A little out of the way, but nice
Great property. Super easy to fish and kayak. Easy parking. Plenty of dishes and supplies in the house. The description was pretty spot on as far as how it set up and all amenities. It is a little bit far away from Galveston and things to do. The property manager was a little tricky to get in touch with because she was sick, but we were able to figure it out and get into the house. Over all a good day. Overall, a really good staying there.

Saying goodbye
As the title says"saying goodbye" to a loved one. Travelled from Canada to Galveston to do a burial at sea. Getting to the house was easy from the Houston airport. At the house we were five adults (60+ yrs). It was easy access to the home. First impressions....clean and comfortable decor. I must say that I have stayed at a few VRBO homes through the years and this home was set up "beyond" excellent for the kitchen. We we able to cook daily without any "do they have this" comments. The beds were comfortable and it was nice to have a bathroom for each couple plus one singleton. The added basement suite with bath and lower deck allowed everyone their space and solitude if needed. The decks were clean and the furniture was solid and didn't wobble. We were able to enjoy our morning javas outside with the warm wind. A lovely way to start the day especially with the weather we had been experiencing up north. If I was going to give a negative comment it would only be that the upper entrance door 'sticks' a little when opening/closing it and the ice maker froze up with a big hunk that we cleared out....thats it! Would love to return another time and stay longer.

Great stay!!
We had a great time at The Southwest Pelican!! The kids loved kayaking and fishing in the canal. The beach was just a short golf cart ride away. It fills up quickly, so get there early. The Jamaica Beach pool was wonderful. The house was everything we hoped for. It was clean, spacious, and well-stocked with everything we needed. The downstairs bath was a little small, but the master bedroom and bath were spacious and very comfortable. Would definitely stay again.

Great spot at Jamaica Beach
Perfect family stay at Jamaica Beach. Not as crowded, Galveston State Park highly recommend. Showers to rinse off the sand. Really enjoyed our stay in the bay. Kids loved experiencing the Kayaks and night fishing. Look forward to making another trip in the future.

Three night stay with teen daughters. Wonderful space for our needs. Enjoyed the night fish lights and kayaks. Be aware that the kayaks are a little tricky to launch and pull back onto dock. Close to beach access as well. Overall a great stay and well stocked pantry. Would recommend !

Excellent Home for Holiday Weekend
Wonderful place to stay for long weekend. Home was clean and well kept. House had everything you'll need for a trip to Galveston area. Our oldest son loved the downstairs room to have a space all to himself. Fishing off the dock was easy and you're a short drive from the beach or grocery store. As someone who's stayed at a number of properties in the area, this was our favorite and can't wait to visit again.

Beautiful home but small
Nice home that was well furnished with tasteful decor. House was to small for six adults. Bathrooms other than the Master were very small. Downstairs living area had a musty smell. Great balcony overlooking the canal. Good for a single family or four adults and one child.

Family Vacation
The property was perfect for our family. We had the grandparents, aunt/uncle, ourselves, and one kid/ one infant. The location was fantastic. Not even five minutes to public beach access and far enough away from the busy seaway traffic. The kayaks and patio area were our favorite and we ended most days all curled up on the couch or at the table playing games and watching movies while the littles played. Definitely recommend this property!
