Remarkable!

A huge thank you to the owner who could not have been more accommodating. The home is immaculate with much attention to detail. We had the most wonderful time enjoying the heavenly sunsets! The children…and adults…enjoyed designing paper airplanes and sailing them off the upper deck on to the lawn. It was quite a contest. Our 7 year old took the prize! We had a Corn Hole tournament on the lower patio and a domino tournament around the game table in the great room. We fished off the beautiful pier, went for walks and enjoyed the beautiful views. I would not hesitate to book again as it was remarkable!!

Fantastic Weekend Getaway

The property was just as described. Lots of room for all adults. Beds were very comfortable, everything was labeled and easy to get to/understand. We made heavy use of the fishing pier and the back patio. Spent lots of time sitting in the breeze. Great location, only a couple minutes to restaurants and beach. Host was fantastic and responsive to all questions. Absolute gem.

Wonderful home

We had the best time here at the Nautical! They have everything you need for cooking and cleaning! The location was just wonderful and the kids had a wonderful time on the dock fishing! It’s located far enough away from the busy summer visitors but only a short drive to multiple beaches that aren’t busy at all and only a short drive to pleasure pier. The property manager was very helpful and answered any questions we had very quickly! This is a wonderful home for big family vacations! We will be going again!

A long relaxing weekend away with everything you need!

We rent vacation homes often and I must say this was one of our favorites. The location is great, right on West Bay with little traffic. The boys enjoyed fishing from the dock. This home had every item you could ever think of needing, that's a large plus when you want a quick getaway and little stress. The home is in great condition, and we had no issues with items not available or working. The views are gorgeous, and it was just what we needed. The indoor and outdoor furniture is in great condition and there is tons of seating for everyone who stays. We will definitely be back!

About the host

Hosted by Owner/Property Manager

In 2008 Hurricane Ike destroyed our 1960s fishing camp. We built Nautical on our existing property with over 1000 sq. ft. of covered porch including a large screened porch because the expansive views are beautiful. Nautical's unique location offers incredible views of bay, wetlands, sunrise & gorgeous sunsets. Relax on the porch and enjoy the birds' daily migrations: Brown Pelicans, Pink Roseate Spoonbills, Grey Blue Herons, Great White, Snowy and Cattle Egrets, various Terns & the classic Laughing Sea Gulls. In the winter season elegant White Pelicans float for hours in the pier's fishing lights. A Nautical lazy day: Grab coffee & watch sunrise from porch, eat breakfast, drive the kids 5 minutes to West Beach, collect seashells & build sand castles! Rinse sand off kids in 2 Cabana Showers before throwing burgers on the grill. Enjoy an afternoon of pier fishing, crabbing, or bird watching/cycling along our quiet, mile long dead-end street. Toss bread to seagulls from Nautical's private pier in late afternoon. After dinner, night fish on the pier or relax in the screened porch and enjoy the breezes and expansive skyline framing West Bay. Our two master bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms makes Nautical a great place to share with family or close friends and our coastal decorations offer a relaxing setting when you finally head inside. As a host, we enjoy sharing Nautical whether you want to fish, relax or take in Galveston's outdoor activities and theme parks.

Why they chose this property

Our lot is situated in an idyllic waterfront & natural location yet civilization is at our doorstep since we bought it decades ago. (Amusements, restaurants & stores are just 10 minutes away!) We love to fish from our private pier, go fishing by kakay/boat in West Bay and crab the inlets. Bring your kayaks or boat. Head to West Beach to build sand castles, go seashell hunting and ride the waves; West Beach is just minutes away. The breezes, views, sounds of wave action, bird calls and Nautical's relaxed, coastal interior allow us to escape 'city life'. The 'kid in us' appreciates that Galveston's tourist attractions and restaurants are so nearby. Sunrise, sunset, amazing moonrise and star gazing from Nautical's porches and pier are great times to gather and toast life on West Bay!

What makes this property unique

JAN + FEB SPECIAL - BOOK TWO NIGHTS AND GET 3RD NIGHT FREE.
FREE 8PM LATE CHECKOUT.

UNIQUE NATURAL SETTING ON SECLUDED STREET: Bay front property with private pier and fishing lights, nearby public boat launch on our secluded street, and wetlands on the opposite side of the street. Even though its location feels secluded - Galveston's historic seawall is only 6 minutes away! SPORTSMAN'S PARADISE: Enjoy fishing, crabbing, boating or watching boats cruise the bay. If you kayak, bring it because the inlets along West Bay provide great fishing and calm wave/tidal currents for paddling your water toy!! Nautical's private pier is equipped with many cleats. Do not dock boats overnight due to active tide.

INSPIRING SUNSETS & SUNRISES: Bring your camera because God's sunsets and sunrises can be spectacular! In the evening, the lights on the distant mainland, Causeway Bridge and Galveston Island nicely frame West Bay and create a beautiful skyline. From the East Porch and house, the rising moon is memorably huge and quick; Star gaze the constellations from the porches or pier because the stars don't have to compete against bright city lights.

BEST BIRD WATCHING: Enjoy the daily bird migration between the federally protected bird sanctuary islands to the North and federally protected wetlands directly South of Nautical; daily you'll see Brown Pelicans, pink Roseate Spoonbills, Grey Blue Herons, Great White, Snowy and Cattle Egrets, various Terns, other Herons & the classic Laughing Sea Gulls. From Fall through Spring, birds migrate from as far away as South America. As our mantra says, 'It doesn't get any better than this!' ....
