About this property

Beachfront Retreat with Panoramic Ocean Views

Look no further— you’ve found it. The Estate is simply the most spectacular home on Jamaica Beach. With seven bedrooms, there’s enough luxurious square footage to host up to 26 people with ease. With panoramic ocean views, an outdoor shower, a grill, outdoor fire pit, and the only private boardwalk down to the beach, The Estate will transport your family and friends directly into the Texas beachfront vacay of your dreams.

The wide-open, multi-level living space features a dramatic floating glass staircase and floor-to-ceiling windows with direct ocean views. Plenty of seating and a flatscreen television make a comfy spot for hanging out with your crew. You’ll find yourself pulled outside again and again through the glass doors to the huge oceanfront deck overlooking the Gulf of Mexico. Relax here with an ice-cold drink while you listen to the sound of the waves against the sand, the call of coastal birdsong, and the gentle offshore breezes rustling the palm trees. Take a deep breath, and feel all your stress wash away with the tide.

The massive kitchen features gleaming quartz workspaces, stainless steel appliances, and a massive sub-zero refrigerator. There is plenty of seating for meals between the kitchen island and dining tables (both inside and out on the deck).

With seven generous bedrooms, there’s enough space for everyone to find some privacy. On the ground level sits a fun bunk room detached from the main house, with 2 full over full bunk beds and a twin over twin bunk. There are four bedrooms up the stairs on the main floor. The first bedroom has a king-size bed. The second bedroom— dubbed the Whale Room— has a full-over-full bunk bed with an attached trundle. The third bedroom is called the Mermaid Room and features a twin-over-twin bunk bed and a twin-over-full bunk bed with an attached trundle. The Whale Room and the Mermaid Room share a full jack-and-jill bathroom. The fourth sleeping space on the main floor is a queen sleeper sofa in the library.

On the upper level, the sumptuous master suite will take your breath away. A king-size bed faces a wall of floor-to-ceiling windows that frame a stunning view of the sea. Wake up each morning to this gorgeous view, take your morning coffee out to the upper-level deck space, and watch a cotton-candy-pink sunrise light up the sky. A huge en suite bathroom has a glass-enclosed shower and a soaking tub. Another bedroom on this level has a full-over-full bunk with an attached trundle, a full-size bed, and an attached bathroom.

When your crew is ready to hit the beach, simply make your way down the private wood boardwalk, slip out of your flip flops, and sink your toes into the warm, sugary sand. At The Estate, you’re never more than a few steps away from salty skin and sandy toes. All of the stress of packing up for a beach day— sunscreen, ice, snacks, towels, toys, drinks, ugh!— simply disappears here.

In the evening, serve up fresh seafood from the gas grill and then gather around the beachfront fire pit— think gooey s’ mores for the kids and frosty cocktails for the adults. A convenient outdoor shower is ideal for rinsing off sun-kissed skin. Ready to go exploring? The Jamaica Beach Pool and Splash Pad, Pleasure Pier, and the Strand are only a quick hop-and-a-skip away.

Gather your friends and family together for a magical, memory-filled beach vacay at The Estate. Spoiler alert— you may never want to leave!

Learning history of Galveston

Spectacular and breathtaking view when you walk up the stairs and see the ocean out of the large panoramic windows for the first time. High end appliances and finishes. Large areas and lots of bedrooms, all with an amazing view. Overall the exterior could use a fresh coat of paint or stain with a few touchups of interior paint, and the flooring could be updated perhaps with luxury vinyl tile. These are only suggestions and does not affect the overall view or vacation experience. I would recommend and would stay there again.

Better than we could have hoped for

My kids and I took a family vacation together and we had the best time. There were 19 of us and the house never felt crowded. Everything we needed was available. Even though it was so hot we were able to sit on the deck everyday and it was so nice with a nice breeze. We didn’t have any issues until the last day. We weren’t able to open the lockbox. Russell was quick to respond and give us a solution. We would definitely stay again. The access to the beach was the best thing about the house and the view from the master bedroom was amazing. Give this house a try. You won’t regret it.

Great views and location ti beach only

This place could be fantastic except for the fact it needs a lot of work. Ceilings in dining room , kitchen and one if the bed rooms are a mess. There's missing tiles in one of the bathrooms. Railing outside is dangerously loose. We encountered ants and bugs in kitchen and dining room. Washer and Dryer are old and dryer barely drys clothes. Ice machine does not work. Double oven does not work. Towels are dingy and cheap. No lights on outside stairs, outside electric plugs does not work. Someone is letting this place run down. Some areas are ok but the amount of money we paid except for the deck and views this place was disappointing.

This home needs maintenance attention badly

I was very disappointed in this home. The pictures online do not match the current shape of this house! There was mold and water damage all over the walls in the Whale room, the bunk beds are flimsy with thin mattresses on the floor on the bottom bunks, several drywall area imperfections that need to be addressed. The house was also very dirty upon arrival and after the cleaning service came the floors were still dirty. I paid allot of money and I feel I got taken advantage of by false advertisement of the houses true condition. The AC unit filters were so dirty that we had to take the filters out for the AC to function. This house was supposed to be an Estate, but instead was a state of dissapointment

Not as Advertised

Sadly this home is not as it appears online.The home is in great disrepair. It was advertised as a luxury home, and we were willing to pay a premium price for such a home to house our large family.However this is not a luxury home.The location is amazing. But the home was dirty, (don't think the ceiling fans have ever seen a duster),cobwebs in the cabinets.Dirty dishes and silverware in the drawers and cabinets.The floors were dirty, not only sandy, but sticky. Many things in disrepair, faucet handle came off, had to hold it just right to turn on the shower. A drain pipe under the sink in a bathroom wasn't attached,so flooded the lower cabinet. (my husband tightened it, as best he could, and we didn't use the sink anymore) There were lots of roaches. I understand the gulf coast and roaches, but I also know with regular exterminators coming in, the problem can be helped.Internet worked on the first day, then was out, called BeachBox, said they'd call me back but didn't. Sand and mud washed up on drive from the hurricane hasn't been cleared off, so it was impossible to not track sand into the house.Bedroom with hideabed is not a bedroom,shouldn't be advertised as such.Kitchen is well stocked with silverware, plates and glasses.3 coffee makers,1 works, Disposal sounds like it's on it's last leg.Bare sheetrock on the mainfloor ceilings, many beds, mostly bunkbeds, could use another bathroom for as many people who can sleep.House feels old.Very unkept.We're very disappointed.

This beach house is horrible - save your money

I rented this house for my wedding weekend. Unfortunately it rained the day of my wedding but worse than the rain were the leaks in every room on the main floor of the house. We used every towel in the house to mop up water and had pots and bowls collecting water as it came through windows, the ceiling and light fixtures. Obvious patch jobs could be seen after the rain. This house is not being maintained Now 3 weeks later no one will respond to my concerns or contact me about this horrific experience. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this rental.

Spacious home

The home is spacious. Great gulf view. We had a great time.I was expecting a more private beach, this home is on a public beach area.A couple of things missing from the listing.No gas grill as shown under the “outdoor” equipment, we had to go back to the store to buy charcoal.Home is listed as 7 bedrooms, 4 bath. The home has 6 bedrooms and 4 baths. We were provided with a list of items included during our stay, some items missing, such as no cleaning supplies in the kitchen, toilet paper missing in master bathroom. After contacting the property manager, they delivered the supplies missing. The home needs a little TLC. Some construction items were left on the deck. One of the patio doors from a bedroom to the deck was boarded up, so no beach view from that room. Some unpleasant bugs in the home, we were told that was to be expected when you’re in this climate. We have stayed in several homes in the past in Galveston, beachfront, and no bugs.

Great location ON THE BEACH

This property has several important assets. First of all, it really is ON THE BEACH. So easy to have kids in and out of the house on and off of the beach all day. Second great asset is spacious. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out and have a space for their crew. Third great asset is lots of table space. We had a group of 7 adults and 10 children. Plenty of beds. My suggestion would be replace the room with one double bunk with a queen bed. Plumbing etc could use a bit of stability. But overall, we had a fantastic stay. Nice weather helped.

A Little Underwhelmed

We were a little disappointed in the condition of the place based what we had seen on the photos. I realize the hurricane caused some of the decorative issues, but none of the things we experienced were mentioned as a problem had communicated. In fact, we were told it was good to go. There are a number of issues that need to be addressed: The A/C for the upstairs did not work well and needs maintenance. The various portable fans around the house do not work or are missing the power cords. The door handle to the jack-and-jill bathroom comes off. The GFCI plug on the back porch is not functioning. Lots of utensils, but no hotpads or trivets. A couple of the deck chairs are broken. The firepit is unusable. Wifi doesn't reach the downstairs bunk room. Yes, this is a long list and probably overwhelming. Apparently many (or all) of these things have been a problem before as they are on the reviews. So, maybe shame on us for not reading the reviews more thoroughly. It's nice being right on the beach, but it's also very near a public entrance. We felt the need to put our stuff out early just to ensure we had a space in front of the house. Overall, for the price you are paying, it's more about having the rooms and beds rather than staying in a nice place. Don't expect a very nice place and you won't end up being disappointed.

Horrible

Beautiful home in the photos listed not the same place in person floors were very dirty house reminded me of a party house for large groups. Lots of damage to the ceiling issues with mold plug-ins not working only positive was beautiful view. The house was very nice property before like in the photos, but has definitely been neglected. We never took our sandals off due to not feeling clean. I only wish it would let me post photos. Was told to put the trash in the trash cans, but they were overflowing .The grill was completely rusted out not usable at all. Does not look like they’ve cleaned up since the last storm hit sad because this property could be one of the nicest on the island , When I sent messages to the property manager, only thing I got back was check out is at 11. If you leave early, please let us know. If you’re looking for cleanliness, this is probably not the property for you👎👎👎

Disappointed

The house is large but in need of LOTS of repairs. Many of the lights and fans inside and outdoors we were never able to get turned on. When we arrived at the property, one of the A/C units was not working at all. The refrigerator and freezer were not working properly, they were not cooling and we lost a lot of the food we purchased for meals. We had repair people in the house three times, trying to get the problems rectified. The kitchen is very poorly stocked for cooking. No pot holders at all. Very few bowls. The blender did not work at all. The entire deck is in need of many repairs and a good cleaning. The second day we were there, the latch to the gate pulled tight out of the wood and had to be repaired. There is a vent for a humidifier on the balcony that has no cover on and our toddler got hurt because of it not being properly maintained for safety. When using the washer and dryer, we discovered that the dryer vent was not connected and the hot air and lint was being vented into the house. The floors in the house were not clean when we arrived. We spent lots of time just weeping up sand. There are no blankets for any of the beds. Some of the bedrooms do not get good air for from the A/C. There were several stand alone fans in the house but none of them worked. The communication with the property manager was prompt and most of our issues were taken care of quickly. We were very disappointed for the money psid with the condition of the home.
