Matagorda is noted for it's great beach, fishing & birding. You can drive on 20 miles of beach. Fishing, shelling and birding is always good. This is not like Galveston with herds of people. The only herds are cattle that you may see behind the beach grazing on winter grass.
All you have to bring is food, beach towels & your favorite toys. Kitchens are fully furnished, with enough supplies for several days. Condos are right next to the club house and pool. Just walk out your door and cross the bridge. You are just a short walk to the sand dunes, cross them and you are on the beach or you can get a beach permit from the local stores and drive on the beach.

The online roces was simple and quick. Condo management reach via text and email. The condo estate is gated with a code. The condo was well maintained and clean. The condo is right off the beach! My family has rented from this area 4 times.
Loved the property and the pool! So quiet and peaceful! We brought our own food and cooked the whole time because we knew there weren’t many restaurants that were close. It was perfect!
Our family took a quick before school beach vacation and decided to stay at this wonderful condo. The location is great as it is right by one of the local beaches. Not walking distance necessarily, but you can drive there in less than 2 mins. The condo also has a great pool that you can chill at all day. Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would recommend to anyone interested in a beach getaway.
The stay was very nice. We enjoyed almost having the pool to ourselves the entire trip. We were close enough to the beach to walk and the river was on the other side of the main road so access to great fishing from both directions. Throughly enjoyed our stay
My Fiancé and I needed a quick getaway that wasn’t too far from home and this beach condo was perfect. Location to beach was so convenient and the fully stocked kitchen and amenities were so nice when preparing our dinner. The mattress was so comfortable - need to get the brand! John was very communicative and helped me through questions in directions, how to work the lock and what I needed to do to get Netflix on the TV. We enjoyed watching the sun set on the back patio. Definitely recommend for anyone that wants a clean well decorated cozy space conveniently located to the beach.
At first glance, we weren't quite sure if the grandkids would enjoy being so far away from everything. There are no rollercoasters, arcades or fast paced "entertainment" options. We were in town for our 6 year old to run in the Jr. Olympics in Houston. We were 2.5 hours from the meet and it was so nice to leave the chaos and come back to the quiet! We swam EVERY day in the gorgeous pool and we spent lots of time at the beach. The kids are 6 and 4 and they absolutely loved our time at Matagorda. We took a day trip to Galveston which was a blast! Our favorite food was cooking fresh seafood at home from Buddy's. PS Love the decor!!
If you are looking to get away from it all, then this is your place! The remote condo offers a great view of the community pool and ocean. Be prepared to make full use of the kitchen (which is well stocked with dishware) as some of the handful of restaurants in Matagorda are closed and one burnt down... leaving Bay City (30 mins away) as the primary source for groceries and restaurants. The kayak and watersports business also closed in the last year and the kids got bored of just the pool and the beach after about 4 days. The only real detractor was the millions of mosquitos in the area, that seemed immune to the copious amounts of off we applied to ourselves. The local residents said this was due to an inordinate amount of rain this year. Overall a 4/5 star rating for us.
Very close to the places we wanted to go and nice on site amenities!

Matagorda condo
Had a glitch on getting into condo somehow our reservation was mixed up with another unit which was occupied. Owner replied
to my text. Only said I'm driving, and I sent you all info via email. Which I never received. My brother called from his phone and he answered after the first ring. This was disappointing especially when the mosquitoes were carrying us away. The unit had been leaking and carpet was wet. Of course it needs attention. Hopefully we'll have better luck next time.
The property was excellent. Very close to pool and very short ride to beach. The kids had a ball playing in the surf all day. We were able to get a beach pass to drive on beach. It was so special to build a small fire at night and share samosas with the grandkids. Probably due to COVID, there was not many places to dine out.
Our stay at this house has been very pleasant for the week that we’ve rented it. The interior to the building was well designed and comfortable enough for my family to settle in. The location is also great for everything. Would definitely stay again!
Our family enjoyed our stay at this condo, had everything we needed and more. Very clean. Great location. Great communication with property management. Will definitely come back in summer.
It was exactly what we’d hoped for. A comfortable place for our whole family to enjoy the beach. The kitchen had all the right supplies, kids enjoyed the board games, the deck was marvelous for catching the sea breeze. Proximity to the beach makes this condo an excellent choice!
Super quiet, GREAT BEACH, lots of coastal birds, all the kitchen equipment we could ask for, love the Bahia, and John was checking in and accessible throughout our stay.
