COMMUNITY OF JAMAICA BEACH

Jamaica Beach 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 its own community pool* and private marina and boat ramp, Regatta Basin,* a community pavilion* and playground.*

*Community pool seasonal and at discretion of the Jamaica Beach community. Please inquire for additional details, fees and current limitations regarding amenities.

The family enjoyed fishing right of the boat dock while watching the astros game. The beach was a short drive down the street. The kitchen was stocked with all the family chef would need. The home owners were very nice and responded quickly to our questions. We vbro all over galveston and this is at the top of the list for best all around homes!!

Perfect weekend getaway

This property was the perfect place for us to stay with a group of friends. It was clean and more spacious than the pictures. Everybody also loved all the large fish decor. It had plenty of rooms, kitchen, grill, great fishing off the canal, and beach assess only a few minutes away... Only down side was there was no toilet paper, but there is a large Dollar General 5 mins away with everything you may need. We had so much fun and shared so many amazing memories here.

Father's Day family getaway

We all enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property. It was very comfortable, clean and had everything we needed. The outdoor areas are wonderful for hanging with the family and fishing. The circle drive and covered carport came in very handy, it stormed several days and made it easy to load up vehicles. Will definitely recommend staying at this property and we will return.
