Stunning, clean home in a great location.
We would come back if…the oven was 100% working, the WiFi was not in and out (it is not due to being on an island as we go to Galveston often), and the pool was heated on arrival. That being said, the managing company was fantastic and the house amazing. I truly believe those things that weren’t working will be fixed. Oh and the beds were incredibly comfortable. The pool was heated eventually for us to use. Happy New Year!

Great place
Everything was awesome. Clean, comfortable, and beautiful views. Only two cons were this. We were down in October and pool was too cold to swim, even though it says heated pool. So kids didn't get to swim. They said only heats in winter months. Also, main tv in living room/kitchen area kept losing wifi and wouldn't work.

Relaxing Vacation - Close to beach
The property is beautiful and well decorated. The views from the covered porch are gorgeous and relaxing. kitchen is well stocked. Pool was heated and kept nice and warm. Perfect for our stay in March. Jamaica Beach is just across the Main Street - loved that you could park your car directly on the beach.
My only complaints were that the outdoor patio furniture and fire pits have been used heavily and were not in the best shape. Disappointed as we paid a lot of money to stay here and expected everything to be in good condition. Had a few small issues but the service team responded promptly to all requests.
Had a great spring break in Galveston with our family!

Family Gathering
The property was very nice. It’s a pretty home but the structure of the home didn’t work for us. I wanted my family altogether inside the home. The outside bedroom didn’t work. The open concept in the master bedroom didn’t work. The toilet was away from the sinks to wash your hands and you need to go to sleep at the same time or you’ll be waking each other up. No chairs in the rooms to watch TV (you’re always on the bed). The TV in the kitchen kept turning off. The stove wouldn’t turn on sometimes (very annoying). The heated pool was great with the kids and the fire pit was nice at night because it did get a little cool. But even with these comments this home is very nice. The location was nice and the community was very peaceful.

SB24
We are from Houston and just wanted a quick get away for 3 nights. It included my husband, myself, our dog, and 3 college boys. My son was home during SB - brought some college friends home with him. They all wanted a few days to hangout at the beach. They really enjoyed themselves. My husband was able to do some work online. We all enjoyed cooking, hanging out on the upstairs balcony, walking the dog in the neighborhood and driving over to the beach. The boys had plenty to do downstairs with the pool, canal, TV, music, paddle boards, fishing and playing games. The boys had their own rooms - beds were spacious and comfortable. The bathrooms were clean, updated and had plenty of room. The house is planned out very well. Everything seems brand new - furniture, appliances, bedding and linens. Downstairs in the garage - there are floats, cornhole game, 2 bikes (which we didn’t use but looked new), 2 paddle boards/ 2 oars, an outdoor fridge for drinks, a room with wash/dryer, extra fridge, and range/oven. There a bathroom with shower - a big bedroom with little AC unit. Upstairs were 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. There is also a laundry room in the master room. Kitchen was pretty well stocked with dishes etc. The yard and driveway are all enclosed. This was super nice for our dog and would be for small children. We had such a nice stay. It was an absolutely beautiful home. The location was perfect. We’d love to stay there again in the future.

Not wanted
Beautiful property on the water. This house is amazing. The problem is that residents of Jamaica Beach don’t like renters. They don’t want them there and have said so in town meetings. Now the Jamaica beach police department seems to be getting in on it writing petty parking tickets. I would not recommend visiting Jamaica Beach

Beautiful house, not small child friendly
Beautiful house! Great place for a weekend w/our kids and grandkids. Fishing and pool on property with great outdoor areas. Guests are not allowed to heat pool. The upper deck/porch was nicely furnished with nice view, however, some of the cables around the deck were loose and hanging, which created a safety hazard for our grandkids. Maintenance was supposed to fix when we reported it. Inside stairs- bring baby gate if you have little ones.

Super clean, perfect location
The house was beautiful and super clean with the perfect amount of room for 2 families. The pool was a perfect touch and my 4 year old daughter lived out her dream of watching the little mermaid while swimming with the pool side TV. It is close to all the restaurants and shopping but far enough to not have all the congestion of people. Extremely easy to go to the beach directly across from the community entrance. I've never slept in a more comfortable bed on vacation. We would love to come back!
