Come play and relax at our luxurious Kemah Boardwalk Waterfront Home!
About this house rental
Located in Kemah, this lovely house for $665 per night is a great choice for your next trip. This beautiful and newly renovated home, located in the heart of the famed Kemah Boardwalk and Lighthouse District, is the perfect vacation destination. It is a place for familial and friendly gatherings, a place to fish, play, and boat. The hardest decision you will make is which balcony to enjoy the most glorious Texas Rayleigh Blue skies from, whilst sipping on a cool beverage and being misted by The Bay’s coastal breezes; if that isn't plentiful on its own, we are amidst the wildly popular Kemah Boardwalk 60-acre theme park. Kemah Boardwalk, a Tilman Fertitta development, has recently taken the coveted ranking of "One of the Top Ten Boardwalks in the Country" by Smarter Travel. Kemah abounds you with a buzzing district of restaurants, nightlife, shopping, free concerts, rides, games and so much more! Blue Bay is a three-storied, 4 bedroom, 3 1/2-bath dreamy home with 4 balconies offering sweeping views of Galveston Bay and the city of Kemah's Light House District; here, you can easily accommodate 13-15 of your favorite people. Outdoors beckons you with a recently constructed 230 ft private pier, where our guests have fished and crabbed day and night; in fact, this area is coveted as one of the best fishing spots on The Bay! Ground Floor: The Ground Floor is the Game Room. The Game Room features pool, ping-pong, and card playing tables, along with an eating table, powder room, a refrigerator for your beverages, and a large flat-screen Smart TV; it is the perfect playscape for the young and old and never a dull moment to be had; just outside is a barbeque grill and spacious patio. Second Floor The Second Floor has a large open-concept entertainment room, including a dining table and an inviting family room for your joyous moments and movie-watching pleasures from the 65-inch Smart TV all with a view that never tires. Here you will find a double bunk bedded room and full bathroom, as well. When you are done whipping up a delicious meal from the chef’s kitchen or maybe it is take-out from one of Kemah’s fine restaurants, come outside and enjoy some dessert in the salty air! The Third Floor The Third Floor has 3 bedrooms. There is a spacious primary king-sized bedroom with an office desk, futon, Smart TV, and its spa-like ensuite bathroom. You’ll also find a queen-sized bedded room and a double over double bunk bed room with a shared adjoining bathroom. All bedrooms include walk-out balconies, 2 facing the bay and one facing the City of Kemah’s Lighthouse District. On this floor, you will find a well-stocked laundry room with a washer and dryer, as well. We are glad you’re considering a stay at our Waterfront Gem, where fishing fun and star gazing are a mainstay. You will fall asleep to the sounds and sights of The Bay and hopefully awaken just in time to catch a glorious sunrise or two right from bed. So, come make some memories!

We came down with friends for New Years. The location was perfect. You can walk to any where you want to go. The house was clean and very well set up. A plus was the inside entrance to gameroom down stairs. We will visit again.

This property has been beautifully renovated and provided an outstanding place for our family to celebrate Christmas in Texas. The home is a few hundred steps away from the Kemah Boardwalk including fresh seafood, rides, craft cocktails, and fun for all ages. The property is on the water with an incredible dock featuring water lines and power. Thinking about booking this property and staying in Kemah? Don’t hesitate. It is amazing!

Our family of 15 just stayed the weekend to kickoff our Thanksgiving break and this rental could not have been more perfect for the occasion. Prime location and such a beautiful home equipped with everything that catered to all ages! This is a yearly trip and was our first time staying in this home, but will definitely not be the last!

Wonderful location and host! House is perfect and in the best location for Kemah. We had a cleaning issue but it was discovered that a new cleaning crew was used and they will be using a different crew in the future. Host was very easy to work with, responsive and receptive to suggestions. Even offered to load the crab traps for us.
This is a perfect house for families, reunions and for us a 60th surprise birthday party. Loved the place!

We had a great time at our visit Labor Day weekend! The house was very nice with the most beautiful view. The location is walking distance from the Kemah boardwalk, restaurants, bars, and boutiques. Too bad is was insanely hot outside, in the cooler weather I think it would be nice sitting out on the back deck looking out at all the boats going by. It would be nice if there were some more sitting area on the back deck. We will be renting again. Thank you Hailey!

We loved our stay here. The pictures on the app don't do the property justice. The location is the perfect area as well because there are so many cute bars and restaurants within walking distance. Do yourself a favor and book this beach house!

From the time I booked this property, it's all been a plus. Hailey was very prompt with communication process and answered everything I needed to know and clarify. Contactless checking in and checking out were excellent and easy. The property was superb and what they say is what you really get and even more. It's gorgeous and new, very welcoming, and equipped with everything we needed. It's very clean except for the AC vent that needs cleaning cause some who are sensitive to dust were sneezing and we noticed that the vent in the entrance hall was full of black dust. We love the location and proximity to Kemah boardwalk, restaurants and the likes. The boys enjoyed the game room with the pool table and pingpong. The sofa was a big addition for sleeping in. We also caught one blue crab in the pier and some guests really enjoyed hanging out in the pier and watching the sunrise and sunset. We really loved celebrating my 60th birthday singing and dancing. Wifi was fast and some guest preferred watching movies as the house has 3 TVs already connected to HBO. Aside from the concern we have with the dirty vent, we didn't like and appreciate that on our last day (today), the AC on the main floor where we gathered for brunch and supposedly enjoying our last moments together in the living room, was turned down or should I say was off. It was too humid and hot that instead of leaving at 2:00 pm (as agreed) to enjoy my real birthday, we had to leave earlier to our dismay.

Home is beautiful and clean. Plenty of space to gather. We caught a crab in the crab basket and a couple of catfish. Took kids to the boardwalk just a few steps away. Plenty of nightlife within walking distance, although we didn’t take advantage! There is a carafe coffee maker, you can bring your own coffee grounds… Ping pong & pool table downstairs were fun for the kids. We’d definitely stay here again. Perfect for our family gathering.

The house is located in a perfect place, literally a block from the Boardwalk and within walking distance of most of the restaurants. There were plenty of rooms and the beds were comfortable. However, there were ants in the front bathroom, ants and cockroaches in the kitchen, and the first floor pool table room smelled old and extremely musty. The fishing lights at the end of the pier worked but the pier lights themselves did not. The water for the fish cleaning station was busted as well and did not work. None of this was mentioned ahead of time. So we got to fish in the dark and use our phones to bait hooks and bottled water to wash hands. But worst of all, there was no hot water! None! No mention of this prior to arrival as well. We only found out the first night when we were all treated with cold showers. I messaged Hailey the next morning and was told, a part was broken and “had been ordered”. Would’ve been nice to know ahead of time. Day #3! maintenance finally showed up but said the “new part doesn’t work either”. So yet another day goes by and literally the hour we are packing up to leave from our trip maintenance shows up with a new hot water heater. Four days and 4 nights with absolutely zero hot water for showers, laundry, dishes, nothing. No mention of a discounted rate or refund of any kind, only a “sorry for the inconvenience”. Worst VRBO experience we’ve ever had, won’t be back.

Brought my to Kemah to celebrate father's day, work from a different location for the week, and attend a reunion. This was a perfect location, space, and met all our requirements and needs.
My father loved fishing off the pier every day. We had plenty of space to spread out, hold work meetings, and gather round the large dining table in the evenings.
The host, Hailey, is very communicative, repsonsive, and the house is very comfortably decorated. Great amenities in the downstairs game room. Great decks for enjoying the views of the bay. The kitchen is equipped with all the items you will need to prepare meals.
I would rent this home again. It was a lovely and relaxing week.

We enjoyed our stay at this waterfront home. The house is large and the rooms are configured in a manner that allows privacy for multiple adult guests. We were in town for the wedding of our youngest daughter so we did not make much use of the game room in the basement area but it is a nice addition to the home. The pier is nice and there is significant sea life to observe or catch if you are into fishing or crabbing. We did see dolphin pods almost daily, there were lots of jumping fish, pelicans, etc.. One of our guest did fish from the pier and in about 15 minutes was rewarded with a moderately sized fish. We enjoyed a catch and release game with the local blue crabs. We caught on average about 5 a day.
The highlight of this house was the local restaurants within walking distance. It makes it really easy for everyone to enjoy their favorite meals at their own leisure since you don't have to load up and drive to get a meal. The kitchen in the home is roomy and stocked for cooking at home if you desire to do so. Beds are comfortable and there is a laundry room available, which is really nice. Overall our group had a wonderful stay and we would rent the property again!

Fireworks on Friday night that we watch from our own private pier easy access a two minute walk to the Kemah boardwalk and other eateries close by night time fishing off the pier, catching speckled, trout and lots of room inside the house to spread out play some pool and ping-pong as well as the family sing-along.

We did a Christmas getaway with our college age sons. This house was perfect. Close to everything, didn't even need the golf cart. Loved the fact the house had Christmas lights and a fully decorated tree with presents. It really made our Christmas trip that much more special. The pier for fishing was amazing. My husband caught a huge red drum on the first cast. The crab pots were great as well, filled up with crab within a few hours. We had an amazing time and we will be back. Wished the boardwalk had more open, however the restaurants and shops in front of the house more than made up for it. Some really great places to eat and drink. The location of this house is perfect.

Great House and Unbeatable Location – right on the water. Amazing views and walking distance to the boardwalk and a variety of great restaurants. Lots of room for the family. Hard to go wrong. We were blessed with an amazing stay. Perfect weather and mid-week...no crowds at the boardwalk. We kept the windows open for the ocean breeze, and were able to walk and sit right down at any of the nearby restaurants. Even caught a crab with one of the crab traps on the private dock? What more could you ask for? Definitely planning to return next time we need a quick oceanfront getaway!
