Beds were very comfortable. Access to Beach was perfect. Amenities were top notch. Plenty of games for the kids and all bathrooms had soap and towels. Kitchen was stocked better than we expected. This was our first experience with a house rental and it was an easy and seamless experience.
5.0
It was the perfect getaway, offering a blend of comfort, beauty, and relaxation. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat by the sea. With a little attention to a few small issues, it could be absolutely perfect.
2.0
Arrived to a dead cockroach on the front steps, upstairs at 86 degrees because they had the A/C turned off and general dirtiness throughout. Also, they have just 3 pans that are compatible with their fancy stovetop. So cooking in-house was definitely an issue.
A/C finally got down to 72 on night 1, but was totally broken by about 5pm day 2. I am convinced the owner/Vacasa knew about the A/C issue ahead of our rental.
Dead cockroaches and crumbs throughout. Had to chase and kill a cockroach in our bedroom on night 1. Vacasa didn't care about that. We stayed in another rental 2 weeks before (Ryson) and there were no cockroaches at all.
They have an induction stovetop, but just 3 pots/pans that actually work on it. Cooking for 10 people on one skillet and 2 pots for 2.5 days is ridiculous.
The house has an amazing floor plan and view, but the maintenance and cleanliness are reasons to never visit this place in the first place.

Had the most amazing time w family. The house is gorgeous. The beach view is gorgeous. My son even proposed here! Highly recommend. Hope to come back again in the future.
4.0
The house itself was great. Nice views of the beach from the three primary bedrooms. Bathrooms were nicely finished. The bar area had nice amenities and the kitchen was easy for everyone to work in. The induction stove top was a bit of a problem - not easy to figure out if you're not familiar with it. Only one pan that really worked on it. The dishwasher could use replacing and the couches seemed a little worn. The large dining table was great for our group, as were the outside table and chairs. Access to the beach was easy, as well.
Our main concern was the lack of communication with Vrbo and Vacasa. Because of the recent hurricane, it was important that we know if the house had power and was undamaged before we made the trip to Galveston. We had to make several frustrating phone calls to both companies and didn't receive any answers until the day before we had to leave. It was a disappointing experience.
4.0
The layout of the house and the location exceeded our expectations. Rooms were spacious, kitchen was well stocked, balcony views and beach access were fantastic.
Issues encountered that kept the trip form being perfect were:
1. Upon arrival, the upstairs temperature was 87F.
2. The upstairs bedrooms have air distribution problems. One room stays freezing cold but the other will not cool down. The hot room is also the only room without a ceiling fan.
3. The smoke detector battery in the downstairs hall went out and there was no replacement. Had to remove the detector to stop the beeping. No one ever did come out to replace it.
4. The propane tank on the grill was empty. We had to refill it but were not reimbursed.
5. General cleanliness was an issue. Floors felt "gritty". Open food in the pantry. Chip crumbs on kitchen floor.
6. No washcloths or extra blankets.
7. No starter paper towels or extra trash bags.
8. Living room railing is loose and two balusters were missing in the second story deck rail (small child can fall through).
5.0
Great! Private access to beach from the back of the house. Roomy and freshly remodeled. I had a minor issue when arriving and the owner's rep took great care of us. Beach was pretty much isolated from most public areas. We were pretty much one of three families on the beach at any given time. Beds, bedding, televisions, furniture all very new and nice. AC worked well. Best of the last four places we have rented around Jamaica Beach.

A clean & well organized house with all necessary amenities.

It is a very nice place. Great facility, very nice beach with good access to the beach and the water via a walkway across the dunes. However, we had a bit of a roach problem. Assuming they fix that it is a very nice house.

The home is beautiful and the layout for our group worked well. We loved the location of the house and direct beach access.
5.0
Great location and so spacious. The only thing that did not work for us was trying to use the stove top. It's an electric induction stove top, and none of us was familiar with it. I would recommend that the owners put a simple instruction manual in the house so that others like us can figure it out. There was not an induction frying pan so we were not able to make our morning omelets. They did tell us that we could use the other frying pans but these regular frying pans did not get hot enough to cook anything in so we had to forego cooking eggs of any sort. The blender did not work either but as soon as I informed them, they delivered a brand new one within an hour!!
Other than those 2 small issues everything was perfect and I would highly recommend this property!

3 masters with ocean views and every room has their own bath. Plenty of space. Watched dolphins from the deck. Home is older, but has been renovated. Easy drive into town. Cute little gym 5min drive from the house. Can run for miles on the beach. Great family stay. Would stay again just for the layout of the home and the views.

The view is amazing, with quick access to the beach. Only 30 minutes from Galveston, but there is big Dollar General close by. Looked just like the pictures in VRBO. Only two issues. One is that everything was dusty and should have been swept/dusted before we arrived, but was other was clean.two is that the stove. We had to watch a video on how to start it. But could not get it to work. Contacted Vacasa immediately. They asked us to do a few things which we did. We sent them a video of what we were doing and the error codes being thrown. Said they would contact the local office. Didn’t hear anything from them. Sent messages each day- first but text then by email, including text screen shots. Same response- we’ve contacted the local office. No one ever showed up or called/left messages until our last day. That email only said that a member of their team told us to keep a pan on the stove in Order to heat….we knew that from day 1. That wasn’t the issue. So we went nearly a week without a stove. We had 3 of our group with severe food allergies. We booked a house with a stove and expected a resolution of it being fixed or some refund for it not working. Their lack of care for our food needs makes me hesitant to rent from Vacasa again, as I question the urgency with which they would respond should the fridge, air, heat, etc., were to stop working.

The location was perfect if you planned to stay at the house and enjoy the beach and solitude. We did go to Galveston for dinner at Gaido's and it was about a 22 minute drive to the restaurant. We really enjoyed our stay.

This home is lovely with open concept with fantastic views of the beach. The living area and bedrooms all have glass doors leading to a deck with a view to the beach. Home has everything you could ask for, especially in the kitchen.

The pros : It's a really nice home, very spacious. The balconies were large and views were great. Communication with the property manager about how and when to check in went smoothly, and the location was a plus.
The Cons: The cleanliness of the accommodation was not up to par. Upon arrival, I noticed my feet were filthy from the floors while we were unpacking. The bathtub in the bunk bed room would not drain. While looking for all the pieces of the Margaritaville type blender we noticed mouse dropping on the top two shelves in the pantry. Another significant disappointment was the quality of the amenities advertised because even though there was a good variety of pot and pans, they were past their prime and should be replaced, as were the sofa and throw pillows, the ice maker at the bar was broken, but my husband fixed it himself, there were no black out curtains in the upstairs bedrooms like they had in the downstairs bedrooms, so it was very bright in the morning and also at night due to the neighbors spot lights, the batteries in the tv remotes were dead and you really shouldn't need 3-4 of them and take a tech savvy person to figure out how to turn it on and off.
5.0
This property surpassed our expectations and worked so well for our two families with kids ages 2-11. Often pictures inflate what a property actually is, but these pictures really do show the property - it is truly fantastic! Stylish, spacious and clean.
Plenty of tables and seating for when our cousins joined us for a meal. The kitchen was large and the drink bar has two drink fridges plus an ice maker. The Texas shaped bar sink was the cherry on top. Linens were clean and plentiful. The kitchen was well-appointed including small appliances. We did take our own Instant Pot and Air Fryer, but they had a great coffee maker, toaster oven, toaster, etc.
The bedrooms are all private with their own bathrooms plus a hall bath for guests. Each bedroom had a television and the living room tv was excellent for squirmy kiddos waiting on parents.
Washer and dryer worked. ALL SHOWERS DRAIN!!
The exterior decks were wonderful. Spacious with generous seating. The two upstairs bedrooms had glorious views of the ocean from the deck or the bed. Breath-taking, really.
The house stayed cool and there were several de-humidifiers around - a really lovely and thoughtful touch for a beach rental.
No games around, but the books make me know I’d want to be friends with the owners. Lots of excellent history pieces to read. Downstairs offered a ton of beach toys and an excellent outdoor shower. Covered parking for both our vehicles was a bonus. Check out was as easy as locking up the key!

Location of this house is nice and size is great however, We had MULTIPLE problems with this stay. The air conditioning in the bedrooms was not working and would not cool, the only room that stayed cool was the one upstairs with the separate unit. The grill outside did not work so we were unable to grill food we bought. Lots of tar on the ground in the garage area, stairs, balcony, and walk out leading to the beach. The drain in the bath tub in the bunk bed room would not drain the water unless I held the stopper up. Very disappointed with this visit after the amount of money spent for a three night stay.

PROS: Clean property with awesome location and a great open area with dining, kitchen, and living room all together. The wet bar is amazing and the ice machine is great.
CONS: The master suit and bath are very underwhelming and need updating. There's no dresser. The house wasn't equipped with trash bags, hand soap, dish soap, or other basic things. Its not part of the deal but most homes at this price have something. The bad part was the internet going out (there's no cell coverage here) due to the fact that the owner had not paid his Xfinity bill for 3 months. Vacasa took 4 days to get this resolved and their process wasn't impressive. I had to have 3 separate phone calls and had 2 text conversations before they got the owner to pay his bill. Not paying bills on a beach rental property in June was astonishing to me and a sign that the home is not a priority for the owner. Just a heads up for future renters.
5.0
The location and house were just perfect. The view and the access to the beach was better than expected.
The house was very clean and roomy allowing for a large group to have plenty of elbow room.
The (4) bedroom with a large bathroom attached made sleeping our group very easy.
This was a great property.

There were things that needed to be fixed for example two planks were missing on the deck and a few things in the house besides that BEAUTIFUL HOME!!!!!! Would absolutely stay here if we booked through another agent. There is no way to reach VACASA or the owner if you need them during your stay and unfortunately (for example the two huge holes in the porch with which 4 toddlers was a risk) there was no one to call we had to run to Walmart and buy two baby gates.

This house is beautifully advertised but the stay was not great. I arrived to the home on Sunday with 9 other family members at 4:45 pm to have the master bedroom not have lights due to an electrical shortage that happened because of the window AC, the downstairs half bath smell like urine, and the stove not working. The couch and carpet in the living room was stained. There were no extra linens or towels. The house also didn’t have an iron or ironing board. I called at 6pm to put in a ticket and I was advised a local team needs to come and assist me. Imagine my surprise at 8pm when I didn’t hear from anyone and I had to call again. I had a supervisor from another location speak with me stating the team would move me to another house if I would like. The other homes suggested we’re not comparable to the house on the beach originally selected. Around 11 am on Monday the maids came…rather two young girls where one looked 16 and the other 14/15. They came with Fantastic to clean the bathrooms and 2 cloths. A Vacasa local team came and looked at the electrical and when he couldn’t do anything, he called the electrician. The electrician came on around 2pm and was able to fix the electrical in the master bedroom but the stove needs to be replaced. On Wednesday, 1 day before my departure, another person came to look at the stove as he just got the tickets. He wasn’t aware if anyone came out or if the stove was repairable. I am disappointed with Vacasa and the way they managed the property and their lack of urgency. As I write this, the last phone contact I had with Vacasa was on Monday. No final conclusions were communicated to me about refunds or anything. I will never stay on a Vacasa property again and will do my best to stay away from VRBO. 10 clients lost to poor customer service.

The home was perfect for adult families with teens (I could’ve even slept in the full size bunk beds). Each room having its own bathroom was a huge bonus. And you are right on the beach!!!!! As previous reviews mentioned, the house needs updating as most beach homes do on a frequent basis. But, the location was great, the beds were comfy and the layout was perfect for us. I would only add that if you plan on doing any cooking, bring salt:) otherwise, the house had all the amenities we needed.

The property listing talks about "expert housekeeping" and "24/7 support". Unfortunately, we had neither. Dead A/C in the bedroom (in Texas in August), bed linens not changed, blood spots on the sheets, and much much more. I suspect that the housekeeping team got fired - it was that bad. It took a dozen calls and texts over almost a full day before we got support. To their credit, once they finally got engaged, the local team got the house cleaned up to a livable condition and salvaged our weekend. I hope that they are able to do better with maintenance and housekeeping in the future.

We loved everything about this house! There was so much room, the kitchen was well stocked, the private boardwalk down to the beach was so convenient... and there's no way to describe the view from the decks. I hope we get to stay here again someday!

Overall, this is a beautiful property, but it needs some work.
Pros:
It was easy to find the house and check in. The outdoor deck space looking out over the ocean was unbeatable. I could have sat in one of the captain’s chairs the entire vacation and been happy. The layout of the house, with en-suite bathrooms in every bedroom, was really nice. And TVs in the bedroom were great. All the rooms were decorated beautifully! The kitchen was lovely and spacious, and the appliances were clean. Underneath the house the outdoor shower was convenient for washing away sand. There was a little room with what looked to be a bunch of beach toys. We brought our own, so we didn’t look to see what all was available. The dining room chairs are different from the listing pictures and no longer have cloth seats. As a mom of small children, I loved that. I didn’t have to worry about anyone dropping a piece of food and staining a chair.
Cons:
The house was not very clean when we arrived. As we were setting down bags, there were tufts of light-colored pet hair blowing across the floor. There was also pet hair all over the couches, on curtains, and especially in the upstairs master. There were a couple of air purifiers, but neither worked. For people with pet allergies, this was an unpleasant surprise. There were empty body wash containers in and around the outdoor shower. All the showers had hairs in them, and there was stuff on the bathroom floors. There were spiders in the upstairs mater bath, and little bugs in one of the cutouts in the wall of another shower. Some of the furniture and bedding had stains. We had packed a broom and some other cleaning supplies, because I had asked VRBO ahead of time if they had them available. They could only confirm that there was a vacuum. We gave all the rooms a good cleaning. When we told VRBO it was not clean, they did offer to send someone out. It just seemed easier to do it ourselves. The front bedroom upstairs had a sliding door going out to the balcony that didn’t lock. And if you are bringing small kiddos, be careful. There was a door right at the top of the stairs with no lock, and one of our kids opened it thinking it was a bedroom. It was the attic, and would have been unsafe for a little one to explore. It’s an older house, and there were several areas that were in need of maintenance.
We loved the location and outdoor space this property offered. For the price, we definitely expected it to be clean.

Beautiful big house but no beach towels on the beach! No extra blankets and quilts, ants inside and stove broken. This house needs some love and common sense for such a big house! No blankets and beach towels was silly as we would have thought these items would be provided in a beach house. They did get pest control but amta on our beds it was a little to late.
5.0
This is a wonderful property--extremely spacious and a beautiful view of the water. One of the bedrooms was very warm and had no ceiling fan (all other bedrooms had ceiling fans) so we had to go purchase two portable fans to be comfortable. One of the bathroom glass shower doors was loose and did not appear to be very safe--this needs to be fixed. But honestly, neither of these issues adversely affected our stay. We would return.

we had stayed at this property for several years B4 when managed by local company--- You need to give renter LOCAL rep name and TEL#--- had to call #800 and go through AN inquisition for a simple problem
