We loved this house! Right on the water as the pictures show. The patio furniture was nice, we spent a lot of our time on the huge deck upstairs. The area was quiet which we appreciated. The pool was awesome, our kids really enjoyed it. Drive on beach is right outside the neighborhood which was super convenient. Located about an hour from other attractions like Kemah Boardwalk and the Tanger Outlet Mall. House was pretty clean, beds were decently comfortable and the AC kept it nice and cool. We didn’t realize there was a whole separate bedroom and bathroom downstairs, we didn’t need it but would be cool for larger groups. If we ever came back to Jamaica Beach, we would stay here again!

Thank you so much for sharing your experience and for the kind words about the house, pool, deck, and quiet location.

We appreciate your note about the separate downstairs bedroom and bathroom and will look into making that layout clearer in our listing. It means a lot that you would choose to stay here again if you return to Jamaica Beach.

Such a great place to stay! The house was very clean and located just a few mins away from the business of Galveston’s sea wall. It’s on the water and the dock has a fishing light where the fish were biting most nights. Kids had a blast swimming in the pool, or the little cove of West Bay. We even rented a jet ski for a full day and could conveniently come and go with easily accessible boat dock located not too far inside the no wake zone. One of the bedrooms is downstairs and completely separate from the rest of the home which was perfect for our traveling family of wife, kids, dog, and also my mom. We had a blast and would absolutely stay here again without hesitation. The local West End Pizza place and Waterman’s Restaurant were both excellent places to eat and less than 5 mins or less from the property.
