We had a great time at the house! Super kid-friendly (including beach toys) and a quick walk to both the public or private beach. Jesus was super responsive and accommodating!

The check in process was very easy and fast. Jesus is very responsive. The view of the ocean was beautiful. We loved that we were provided chairs, umbrellas. And a wagon to take to the beach. This was a wonderful surprise and made packing a lot easier.
There was a few things that need to fixed. The cleaning crew did not clean the decks. They were covered in food and spilled drinks. They also missed cleaning the stair rails and cabinets. We had to clean sticky rails and cabinets upon arrival. The Clorox wipes were black.
The master bedding had holes in the sheets at the bottom. I didn’t notice until my toes got stuck and n the middle of the night.
The previous family did not take out the trash, so our family had to stuff trash in overflowing garbage cans which brought a lot of flies.
There were a few outlets that need to be fixed in the kitchen,They did not work.
I do not feel Jesus is to blame for the cleaning crew. However, they do need to do better. That is a large fee we pay for cleaning when we reserve and I feel that they did a really lazy job.
The other things are matainance related and can be easily fixed.
Overall, our family really enjoyed the house and the location.

Our family had a week-long Thanksgiving gathering at Bonita Rita. The accommodations were excellent. Plenty of room on the second floor for lounging and dining . The bedrooms were very comfortable. Jesus was very responsive to text messages. One of our clan was injured after a trip in the driveway. Jesus expressed genuine concern and took action to help prevent similar trips in the future. We still had a wonderful time and plan to stay there again.

We really enjoyed our stay. Plenty of room, clean and welcoming. Walked to the beach and enjoyed quiet time while everyone slept in. 😎 So close to all the attractions. If we come back we will probably stay here again.

This beach house is an excellent home and location for a family getaway! There was plenty of comfortable space for all of us to eat together, relax in the living space together, and hang out on the balconies together - key focus on being able to be TOGETHER, which is so easy with the upstairs open floor plan. I love the decor with a very tastefully done beach theme. The kitchen is so well stocked that we didn't have to use anything we brought with us - tons of cookware, utensils, and spices as well as dishes, glasses, mugs, and silverware. The appliances are clean and there are numerous small appliances provided - toaster, toaster oven, flex brew coffeemaker, and a blender. We cooked and had breakfast together each morning and had coffee on the 2nd floor balcony where you can see the ocean. There were plenty of linens for us all and we did laundry a few times in the fairly new stacked full size washer & dryer conveniently located on the 1st floor with the bedrooms. The wagon, beach chairs, and beach toys are a really helpful touch and that wagon saved us because we brought our own, but we had too much for just one! The neighborhood "private" beach was so nice for family time and keeping up with kiddos. There were plenty of things close by for shopping, dining, and entertainment with Wal-Mart, Kroger, Target, and Pleasure Pier. Last, but not least, Jesus & America are wonderful hosts and answered any questions we had very promptly. We hope to return soon to Bonita Rita!!

Private beach experience
The property was exactly as shown and within a very quick walk to the beach. There were public and private beach areas, the private beach was never crowded. The house included a few beach accessories that made it even more enjoyable to spend the day at the beach and the balconies at the house were also relaxing to spend time on. Jesus was an amazing host! Helpful and quick with communication. It was a perfect place to stay and close to multiple attractions and restaurants. We’re already planning our next trip!

Exceptional House Walking Distance to the Beach
The house is absolutely gorgeous with a wonderful open layout on the top floor, great outdoor spaces and nice bedrooms. The location is less than a 5 min walk to the beach and the homeowner provided a wagon, umbrellas, chairs and beach toys. The beach is perfect for all ages with warm, shallow water and playful sized waves. Our host was extremely responsive to questions and very helpful. We will definitely be back!

We loved the layout and cleanliness and closeness to beach.
We didn't like no pets allowed or no noise after 10 pm. But it was a great location and had all the stuff available to have fun at the beach!

Wonderful!
We loved staying at the Bonita Rita. Pics online were exact, and the house smelled so good when we walked in! It truly felt like home during our stay. The beach was a stones throw away and an easy walk. Jesus was always a text away if we needed anything. We will definitely be back!!

Enjoyable 3 day weekend!
We enjoyed our visit. Communication was good, Jesus was quick to answer all of our questions. Location provided an easy access to the private beach and just a short drive to the Galveston sea wall. Problem with standing water in ditches which created an over load of misquotes! Three bedrooms and two sleeper pull outs upstairs provide lots comfortable sleeping. Appreciated the lawn chairs, umbrella and toys available for us to use.

Great house you can easily walk to beach from property - take a wagon. Safe area. The house was well stocked and allowed lots of room for everyone. Highly recommend!!

Spacious House Very Close to Beach
Very clean and roomy. It does have a lot of stairs but what beach house doesn't have stairs. All bedrooms on lower level and very large open living area on second level. Loved the location to get to town, views from balcony and privacy of the beach (cars not allowed on beach). The owners were awesome and very responsive. They also have another house just a few houses down. I would certainly recommend this beach house.

Perfect vacation home
The home was spotless, provided a lot of beach necessities. Location and views were perfect. Short drive to all the restaurants and bars but just outside of all the traffic - which we love. Homeowners were very responsive and helpful with details. Definitely recommend and we will be back.

We’ll be back!
This was a perfect spot for our summer friend’s getaway. It is a minute walk to the beach and it is also very convenient to load up the truck with your gear, drive, drop off, and walk back. The house is well equipped with all essentials. There are two beautiful balconies to enjoy the view with coffee in the morning and cocktails at night. All beds are comfy-even the sofa beds. We had a great experience!

Bonita Rita
Me and my family enjoyed our stay during Mother’s Day weekend. The patio was amazing for hanging out, morning coffee and just relaxing and reading. Beach was very close a short 2min walk. The wagon they offered helped a lot with taking stuff to the beach. The house was clean and had a lot of the kitchen stuff we needed for cooking and hosting Mother’s Day brunch. Jesus was super generous allowing us to have late check out to finish our Mother’s Day brunch with out rushing out. Will be coming back for sure

Just Perfect
Everything about the stay was fantastic. The location is close to the beach, but also relatively close to 61st St. There was a big storm the first night we were there which threw off the thermostats. The owner was VERY quick to respond and had it repaired quickly. The kitchen is fully stocked which made cooking a breeze. I highly recommend the property.

Great Beach House
This place was perfect for our family getaway. Everything we needed for the beach was provided-it was nice to not have to haul chairs, sand toys, etc.
The porches were perfect for drinking coffee in the mornings! Beds were comfy and house was super clean!

We chose this property for it's proximity to the beach. This beach is the best of both worlds! You can either be on a pedestrian only side or drive, park, and essentially tailgate right on the beach feet from the water! I love a clutter free VRBO and this house fit the bill! Nicely decorated and very comfortable! Jesus, the Owner, was very easy to work with and he responded in a timely manner to any questions/needs we had. There were 4 adults, and 5 children (1 yr - 8 yr.) I think the only thing that would have been helpful to have would be a baby gate to block off the stairs. Other than that we had a wonderful time! Side note* the bedrooms are below the kitchen and living room. You can definitely hear all the pitter patter of feet, luckily we brought the sound machine for the baby and she and slept through it!

Perfect family getaway...
We were looking for a quiet little getaway for our family between Christmas and New Year’s and this house was perfect! Steps from the beach that was never crowded, two balconies with partial views of the water, close enough to restaurants for delivery or take out, it was just what we were looking for to get away yet still feel safe during this pandemic. The house was so perfectly decorated, with bedrooms on the main floor and a wide open living space upstairs. We booked at the last minute, and the owner was so friendly and easy to work with. We really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again if we return to the Island!
