third bedroom has a sumptuous king-size bed. A full bathroom is accessed from the hallway and has a tub/shower combo.

Outside, the sun-drenched wrap-around deck space is the perfect spot to soak up the Texas sunshine. The canal is also great for fishing— and there’s a charcoal grill to cook up your fresh catch of the day. Sip a glass of wine while you sway gently on the porch swing and gaze out at the sparkling canal.

When your family is ready to go exploring— the Galveston Strand and Pleasure Pier are quick drives away. And the Sea Isle beach access point, community pool, and parks are right around the corner, too. Bluewater Bungalow will quickly become your family’s new home-away-from-home base on the Texas coast.

false advertisement

They should take kayaks out of the title, they are no included you have to rent them, which is fine but don’t put it in the title. That’s misleading. The main reason we wanted to stay was to relax and fish in the bay…. There a dock in this neighborhood we were excited to fish….the owner forgot to leave us the key…… everything had dust on it, the sheets were sus… the fridge wasn’t very cold. The pool filter below the house is extremely loud. We played uno and the tv was nice but overall their advertising kinda ruined the trip. We could have stayed home for ALOT cheaper. Very overpriced.

Nice but needs a little work

Booking & checking in and out were a breeze. Place was clean and everything worked. Only reason gave 4 instead of 5 is because of a few broken things. There's a screen missing on screened porch. There's a lounge chair that's broken in front porch area and the wooden frame near the water is moving a lot so have to be careful not to stand or lean on it. Other than that was a nice place to stay a few days. My kids did like the little pool too. 😊💕

Family had a wonderful time

Everything from the initial host contact to the final checkout process was great. The family loved fishing/crabbing in the canal. It's a 2 min drive to the beach. It felt like home. Overall, it was a great place to stay... and we look forward to visiting again.

Peaceful place

We enjoyed the space and wish we had booked an extra day on the front end. The accommodations were as listed so we comfortably slept a group of ten adults. The place was peaceful, clean, and just right for a getaway or (like for us) a night before our cruise departure. I highly recommend.
