I rented this property for myself and four of my children, their spouses,and 10 grandchildren. The first thing i have to say is that the owner, Kevin, is the NICEST GUY EVER! The house is beautiful and equipped with everything you could possibly need. The kitchen has every appliance you could possibly need, plenty of dishes and even most spices you would need. There are 2 refrigerators and a beverage fridge as well. Really check out the house before you go shopping. The weather did not cooperate for us as it rained a lot. We didn't let that stop us. We still had a lot of fun on the beach. The young ones enjoyed playing in the sand and everyone enjoyed jumping the waves. Really this was a wonderful vacation.

My grandson told me to give this place a “10”. Everyone just loved it. It had a separate room on ground floor. I stayed in it with my 5 grandkids..6 to 11 years of age. The room had a shower and separate toilet. Rest of family stayed in main house. So close to the beach. Has a 80# ice machine that was so handy and 2 refrigerators .we also rented the golf cart. This is right on the beach, view spectacular! I was lucky enough to meet the owners. You will be pleased if you rent the place. We stayed 5 nights and fortunately for us the beach wasn’t busy at all.

The Blue Marlin was a great rental for our large family. The rooms and bathrooms were amazing. Our kids loved the games in the downstairs loft. The house had everything we needed and more. The beach access made everything so easy. We will definitely be back!

We were very impressed with the cleanliness, the beautiful rooms. The owner is exceptional, he made sure we felt welcome and is very gracious. Enjoyed walking within a few yards to the beach. Would go back to this house.

The house was roomy, clean and very accommodating for a large group. We enjoyed the celebration of our graduated high school students. We will stay there again.

From the very beginning Kevin was very thorough in his communication. We booked over a year out to have our wedding at his beach home. Once booked, he kept in touch with us for over a year!
When it was finally time to check in for the wedding weekend, it was a smooth process. He even made special accommodations.
Once in the home, it was perfect. Literally had everything you could ever need. The whole house itself was beautiful and well maintained!! Felt like royalty staying in the master suite. Especially on my wedding day. Getting ready for our wedding in the master suite/bathroom was amazing. The closet was the size of a bedroom! The suite fit all my guests popping in to say hi and that made it more special.
The venue was perfect for our wedding despite the weather conditions all weekend. We made it work with the wind and rain during the wedding weekend. But for the ceremony itself, God came through with a miracle…perfect weather!
The only hiccup during our experience, was items were missing from the wedding package that is offered at the venue. We were told there would be 75 chair covers for our ceremony and there ended up only being 45. That was a bummer as it effected the whole look of the ceremony.
All in all, Kevin’s communication and the absolutely gorgeous magical beach house made up for it!! I was so sad to leave. Wish we could have stayed longer. Would love to reminisce and stay here again! Highly recommend.

We had the absolute best time at The Blue Marlin this past weekend. Everything was simply AMAZING!!! Kevin, the host, was so friendly and accommodating and he had absolutely anything and everything you could need for your stay. The house is magnificent and we can't wait to book it again. If you are looking for a fabulous weekend of your own The Blue Marlin is definitely your BEST option.

This place steps away from the beach was perfect. The weather wasn’t always ideal, so it was perfect for the kids to go to the beach for a while and back to the house. The owner was prompt to reply when I had questions. We had 12 adults and 7 kids, so this place was ideal.

This property was, hands down, the best one I’ve stayed in at Crystal Beach!
Our group can’t say enough great things! It was perfect for families and created a happy and stress-free environment for beach access, bedroom setup and group hangout space.
The house was fully stocked and labeled with all things that someone would need to feed/care for a large group of all ages.
Thank you for an amazing experience!

The house and property are even better than the pictures. Kevin made sure we had everything we could think of and even some things we hadn't thought about it. We were able to have a beautiful wedding and I can't think of a single negative thing to say about the house or property.
5.0
Eventhough the weather did not cooperate with wind and rain, the Blue Marlin was a great place to stay. It was well stocked with appliances, ammenitities and such.
We had a few issues with the ac/heater in the loft, a toilet leak and dishwasher backedup, but Kevin was quick to respond and helpful in getting as many things fixed as possible.
The house was located right off the beach front and easy access. The beds were good, sofas was a little older, bathrooms were clean.
We enjoyed our time thouroghly and hopefully can make it back!

We hosted my daughter's wedding with about 60 guests! Everything was perfect. The house is stunning and everything is labeled so even as your trying to get everything ready (which you have everything right there and more so don't pack too much) in a rush you know where everything is at by all the labels! The loft was perfect for a groom's room! All the tables and chairs were great and more than enough! Kevin was readily available at any moment even in the last 6 months for any questions we might have had. He even proactively reached out when he added even more rental options and again to see if we had any questions within a week of our arrival. If you are looking for a wedding venue on the beach, I promise this will fulfill your dreams!

We had a great time with our family to celebrate my daughter turning 15. The house has so much room and plenty of seating. The deck has the perfect view of the beach sunrise and sunset. We had a party of about 100 ppl and there was plenty parking space. Kevin had all the things needed like tables, chairs and coolers. We also rented the golf cart. We all had a great time!

It was roomy, clean, and the location was dreamy. My Family swam, fished and strolled on the Beach. We rose to beautiful sunrises, relaxed with the sunsets and chilled under the moon lit nights. We didn't want to leave!!!!

Property is really close to water and has everything you can think off at a beach house. we were 27 people stayed at this property age for 7 year old to 75 year old and it has something to do for all of us. we really enjoyed our stay at this beach house and kevin is really easy to deal with. I mostly communicated with him over text message but he is really quick on replying and always make sure that we have all we need. We had a power outage because of some issue with power grid but kevin called me personally and apologized on situation out of his hand. I really recommend this property. All of my family and extended family member enjoyed our stay.
Thank you kevin for all you did for us.

From start to finish, it was a fun fabulous family vacation! The owner was very informative of amenities of the house and communicative of pointers for the area! Thanks “Blue Marlin” for the wonderful memories!

We rented the Blue Marlin for a family reunion/vacation and it was great. We cooked most of our meals at the house and found the kitchen to be very well furnished. There were lots of beach chairs, umbrellas and toys for our use. The bathrooms were all clean and beds were very comfortable. The A/C worked excellent and kept us nice and cool. And, most importantly, Kevin was very responsive with all questions we sent his way. Would definitely recommend staying at the Blue Marlin!

Such a beautiful property and the location was just perfect! The home had everything you could of asked for and more! Host was awesome as well! Highly recommend!

This property is so luxurious! High end appliances and furniture. So well appointed. Everything you need, and more, is supplied. Even things you didnt know you would need, they thought of it. We had 28 people at one time and never felt like we were on top of each other. Plenty of room for our vehicles, ATVs, and trailors. We couldnt have asked for a better location on the beach. And dont even get me started on Kevin...he's the best! When we couldnt figure out how to work a smart appliance, he returned our call immediately. Thanks Kevin!

House was better in person than the pictures showed. Awesome is the best way to describe our stay. Host has very clear instructions and answered all text and phone calls. I held my daughter’s wedding and reception at the house, oh my, it was such a beautiful location. The fact that the house offered tables and chairs, as well to rent directly from them was an extra plus. If you’re looking for a place for you family and/or friends to gather and enjoy the beach in a beautiful house, this is the place to rent.
Pros:
Beds extremely comfortable
Extra towels for showering and the beach
Tons of beach toys/chairs
Fully stocked kitchen
Deposit refunded in a timely fashion
Excellent communication/quick responses
Easy check-in
Cons
-only con if any would be the check-out procedures
-all towels have to be washed and fully dried before you leave (I understand why) but if you want to take a quick dip in the beach before you leave/ it’s something you keep in mind
Saying this, I would definitely reserve at this location again and highly recommend for others to reserve at the BlueMarlin!

The Blue Marlin was the perfect location for our company leadership Immersion event. It was even more beautiful than your pictures and was very clean and well taken care of. The owner was checking on us from the time of booking and throughout our stay. He was quick to answer questions and provide help. Thank you so much! I would highly recommend this beautiful house for your next large group stay/event. 100%

From day 1 of booking, Kevin communicated and was so helpful with making sure we would have everything we need for our wedding. Our family stayed there with us and all of our friends came. EVERYONE was beyond impressed with the house and everything about it. We are already talking about wanting to come back. We had something that needed fixed and Kevin was there immediately and had it fixed. We couldn't have found a better place to celebrate ❤ Book this beach house. You will not be disappointed!!!

We had a wonderful time celebrating my Dad’s 96 birthday. We had all different age ranges from15 months to 96 and everyone had a great time. The accessibility to the beach was perfect. All the preteens and teens were at the beach almost before we could unpack. The adults could see the kids from the deck and meanwhile enjoyed a fantastic view of various boat coming into and out of Galveston. I would highly recommend staying here and I am already thinking about next year.

We spent a wonderful week at this gorgeous home! Everything was perfect! A wonderful place to relax and entertain just steps from the beach! Kevin is the definition of a Super Host! He made sure every part of our stay was nothing short of the best!
We can’t wait to go back! Thank you Kevin!

The Blue Marlin is by far the best home I have rented hands down! Kevin was excellent on providing me with information about the home. This home has everything you need. The living room is excellent for large group gatherings. The bedrooms are so spacious and each has a bathroom in it which came in handy with the large group we had. The bottom is huge to entertain and not to mention a parking lot that accommodates at least 25 cars. This house has empty properties on both sides and no close neighbors which is great especially if you are entertaining down stairs at night. I highly recommend this home for large group gatherings. It is definitely the best place on the island! Thank you Kevin for calling me and giving me details about the house and answering any questions I had.

We stayed at the Blue Marlin to celebrate my dad’s 90th birthday and even though it rained almost the entire weekend, we had an outstanding time. The house is exactly as described with everything you need to entertain a large group. I was so impressed with the quality of the kitchen and baths. Once it quit raining, we realized there was a gorgeous view and the placement on the beach is perfect. I highly recommend Blue Marlin.

So much to say about our stay at the Blue Marlin. Our host Mr. Nguyen put so much thought and care into our stay. He checked in to see if everything was okay when we checked in and checked out. The Blue Marlin is beautiful, clean and well kept. Thank you Mr. Nguyen for our memorable stay. My family and I look forward to our next stay.
