This cozy home will leave you and your guests wanting more and wishing you stayed longer. You will love spending time here making memories that will last a lifetime.

Enjoy cool refreshing cocktails while taking in the views at one of the many outdoor seating areas. Whether you are upstairs or down, you will have an opportunity to grill burgers or the fresh catch of the day on either of the two Paradise grills. One on each level. In the evening, use the green underwater light to watch your own personal aquarium or catch fish while night fishing. There are three kayaks for your enjoyment. This is one of our guest's favorite activities while at the beach house. Cruise the canals, enjoy bird watching or enjoy day fishing in the kayak. The boat slip is not available for use, but you can bring your own boat and tie it off on the bulkhead.

The beautiful updates are eye-catching and stunning. The open floor plan offers three bedrooms and three bathrooms. Two of the bedrooms are on the main living level which is upstairs, and the other is located with separate access on the ground level. The eye-catching upgraded kitchen is adorned with stainless steel appliances, gorgeous granite counters as well as new cabinets. Pendant lights hang above the counter space that can be used for dining or as a nice workspace. The dining table is adjacent and offers space to enjoy a meal, play games, or take in the view from indoors. All of the furniture is brand new including the mattresses. The home has new laminate wood floors throughout. The welcoming home offers vaulted wood beam ceilings which create a cozy escape. The plantation shutters are an added bonus. The main bedroom with a king-size bed has a brand new breathtaking ensuite with a walk-in shower offering a spa-like feel with Bluetooth available for relaxing lighting and streaming music. The cozy second bedroom has a full-size bed with a twin trundle, and two swivel chairs to help you decompress while reading a book. The main level bath offers a stone-lined shower and beautiful decor. The third bedroom is a separate living space on the ground level with private access. This room features a queen bed and a lovely private bathroom and shower. It has been completely renovated and is decorated with a smooth ocean colored floor, new furnishings and mattress. This comfortable quiet space is the perfect place to retreat and unwind after a long day in the sun.

Schlitterbahn Waterpark and Moody Gardens are a short ten-minute drive away. They are always a favorite for visitors. The historic Strand District is a great place to visit as well. With its many souvenir and boutique shops, along with wonderful dining, you will truly enjoy a day trip to town.

This magical home is the perfect getaway for you to spend quality time with friends and family. Be one of the lucky first guests to enjoy this treasure in Jamaica Beach.

Spring break vacation

The place was great. We fished off the dock in the evenings, were conveniently located to groceries and restaurants and were able to drive 5 minutes and park on the beach for some sun and sand. Loved the place.

Great time!

The house was great. We loved the location, the bay was nice and calm to fish right of the deck. Everything in the house was very thought through and had everything we needed. We for sure would like to go back.

A little out of the way, but nice

Great property. Super easy to fish and kayak. Easy parking. Plenty of dishes and supplies in the house. The description was pretty spot on as far as how it set up and all amenities. It is a little bit far away from Galveston and things to do. The property manager was a little tricky to get in touch with because she was sick, but we were able to figure it out and get into the house. Over all a good day. Overall, a really good staying there.

Great house, great location!

The house was well put together and very “beachy”. They had everything needed for cooking and entertainment. Great location on the water and close to the beach. We would definitely come back to this spot!
