Adults will love the ambiance and tropical drinks at Rumshack, a beachfront palapa bar, an excellent sunset spot.

When you pull up to this cheerful Galveston vacation home, you'll find that you can conveniently park two vehicles in the driveway. Open up The Blue Flamingo’s garage door to reveal a ping pong table. You find plenty of beach accessories for your use in the garage including beach chairs, a collapsible wagon and a hard-sided cooler.

The perfect place to relax, The Blue Flamingo has plenty of space for everyone to sprawl out and be entertained. The privacy-fenced backyard gives kids a place to play while you keep an eye on them from the oversized patio furnished with cushioned chairs and a bar counter. Stock the outdoor mini-fridge with cold drinks and snacks and catch a game on the flat screen TV mounted above the bar. Ceiling fans keep you cool in the Texas heat. Enjoy a family cookout in the evening on the BBQ grill...the hanging lights let you stay outside even after the sun has gone down.

Inside, the open floor-plan of the great room, dining area and kitchen keep everyone connected. Grab a board game off the shelf and get ready for family fun. With ample seating including a sofa and oversized bean bag, there is a cozy spot for everyone. A wall-mounted TV streams your Netflix shows or bring your favorite DVDs from home. Free WiFi keeps your laptop or tablet connected; stream music, surf the internet or chat with ease. Prepare hearty breakfasts and quick lunches in the fully-equipped kitchen, stocked with top-of-the-line appliances, cookware and utensils. Grab a stool at the bar counter or have a seat at the dining table with bench seats.

Downstairs, you’ll find a sectional and oversized ottoman in the laid-back family room with private access to the backyard. A flat screen TV and arcade-style basketball make this a fun spot for kids of all ages.

Enjoy a good night’s sleep in one of the three bedrooms upstairs. The primary bedroom is outfitted with a plush king-size bed and flat screen TV for late night viewing. The second bedroom houses a queen-size bed. Kids will love having their own spot...the third bedroom features two twin beds, one having a small trundle and a cozy floor chair. Stocked with plenty of fresh towels, three full bedrooms make it easy for everyone to get ready for the day’s adventures without having to wait. There’s ample space to store all of your belongings at The Blue Flamingo, but feel free to pack light. The stacked washer and dryer make it easy to have clean clothes every day of your stay.
