I enjoyed stayed here for my 30th Birthday Vacation. The unit was clean and close to a lot of attractions. I was unable to use the pool due to the rain but this is the best place to rent out.

Bright & stylish local getaway
Carmon’s place was really nice, very comfortable and modern place. We felt very safe in the area. Carmon was very responsive & even helped accommodate our needs. We loved the amenities such as the pool.

Perfect Getaway w/ Pool | Gym | Lake Views
Let me tell yall, them photos do not do it justice… when I say it’s GORGEOUS. She was very nice and sweet, the place was clean 10/10. The only thing was we had trouble with the lock BUT, let me restate but she communicated with us through the entire time and even mentioned she was ordering a new lock to replace the current one. But all in we had a wonderful time and would most definitely come again.

La Mission - Apt 5 free park
Great place, especially for the price.
Waterfront house rentals

Steps to Boardwalk, Bayfront, 216ft Pier, Elevator
I wanted to celebrate my 60th birthday with a lovely water view and with my large family. We have the added consideration of my son-in-law, who has suffered a stroke and is seriously disabled. The house at Kemah was wonderfully perfect. The views over the bay are gorgeous - even on cloudy winter days. The home is spacious and we did not feel crowded. There is an elevator, which allowed my son-in-law be upstairs with us. The home owner provides plenty of things to do, including games and puzzles, ping pong, and fuze ball. Fishing on the lovely pier is another option. There is a prep table to fillet your catch and a refrigerator designated to store it, so the kitchen fridge stays fish-smell free. We stayed in for our meals, but the house is very close to the boardwalk and you can walk to restaurants and bars. 1 of 2 ovens is labeled out of service, and so is the fireplace. Also. the dishwasher doesn’t clean well. For us, these were not problems. We all hope to stay here again!

Waterfront $ Heated Pool $ Theater | Smart Home
We held a family reunion in James’ house and couldn’t have been more pleased. The home was just as it looked in the pictures and as described in the listing. Plenty of rooms to fit 3 couples, 3 kids, and one single adult. We played ping pong, swam in the pool, made meals in the amazing kitchen, and watched movies in the theater room. The house was remarkably clean without any observed exceptions. I simply don’t have anything negative to say, it was a perfect stay. 10/10 would come again!

Bayou Breeze Hot Tub, Pool, Putting Green
The place was beautiful, and relaxing. The only minor issue was the lights in multiple areas flicker terribly when they are on and at night the house is dark without them making the stairway a little tricky for kids and elderly but it was not a major issue and we actually forgot about it most of the time so other than that it was a nice spring break with my kids.

Entire residential home - 1 story, 3 bed, 2 bath
We had a great time at Vy's place. It is located in a nice, quiet, and safe area and has easy access within ~30-40 minutes to all the main points in Houston. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to come back again in the future!

Bayfront Breeze -Private Lighted Fishing Dock 24/7
Collen and Erika have been amazing hosts. From the moment we book the house till after our stay, they made sure our experience was exceptional. The were able to accommodate a BBQ grill request, which was more than they had to do because I could have brought one. The beach house was extremely clean and comfortable, and we enjoyed the calm views and our time fishing.

Bayfront Home w/ Amazing Water View & Fishing Pier
Loved Phuc’s place the house was easy to find and Phuc was very communicative throughout our stay. The view from the pier is great and fishing on it was a blast.

Kemah's Bayfront Getaway with Pool
Great stay! Mandy’s place was in a perfect spot, close to restaurants, the boardwalk, and had a gorgeous ocean view. Loved waking up to the beach sunrise. Cozy and peaceful. Would definitely stay again!

Relaxing lakefront house in the heart of Katy TX!
Taibou’s place was what we needed for a long stay. It’s in a convenient location for basing in Katy, and hosts are very responsive. Neighborhood can be a bit noisy at night, but safe. We had everything we needed.

The house is as described, the environment is very beautiful, the neighborhood is very quiet and safe, and the host is very good at communicating and will help in a timely manner. And most importantly, the room was well-equipped, so we didn't have to worry about a thing.

Tranquility Base: Lakefront/Pool Condo
very responsive and accommodating host . very clean, cozy and comfy place

Charming Waterfront 2 Bedroom Townhouse
This was the perfect weekend getaway for us Central Texans who crave waves! Okay, it's the bay but still. We had to go that way for a robotics competition and decided to Airbnb it (vs hotel) for the experience and it was well worth it. Emily's place is right on a little marina with views on every floor plus it's super cute, clean and comfortable. Great kitchen, decks/balconies, bathrooms, beds, decor. . .everything + great restaurants and the Kemah Boardwalk are just minutes away. We will be back - with friends! Just an awesome place making for a great memory. :)

Spacious Clear Lake Condo overlooking Marina
Wonderful space! Beautifully decorated and had everything you could ever need in it! Checkout instructions were clear and host was responsive to my messages. It really felt so cozy like home! Definitely would come back!

Fabulous, modern in amazing location 2bd/2b apart
I had a fantastic stay at Milya’s apartment in 2400 McCue, Houston, TX. The self-check-in process was seamless, which made arriving stress-free. Milya even left us some thoughtful treats and coffee, adding a personal touch that made us feel right at home. The apartment itself was immaculate, well-decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable week. The location was perfect, close to shopping, restaurants, and easy access to major highways. Milya’s communication was prompt and helpful throughout our stay. I highly recommend this place if you’re visiting Houston!
