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), but not too far away from most of the island attractions (10 miles from 61st Street). Jamaica Beach also has its own community pool and private marina and boat ramp, Regatta Basin, a community pavilion, and a playground.

Stayed for a week. House has potential with the amenities offered if they can fix all the issues. Door locks gave problems. Bedrooms they say have tv’s don’t, pool tv doesn’t work, internet never works or when they finally did come out and look at it it went in and out, in-law suit always has a smell. Maintenance & Ryson say they are fixing the problem or will have some one out but they never show up or follow through with what they said. A lot of stuff at the house is older and showing a lot of wear and use.

The location of the home was excellent and the accommodations were very spacious and comfortable. We really enjoyed the pool!
Unfortunately, the listing said pet friendly when we booked it, but then we learned dogs weren’t allowed. We didn’t appreciate the false advertising. Also, we were told to bring a lot of items (beach towels, for example) that were actually supplied. It would’ve been nice to know specifically what we needed.
Overall, it was a beautiful vacation. We enjoyed Livin’ the Dream!!

The house is wonderful with lots to do on the channels with paddle boards and kayaks. The pool and hot tub are nice as well as the downstairs indoor/outdoor area.
We had tiny issues (running toilet, decor falling off walls, bugs) that we wished management had taken care of, but no significant complaints.

The property was exactly as described in photos and videos. We had plenty of space for two families with 7 teenagers. Lots of amenities. The hot tub was awesome and the kayaks were so fun!! Wished we would have had another week at Livin' the Dream!!

Great property with updated appliances, aesthetics. Bring a space heater for the upstairs outside room, as the control is located in the house and it took us several days to find the “sweet spot.” Otherwise perfect VRBO!! Great family stay!!

We had multi-generations who all had a ball and had their own comfortable room. For the kids it was all about the pool and kayaking. The fishing off the dock was fun and the beach was close by to jump in the car to spend a couple hours there. The kitchen and dining area was fantastic for our bunch of “foodies”. But my favorite was the sunset and the lights on the canals which from the upper deck had the most amazing views ever!

This property was amazing. The pool and downstairs area was to die for. Loved having an ice machine! The layout of the house was great. Lots of space for everyone to hang out. The kitchen was fairly well stocked. Could have used some more silverware as well as plastic dishes and cups for the kids. Furniture and beds were very comfortable. Lots of hot water! No complaints from this happy family! We would definitely isot this property again!

You can't beat the location of this property, right on the canal with gorgeous views of the water on every side of the property. There's plenty of space in this property as well--we had MORE than enough room to stretch out with our party of 9. The downsides.... the jacuzzi heat is pretty tricky--since it's a shared system with the pool, but the pool heat is not connected, you have to be careful not to turn on anything but the jacuzzi jets for heat. You can technically heat the pool some with the overfill from the jacuzzi as the water cycles, but it takes a pretty long time to get the heat to a tolerable temp in the pool this way. I strongly recommend to the owners to figure out getting the pool heat going to be comparable with other properties a traveler would be looking at--not just in Galveston, but pretty much everywhere. The finishes on cabinets/appliances/etc are showing some wear, which isn't a huge deterrent, but the appliances weren't in tip top clean shape, either. Signage ALL OVER this property, warning "do not touch, or risk a fee," which was honestly kind of off-putting. Made a property touted as a "luxury" space feel like a Motel 6 in terms of stay experience. All in all, not a bad stay, but I wouldn't book again unless the experience were improved with these touches. It doesn't take much to refinish the cabinet wear in bathrooms, and the pool heat would be WELL worth the investment, as it's typical to charge guests to use pool heat--I'd gauge the owners would recoup their costs fairly quickly. Also, the management company is pretty good to work with--we changed dates several times due to pandemic circumstances, and they were easy to talk to. There was also a rep on site for us to walk us through "how to use" the fireplace/jacuzzi heat/etc. That was definitely a nice touch.

Livin the dream was amazing. We had a few families with kids ranging from 17-1 years, there was so much to do at the house for everyone. There were 4 kayaks, 2 paddleboards, bean bag toss, large connect four, fishing supplies, videogame machine, plenty of board games. This home was absolutely beautiful, plenty of places to sit and chill out, we made jokes all weekend that we were "Livin the dream."

This amazing home features everything you could imagine with plenty amenities (pool, hot tub, fishing, crabbing, kayaking, paddle board, arcade game, grilling, etc.) and relaxation from any part of the house. Clean, well kept home and beds were comfy. We had a family reunion to celebrate my mom’s 70th birthday. We had a fabulous time and create special memories here. This home was perfect to accommodate all ages.
One big disappointment to mention for future renters. The house accommodates up to 22 people but the property limits up to 4 cars! How do you fit 22 people in 4 cars?!? The property could easily fit 8 inside the gate. A Neighbor complained and called the Ryson. We had to park some of the cars at a nearby park. This is ridiculous considering the high rental price we paid for staying at this property.
Other minor items to note but definitely didn’t spoil our stay: Some of dock underwater lights were not functioning, a couple of the pool underwater lights were also out, WiFi was slow so we used our own data plan, the swings on the dock shown on the pictures no longer there. Would like to have the option to pay extra to turn on the pool heater. Also if you have anyone has trouble taking the stairs, this home doesn’t have any handicap accessibility to access the house.
Overall love this property! It raises the bar, hard for other homes to compete. We would definitely rent this place again. Next time will be during the summer so we can utilize the pool.
Thank you Ryson for maintaining the house in great condition and having the basic initial items available for use (trash bags, shampoo, soap, dishwasher detergent, bath towels, lighter for the campfire, etc.)

Outside furniture very nice. Lots of amenities. 😊�😊�😊�
Crabbing was good.
Everything worked. Hot tub nice.
Cons-
No food pantry at all. The owner has it all locked up. We only had 2 cabinets to use for our food. That was nowhere enough. ☹️
No extra bath towels. Only 1 per person. We needed extras but had none.

Livin the Dream Easter Weekend
Pros:This house is stunning everything you need is under this roof there is no need to go anywhere else. my favorite room was the getaway room. Lots of changes since I last stayed. Add new pictures so the upgrades can be included.
We will definitely consider renting again for the summer and referring friends.
Con: Hi Tech home with simple instructions just does not work: We had technical difficulties with spa and we could not figure out the surround sounds. We brought our own speakers for entertainment.
Great customer service.
**** I did not like the fact that the complementary tickets expires daily. For the amount of the rental I would not want to opt a day for 1 complementary ticket per day.
The LAST Thing -please get a lift for the house it would a great benefit.

Amazing! It felt like we were at a resort!
The home was absolutely spectacular! There was plenty of space for our group especially with the new renovations with the new Getaway room. The owner has thought of everything! It was a little chilly during our stay but the hot tub was a big hit with the little kids and the adults. You aren't allowed to use the heat for the pool, but it wasn't warm enough for us to be interested in using it anyway. There are kayaks, a paddle board and fishing poles available. The kids were catching fish as soon as they were casting! I was extra impressed with the industrial size ice maker on the ground floor. It was really handy when stocking up our coolers or making adult beverages! There was a leak from the kitchen faucet. I called Ryson and someone was there within 10 minutes. Everyone at Ryson was very friendly and offered spectacular service. I doubt I will be back to Texas anytime soon, but I sure would love to see this place in the summer!

Place was awesome! More than enough room for 15 of us! Perfect location for the kids and adults to fish in the backyard. Most everything you need is in this place! Wish they had more kitchen items but cannot complain! Our family enjoyed our vacation at the Livin the Dream! Will definitely come back and/or recommend this place to others. Thank you so much! -Lee Family, Dec. 2018
