About this property

The Hideaway-2 Bed Apartment in Jamaica Beach

Welcome to the Hideaway at Blackbeard, a first floor, 2 bedroom/2 bath apartment stylishly furnished and well appointed for our guests to enjoy within walking distance to the beach in Jamaica Beach - eateries (Way West Grill, a new Mexican restaurant, and more) a coffee shop, local convenience stores, etc. This is a small, 12-unit apartment complex and we'd love to have you Come Stay With Us!

Jamaica Beach is a city within the city of Galveston with a City Park, boat launch (if you're bringing a boat we will need to register your tow vehicle with the City, they charge $10 fee applies) to use the City's boat launch. The complex is across 3005 from the beach itself - it's so close you can see the water from the front porch and one of the favorite ways of guests to travel is to rent a golf cart.

The apartment has been furnished with high quality furniture and mattresses and nothing was overlooked when equipping the kitchen.

Primary bedroom has a queen bed, walk in closet and en suite bath with a custom-tiled shower.

Second bedroom has twin over double bunks with a twin trundle - so 4 can sleep here, and the living room has a queen sleeper sofa.

Dining table for either meals, puzzle building or rowdy family card games.

The kitchen has all full-sized appliances, and countertop appliances including a crock pot, coffee maker, blender, etc. All the cookware silverware dinnerware and glassware you could need are here (bring your own underwear!).

The other 11 apartments are rented long-term so you will truly be living like a local! Each apartment has one assigned parking spot (designated by the letter) and there are enough spots at the complex for one additional vehicle - though the second spot may not be right in front of your door.

We provide self check in instructions and then we allow our guests to enjoy their stay uninterrupted. However - should you need anything we are but a phone call away. This information is emailed 24-72 hours ahead of your scheduled arrival time.

What's included: Bed linens for all beds, bath, hand and wash cloth for each guest that the unit welcomes. We do not provide beach/pool towels and we do ask that ours not be removed from the condo and taken to the beach or pool. They can get damaged or lost.

Starter supplies: 2 rolls of 2-ply, quilted toilet paper, a roll of paper towels, a dishwasher tablet, small dishwashing liquid, sponge, 2 small soaps, 2 small shampoos, trash bag, and coffee including sweeteners, stir sticks, powdered creamer to make that first pot. These are not intended to last your entire group through your entire stay - but to get in, get situated and figure out where you will shop for what on the island.

We strive for 100% guest satisfaction – or as we call them – 5 Starfish Reviews. This is why we try to be as honest as possible in our listings. So if you find anything upon your arrival that was not as we described it – please give us a call and give us a chance to make it right! We want you to be happy. We realize that everyone can make a mistake or have a bad day – it’s how you recover that shows your true character – so we would appreciate your giving us the opportunity to turn that frown upside down and make this the best trip you’ve had (so far – until you book your next one). VRBO also gives us the chance to review you as guests and we want to give you a 5 star review as well.

Come Stay With Us at The Hideaway!

Family Vacation
The apartment was great in every way. It was so close to where the rest of my family was staying at the Jamaica Beach RV site. This is an annual Galveston Family vacation. I loved where we stayed and will book again. Thank you so much!

family vacation
This was our first family vacation and it was perfect! The apartment is as pictured and extremely clean. Beds are super comfy as well! Neighborhood is really quiet and neighbors are really friendly. The only thing it needs is better markings on the parking spaces.

Last Minute Gem
Very nice downstairs apartment. Plenty of room for 4 adults and our dog. Within walking distance to the beach. Thankful to have found this place just weeks before the holiday weekend. We love the Jamaica Beach area. Neighbors were friendly. Turns out one lived in our little town in NW Louisiana until recently. We would rent this place again.

Easy peasy
Enjoyed our stay! There are restaurants within walking distance which is great. Close to a stop light as well so easy to get across to the beach which helped with kids in tow. The beach does have drive on access if you prefer that. As a family of 5 having 2 bathroom is a life saver! Everyone slept comfortably and really enjoyed the apartment. I had a question and they were very responsive. Thanks for an easy peasy vacation!

Great Getaway
The property was nice, no loud neighbors, good proximity to the beach and very comfortable dwelling. I would however, suggest that you bring your toiletries, garbage bags, paper goods, etc. we were furnished 2 rolls of tp for 8 people for 4 nights. Lol

Great location for the beach
Very short distance to the beach with drive on access. Having two bathrooms and washer/dryer was a plus. Great air conditioning. Quiet neighborhood. Queen bed was comfortable. Bunk beds and trundle were not comfortable for my kids. Mattresses are thin. All the ceiling fans rattled. This was an adequate place to stay but nothing fancy.

Great Experience
This was the perfect location and ideal floorplan for our beach vacation. The beach is just a minute away. There is a pizza place just around the corner that is fantastic. There is a Dollar General a few miles down for those forgotten items and a Circle K to purchase gas a few blocks to the left. It was nice having a washer/dryer. There were plenty of towels, etc. The neighbors were friendly. I would love to stay here, again.

Do Not Recommend
The first night, we went out to dinner and our dog damaged one half of one set of blinds. The owner sent an email that they were in the apartment and were going to return the next day to assess damages. I emailed the owner who then told me they weren't in the apartment. No mention of them saying they would be in the next day to assess damages. (Of course there were no other damages.) This was my first stay in VRBO and I find it very creepy that the owner can just come in while we are out, without our knowledge. Next, neighbors smoked weed and we had to smell it in our apartment almost every night. Finally, some things started breaking while we were there (such as the towel hooks that were glued on the wall as an obvious fast fix). Multiple Plug-ins that were not the right size as the scents started leaking. And the smoke detectors were not plugged in. It was quite a mess.

Great place
We were able to rent this place last minute and decided to stay at Jamaica beach for the first time. Let me tell you, if you’re looking to get away from the crowd on the beach, this is the place to go. It’s location is great. The house itself was remodeled and was great for us. It’s in a small apartment complex that is not horrible, but the apartment itself is great. Had no issues the entire trip. Would definitely chose this place again. Only thing I would recommend is getting your own toilet paper and paper towels and trash bags before showing up as they only provide one of each and if you’re staying longer than a couple days you’ll need more. Five stars
