Gulf Pelican Villa - Oceanfront Luxury Oasis - Steps to the Beach & Fully Fenced

Welcome to Gulf Pelican Villa, Bolivar Peninsula’s newest oceanfront luxury villa. Perfectly secluded with incredible unobstructed ocean views and less than a minute walk down the wildflower studded path to direct beach access, it sits directly on the Bolivar Flats bird sanctuary, right next to the fishing jetty and boat ramp. This property is also conveniently located less than a mile away from the free 15 minute ferry that runs 24/7 for those wanting to venture over to Galveston Island for the day!

Fully fenced in for your convenience and security, which is a major plus for those guests bringing pets or young children. Upstairs has a newly built in BBQ with bar and unique sliding barn door shutters for privacy, as well as all new outdoor dining furniture including sun loungers and captain chairs perfect for catching the sunrises and sunsets from the spacious wrap around porch. Downstairs has an extra large built in picnic table that’s seats up to 10 just waiting for your next family crab/crawfish boil! There is even an outdoor sink with attached cleaning table for preparing your catch of the day.

Dual hammocks line the under deck right next to the private screened in porch perfect for a morning yoga session or an afternoon work zoom meeting. It includes oceanfront views from every room, all new high quality furniture, fresh paint, intimate lighting and coastal modern finishes to make you truly feel as though you have been transported to an exclusive luxury getaway from the city!

We also have a full family set of bicycles for cruising over to the beach along with an assortment of books and board games for those rainy days. Literally no detail has gone unlooked and you are sure to enjoy your stay to the fullest at GPV!

Absolutely perfect
This beautiful home is ensconced in birds of all kinds, engaging in bird ballet, located as it is on an estuary that provides such an amazing experience. The home itself is quite beautiful, comfortable and avails itself of extraordinary views of the estuary. As an added enhancement, communication with management could not have been more responsive and helpful. Couldn’t possibly recommend more highly for your utter enjoyment.

Amazing location / Extremely clean
What a beautiful place! Super clean and thoughtful layout/decor along with very accommodating hosts. We will definitely be back! The property looks over a bird sanctuary and there was endless opportunities to view many types of birds. Watching the ships come and go from the house was also a real treat. Walking distance to the jetty was perfect for sunset strolls and fishing. Definitely recommend!
