Tyler is great and so quick to respond to my questions. We stayed two nights during the workweek so the peacefulness was greatly appreciated. Lots of areas within the property you can just sit down and chill. The second floor patio is huge, we stayed there to enjoy the moonshine two nights in a row. We made extremely delicious bbq using the provided outdoor grill, while the kid figuring out the crab trap. We didn’t catch any but it was still fun. Great location: Lots of nearby access to the beach. Would recommend.

We enjoyed this home with our family and friends and loved every minute of it. Being right on the water allowed for water activities from the moment the sun came up. We enjoyed jumping in the canal, fishing, canoeing, and floating at our leisure. We didn’t even make it to the beach until after checkout. There were many friendly neighbors, and still private and peaceful. We felt right at home & glad we could bring our little fur baby along too. We cannot wait to come back & would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a place on the water.

A beautiful place to stay, with each bedroom comfortably equipped with its connecting bathroom. Enjoy an easy walk to the beach, or drive and park nearby. Immensely few people on the beach, and we enjoyed having it all to ourselves. There is a small fenced-in yard where the dogs can stay safe, complete with a pooper scooper to keep it clean. A hot tub is available, but please note that mosquitoes are prevalent on the island. All amenities were available to make it feel like home. There is also a small store across the highway that offers Blue Bell Ice cream and a variety of grocery items that you may have forgotten.

Absolutely beautiful place. The walk to the beach isn't long and there are multiple nearby places to park if we didn't want to walk. The neighborhood is very peaceful and the grocery store is only a 2 minute drive away. The private pool is an amazing alternative to the beach when the summer crowd gets a little too much and it's much cleaner. All around wonderful home and I'm sure my family and I will be back for a longer stay in the future.

Tyler was a great host. Very responsive and the house was in great condition! I came home wanting to remodel 😆. The house accommodated all of us perfectly. Neighborhood was quite and lovely. 3 minute drive to beach wall. Definitely enjoyed our time and see ourselves re-booking.

The Blue Fish Bungalow was great for our family of 9, plenty of space for all or us to be comfortable; beds were very confortable, kitchen is big and had everything we needed. Big table for all of us to enjoy our family meals. We appreciated the beach towels!! The hot tub was a plus and the younger crowd really enjoyed it. The house is very beautiful and neighborhood felt friendly and safe. Groceries are a quick 5 min drive as well as the beach. The host is very professional and all comunicación was great. We didn’t have any issues. We all loved the place and will for sure consider next time we go to Galveston!

We have stayed at a few places in Galveston and found this place very clean with everything we needed to cook and enjoy the beach. It was also very free of clutter, which is appreciated in an Airbnb stay.

This home & its surroundings were the perfect introduction to Galveston. The neighborhood is calm, peaceful, & friendly. The home itself is wonderfully built with awesome finish work. We cooked almost every meal for our 3 day stay & the kitchen has everything you could need. We enjoyed the upper deck, the lower deck, the living room, & most of all the beach! The outdoor shower to rinse the sand off is awesome. This place truly had all the amenities one could ever need. Thank you, Sea La Vie!

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home is well maintained, beautifully decorated, and stocked with everything we needed during our weekend vacation. The host is very friendly and responsive. I highly recommend this home and would definitely book again!

This was hands down the best Airbnb we’ve ever stayed in! The photos are lovely, but the home is even more stunning in person—full of charm, peaceful vibes, and super clean with plenty of space. The master bedroom has the most comfortable bed and pillows! The front porch is a super cute spot for morning coffee. We also really appreciated the gated parking on the property. Tyler was incredibly responsive and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. We’ll definitely be back to the Blue Mermaid!
