Me, my wife, 4 year old and 1.5 year old stayed at the pelican pub for 4 nights. We had a great time. The house was clean and very pretty. It’s clear the owners put a lot of thought into the home for their guests. Every tv is equipped with Roku so all you have to do is sign into your streaming accounts and you are ready to go, and each tv has a remote holder attached to the wall so you never lose the remote. The kitchen was loaded with everything you could need. Baking sheets, pots, pans, plates, cups, even olive oil, and different seasonings to cook with. They even had fun colored kids plates, bowls, cups, and eating utensils. Coffee maker had Kcups but we brought our own coffee so we didn’t end up using them. And the shower had a little dispenser on the wall with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. The wifi was also fast and had good range. It worked all over there house and in the sitting areas outside.
The downstairs bar area is really cool. The kids loved Disney songs on karaoke. We didn’t utilize the bar as much as we would have liked, but if you are going with friends this would be an absolute blast. The outdoor sitting area has a fire pit and is a great spot to relax. We also brought our dog and enjoyed throwing the ball for her in the yard while hanging out in the sitting area. The yard is fully fenced in so perfect for dogs! The outdoor shower was perfect for rinsing off after the beach.
We also rented the golf cart which I highly recommend. It’s super convenient to drive across the street to the beach and not have to track all the sand into your car. It’s also fun to drive it around the neighborhood. We went down the street to a park in the neighborhood and the kids played. And we also drove it to the marina shop and restaurant which was really nice.
Lastly the communication with the owners was fantastic. They were very attentive and quick to respond to any messages in the app. After we left and finally got back home I received a message that the cleaning crew found a laptop... my wife left her MacBook somewhere in the house. Mark and Angela happened to be in Galveston as well and were coming back to the Houston area the next day. They went above and beyond and literally delivered it to our house. Just an amazing gesture that shows the kind of people they are!
All in all this was a 5 star vacation. We will definitely rent with them again and I highly recommend. You will not be disappointed if you rent the Pelican Pub!
