Such a great stay. The house was spotless and really well set up—simple, comfortable, and thoughtfully done. The bed and linens felt like a 5-star hotel, which we loved. Easy walk to the beach made everything feel relaxed and easy. Would definitely come back.

The beach house is wonderful with thoughtful amenities, comfy couch and very clean. The kitchen is nicely stocked and we enjoyed cooking a shrimp boil with fresh seafood from Buddy’s in town. The beds are super comfortable. Just a short walk over the dunes to the beach or drive your 4 wheel drive vehicle onto the beach, but get your beach pass at Stanley’s first. Our grandson had a great time with the beach toys. We added a frisbee to the collection. Highly recommend the Lazy Coconut.

This was one of the best vacation rentals we have rented in a long time. Very modern, smart home, spotlessly clean, easy check in and out. Kitchen had everything including plenty of coffee, spices, etc. Beds were very comfortable. Wonderful showers. We highly recommend it for anywhere from two to six people.

Extremely clean, tech friendly, plenty of kitchen utensils to cook up that perfect coastal meal, extra towels, beach gear, everything was problem free. We went for a Mother’s day retreat and the host even left a card and bottle of champagne for the occasion. This is a very well managed property that is family friendly. 10Rating from me!

This house was perfect. It was very clean inside and outside. Kitchen was stocked with pans and all the things needed. Extra paper towels and plenty of trash bags. Bedrooms were clean and spacious and had ceiling fans in each room. It had extra towels and beach towels. The owners were very prompt on communication and check in and out was very simple. Would definitely stay there again.

This property was fabulous. The hosts had everything you could imagine to make our stay wonderful and were very responsive if contacted. The house is beautifully appointed and the beds were very comfortable. This house has a short walk across the dunes to the beach. There is even a fish cleaning station outside. We will definitely be back. Matagorda has beautiful beaches with lots of shells and you can drive on the beach (if you have 4-wheel drive). If you have a little one or a pet they have all you need for them too. Great house, great location! Go Gorda!

Our stay at The Lazy Coconut was fantastic! The property was exactly as described and pictured. The owners thought of everything, down to the smallest detail, to make our stay comfortable. The house was pristine clean and very well maintained. Bedrooms are very comfortable, the bathrooms are well laid out, and the closets are spacious with plenty of hangers. The floor plan is an open concept and is perfect for families. The decor is nicely done and perfect for a bay house. The wrap around deck has great views from every direction, plenty of furniture, and has a retractable gate for little ones or small pets. The driveway and under house areas are spacious and easy to park a boat and multiple vehicles. Beach access is close and the beach is beautiful and clean. The outside shower is great for rinsing off and cleaning beach gear. A lot of thought went in to making this house comfortable for guests. Definitely one of our favorite VRBOs we’ve stayed in and we’ll most certainly be back for another stay.

Had everything you needed. Sitting out on the deck was very nice. It was covered so the rain didn't bother us. Having the coffee pods and creamer was a bonus. Walking to the beach was easy, just don't leave your shoes alone. Sister had hers taken, 1st time in over 30yrs coming to Matagorda. This is the best place we have ever rented down here. Awesome people!

This house was the best I have stayed at in Matagorda. Everything from appliances to bathrooms were upscale. The owners added thoughtful touches such as providing coffee, laundry detergent, shampoo/conditioner and so much more. The closeness to the beach was convenient and we had a view of the ocean. My husband liked that it had a fish cleaning station and room for his boat. Communication with the host was excellent. I highly recommend the Lazy Coconut. We will definitely stay there again.
