Stayed in the Lighthouse Suite at Casa Del Mar. It was just like the pictures. We had a good time. Stayed there so that we could be on the beach before taking a 5 hour drive up to watch my Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day. Too long a drive for just the game from Michigan. If anyone comes from the east, make sure you use the directions supplied and take the ferry, forget the GPS instructions.

I just want to compliment CasaBling on their property. It was gorgeous,clean,the decor was up-to-date and the view of the gulf was awesome.I would recommend this property to anyone that appreciate sitting and watching mother nature at work. By the way we stayed at the property that was called The Tuscan Sun. The two pools that it offered was nice as well.The property was close to all the activities we had on our agenda. This place would be the ideal spot for families with children.I rate this a top pick for whenever I return to Galveston. Thanks also goes out to Jay&Taz for making me and my family feel welcomed.

Jay saved the day!!!
We almost had our entire vacation ruined because we booked a "beach house" with another rental company. The original place that we had booked was a complete dump and unsafe. We were basically stranded and considered scrapping our vacation and driving back up to Dallas.
Thankfully I found CasaBling and Jay! Even though it was not super convenient for Jay he got us into the Island Dream house for a wonderful six night stay. He even worked overtime on a Sunday to help us out! Our family was so thankful for his hard work and for the great vacation rental.
Island Dream house is a great place to stay, the inside is very nice and cozy. I enjoyed all of the fun art and quirky touches of the decor. It was the perfect location for us--3 blocks from the beach, a couple blocks to the Bishops Palace and then a few more blocks to get the most delicious cinnamon rolls ever--Sunflower Cafe & Bakery.
I highly recommend CasaBling and the Island Dream house. Next time we come to Galveston I'm calling Jay!

We just stayed at the Palm Suite at Casa Del Mar and it was wonderful. Jay worked a miracle for my family, we had booked somewhere else and never received cofirmation so at the last minute Jay came to the rescue and saved our vacation with the grandbabies. The condo was clean and great & the kids loved sleeping in the bunk beds. The view was wonderful along with the pool. You could not ask for a better location. We will be back for sure. Thanks again for making our vacation possilbe and fun.

We just stayed in the "Paradise Courtyard" home. It was just as the pictures represent it. The place was fabulous with a great location to everything. The pool was refreshing after a day around town and just the perfect size for a family with small children. Thanks for such a wonderful week.

Thanks again for coming out so quickly to get us back into the bathroom!(my 3 yr old daughter locked us out) I will defintely contact you guys again when we return to Galveston.

Could not have asked for a better place to stay. The location was perfect, the view was incredible, and the pool was a tropical paradise.

The condo was clean, neat and organized.I was also impressed that cleaning supplies and a vacuum were available. With my 1 year old around that definitely came in handy.We surely will visit again.

My son, daughter, and I enjoyed our stay at Casa Del Mar, the week of Spring Break 08; the condo was very conveniently located to all of the attractions in Galveston, plus the fact it is right across the street from the beach; the convenience of the traffic light was certainly a plus. We would stay at CasaBling's properties again.

We has a great time at the lighthouse suite at Casa Del Mar. The suite was very clean and nice. There were plenty of towels and the beds were already made. The Casa Del Mar people were very nice and kept the whole place very clean. There are 2 pools which made it nice at night when it was to dark to go on the beach. Thanks and hope this helps to keep renting out your property.

Just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay at Pearl of the Isle! There were 7 of us and we had plenty of room to spread out and be comfortable. The beach was within walking distance and was a wonderful experience for our children who had never been to the ocean before. It was like home away from home and if we ever come that way again, we know where we will be staying! Thanks!
