The owners of this property take great care of their home. It's very evident that it is owned by individuals and not an investor. The beds are great! The sheets were so soft. Everything worked great! Its lovingly maintained. The vibe is great. Its better than the photos!

The house was super clean - spotless and as pictured. Check in was easy and the house had everything needed for an enjoyable stay. My grandkids enjoyed swimming at the house and there were toys and yard games for them as well. There was easy access to the beach as well as to the neighborhood pool. We had a relaxing trip and would definitely stay here again. The Hinojosa's were wonderful host.

The house was spotless and exactly as advertised. Everything we needed--and more--was provided. My husband loved fishing off of the canal dock and our daughter enjoyed kayaking. Even our dog, Molli, enjoyed her stay! The owners were responsive and very accommodating; we felt welcomed and cared for!

We had the best time the property is located in a great location! The house is decorated very tastefully and the amenities are amazing. Fishing off the deck and watching the sunsets were some of our favorites. Liz was very accommodating and even allowed for a late check-out. Highly recommend this vacation rental!

One of the best places I've ever stayed. It was absolutely spotless and the décor matched everything well. The pictures matched exactly and honestly doesn't give enough credit. If you want someplace secluded to relax with friends or family I've yet to see or experience anywhere better.

The Poco Bueno is an amazing home. It was very clean and well equipped. We loved the upper and lower decks. It’s very family and kid friendly. Close to the beach and not far from Galveston. It’s a peaceful home! We highly recommend it. The amenities were great!

Charming beach house in a perfect location for crabbing, fishing, and beach exploring. We brought our son and his family from Colorado to the coast. This home met all the needs for a family of eight with an age range of 72 - 2 years old! We even managed to squeeze a trip into Galveston to visit the Strand and do some shopping and eat seafood. Our stay was memorable because we were able to be together at this wonderful place.

We enjoyed our stay at Poppo’s House! Beautiful & clean home and plenty of room for everyone! Loved all the porches and “understory” with TV .. Avery relaxing time! Gave us some great ideas for our “future beach house.” ❤️

I booked a quick weekend stay at Casa Poco Bueno for our group of 5. The home was adorable with a nautical/ beachy decor that really added to the relaxing vibe. The accomdations were wonderful! The property owners are excellent communicators and very gracious. We enjoyed taking our boat out for evening sunsets and fishing excursions, swimming, dining local and simply spending time with family! As an added bonus, having our fur-family members with us was great! We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others!

We all had a great time at this property over the Christmas holiday's. The house was the perfect size, well stocked with kitchen items. Super clean and well kept. I really enjoyed the big deck and downstairs sitting areas. Not a complaint, but it would have been nice to have a few extra blankets especially since it was cold :)

The beach house was perfect for our family. It was clean and had all the amenities of home and then some. The kids loved the kayak and the separate restroom in the bunkbed room. The canal behind the house was the perfect view to watch the pelicans in the evening and watch the kids play. The location is just a golf cart ride to the beach and also convenient to the local store and restaurant. We recommend staying here for any occasion. Thank you Elizabeth & Michael!
