Received the door code by email. Then on the way there I received a text message saying the door code I was given might not work so I was given a back up code. Arrived right as it starts to rain to find out neither of the codes I was given worked so we were stuck outside for about half an hour while we tried contacting the host or the property manager. Finally get a new code given to us to walk into a two level condo that’s set at 84 degrees. After being set at 72 for over 24 hours it finally brought the temperature down to 76 on the first level where everyone sleeps. When you walk in the second bedroom with the twin beds the floor feels like you will literally fall thru in spots. The beds were sunk 3-4 inches into the floor due to the floor being soft. Saying this place needs updating was a serious understatement. The inside walls in places look as if it was hit with a hurricane and cracked the supports in the walls. There’s soft spots all over the floors in different places. There was 2 cereal bowls and the master bedroom door to the deck looks like someone poured acid all over the door knobs and hinges from the salt water enough that you couldn’t open the door without the lock falling in to pieces due to corrosion. After sleeping all night in the 80 degree house the maintenance finally decided to bring over a window AC unit and put it in the master bedroom until they could get out the next day and replace the unit on the day before we left. Great location to private beach

Overall the property location for the price was good. Loved how easy it was to walk to the beach. Great views fromBalcony and crows nest! Couches need to be cleaned we did not sit on them cause they feel sandy and really dirty underneath. Tv volume never worked,trash was under the couches . 2 bags of bait fish was left under the balcony from previous renters. The bed sheets smelled like cologne and sweat so we don’t feel they were changed. The cleaners clearly didn’t do a thorough job at all. Crumbs on the kitchen table and floor from previous renters. Shower pressure is low and water only gets Lukewarm . Mainly whomever they hire to clean does an awful job!!!!

We enjoyed our recent trip and appreciated the townhouse's great location away from the crowds in Galveston and its close proximity to the beach. However, I am writing to share that the property description was not entirely accurate regarding the condition of the home.While the lack of updated appliances and countertops was not an issue for us, several other maintenance concerns were not mentioned in the listing: - Extensive water damage and missing or peeling drywall throughout the home. - Sagging floors in the second bedroom. - A broken master bed frame. - Return air vents covered in significant dust.We wanted to bring these issues to your attention so they can be addressed for future guests.
Hello Dana, thank you for your review! We're glad you and your furry companion enjoyed your stay and found the accommodations comfortable. We appreciate you choosing our pet-friendly home and hope to welcome you back again soon!
Hello Delia, thank you for your review! We’re glad you enjoyed the convenient location and having everything you needed close by. It definitely makes a stay that much easier and more enjoyable. We’d love to host you again anytime!
Rooms were clean. Could have used more towels and wash clothes. In the kitchen salt and pepper would be nice. Other then those little things everything else was great. Thank you
Double-Decker is a great place to getaway. The location is perfect…walking distance to an almost private beach but close enough to town for restaurants and exploring. They are so easy to work with. Thanks for a great birthday weekend.

Hi Kay, thank you so much for your kind review! We're really glad you chose Double-Decker for your birthday getaway. It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the location and the easy walk to the beach while still being close to town. We truly appreciate you staying with us and hope to welcome you back again for another relaxing trip in the future.
We recently celebrated my husband’s 40th birthday with a weekend getaway, and it was an experience to remember! We chose a lovely place that welcomed our dog, making it a truly family affair.From the moment we arrived, we felt relaxed and at home. The views of the Gulf from our balconies were breathtaking, providing a serene backdrop for our stay. The atmosphere was peaceful, allowing us to unwind and enjoy each other’s company fully.One of the highlights was the hospitality of our hosts. They were incredibly friendly and responsive, ensuring we had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. It’s always nice to feel welcomed, and they certainly made us feel that way.However, there were a couple of minor drawbacks. Upon our arrival, we noticed that a couple of towels were dirty, but thankfully, we had brought our own. Additionally, the kitchen chairs hadn’t been cleaned properly, as there were crumbs left from previous guests. While these issues were a bit disappointing, they were not enough to overshadow the overall enjoyment of our stay.In conclusion, despite the minor cleanliness hiccups, we had a fantastic time. The combination of stunning views, a relaxing atmosphere, and attentive hosts made it a perfect getaway for my husband’s milestone birthday. We’d definitely recommend this place to others looking for a peaceful retreat!

We go to Galveston fairly often and usually stay on the West End away from all the activity. We loved this townhome. It desperately needs to be updated but it is clean, the view is wonderful and the neighborhood is quiet. My only tiny complaint is that the info. said there was a hair dryer on the property so I didn't bring one, but there was not a hair dryer in any of the bathrooms.

Overall stay was good, however the cleanliness was not up to par. There were random hairs around the house, in one of the towels on the primary bed, on the counter in one of the bathrooms and in the kitchen. Location was great but the cleanliness took it down a notch for sure.

First- you can hear and see the ocean from the property which makes the property location amazing. Communication was clear and helpful throughout the stay which was so helpful. The house has cosmetic issues like broken drawers, old king size bed that makes for a rough night of sleep, bathroom drains that don’t work, and kitchen countertop and drawer issues. Honestly if the bed was replaced - the location would be enough for me to stay again.
We truly enjoyed our stay at Jamaica beach. The neighborhood is quiet, but you are still close enough, about 15 minutes drive, to Galveston. You see the beach from all the balconies, dining room and bedrooms. The house is very spacious, just make sure you are ok with climbing stairs. The walk to the beach is only 1 minute, which makes it helpful if you forgot something or want to take a quick break from the sun. We felt comfortable and safe leaving our chairs and beach toys when going back to the house for lunch or breaks.

We’re especially happy you felt comfortable and safe throughout your stay. We'd love to welcome you back for another relaxing getaway anytime!
The place was amazing. Easy walk to the beach. Location is about 15 minutes from all the good stuff. The beach was great, mostly families. Quiet area with none of the drama you get by the Seawall. Bait shop across the street, and a block away a great little store that even sells fresh shrimp. The place was well appointed, has everything you’ll need. Highly recommended.

We really enjoyed our short stay near the beach. It was an easy 2min walk down to the beach. The property was as described and our only issue was that we couldn’t get the TV to work. We did call the property management company and they gave us some suggestions, but we ended up just connecting to my laptop to stream movies. It wasn’t really a big deal since we don’t watch a lot of TV. The kitchen is a bit dated, but they say that in the description so we expected it. We loved that we could walk to the Seven Seas grocery store for coffee and snacks and the local restaurants were pretty good, too. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay!

Loved the place and location. The only issues were thr plug ins in the bathrooms didn’t work...and we tried the switches. If there is a trick to this it would be nice to know. The shower in the small bathroom was set so it wouldn't run hot. The sound bar for the TV didn't have batteries...but luckily we figured it out and there were batteries in the drawer. A description of how to work it and connect may be helpful to others. The lawn furniture on the deck was dirty so we hauled it downstairs ti hose it off. One of the Adirondack chairs was broken when we got there...that should be discarded. The tub in the main bath wouldn't drain unless the stopper was held up. You have to watch the toaster or your toast will burn...no matter the setting. Just FYI...there are bird building a home under the building. Overall...we had a great time!

No what we expect.
This weekend I message the property manager more than my family in a week. About the storage room with rats and rats poop (I sent pictures).The fridge is all rusty and one side. The wifi very unstable.The tv didn't work until somebody came to work on it and we work on sound after. The main bedroom doesn't have curtains so the mornings were to early for a vacation. The grill was clean so we decided to eat outside but something changed our minds, was the foul smell coming from the concrete floor under the house staircase, some water was coming out and smell terrible. So before we left and checked the binder with the rules and two hours after I received an email with differents clean up instructions. We invited our friends to stay with us and wasn't what we expect.
