Highly recommend

This home is in a great location for canal access and fishing. We brought our own kayaks and easily dropped them in the canal. The Sea Isle community is wonderful. We always frequent the pier, restaurant, market store and bait shop. The home was clean with a well stocked kitchen. The upper deck and lower deck were wonderful to sit and relax. We would definitely stay again.

VRBO on the Bay in Galveston

Awesome area! Very Laidback environment. We spoke with a Realtor while there about purchasing a location in the Sea Isle/Terramar neighborhoods. The BEST of BOTH Worlds! The Beach is a short Golf Cart ride away and the Bay offers fishing, boating, and from what I understand some Duck Hunting! Super Cool!!

A great little house

This property was perfect for a group of middle age guys to get away and relax while fishing . The property has been nicely renovated , and the beds are very comfortable. The house is located directly on intersecting canals which made it a blast to fish out back all day and night. We had a great time and I'd give this rental 5 stars!

Awesome house

Everything was great staying here at the Baywatch. We all enjoyed it very much. The only thing we missed was a large ice maker, in which we got spoiled from because we had it during another rental house back 2018. Other than that it was perfect !

Coastal getaway

Overall fishing is great, a little windy at the pier. However not a lot of fishing in the neighborhood channels. The bbq grill needs an update as well as the outdoor sink. The place is very accommodating it has all you need with the help of the marina close by. Recommend this coastal Getaway.

Great canal spot

Our family truly enjoys staying in Sea Isle. This was our first time at this property. The location was fabulous. It’s right across from the bay on the corner of the canals. It’s a short walk, bike ride, or golf cart drive to the marina as well. The deck has an amazing View of the bay and sunset. The kitchen was well stocked with pots pans plates glasses and silverware. The entire place was very clean. I would highly recommend this property and we will try to stay here again.

Cozy home, perfect getaway

We had a wonderful two night stay in this canal home with bay views. Cozy home with a large kitchen. Bedrooms and bathrooms were a bit small but that’s typical for a beach house. We loved the upstairs and downstairs outdoor areas. Excellent fishing (catfish, redfish, croakers, spots and black drums) and room to grill downstairs as well as covered and uncovered areas to lounge upstairs. Management was very responsive when we had questions. House was well equipped with everything we needed. We will definitely return!

Quick response.

24 hour quick response to all concerns and property issues (it is a house, there will be things that happen that are unforeseen and no one’s fault). When those things are resolved quickly, it just makes it less inconvenient.

Great time at Bay Watch!

Excellent location for kayaking into the bay and getting to the pier and marina quickly! Needs a ladder into the canal. This home has a big kitchen with everything you need, including a Keurig (not pictured). Clean and everything working properly. Issues: couch needs to be replaced, sags terribly. Queen bed in secondary bedroom needs frame replaced, sags badly. Secondary bedrooms are VERY small. The grill is very small and only good for hot dogs or hamburgers-is NOT the grill in the pictures. We enjoyed the huge deck! This property also has a cabinet with boogie boards and other fun supplies-nice touch! We would visit again!
