About this property

Waterfront Jamaica Beach 3/2.5 Bay Home with Private Pool

Our beautiful 3BR / 2.5BA Jamaica Beach bay home features water front views, a private pool, hot tub, and an exciting outdoor living area complete with a TV and bar, and fantastic fishing right off the dock.

LIVING AREA
You’ll feel like you’re on the beach all the time with the cheery coastal-themed décor and color scheme throughout this home. The open-concept living area, flooded with light thanks to its big windows and pitched ceiling, features a comfortable sitting area with a wall-mounted 55" UHD TV and ample room for all your family and friends. Step through the double doors to a large patio with a wrought iron dining table for six and a covered living area overlooking the bay.

KITCHEN & DINING
The kitchen is on the other end of this open floor plan and is outfitted with a full offering of brand-new stainless-steel appliances plus a handy, rustic island sized perfectly for chopping and mixing. Three can sit at the kitchen bar with a coffee or a glass of sangria. Enjoy full meals at the dining table with seating for six.

BEDROOMS & BATHS
All three bedrooms are located upstairs on the third floor. The roomy master has a plush king-size bed and French doors leading to a private balcony with an incredible view of the bay. The en-suite master bathroom is equipped with a large shower and granite countertops.

The second bedroom has a queen-size bed and simple yet eclectic décor, while the third bedroom is outfitted with two twins: ideal for young vacationers. These two bedrooms share a full bathroom with pedestal sink and full-sized shower / tub combo.

All three bedrooms have a digital alarm clock with USB charging stations for phones and devices.

OUTDOOR AREAS
In addition to the two balconies on the second and third floors, this home features a large outdoor living area on the ground floor offering dining areas in both sun and shade, across a fabulous, expansive patio. Relax on the wicker furniture in the covered living area complete with 55" UHD TV. Grab a drink at the patio bar or eat at the high-top table with exquisite views of the water.

If that isn’t enough, the house also features a stunning private pool and spa with waterfalls, surrounded by palm trees. For a one time fee, the spa may be heated for an extra $50 fee upon request. For an additional $150 fee, you may request to heat both the pool and the spa. (The pool cannot be heated when the air temperature is below 50 degrees.) Use the half bath and outdoor shower on the ground floor to clean up when you come back from the beach or bay.

EXTRA AMENITIES & MORE DETAILS
The property is equipped with two kayaks for guest use. Please note that no pets of any kind are allowed inside the house or on the property.

THE LOCATION
We’re right on the best canal in Jamaica Beach, meaning there’s room enough for you to bring your boat! The canal is 500 ft away from the entrance to Galveston Bay and world class fishing for trout, redfish, and flounder. It is truly a fisherman’s paradise. There is a large dock area where a boat could be tied up and launched as well.
As for dining, the home is surrounded by a range of excellent seafood options. Try the flounder and gumbo at Nate’s West End.

When you’re ready to hit the beach, Galveston Island State Park is only 2 miles away. Or treat the kids to a day of rides and games at the historic Galveston Island Pleasure Pier, a 26-minute drive from the home.

This house has it all!

From the moment we pulled in we knew we were going to have a relaxing time! The outdoor tv was perfect for March Madness and the heated pool/hottub made for amazing hangout time. We pulled out lots of crabs and had great luck fishing, pulling out some big enough to grill up. The house is cutely decorated and the master bedroom was big and the bed was comfortable. My fave part besides the fishing is the outdoor area. They even have a regular size frig downstairs to store your drinks, snacks and extra ice bags. The downstairs bathroom was convenient as well. Definitely would rent again! Thank you for hosting us!

Overall good experience but room for improvement.

The communication with the host was great along with the pool and hot tub. Location was good as well. The property could use some TLC and improved maintenance though. The two main TVs weren't working and the decks/docks need some attention.

Christmas Vacation

I can not express how wonderful our stay was. My boys love to fish and they caught all kinds of fish right off the dock our entire stay, even a couple of keepers. My daughter loves to swim and even though it was a tad cool for Texas the heated pool was PERFECT and she was able to swim the entire time. Location to the beach and restaurants was great as well. Highly recommend.

Great house, great service and great experience.

The whole process from beginning to end was so easy and the host was super easy to work with. The house was great, we did have some problems with the stove not working but the host made it up to us by ordering and paying for our dinner and having it delivered. They made sure to take care of our needs. I would rent this house again, due to the fact the host was so easy to work with.

Great House

House was wonderful, Katie went above and beyond!!! This was our third family trip to Jamaica beach, staying at a different house each time. We will be booking this house from now on! We had a great time fishing and caught Trout, catfish and lots of crabs. If you’ve never tried crab fishing, take an extra 5lbs of drumsticks, tie one to a string and let it rest on bottom of canal. Gently pull string taunt and you’ll be able to feel when there’s a crab. Slowly pull them up and put a net under them. We had about four strings out at a time. We had hours of fun doing this while others fished. I was a little confused on layout of bedrooms, but master is on level three and the other two bedrooms are between 2nd and 3rd level. Katie was great and very responsive to questions or request.

Would not stay again

We chose this property based on the high rating and the fact it had a private pool and hot tub. I wish I had read the lower rated reviews and that you have to pay a fee for the hot tub to be heated during your stay. I should have been more thorough prior to booking. The good - the hosts are very communicative and friendly. The pool is partly shaded with an awesome breeze. Our kids had a great time lounging in the pool. The bad - The 1/2 bath by the pool was so heavily infested with mosquitoes it was unusable. The hot tub has to be turned on by the hosts remotely so you cannot adjust the temperature or have access to having it on unless you contact the host and their internet is working properly. It was either not hot enough or hot at all when we were told it would be heated our entire stay. The flooring around the pool is uneven. The flooring in the house needs some serious tlc and repair. Everything about the pool area and the house felt tight. There were cigarette butts on the deck and in a candle. Everything felt dirty. There were stains on literally everything. There were pieces of food stuck to pans. There were greasy marks on plates and glasses. We had to wash everything before using it. There were false lashes stuck to a chair, hair all over the bed, stained pillow cases and pillows underneath. The attention to detail that I’m used to when staying somewhere was non existent. The ugly - the deck that you would use to launch kayaks is absolutely unsafe.

Awesome vacation house!!

We have been vacationing in the Galveston area for 40 years and this was hands down the best one yet! Beautiful house on the water with everything we needed! We enjoyed fishing and the pool and the kids really enjoyed the paddle boards. Clean, cozy, perfect house!

Second Stay

This home is amazing! This is our 2nd time staying at this home. It has a wonderful, fairly private pool and beautiful views of the bay. They offer tons of space for relaxation which is exactly what we wanted. The owners are always quick to respond. We had a small towel issue and was no fault of theirs and they were very responsive in getting the towel company out to get us more and on a Sunday! We always have such a peaceful and wonderful stay here and hope to be back soon.

A Great Family Vacation House

This was our third year to rent this house. This house has the perfect location for our large family. We rent the house beside us as well. The two houses together give our large family fill the bill for all of our wants for our Family Vacation. This house has plenty of space for our needs, a great pool, easy fishing off the back of the house, quiet area at the end of the street. We recommend this house and give it 5 stars once again.

Great Memorial Weekend!

The house was great. Perfect location on the canal. Best fishing experience we've had in the past 3 years going to Jamaica Beach. The home did lose power for several hours due to an unfortunate accident nearby but to the host's credit, they were very responsive with their updates. Great stay! Wouldn't hesitate to book again!

Relaxing Getaway

The property was as expected. Very clean and just as listed. We just wanted a chill weekend and thats what it was. My complaints are there were no beach towels or beach chairs and when you fly you obviously cant bring all that with you. We bought 2 chairs and left them for the next people. Hot tub bleached my swimsuit from purple to white so becareful what you take. With that being said I would go back! The outdoor area was wonderful! Like I said very clean home in a quiet neighborhood!!! Property owner was VERY responsive and took care of any questions or needs that we had.

The worst rental -DISSATISFACTION with VRBO

We picked to stay at this home for my daughters 9th birthday. We arrived at the property late at night and were disappointed that the property condition didn’t match the listing. In the morning. The next morning we realized that the property had dust everywhere, bugs all around, and the deck was in a dangerous state. The support beams for the upper deck was not connected to the wood below. The railing off the deck was about to fall off from 50 feet above. The property owner did not respond to us when we pointed out the dangers of staying at this property. VRBO was also not helpful in finding us a replacement location. We had to move to a hotel of our own accord. We wasted so much of this vacation dealing with a dangerous dirty property. Very disappointed in the response of VRBO, they don’t appreciate customers on this site, they will always side with the host
