House was great especially when traveling with children! We let the kids (ages 8-22) have the bottom floor and adults slept on the top floor. House had all the essentials! We rented a golf cart (ricks beach rentals) to go back and forth to the beach which was less than a 5 minute drive! Great area!

Stay was great for us. Only have a few things I would like to say about it. Ceiling fans cannot be used at night because the lights are connected to on switch. When lights turn off, the fans turn off. Although it is 4 bedrooms, it’s a little cramped, in case you want space. When you are upstairs, you can hear everything going on downstairs. There is a staircase inside the house that goes to bottoms floor, but it is very narrow with steep stairs. And the 2 bedrooms downstairs are right next to each other, so not a lot of privacy. It worked out great for our family, none of us really had any problems, and communication was great with the management. Only wished the fans would have worked while we were sleeping.

The only issues we had was no grill but it was resolved over night. The bedroom up stairs next to the master has really loud wind noise when the door is closed that can be heard in both the bedroom and living room. A simple vent in the door would resolve that issue. It’s the a/c fan pressure making the noise.

JAMAICAN BEACH HOUSE
The house was not accuratly depicted as the pictures showed online. It looked online like a 4 bedroom, but it was actually 3 bedroom. With no privacy. Two of the rooms were joined with only 1 entrance. The home was not clean. There we r beer cans by the pool, debris in the pool and trash in the yard. The pool was actually only a 2 ft tall kid pool that looked like a horse trough. The dishes were dirty. It was not the quality I would expect for the money that I paid.

“Our Gathering Place”
This sign is displayed in the living room and encompasses the vibe of this beach house. There is ample room to entertain 2 parental units upstairs; with a nice kitchen to cook and huge wooden table, to converse, while the kids enjoy their own private space downstairs; with 2 bedrooms & enough beds for all of them. A cute, secret spiral staircase will connect them to mom & the food upstairs. The backyard is fenced in for safety & the wrap around deck will give the parents plenty of eyes on the kids, as they frolic in the cowboy pool, after going to Jamaica Beach, which is less than a 1/2 mile away. I came for just a visit, but next time I’ll stay to play!

I would say the only thing negative that we can think about the house is that spiral cell case is way too small for everybody in our group except for the two smallest people the swimming pool is not heated so we couldn't use it which was very disappointing we wanted to do midnight soaps together and then for kitchen utensils there's a lack of quality spatulas and other serving devices but overall the entire house served our needs we are very happy with it it was a very good stay

Don’t rent from beach box
Absolutely horrible to deal with, our stay was affected by hurricane Beryl, unable to even make it to the house due to flooding and no power in the entire city. This company flat out refuses to refund. This happened to all customers who rented during that time. They refused all refunds only offered to move date to the next week. Very rude customer service and no one in the US can you speak with.
