JAMAICA BEACH
Jamaica Beach Texas is one of the most popular beaches and sought-after neighborhoods when it comes to vacation rentals – what it lacks in size, it makes up for action during the summer months, holidays and event weekends! Jamaica Beach is far enough out to be away from the hustle and bustle of Seawall (8 miles), and but not too far away from most of the island attractions (10 miles from 61st Street). Jamaica Beach also has it’s own community pool and private marina and boat ramp, Regatta Basin, a community pavilion and playground.

GULF COAST CONCIERGE
Ryson partners exclusively with Gulf Coast Concierge to make your time on the island unforgettable! Gulf Coast Concierge understands it's the little things that count. Create your own adventures with beach gear and golf cart rentals, a sunset cruise or a bonfire and smores on the beach. Gulf Coast Concierge also offers fishing charters, photo sessions, and a variety of in-home services. If you can dream it, we will do our best to make it happen!

The house is quite large. It is 5 bedrooms, 3 full bath. However, it does not look as good as the pictures online! Master suite is on third floor, as well as 5th bedroom with bunk beds. The stairs to master suite are a death trap. No way are they code compliant. Better be in decent shape to traverse these stairs! The entire house needs updating for the nightly rate required. The deck is in poor shape. Full of splinters! There's a reason for the sign"No bare feet on deck" The master shower is lacking as well as the furniture in the living room. The recliner is broken and the two couches are very broken down. On a final note, the main entry doors do not secure well. A stiff wind and they'll be open. Beware of this place!

The house was clean but one if the poorest homes we've rented. I wouldn't recommend this property at all it needs a lot of attention it's on the water but nothing was available to get in and out of the water the kitchen cupboards are laminated and their coming apart broken indoor recliner and the 3 chairs they have for outside are cracking. The desk has been painted but not the stairs or handrail the owners solution was to post a sign to wear shoes Over all love the area but not this property

The place was good for the amount of people. We liked the neighborhood. The house is a little run down and could use some updates but overall we would stay there again. The TVs were updated which we didn’t expect based on other reviews so that was nice. Good view.

American Pride - BAD

American Pride - BAD

Although we enjoyed the location...house was clean...and the house could be a nice house if maintained - this house is in terrible shape. Nothing like what is advertised. Ceiling fan is hanging from ceiling(falling off). This was reported and nothing was done. Recliner is falling apart. Tubs have caulk smeared all around the joints. Pantry door is falling apart. Every ceiling fan in house shakes uncontrollably and makes a lot of noise. Some of the windows wont lock. Beds all need replacing. There are electrical issues on dock ( one cover rusting away and another plug appears to have caught fire at some point. The deck is very ruff and you must wear shoes at all times. We killed several big water bugs in house. There are DVD's but no player. There is a VCR but no tapes...Curtains are falling off walls (we fixed one) There were 11 of us - we have stayed in a lot of home rentals and this house by far is in the worst shape. We were charged a damage fee(non-refundable) yet we did NO DAMGAGE. I would think if everyone is charged this amount even when causing no damage that this place would be in perfect condition. We were appauled at the lack of maintenance on this house. I would have not rented this house for 1/2 what I paid for it had I known it was in such terrible shape. I am very curious where the non-refundable damage money goes? Not only will we never stay in this house again - because of the lack of maintenance we will never stay in any property managed by Ryson.

House was clean but the property itself was not up to standards. Doors and handles were all loose. Dining table leg bolts were hanging almost freely and master bedroom patio door wouldn't even open. There were too many maintenance issues regarding this property! Will not be staying here again!

The owners need to put some serious work into this place. I feel like a call to the local building code enforcement office would put them out of business.

Cleanliness and expectation

Cleanliness and expectation

There stain on pillow, bed are super soft and makes loud noise when more. Too soft it’s like sinking causing everyone back pain. TV and VHS we thought we were in time machine. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. The list of things that’s they expected upon turning in the keys, well I might as well ask for my cleaning fee back, what’s the point paying cleaning fee when we have to do anyway. We are on vacation, very disappointed and will keep away in the future!!!!

Would’ve been a 5

Would’ve been a 5

It would have been a 5 star rating if it wasn’t for having to plunge the upstairs shower for 15-20 minutes and pulling out a wad of hair, a bandaid, and the stiker yo a cigarette lighter just to get the shower to drain. Yes, there is a sign on the steps to wear your shoes while walking on the steps... but, they could send someone out to screw all the screws down and nail all the nails down. Other than that, it was in a great location. The neighbors were nice. Didn’t catch anything worth keeping on the canal. We loved it and so did our children! Overall a beautiful home and a great location! We will be back!

Great place, great location, and great stay!

Great place, great location, and great stay!

We had such a wonderful time here. It is in an awesome location on the canal and about a 5 minute drive down the road to a great beach area. It comfortably slept 11 of us with room to spare. The layout is really great for groups and the main area is open and easy for everyone to hang out. Would definitely recommend it! The only things to note for potential renters: - the staircase up to 2 of the bedrooms is extremely steep. So if you have any issues with stairs, I would caution this. - There is definitely remnants of water damage in the ceiling but we didn't have any issues of leaking during our stay so it might be a cosmetic thing only - The place does not come with much in terms of necessities. We had to buy toilet paper on the first day because we ran out. We also had to bring trash bags, paper towels, salt & pepper, etc.

Leaks in Ceiling and MOLD

Leaks in Ceiling and MOLD

Upstairs toilet was leaking thru the living room ceiling when we arrived around noon. We shut off the water, cleaned up the mess and called the property manager. They said they would send a plumber. The next day at 10:30 I called them and they acted like it was the first they'd heard about the leak. The plumber came that afternoon. Upon checking out we were checking for belongings and noticed a nasty old leak in the ceiling of one of the closets. There was a lot of black mold on the Sheetrock and a large gaping hole. Someone tried paint over some of the mold growing around the hole but it was seeping thru. This indictated that they know about the issue but didn't care to fix it. Several of the people in our group complained of bad allergies during our stay and after finding this I believe it was the cause. There are lots of old stains on the downstairs ceiling from old leaks. There are also a lot of nail heads protruding in the decking that could Contacted the management company and let them know about the condition of the property and our disappointment. They refunded us 20% of the fee which I thought was insignificant considering the fact that they intentionally rented us a property that is in disrepair and possible a health hazard. I asked them if they fixed the issues so others wouldn't be exposed to the mold and they told me no, that the owners were coming down in a month to look at it. Unbelievable. We will never stay in a property managed by this company again. What's worse is Home Away won't let me post their name here and made me remove it from my review.
