The house was perfect for our spring break get away. We would definitely recommend to anyone looking to make memories with family and loved ones. Host was courteous and responsive to any questions or concerns in a timely manner. We look forward to stay again in the near future.

Cute place, safety issues need to be addressed. No lights that work by doors. Deck is not safe, poles are loose some were swaying in the wind. Had to call to get check in code. Beds were good. Only two baths with a toilet in laundry room, not four baths. Outside grounds were dirty, pool was too cold to swim. We paid for a week stayed three nights. Neighborhood a bit sketchy.

The kids really enjoyed the pool and the room to play. Great spot for families.

We had a great time at the House. It was very clean and we loved hanging out by the pool and fire pit. I would stay there again on my next trip.

It is a nice location. Pool needs some attention, but loved the fire pit.

That was good

Great Location and beautiful home! Loved the pool.

Everyone had a nice time. We especially liked hanging out in the backyard by the pool. Home was clean upon arrival and Russell was super easy to get in contact with.

The only negative thing to say is that the pool was not cleaned but, once I contacted the host, it was taken care of rather quickly. The house was perfect for the little weekend getaway and certainly fit the group.

House was nice the pool was great need to fix the electricity in home some plugs didn't work and if you use the microwave washer or dryer the lights flicker also the lights in the driveway don't work floors we're dirty also the sheets in the bedroom downstairs were stained patio felt unstable

The kids enjoyed the pool. It kept them busy while the adults enjoyed some adult time. Location and price were perfect.

Our family came in from Arkansas, and Dayton to spend the weekend together. I rented the home based on the reviews and stars. Not sure if the reviews were trying to be nice or what, but this home needs major work and is worth maybe 1/2 of what they charge if that. Our stay started out with the home not being ready at 4 PM checkin so we had to wait pass when we were supposed to be checked in. The bottom of the home is full of mold and has a bad oder. Part of our family slept pool side due to the mold and horrible order coming from the room downstairs that also does not have a bathroom so you have to leave the door unlocked for your family to be able to use the bathroom at night. The pictures on the website are very good compared to the actual condition of the home we rented. The home needs a lot of work. especially for the price they are asking. Also be careful as the pigeons will poop on your items under the porch. DO NOT eat under the porch. Overall this one of our worst experiences at a vrbo rental. The home will sleep 6 conformability in the current status. I also tried to contact the owner, however we did not get a response back as I hate giving bad reviews but this one is well deserved. STAY AWAY....

It was a 2 min drive to the beach. Several restaurants are within walking distance. They are building a pool in the backyard which will be great for families once finished!

Not the owners fault but construction with nail guns and hammering was going on at the strip mall 30 yards away well past midnight. House is fine and appointed well but we just got supremely unlucky with our timing staying there.

Management team is awful and slow to response or completely unresponsive to issues noted by guests. If you like pigeon droppings, spider bites from sleeping in the beds, dirty couches and questionable electrical wiring, this is the place for you. All items were communicated to the management company AND to VRBO customer service. No one took action on the points we noted. In addition, listing says "steps away from the beach". In all actuality, the beach is 2/10ths of a mile away ACROSS a BUSY state highway. Really deceiving to say the least. Stay at this location at your own risk.

Great spot, comfy house. Good beds, well stocked kitchen, and huge master bath shower for easy post beach clean up. The fence was being worked on so we had to be careful with our dog outside which was a little bit of bummer.

It was clean and well put together it could use more silverware as it sleeps 12 so maybe bring plastic spoons and forks overall it was a nice stay

Location was close to the RV Park where grandchildren were staying. The yard was nice to have. The view was horrible. The deck looks directly into the back of a building and there were workers and trucks each morning at 7:00 am. Home was close to public beach access. Liked the decor but the gray sofa needs to be replaced as it is very stained. We put a blanket over it to sit on it. Stairs are very dark trying to come in at night. All in all it suited our purpose of being close to our kids. Kitchen was very nice!

Enjoyed our stay. Great thing about this area is you load up and drive on to the beach!!! Alcohol is allowed in the beach in this area as well, some don't allow. Dogs are allowed on beach too. All in all, had a good time. House was nice, well stocked and owner communicated well.

We had an amazing time staying at Jamaica beach. House was clean, well stocked, comfortable beds, washer/dryer & great AC after a hot day on the beach. Nice yard for our dog to run around in. We rented a golf cart & enjoyed touring the neighborhood & finding the right “spot” to see the sunset. Really nice area!!! Beach access is across the highway & with all the beach gear it was nice to have the cart. Check in & communication with Russell was flawless. Thanks again for a fun filled memory making week!

We just celebrated my sister's 40th birthday, and this was the perfect place for us to meet with our families. We had 6 adults and 8 kids with us. Some beds were more comfortable than others, but everyone had a place to sleep. The yard was perfect for the little kids to run around in when we weren't at the beach. The property managers were responsive whenever we had any questions. I only have 2 complaints. The first is that indoor seating was limited at mealtimes for such a large group. There was plenty of seating outside, so that was not a huge problem. The only other problem we had was the bugs, but that seems to be unavoidable in the area. It looked like some bugs had been squished in places that the cleaners had missed, so that was a bit off-putting. The beach is a short drive away, but you could easily walk if you don't mind carrying all of your gear. You can park right on the beach, which was super convenient. The temperature of the water was perfect. This was my sister's first time being at a beach that wasn't on the Pacific coast, and she was amazed! The beach itself was perfect for the kids. The younger ones could walk out pretty far, and the water still only came up to their waists. They had a lot of fun searching for shells and crabs in and out of the water. There were a few places nearby to eat, and there is a convenience store within easy walking distance. The Walmart and Kroger aren't too far up the road, but traffic can make the drive take a bit longer during certain times of day. There are a lot more restaurants up that way. The food at Gaidos was delicious, but be sure to make a reservation a few days in advance, unless you want to wait for a seat at the bar, which is what my sisters and I did since there were only 3 of us. If you have a larger party, definitely book ahead. We also liked Jimmy's on the Pier, but you want to be prepared for a 2-hour wait if you go during the busy times. Put your name on the list and go hang out on the beach or run across the street for some mini golf! Aside from the beach, there was plenty to do to keep everyone busy! The kids all had a blast at Pleasure Pier, and my brother-in-law went fishing in different spots every day and night.

Excellent

The check in process was fine. The electrical went out In half the house and the owner never communicated with us about it. It came back on, but they never addressed the many distressed texts we sent. I think they came over and went into the locked garage and maybe reset a breaker? I don’t know because they didn’t respond about it. The place had ants, not like a huge amount, but a few. The locks are not well maintained and really hard to use, the remodel work is fairly shoddy… I think a lot of our “meh” experience is the distance between expectations set in the photos and the real thing. The view off the back deck is of the backside of retail / restaurant, not attractive surroundings. The layout is strange in that the downstairs has no bathroom so so those guests have to go upstairs. I would not stay here again, but it for the job done. Some in our party wanted 2 stars on this place, I think 3 is fair.

Everything was perfect! The owners were AMAZING, the house was clean, comfy and a just a minute to the beach! I will definitely be back to this house!

Everything was perfect! This is exactly what we needed and the home exceeded our expectations. Just a minute away from the beach, you really couldn't ask for a better location. The home was cozy, welcoming and very clean. We had 2 families with 6 adults 6 teenagers and 3 between 4-9, and the home never felt too crowded. The kids loved the game room downstairs and we all put the firepit in the back yard to great use. This was an amazing trip!

Great

It is unfortunate that chairs are not provided on the deck for relaxing. However, the deck view is of the back of a retail strip center and dumpsters with the sound of a jack hammer going on during the day. We did like the convenience of being a few Walking blocks to the beach and the place was clean. We did lose power several times in most of the house but it came back on within the hour each time.

We didn’t lack hardly anything. Everything was quiet and enjoyable.

Honestly it was hit or miss. One thing that bothered me was when I got there, there was insulation all over the yard. It was the pink one too which is not good. My two year old literally brought it to me and it freaked me out. When I said something about it , all I got was that they’d “let there team know”. Due to this , my child couldn’t play in the backyard. Other than that response to something dangerous , it was clean and plenty of room. Stocked with a ton of kitchen utensils.

Communication with Russell was good. (I know every customer has those worries of not getting the codes in time and being stranded outside of a home. We've been there, done that before. Therefore, communication is a key part of all our cabin and home reviews.) The location is South of Galveston and away from all the traffic in a very quite neighborhood. After a busy day this home offers a great spot to unwind. With the extra bunk and trundle beds, the home was able to accommodate many people. The home was found clean and the water pressure was good. (We have encountered bad water pressure on various islands and in the mountains before so this is obviously on the mind while booking.) The oversized walk-in shower in the master bath is very nice. We don't expect any home to be perfect, and we did find a few things that could be improved upon. The state of the grill was somewhat discouraging. Because of this we opted to eat out vs grilling one night. Katie's Seafood Restaurant is a good choice and one of our favorite places, and is located about 30 minutes from the home. The downstairs doesn't have a restroom. (That is where the washer and dryer is located.) Whoever stays downstairs will need to come upstairs to use the restrooms and showers. If you are staying with teenagers or older kids, this will not be a problem for you at all. Overall, we enjoyed our time and would stay here again.
