Sea Isle Galveston's Blue Starfish #1920595 - Enjoy First Row Views

Make yourself at home at Blue Starfish (VRBO # 1920595) where you are steps from the beach and even closer to amazing sunrise and sunset views from the spacious deck. Kids (and pets) will have plenty of space to play in the fenced back yard while you watch from the swing on the patio.

A bright open floor plan makes it easy to gather for family time whether itā€™s visiting, playing games, watching TV or enjoying a meal. The family room has a large TV, a DVD player and an electric fireplace for those chilly nights as well as free Wi-Fi and cable TV. There is dining for 8 at the table with an additional 4 stools at the counter. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes, pots and pans to help make mealtime easy. There are 2 12 cup coffee makers, a Keurig, a microwave, 2 toasters (4 slice and 2 slice), a blender, a hand mixer, a crockpot and a Belgium waffle maker.

Your vacation home can sleep up to 12 people. There are 3 bedrooms on the main floor ā€“ 2 with king beds and 1 with 2 full beds. The sleeping loft upstairs has a twin over full bunk bed and a twin daybed. Each of the 3 bedrooms is tastefully decorated to enhance your beach stay and include a TV. The bedroom with the 2 full beds also has a DVD player. Because the sleeping loft is open to the main floor, there is no TV in it. There is also a Pack 'n Play for those little ones.

After a day at the beach, you can shower off in the downstairs outdoor shower. You will also find a propane grill, picnic table, additional chairs and a fish cleaning table downstairs.

To help you settle in for your vacation, we provide a starter set up of coffee filters, 2 premeasured pouches of coffee (1 regular and 1 decaf), 6 K-cups, kitchen garbage bags (2), paper towels (1 roll), dishwasher soap (2 pods), a new sponge, dishwashing liquid, toilet paper (2 rolls in each bathroom), laundry soap (2 pods), dryer sheets (2) and liquid hand soap in the kitchen and bathrooms.

Fresh sheets and towels are provided, and, for your convenience, there is a washer and a dryer for your use. There is also an ironing board and iron provided. There are dryers in each of the two bathrooms.

Please remember that you will be staying in someoneā€™s home, so we ask that you please treat it with care and respect. As our home is in a family oriented neighborhood, we do limit guests to 12 (daytime and/or overnight) and do not allow events.

Please feel free to email us with any questions about the property. Thank you and we hope we can help you have a wonderful vacation.

Right on the Beach
Like a 30 second walk to the water. Very nice house, lot of peopleā€™s first time to the beach and they were really happy with the location and house. Was like a 25 minute drive from the main tourist part of town but was happy after dealing with a lot of people to get out of town to the quiet. 7 minutes away from the best shelling beach. House had everything we needed and them some.

Relaxing retreat
We just returned from our stay at the Blue Starfish and I already want to go back! We loved that we could walk right to the beach and enjoy our day. It wasn't too far outside of Galveston that we had to drive forever to get to any destinations. With Hurricane Beryl, we weren't sure how everything would be, but Larry (the owner) kept us updated every step of the way and we were able to arrive as planned. He was very quick to respond to any questions we had and even kept us updated when storms knocked out the internet and tv while we were there. We will definitely be staying at the Blue Starfish again! :)

Considering we survived hurricane Beryl the house itself was nice. The owner was very responsive to our needs and even though we had to leave on Monday morning he offered us a 5 night stay for a later date. I do look forward to staying there again.

Absolutely outstanding!!
The check in process (gaining access to home upon arrival) was very easy. Instructions were emailed days in advance and were just as described. There is ample parking. We had 4 vehicles (2 cars, 1 SUV, 1 full size crew cab truck) and all 4 fit underneath the house with one additional concrete spot outside. The stairs have working lights on each step that truly helped at night. The deck is great and the views were beautiful. We loved the covered section during mid day. Inside the home is decorated like a coastal dream. It was beachy but not over the top, comfortable and functional. The kitchen was extremely well stocked with pots and pans, dishes, plastic bowls for mixing, serving or popcorn that were in great condition and all drawers and cabinets were labeled so it was easy to find what you needed. The beds were comfortable, plenty of pillows and blankets available. One of the best parts was the dehumidifier!! We think it helped keep the house cooler than others weā€™ve stayed in. We absolutely enjoyed our stay and would absolutely stay here again!

Amazing Deck with Amazing Views
We have stayed at this property many times over the years and it is still our favorite Galveston rental. The deck has comfortable seating, shade and a view. We appreciate the large dining table which is perfect for family meals, games and puzzles. The house is clean, beautifully decorated and has plenty of natural light.

Awesome house steps from beach. Clean, well-maintained. Great facilities - TV, WiFi, kitchen appls
Stayed week of 4th of July with family and friends celebrating Mom's 80th birthday. House was generously stocked with bedrooms/beds for 12. A charming loft for the kids. Kitchen had all appliances in good working order, lots of dishes and cooking equipment, coffee makers Keuring and drip. Dehumidifier was a God-send for what turned out to be the hottest week on Earth on record. Ample outdoor seating, picnic tables and grill. Less than 100 yards to the surf. House is about 15 miles from Galveston downtown. Off the beaten path but still has multiple convenience stores very nearby - just a block away. Popular beach area but not over-crowded and no loud or rambunctious parties late or overnight. All of us really enjoyed our stay. Thank you Larry and Karen for a very enjoyable stay!

This was our very first rental from Vrbo and Iā€™m so impressed! Everything was so perfect it looked even better than the pictures online we had a pretty big group and the house was great! We had great communication with the owner! the house was very cozy and clean! The fully fenced in yard was great for our littles to play and run freely the deck was gorgeous with very comfortable chairs and even had a gate so the babies wouldnā€™t fall down the stairs! Beds were heavenly! We are definitely renting this beautiful beach house again! Overall it was great! Thank you Larry and Karen for sharing this piece of heaven with my family!

Great Birthday / Mothers Day weekend
The house is wonderful. Communication from the owners is fabulous. We had zero problems. The only thing I wish I brought with me would be a spray cleaner for the counter tops and tables as I like to clean up after eating. I did bring foil, parchment, and ziploc bags with me and that was helpful as well. We had 8 adults. Plenty of seating, lots of plates, bowls, silverware, etc. Also great cooking pans. We will absolutley return here next time. The proximity to the beach is fabulous. Thank you

Great location and property!
Super location and really great house. Nicely decorated and just the right amount of space for us and our 4 kiddos. The kids loved the loft and there was plenty of drawer space up there for their clothes. Plenty of towels and the kitchen was nicely stocked. Lots of beach toys for the kids to use too. Absolutely phenomenal completely fenced in yard perfect for our pet. The beach is right there! Sea isle is just across the street and the marina has a great restaurant (with live music some nights) which we love to frequent when we visit. Had a great visit.
