Jamaica Joy Beach Side Cottage
This cute Beach Cottage is conveniently located on the beach side of Jamaica Beach, one block from the beach with no need to drive across the main road (San Luis Pass 3005) to be on beach. It is a very short walk (less than 250 feet) to Gym, Liquor Store, Bar, Grill / Pizzeria, Wine/Espresso Bar, Hardware store, Laundromat and Valero convenience store with a Redbox. The house is well equipped with amenities of a beach cottage. Enjoy the beach view while you relax, listening to the sounds of the ocean. Located on the west end of island away from the heavy hustle and bustle. If you chose you can have fun visiting other Galveston’s attractions: Schlitterbahn, Moody Gardens (Aquarium), Pleasure Pier for the kids or walk along the Historic Strand District and browse in the gift shops or indulge in the fine restaurants.

About the host
Hosted by Ponch
Long time lover of the Salt Life! Owners are an old Navy Corpsman and his amazing Wife. We lived many years in Austin near the Oasis. We have adopted their tradition of ringing a bell and sharing a " toast" at sunset from the top deck.
Why they chose this property
Friendly, quiet community away from the hustle and bustle of city life or your typical vacationer experience. Here it always feels like your own little sanctuary. Holidays and mid summer get busy but that's always the case at the beach.
What makes this property unique
Jamaica Beach is a quieter experience and a quaint community on west side of the island away from the super heavy tourist traffic. This is a family oriented area where you don't have to cross the busy street or drive to the beach. Almost everything you need for a relaxing vacation is located within walking distance from this cottage. There is a park in community with basketball court, playground, and a pool. There is Dollar General 1 mile east, and a grocery store 1 mile further west if you have forgotten something. There is a Grill/Pizzeria and a Wine Espresso Bar. Seafood with Shrimp & Stuff food truck, and Waterman's Restaurant all close by if you want to dine closer to the house.
What makes our home unique is the 3 levels to enjoy: 1) Bottom level for grilling with plenty of room to set up chairs and hang out , 2) Main house level / deck with table and chairs for dining while enjoying the view of the Gulf, 3) Top deck with amazing views of the gulf and sunsets over the bay. There is always a nice breeze on the top deck and we spend many hours up there enjoying the sounds of the waves long after the sun has set.
We lived many years in Austin near the Oasis. We have adopted their tradition of ringing a bell and sharing a " toast" at sunset from the top deck. Be sure to carry on the tradition and ring that bell!
