About this property

RightOnTheBeachVR - FRONT ROW Jamaica Beach 4BR/3bth, Stunning Views, Huge Decks

Gorgeous, Front Row, vacation rental is truly RIGHT ON THE BEACH, thus the name: "RightOnTheBeachVR." The backyard of this beach house is literally the beach!

Best Location in Galveston: family-friendly Jamaica Beach. The beach is literally just steps from the rear of this amazing home! Sit on one of the huge decks and watch the kids play on the beach.

Remodeled in 2024.

This large 2,100 square foot home is unique because its all on 1 level. And it’s located on a large lot (1/3rd acre), so there is lots of room for the kids to play outside while you enjoy privacy, space, & unobstructed Gulf views.

The massive decks, which extend all around this house, are huge - over 1,300 sf of total deck area (with plenty of shaded areas) - so all can enjoy. The main rear deck on the main level is very spacious - 50 ft long & 12 ft deep. That’s 600 sq ft! Ands there’s plenty of shade. Also it couldn’t be any closer to the soothing Gulf waters. Plus there's a large upper "Captain's Deck" with incredible, unobstructed ocean views.

Sleeps 14 (3 kings, 2 Fulls & 6 Twin beds). There are 5 bedrooms & 3 bathrooms. Three of the bedrooms are very large.

All beds are have newer, high quality mattresses.

This home is located in beautiful and family-friendly Jamaica Beach. You can't beat the location - just 10 mins from Galveston attractions, but in quiet, fun, safe, Jamaica Beach.

Open floor plan with updated furnishings everywhere.

The home’s interior has been fully remodeled. The decks & ungraded hurricane windows were upgraded as well.

Full washer & dryer in the laundry room.

New tankless hot water system.

There are 2 separate Air Conditioning systems. Both new as of Jan 2023.

Downstairs, additional outdoor hot & cold shower and stall for washing cleaning-up after returning from the beach.

Perfect for multiple families.

Well-equipped kitchen.

We supply beach towels as well as towels for showering. And we typically have a couple of Boogy-Boards and 4 beach chairs available. Plastic toys for the little ones are almost always available.

There's a BBQ grill for outdoor grilling (bring your own charcoal). Please bring your own charcoal briquettes and please discard the unused charcoals so that the grill is ready for the next guests. And pls don't throw your used charcoals in the yard.

Also, you do not need a golf cart as you are literally only about 20 steps to the beach.

In addition, Jamaica Beach Police frequently patrol the beach, so the beach area is always family-friendly and fun.

The owners have made numerous improvements, including premium vinyl plank flooring; new decks and handrailings; new fascia and soffits; new hurricane windows; new tankless hot water system; new solid core, 5 panel doors; new paint in & out; new textured granite (with a gorgeous peninsula slab); new big screen HD TV (with premium cable/Netflix/Amazon/Xbox One S w/ plenty of games for the kids and teens); Televisions in all 5 bedrooms; imported teak dining table & teak chairs; new lighting; new linens and towels; all premium bedding; fully stocked kitchen; and more.

Great little quiet place and beach!
Great stay. Fairly clean. Was missing a few things that we had to go buy: only had one dish towel, no dish rags only a sponge, only 1 extra garbage bag, no drying rack or mat for dishes. But the house was otherwise as listed. Wish we would have been warned about the mice/rats as not a big deal and I’m sure unavoidable but they got into all of our food. Plenty of towels and beach towels. Great view and access to the beach. Great layout for kids!

Beautiful setting
The house and location was perfect! Our own beach oasis. We were able to enjoy the view and some family games even though the weather was not as accommodating.

Perfect Family Beach Retreat
We absolutely loved our stay Right On The Beach! Sabrina is an excellent host who took care of us from check-in to check out.. honestly, Sabrina made our stay perfect! The house was amazing for our family of 11. The kids room was awesome for the grandkids and with 3 king bedrooms, all adults were very happy! The kitchen is huge, 3 bathrooms is a major bonus too! Obviously, the best is being Right On The Beach! We were in the water every day! We had a blast exploring Galveston. Fabulous restaurants and shopping! We were on a cruise the week before and this was a wonderful way to relax and have some quiet family time before going home! Thank you Sabrina! We will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Sabrina

Host profile image
My name is Sabrina. My husband Mike and I are parents, recent grandparents, and beach lovers.

I love visiting our beach house to relax, unwind, and have all of my worries washed away by the intoxicating sounds and aromas of the waves that are right off of our back deck.

I also enjoy decorating. And I wanted our beach house to be clean, bright, open, inviting, and family friendly.

Why they chose this property

We bought this beach house 5 yrs ago because we love being RightOnTheBeach! We fell in love with home's front row location as well as the open concept floor plan. And we think Jamaica Beach is the very best area in all of Galveston. It's close to downtown and yet is not overly crowded ... it's really the gem of Galveston. Most Galveston attractions are just 10 mins or so away.

We love walking right out the back and being on the beach in seconds. And we really enjoy talking long walks in the beach, barefoot, and walking in 6" or so of water for miles and miles. It's truly amazing

What makes this property unique

It's Right On The Water. The ocean is right in the backyard. Unobstructed Ocean/Gulf views are everywhere in this large open concept vacation rental called "RightOnTheBeachVR."

Plus this home is relatively large (about 2,100) and it's on ONE LEVEL. This means that you won't be climbing stairs continuously throughout your vacation (like you would in most other vacation rentals in Galveston).

There are some 14 steps to get up the main level. That's it ... there are no more stairs to climb (unless you're adventurous and want to go up to the "Captain's Deck," which is a secondary upper deck at the rear, or beach-side of the home). And there's plenty of shaded areas of the rear deck area.

Sitting on the massive decks and looking out at the unobstructed Gulf views is breath-taking! The sound of the waves is uniquely soothing and relaxing. Watching the kids and teens playing on the beach and in the water never gets old. Of course, we love going into the water and floating as the waves lift us up and over. On most days, you'll see lots of amazing pelicans.
