We spent Father's Day weekend in Jamaica Beach with our very close family friends. There was 8 of us in the house, 4 adults and 4 kids ranging 1-12 years old. It was perfect for our little weekend getaway. Walking distance to the beach. Loved sitting out on the balconies at night. House was exactly as listed. Owner was easy to communicate with. And the top deck was so cool, the kids loved going up! Would definitely stay again.

We loved staying here. The owners were very responsive and the location was perfect. The beach was a quick walk from the beach house. There are two decks both have great view of the water. We had a party of 7 that stayed there comfortably. The house has a lovely beachy theme but also had a family home feel as well. We can't wait to come back!

Jamaica Joy had everything we needed to have a relaxing vacation. We loved the location and the view from the top deck was amazing. We chose to drive down to the beach but could have walked. It was nice having restaurants and stores just across the street. Loved sitting on the deck and enjoyed the swing on the ground level. Loved having the kuerig coffee pot and everything we needed for cooking in. I am looking forward to staying again and bringing another couple or the grandkids.

The location was so close and will bring us back.

The walking distance to the beach was so quick and easy. We made multiple trips back and forth with no difficulties or inconveniences. The master bedroom window was next to the major road so it was a little noisy at night with the traffic but king bed was very comfortable and made up for the little noise we had. The kitchen was fully equipped and we appreciated the condiments. Overall we had a great stay and the proximity to the beach will make us return.

Busy and noisy location

Busy and noisy location

Honestly this was not my favorite Galveston stay. The house was nice but not exceptional. The huge porch and views were the best and while it was in walking distance to the beach, it was also right on the highway and was very loud. While I appreciated the sound machines - which helped a bit - it was quite loud during the day but especially at night. The supply truck across the street loaded the store at 4am and had our kids up from that point on. There were also no beach amenities provided unlike most places I’ve stayed so bring everything you need including extra towels as there were no beach towels. Also Jamaica beach is public, very busy with cars, trucks etc. up and down the beach. Personal preference - just not my favorite. Overall we enjoyed our stay - but the boys also like when we just go down for the day. I just think it’s helpful to know how trafficked the location is. It may not bother some at all.

Could not have enjoyed our stay more. Located so close to the beach, house had everything we needed, and right next to a gas station and small restaurant for last minute needs. Owner was incredibly communicative and answered all questions we had. Kids loved the futon and the master bedroom was extremely comfortable!

Good location off the beach, clean, and comfy bed

Right off the beach so you can come and go as you please. Next to the few restaurants/stores found in Jamaica Beach. House is clean and master bed is super comfortable. Only consideration is that it's right off the main road, so you will get some street noise. Didn't bother us, but if you are a light sleeper, you may want to bring earbuds. All in all a great stay.

Excellent location & cozy house

Excellent location & cozy house

We loved our stay at Jamaica Beach! The house is older, but very clean and decorated nicely inside. Had all the amenities we needed during our stay, with the exception of toilet paper which we had to go buy (thankfully they weren't completely sold out at the Kroger in Galveston). The decks are absolutely wonderful and offer great views from the 3rd row. The beach is just a few minute walk down the road to the access point for the neighborhood. There's a really delicious grill & pizzeria just across the road behind the house, as well as a gas station and a coffee shop. It was soooo convenient! The con is that there's quite a bit of road noise and there is an emergency response hub right by the strip mall with the other things, so there can be some siren noise too, if that's something that bothers you. We didn't mind. Ponch was very responsive to my messages and had great suggestions. You can tell the home is well-loved. We had a wonderful time!

Perfect Galveston weekend

We enjoyed everything about our stay at this lovely property! House had everything we needed (the only thing I couldn’t find was extra paper towels-not a problem, however, as we brought some). The house was comfortable and clean. We absolutely loved the 2 decks! The views from the top deck are awesome! The main deck was where we spent a lot of time - perfect place for coffee in the morning! The beach is walking distance and we also liked the fact that we could drive/park on the beach too. We will definitely be back! Great place to stay!!
