About this property

Gone coastal! Jamaica Beach Open Bay!

*We do not rent for prom groups, weddings or events

Vacation is all about location and this renovated home is right on Galveston bay. A fisherman's dream with a sling boat lift, submerged and overhead fishing green lights. Bring a float or use our kayaks and enjoy a protected cove or paddle out to Galveston Island National State Park. Unwind upstairs with seating for 8 on the balcony that looks upon the bay & wetlands. Head over to Jamaica Beach Coast side and enjoy building sandcastles, fishing or just sit and relax.

The renovated home features upstairs all new cabinets, floors, bathrooms with carrera marble and subway tiles plus new TV's through out. The kitchen is oversized and allows for many to congregate with out feeling confined. The dining area can comfortably seat 14.
Upstairs has 2 central AC units and
Ground level has a wall AC unit as well as a portable AC unit. Please note: **The ground level is not accessible from within the top floor. It has a separate entry downstairs.


If you choose to bring a boat you can enjoy the private dock with a sling boat lift (easily lifts my 24 foot center console), a fish cleaning station with sink, a propane grill and oversized picnic table for 12 to enjoy those fish you catch. There is a submerged and overhead green light that attracts all varieties of gamefish. If you prefer to charter a boat you can get picked up right from our dock. You may put your boat in at the Jamaica Beach Marina - there is a $10 launch fee. please visit www.ci.jamaicabeach.tx.us to get helpful info about the beach rules, closures, parking, the swimming pool etc.

There is 1 child and 2 adult bicycles, a cornhole game, 1 tandem and one single kayak, multiple crab traps and sand toys all for your enjoyment.

Jamaica Beach is 10 minutes from the heart of Galveston and has it's own Fire and Police department. There is a public pool you can enjoy seasonally for a small fee, a public park with playground and basketball goal. There is a private boat ramp, a liquor store, hardware store & washateria. We are a few miles from Seven Seas Grocery Store and the bait shop. This area also boasts a multitude of restaurants. Jamaica Beach on the gulf side is a private beach just beyond the public parking area. During the summertime on weekends the private beach is accessible to golf carts only. The neighborhood allows golf cart usage within and to access the beach. You must be a licensed driver. Rent one and have it waiting upon your arrival - https://www.k6islandsports.com

Very enjoyable family gathering
The house is large and comfortable enough to accommodate our whole family. The kids "dormitory" downstairs adds to the camping experience for the little ones. We fished, canoed, went to the beach near by and had a great time. We plan to be back next year.

Jamaica Beach Weekend Fishing Getaway
Weekend fishing with friends and family. House was great, nice, clean and spacious. Location is absolutely wonderful. Fishing was so-so, but overall -- great experience with this rental. Would definitely stay here again. Son-in-law made note of the address to book a stay with his fishing buddies.

Great family weekend
After a short issue with the lock on the property the rest of the weekend went without incident. As the pictures show the view of the water and adjacent state preserve are spectacular. Kitchen is nicely outfitted and plenty of seating space for our family of 8 including the girlfriends. Downstairs sleeping arrangements are also nicely done. We didn’t use the grill this trip but it is there for your use and the kayaks make a great morning and evening fishing opportunity. All around we will certainly return in the spring!

About the host

Hosted by Tracy

Host profile image
We are a family that enjoys both surfside and bayside fishing. Having spent many years traveling to the coast, when we had to opportunity to have a home right on the open bay we jumped on it. This home allows us to have a full morning of fishing, followed by an afternoon at the beach. Often we end our day eating the catch of the day or heading into town to enjoy the many different restaurants that Galveston boasts. This is our ideal vacation day!

Why they chose this property

The location is on a quiet end of the street that has views of the water from every window.

What makes this property unique

For a fisherman every extra minute of sleep counts. Not being in the canals that are no wake zones allow for a few extra z's. There is a protected jetty out the bay and it serves for a perfect place to kayak out and set crab traps.
