Beautiful and clean home, and in a great, quiet spot.

This home is very clean and great for a visit. It is close to the beach, which this visit was gorgeous. Also great restaurants and a grocery nearby. Galveston is amazing, but we liked the remoteness and quiet of the location.

Vacation with Family

The house was perfect for us. Everything was nice and clean. The outdoor shower is a great addition after a day on the beach. We used the beach across the street which was easy access and not crowded at all.

Jamaica Beach Vacation

This by far was one of the nicest homes I’ve stayed in. The upkeep is superb and was very clean. This house has everything you needed all you need to do was bring your food and everything else was provided even the seasoning for your food. It has dish liquid, detergent, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, everything that you thought you may need they had it. Very pleased will book again!

Family time

Haven’t seen my daughters & granddaughters since Christmas & I wanted to have some family time with them & it was great we all love the house & the peace. We went to the strand & the seawall, I work out of town & barely have time off to go home. So I felt like this was the perfect getaway for the family! It was refreshing to us all..

Beach home

The house was absolutely beautiful, there were a few things that raised a cleaning concern. The shower curtains in both bathrooms need to be replaced and cleaned regularly... we cooked in the house both nights we were there and kept running into the problem of not having enough pans to cook for our family. Its a very well kept home very beautiful and perfort for a damily of our size. Maybe add more linens for the extra bed for others to sleep on.
