Short family getaway.
Property was very clean, quiet, and comfortable. Minimal issues were upper level air conditioner was not working, propane for grill was almost empty and extra tank was empty. Both issues were fixed and management was very responsive. Shower control in one bathroom was damaged but worked, and television in one bedroom had to be unplugged and reset several times. No big deal there. Overall very nice house and location, we had a great time.

Nice Time Great Bay View
This house has an amazing view from the main living area. We loved it. The house had just about everything we need in the kitchen. The elevator worked wonderfully although it is just big enough for one wheelchair person to use. No second passenger as it is small. It was nice to have though for all the groceries and luggage. We like this place a lot. One suggestion no blinds on main living area means setting sun shines in an hour or two. Pretty though sparkling off of the bay. Thank you for a wonderful vacation. No bugs! No problems! Just a good time. One more thing, it was nice to have the vacant and grassed lot next to the house. We used the lot to play baseball, and pickle and the kids could run about as much as they wanted.

Wonderful stay!
This house is the nicest rental we’ve stayed in at Pointe West, and they are all wonderful! The kitchen has amazing appliances (icemaker! Huge fridge!), great pots, pans, and utensils to cook for a crowd, and a spacious pantry. The view of of the bay is delightful and fun to watch the fishermen. You can walk to the small pool, and there is plenty of parking. Bedrooms were perfect for our group. There are a lot of stairs as others mentioned, but there is an elevator which made getting groceries, beach stuff, coolers, and suitcases in and out of the house a breeze. The only small things we might make would be to add blinds to the living room windows, and to double check with the cleaning service (trash left in the kitchen made for a smelly arrival, and beds in the bunk room were not made). Easy fixes! A perfect multi-generational family stay!

Great Family Beach/Bay vacation
Therre was 11 of us covering 3 generation with age 1 to 74. We had a wonderful time and the place was just what we needed for our size crowd. It was cleanly, spacious and had every kitchen appliance and gadget we could plossibly need or use. The only lacking were a high chair, beach towels and a child gate at the top of the main floor(third). I mention the high chair and baby gate because it seemed like it was baby-friendly with a pack-and-play. This is not a game changer only a suggestion. I still give the house a 9 our of 10. Thank you.

Incredible home!!!
The house was excellent. The community was excellent and I highly recommend renting this property. You can enjoy the most beautiful sunsets from the upper balcony, you can catch fish in the bay just behind the house and you can cool off in your choice of two pools. I'm definitely renting this property again

This is the second time we have vacationed at this beautiful home! Coffee on the deck overlooking the quiet bay and sea grass was lovely. Drinks on the deck just before sunset was even more beautiful!

GREAT TIME AT BLUE CLAWS!!!
Beach Home was fantastic. Was everything we expected and more. Would have been perfect if there had been an elevator for those needing assistance with the many trips to the 3rd floor living area. Pointe West is a quality development providing 2 pools and other features for walking, running, biking, carting & fishing activities. Access to the bay and beach was great. John - Vacasa local property manager was very available and responsive. Property and development is best suited for active people who enjoy and can handle walking and climbing stairs. We hope to visit again soon!!

A Grand Home
My family, good friends and I spent a New Years week at Blue Claws. This is a grand and fairly new home with all the amenities you may imagine a new home would include. An open concept kitchen, dining and living area with a bay view worth a million bucks. The sunsets were amazing. We cooked, we ate and played games nightly cuddled up with throws provided. We love cooking and this is a cook's kitchen; well stocked with almost all needs anticipated. The bedrooms are large with very comfortable beds. Each room has an ensuite luxurious bath with some toiletries provided. The laundry room is large and convenient. Towels are provided for your use. This is a beach house with first floor garages and picnic tables. Four rooms are on the second floor where the main entrance is located. The Master, as well as living spaces, are on the 3rd flight up. The beach is an easy 1 mile walk away or easy parking next to the walk over bridge. Wish list: extra blankets and pillows, better amenities in the baths ie shower gel, bed side tables for all beds with lamps and maybe usb ports/plugs, some kayaks for the warm month visits!:) We enjoyed are stay and would return!

Great time to visit in October.
We loved our stay here. The beaches were quiet and much cleaner than pirates beach. It was a quick ride to the beach and the pool in our rented golf cart. Our teen waded out and did some fishing on the bay side and had a great time. The furnishings were new and beautiful and the kitchen very well stocked. Our only issue was the mosquitos but obviously that’s no ones fault but Mother Nature and the multiple hurricane and tropical storms this month!

The sunsets are worth the mosquitoes 🙂
Stayed 4 nights, just me and one friend in this large, beautiful home. Be warned staying here involves a LOT of stair climbing. The house is on the bay side, 15 minute walk to the beach in a safe and secluded area. It's Galveston, so don't expect blue water or white, fluffy sand. The waves are nice though. There is a 3 minute walk to a very nice pool with the tiniest lazy river you've ever seen, but it was perfect. Great pool for kids if you have them with you. The beds were extremely comfortable, the kitchen huge and stocked with plenty of dishes, glasses, pots and pans. Grill outside was clean and worked well. There were wading fisherman in the bay, so I think it is a great house for people who like to do that. We do not, but we had a relaxing time in the pools, going for walks, cooking, playing Scrabble and watching shows. Because of the pandemic, there is really very little to do. Also the pool closes frequently for cleaning during the day. Thank goodness the property manager left bug spray because the mosquitoes were the worst I have EVER seen. The walk to the pool is paved and cute, but it is through a marsh. I am not exaggerating when I say countless mosquitoes were on us as we walked. They bite your face, neck, legs and arms ferociously. It is that way in the yard as well if it isn't windy. Vacasa was very responsive and took care of any problems we had quickly and kindly. The sunsets and the beauty of the house made the lack of activities and the mosquito bites worth it. Great place to stay with a group of people. They say it sleeps 14, but I think 10 adults is the max. With that number, 6 would be 2 to a room and the other 4 would be in the same room, each in a full size bunk bed. I would stay here again though, it was very nice.
