Oceanfront! Elevator, Unobstructed Beach Views!

Listen to those surf sounds and feel that breeze only the coast can create. The Boardwalk by the Beach is waiting for you! (Exterior and aerials photos shown taken Feb 2025)

The Neighborhood:
This home is located in a gated high-end neighborhood, The Boardwalk, with beachfront and 2nd row homes right in the heart of Jamaica Beach. It is walking distance to a few local restaurants, hardware store, gas station and coffee shop.

JAMAICA BEACH:
Jamaica Beach is a 979 Crew well-loved community located about 10 minutes from the heart of Galveston and is part of the island's desirable West End offering restaurants, grocery, and beach-worthy activities. Jamaica Beach has access to the Gulf side as well as the Bay side (house dependent) and also has its own fire and police department plus city park with pool. Jamaica Beach's boat launch is restricted. If you plan on bringing a boat, the closest public launch is at Waterman's off Stewart Road about 3 miles east of Jamaica Beach.

Getting Around:
WEST END AREA:
It's always Island "Vacation" Time on Galveston's West End!
Come visit and enjoy ALL the outdoor adventures you could want! Watch dolphins, fish from the pier (or from one of our canal, bay or beachside rental homes), surf the waves, kayak, beach comb and soak up the sun and sea air. And after a day of activities, stop by one of the nearby popular hangouts - The West End Marina & Restaurants, The Waterman Seafood Grill and/or Nate's West End for a fun atmosphere to enjoy snacks, cocktails or meal!

Other Things to Note:
HOSTED BY THE 979 CREW ADVANTAGE:
The 979 Crew is comprised of island locals who are passionate about making sure the home you chose is nothing short of clean, comfortable, and ready for your group's fun! Every home is fully and professionally cleaned after each guest stay. In addition, all of our homes feature luxury hotel-quality/high thread count on all sheets, bedding, and bath towels which are replaced upon every turnover including the duvet covers and shams (we've heard not every company does this, and we think that's just gross). We take clean seriously! When you rent a 979 home, you'll also receive the 'comforts of home' guest welcome starter supply of shampoo, shower gel, conditioner, tp and paper towels, dishwasher and clothes washer pods. We want your stay to be as easy as you do, and the 979 Crew aims to deliver on that commitment. We love our island guests!

WIFI/TV SERVICE:
Our properties include WIFI/Internet and TV service for your streaming services. Due to our location (Island living is a whole other way of life), service may be unpredictable or spotty, and repair times can be delayed. While we will do everything we can to ensure these items are in good working order before your arrival, please note, these services may not be as consistent as they are in your area. So grab your favorite people, ditch the electronics, and spend the day at our beautiful beaches!

A Perfect Escape For Memorial Day

This was a perfect escape for our Memorial Day Weekend. The house was beautiful and very well situated in the gated community so there was a buffer between us and the crowds. The bright kitchen was fun to cook in and well stocked and we were able to cook lovely meals as a family. The layout was also a big plus with the majority of bedrooms on the same floor. I would definitely stay again.

Nice property and great view...overall it was very good. The mattresses and pillows need to be upgraded. They don't match the quality of the house and all of us complained about being sore and our necks hurting and for me I have to include my back.

Outstanding Beach House

Location was super! Right on the beach with a walkway. House was supplied extra ordinarily. Huge bath towels. All kitchen supplies you could need were provided. Glasses, plates, silverware, cooking utensils, knives, were first class. Appliances were the best. The only thing missing was an ice machine. Elevator was so nice to have. Barbeque pit was super. Owners really provided an outstanding beach house.

Great location; prepare for insects

Located in a gated community, we were thrilled with the location of the home to the water/beach. Access was easy, with well maintained walkway. Exterior of home appeared to have slight damage from recent hurricane/weather - the drive was flooded upon our arrival. Be prepared for mosquitos. And lots of them. Canal behind home and flooding drew swarms and swarms of the little pests! For the most part, the home was clean. Towels and sheets smelled freshly laundered- baths and kitchen appeared clean at first look. However, we found lots of roach traps and sticky strips under sinks, inside cabinets and under furniture. Many of them were FULL of carcasses- yuk! I guess the lucky part was that all the large roaches we saw were dead - but they showed up each morning belly-up in random places. Air conditioning worked, but we had to keep bathroom doors closed and keep the storm shutters down during daytime to maintain a reasonable temperature for sleeping. The glass block -type window jb bathrooms only magnified the heat. Only one bedroom had places for us to unpack suitcases. Kitchen and dining were spacious, but first rental I’ve ever had when multiple cabinets were locked and unavailable for use. Multiple refrigerators and 1 range tops. Very convenient for cooking for our family of 12. Listing says there is a gas grill… it was charcoal so we had to last minute go out and buy charcoal. Unabailable for use.

Week Long- Family Birthday Trip

Amazing Home if it was properly maintained. 1st) No air conditioning in bedrooms. So Hot .We had air in the hall and 2 box fans so we decided to not lose a whole day of vacation while they fixed it. 2) Roaches Alive & everywhere huge on the walls ,under the beds...so many I vacuumed them up a number of times.They say they have tried to exterminate but it's not working! 3)No Hot water in kitchen, or guest bedrooms.They did finally come out the day before we left we were there a week. Cold showers! I called and received an answer then nothing, wrote again for an update? Nothing until Saturday. 4)Sparks coming from an outlet that we called about for safety. They came Unplugged...cords everywhere. 5)Plumbing inside tank went crazy and flooded the floor we cleaned that all up and turned off that water...glad we caught it! 6) Elevator in this house is a must, stopped working the first day. Fixed it before we left. 7) Air upstairs then stopped and to not lose MORE time of our vacation our Son said I think it's just the Thermostat So he drove to the store bought batteries he put back together and it worked hallelujah! Off to the beach. 8)When we first got there I stepped on a good size piece of glass in the dinning area bled on the floor able to pull it out! I vacuumed the whole house, we have little ones. I understand none of the beachfronts are perfect but this was pricey and at the top of my budget. Lost to much time. So disappointed!

Enjoyed the Home a Great Deal

We very much enjoyed our stay in this home. The home was very clean, but sadly there were dirty dishes in the cupboard. We didn’t complain; just threw them in the washer. We owned a rental and understand how this happens. The Portuguese Man of War on the beach were stunning but we saw a child in a great deal of pain. Our stay was perfect for what we wanted!

Not as clean as expected for the price

The house was mostly great, the view was fantastic. The nightly fee plus 2 cleaning fees should have meant a very clean home, but the windows were so filthy that we cleaned some of them during the stay, the dishes in the drawers were crusted with food, and we found other people's boogers and hair on some on the blankets (more than 1!!) We were glad they had a functional washer and dryer. The rental said accessible because there is an elevator, but it was not on the first floor when it arrived, so it wasn't really. The elevator has a 4th floor button that they have turned off, but they should tell you that in the email or label the button, because we pushed it and it goes halfway up and stops between floors and it was terrifying to be trapped in an elevator. The welcome book on the third floor did say that floor was off limits, but we hadn't seen it yet when we pushed the button. In the third floor bathroom someone got scared using the bathroom when the bookshelf suddenly moved, because it turns out there is another half locked room behind it, and after the elevator thing, it kind of felt like a horror movie to see part of a secret room with a ladder going up to a floor we couldn't go to. Overall though it is a nice house with a good view.
