Bolivar Peninsula, Texas
Beach And Bay offers the best of both worlds! Beach rental or bay rental. You pick! This is a beautiful 3 bedroom 2 bath house that sleeps 8 comfortably. The property has an enclosed downstairs shower. The house has a screened in front porch with unrestricted views of the beach and the back porch has 180 degree views of the bay. The house also has free WiFi as well as satellite TV.
Perfect quiet and comfortable bay and beach house. Our family truly enjoyed our stay.
There is very little to work with in the kitchen. Most drawers and cabinets are empty. There is very limited seating for having meals. No dining table, no table on the screen porch and no lawn furniture. All that’s there is 2 picnic tables. One was broken but we fixed it to make it work for us. The AC unit cannot keep up so on very hot days it runs and runs but the house slowly gets warmer. Overall, we did enjoy our vacation. The bay view was nice and neighborhood is quiet and calm.
Loved it! Needed this Vaca because we haven't had one since 2019. So amazing and hope to do it again soon
This was a lovely place to stay; clean, convenient and comfortable. The beds were comfortable with a few amenities missing. Could have had more kitchen conveniences, i.e., casserole dishes, tea towels and dish rags, dish drying rack since there’s no dishwasher. All-in-all, we would recommend this condo as it was close to the beach. We did call our owner on a couple of situations but she was very responsive and resolved the issues very promptly.
Stayed recently in March 2023. All in all a good stay. Close to High Island and Crystal Beach. Quiet area away from crowds. Clean place. Good floor plan with some quirks. Updated kitchen. Keurig coffee maker. Laundry room was good size and convenient. Beds were fine. Could use some clothes storage. Quirks: the second bathroom and room with bunk beds were add ons using the original outdoor patio. Insulation and HVAC could be improved. There is no dining table or dining area inside. There are picnic tables at ground level. Improvements: the first impression was of the patio screen door with the screen partially ripped from the frame. The wind was blowing so it did not impact us as far as mosquitos are concerned. Keep young children away from the non functioning lift.
There was a beautiful view through every window, bunk beds for the kids, and easy access to the beach and bay! The owner was easy to get ahold of the one time we needed too. It was a great place to getaway at. Hoping to come back in the Summer when the weather is warmer to fully experience the beach!
The photos for this listing make it appear way bigger than it actually is. Upon arrival, the first thing I noticed was that the “screen in porch” was no longer screened in. The entire screen was ripped off of the door. The patio chairs were turned upside down and some didn’t have cushions. We literally couldn’t utilize the one reason I booked this house, due to lack of patio furniture and the porch not actually being screened- letting the millions of mosquitos in. The inside of the house is updated and has a nice appearance. The “bunk room” is off of one of the bedrooms- so it does not have its own entrance. One of the bathrooms is inside of the bunk room.. so you have to go through two bedrooms to use it. If you’re traveling with another family- this is not ideal. We had planned for our children (ages 14 to 5) to sleep in there, but couldn’t because they would of been in and out of our bedroom a dozen times a night. The worst part about it.. was roaches. They. Were. Everywhere. We planned to cook at the house while there but didn’t feel comfortable due to the roaches. I’ve rarely left bad reviews but we paid a lot of money for this weekend to end up mostly ruined.
We had a great time the house was very clean and a great location.
Good location off the main section, not so crowded
The screen porch was one of the main reason I chose this rental. The porch was filthy Cushions on furniture mildewed and 2 pcs were turned over because they had no cushions. I called the property owner on the day after I checked in and requested that someone come and power wash the porch. I also found that what they called a 3rd bedroom had no curtains on the windows and asked for some type of window coverings. I mentioned several other things. It really didn’t matter because I never got a response. I was there for 18 days so not a short term rental. The fact that there were no tables to eat on or play games on. It would be so easy to provide these for your guest. No one wants to eat for18 days balanceing a plate on your lap. Rug in the kitchen was so dirty. Tried washing it but didn’t help. Floors so dirty that you couldn’t walk around barefoot without getting your feet black. My daughter and I went and got some vinegar and washed the windows so that you could see the water! I was given no check out info until I asked. At that time I talked with one of the owners and let her know how unhappy I was about these things. The place is cute and the location great but I wouldn’t recommend it or go there again without these issues being fixed. I think I should be refunded some of my rent due to the problems that I had. Looking forward To hearing back from you.
Property was very clean and incredibly convenient with its location to the beach! Had four adults and four kids under the age of 7 and we all had a wonderful time!
The house is amazing very clean everything is in the house as you needed the location is perfect. We will be renting again in the future ❤️
Our stay went great, screened in porch was nice. The house was in great shape, comfortable mattresses and very family friendly spot to stay. Easy walk across the street to the beach.
Would definitely like to stay again
This was exactly what I needed for my family looking for a nice and clean home right by the beach.
Wonderful experience, have the bay right behind you and the beach across the street couldn’t of been any better
Great location and clean!
Great location. Easy access to beach and entire area from Bolivar to High Island. Plenty of parking room and covered porch is nice for sitting and enjoying the morning.
Great location. Clean and comfortable. Kitchen a bit sparse compared to other places we’ve stayed. Nice and quiet with both bay and beach right out the door.
