The house was absolutely perfect for our stay with all of our kids and grandkids. We loved having so many separate bedrooms and bathrooms—it made everything so comfortable and convenient. Everything was spotless, and the kitchen was the best equipped of any place we’ve ever stayed. There were plenty of plates, glasses, silverware, pots, pans, and casserole dishes for everyone.The spacious common room made it easy for everyone to be together, even while different groups enjoyed their own activities. The view and location were beautiful, and the pool was a huge hit with the young kids (ages 2–6). Evenings around the gas fire pit were wonderfully relaxing.Ralph, the caretaker, was outstanding—always available to answer questions and proactive about checking in to make sure everything was perfect.

This house is magnificent! Everything about this property is amazing. The host responds promptly to questions, Ralph gives a great tour when you arrive, is a wealth of information, and is also very responsive. The kitchen had everything we needed. Appreciated having both a drip coffeemaker and a Keurig, plus three fridges. Plenty of seating and beds for our group. The pool was lovely and there are pool towels so you don’t have to bring your own. Hammock and pool lounge chairs were nice. Caught lots of fish—used shrimp for bait. Had fun crabbing also and caught lots of crab. Enough to have a seafood dinner one night! Kids and adults had fun playing chess, darts and pool. And we had a blast playing cards at the beautiful card table. There is a lovely bar—made us feel all fancy. The furniture was comfortable and plentiful. Had two people with walkers and appreciated the walk-in shower downstairs and the two downstairs bedrooms. Bedrooms upstairs were comfortable and the master bedroom is impressive. This is just such a beautiful place. The host has gone to great lengths to make it perfect. We had a fabulous vacation.

Pool table was a hit, as was chess table, card table and darts

Great place for families to gather

My siblings and our families came to celebrate our dad's 80th birthday with my parents. There were 13 of us in total, and we had so much space and there was so much to do just within the house or just outside of it. Pool table, poker table, chessboard, darts, Scrabble, giant TV, swimming pool, fishing off the pier. We also cooked all of our breakfasts and dinners at the house and there were plenty of dishes and kitchenware, making it breeze to feed so many. Lots of fridge space (3 refrigerators!) and seating. We had an amazing time here and hardly left the property (because of the weather). But we did go to the Kemah Boardwalk once and it was very close! Highly recommend this property for a gathering place for multiple families.

Great Home!

My group and I came down for the Lions vs Texans game and we were blown away by the spaciousness and location of the home. More than enough space for all 8 of us comfortably! We loved the home and all it had to offer. The next time we’re in the area, we will definitely stay here again if available!

Annual Boat Trip

We travel the Texas coast by boat with a large group of friends annually. This property was by far the very best place we have ever stayed. Was it perfect, no. I am sure some people will find something wrong with it. It was perfect for us. The bedrooms were nice sized, except for the primary suite which was the size of the average home. We could have held a dance in the primary suite. The open floor plan - game room- living area- kitchen - was perfect for our large group. There were many little things that were nice touches such as a chess set and several other indoor and outdoor games. The golf cart was a must. We used it very little but in the Texas heat that walk to the Boardwalk would have been miserable. The pool was also very nice. The only negative is that the boat docks need some attention.

Wonderful Getaway!

This property is positioned perfectly! It was close to lots of options for our family’s 4 day getaway! The pictures are great, but even more spacious and beautiful in person. There were plenty of towels for both shower and the pool to go around so no need to pack those. It was myself, my wife, and 8 of our children who stayed. Besides taking daily excursions, we enjoyed our time at the house with fishing, sunning, darts, billiards, making s’mores, and reading on the decks while enjoying the sound of the water and birds.I would highly recommend this as your next stay. The groundskeeper met us at the home and gave us a wonderful tour upon our arrival. When we had trouble with the TV service not working, he came out right away and got it sorted. We made some good family memories over our stay!

A Great Time in Kemah

My family and I had the BEST time here. The four little ones (10, 6, 6 and 2) cried when we left—they had so much fun. The location is perfect, the sunrise was breathtaking (everyday), and the house was warm and cozy, but also, large and spacious! The host responded within minutes of a text, whenever I had a question. FABULOUS VACATION!

We traveled down from WI as a three family group of 14. This beautiful house is just as advertised, easily accommodating all of us. The pools were great for enjoying a week in the hot Texas sun. Ralph the caretaker was there at check in to help explain everything and was extremely friendly. Dan’s Pizza and T-Bone Toms are within walking distance and highly recommended. NASA and Astros game were both easy commutes. Good spot to vacation.

Amazing Family/Friend Vacation Home!

We had a large group of family and friends, mixed with all ages. Adults, children, and an infant. This property has a ton of room to be spread out and not feel like you are crowded. Everything was very clean and taken care of. The property manager was a great resource to have during the stay, he answered every call and question we had. Just a short walk to the Kemah Boardwalk plus lots of bars and restaurants. The outside pools and fire pit were perfect for entertaining our large group! Highly recommend this property for your Kemah stay! We had a great time and enjoyed staying at this house!

About the host

Hosted by Clay Stagg

Why they chose this property

Our homes are nestled just minutes from the famous Kemah Boardwalk, where you can enjoy waterfront dining, carnival rides, live music, and scenic sunsets over the bay. You’ll often hear laughter echoing from the boardwalk and smell the fresh salt air mixed with kettle corn and seafood. Mornings here are peaceful, perfect for sipping coffee on the deck, and evenings come alive with lights and local energy.

What we love most is the easygoing atmosphere — where guests can fish off a dock in the morning, explore shops and restaurants by afternoon, and enjoy a coastal breeze by night. Whether you're planning a romantic escape or a family adventure, Kemah is a destination that makes every getaway feel special.

What makes this property unique

Our Bay Breeze Estate offers a rare blend of privacy, space, and fun — all just minutes from the Kemah Boardwalk. Set right on Galveston Bay, the home features two private pools, a 300-foot fishing pier, and a two-level boathouse perfect for watching dolphins at sunrise or fishing under the lights at night.

The gated property comfortably sleeps up to 16 guests across 7 spacious bedrooms, making it ideal for families, reunions, or group getaways. Inside, you’ll find entertainment for everyone: a pool table, poker table, game areas, and even a full bar.

What sets us apart from other rentals in Kemah:
* Waterfront access with spectacular bay views
* Spacious indoor/outdoor living areas
* Optional heated pools for year-round enjoyment
* Close proximity to the Kemah Boardwalk, just a short walk or drive away
* On-site parking and gated security for peace of mind
* Locally managed with quick support if anything’s needed

Whether you're floating in the pool, grilling on the patio, or exploring nearby attractions, this home makes every moment feel like a true vacation. It’s where big groups can spread out, relax, and make memories — all in a setting that feels like your own private resort.
