Cute home on the water

We stayed here to take advantage of fishing at anytime of day. Not a long drive to Galveston busy areas. It great to have kayaks/paddle boards and a paddle boat available to use as well as safety equipment and beach equipment. The kitchen was a perfect size for my party of 4. Everything was very clean and the owner was extremely helpful and prompt in response to any of my questions. I would definitely stay here again.

4th of July Weekend

This house is lovely. We really enjoyed our stay. Definitely will be back! Lisa was so attentive and welcoming during our stay. The best part were all the activities as there was never a dull moment we used the peddle boat, enjoyed fishing, and the crab traps. 100% recommended!

Quaint Jamaica Beach Bay House

It was a perfect location along the water with amazing sunset views. Kitchen is fully equipped and we appreciated the Pinot Noir gift. We caught five fish off the lower deck and enjoyed the Yolo boards. The house stayed nice and cool during the hot days. We look forward to staying again. We looked to come back for Thanksgiving but it was already booked, so book early and enjoy.

Beautiful, very clean home!

Lisa’s home is beautiful, clean, and fully stocked. We have stayed in several homes on the island and this home tops them in cleanliness and was stocked with everything you could need. There were plenty of towels..usually an issue in other homes. There were even beach towels. There is a garage full of things to keep you entertained at the beach and at the house. Lisa is very quick to respond to any questions or concerns you may have during your stay and goes above and beyond to make sure your stay is exceptional. The sunsets were breathtaking! We’ll definitely be back!!

Amazing weekend getaway

Our stay was way beyond our expectations!! Check in was super easy ! The home itself was so clean and welcoming! It was fully stocked and even had extras if needed! The location was great, the views are beautiful and the sunsets are breath taking. You are also not far from the beach either and we had plenty of space! Our boys loved the paddle boat and the kayaks! We were able to fish right off the dock. After a long day of fun in the sun, we wanted to unwind with watching Disney plus but it was not available but after speaking with the host in less than 10 minutes she had it up and running for our boys! The host is so responsive and sweet! For our first stay here we could not have been more happy and before leaving we were already trying to plan a second trip!

Awesome property & property host/manager

Our weeklong stay was awesome. Check-in and check-out were smooth with clear instructions provided by the host, Lisa. Lisa checked with us during our stay to see if there was anything we needed. Groceries were all we needed that was not provided. The home was comfortable, clean and beautifully decorated, with a great bay and sunset view from the furnished deck overlooking the canal. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. It was a short bike friendly ride to the beach. The home and amenities were as described on the Vrbo website. We enjoyed the bottle of wine and chocolate candy bars that were on the dining table when we arrived, nice touch. If you are looking for a great rental property in the Galveston area you need to consider this one.

Good

I would give our stay 5 stars however we did have bumps from the moment we checked in. Checking in was easy. However, the property was not cleaned. We asked to check in earlier and were told no because the property was going to be cleaned. Which was not true because that did not happen. I contacted Lisa the host right away, she apologized and sent the cleaning crew. She was very responsive and prompt. The mattress in the guest room/kids room was not comfortable and the beds were super squeaky. Every time we moved they would squeak. I must say the home itself was really cute. The kitchen was fully equipped with spices, dishes, and everything you can think of. The garage itself had everything for fun. The kayaks, paddle boat, paddle boards, fishing poles, life vest, beach chairs and beach toys for kids and much more. I would have loved to give it 5 stars but the cleaning issue and the uncomfortable beds is why I am giving it less.

It was as described on VRBO website. However, the listing showed the property to be pet friendly. We found out two days before our arrival that this was not the case. Therefore, we had to scramble to find a place to board our small dog.Instructions for the lock box should have said that once the code is dialed in, you need to pull down on the black switch to the left of numbers to open.Otherwise, I have no complaints.Charles Wright

Fun weekend getaway at the bay!

We loved our fun weekend getaway at the bay. So many fun things to do on the water. Kayaking, paddle boarding, swimming and fishing. Great little dock to hang out on and a pretty porch up top to watch the sunset. And have our morning coffee.

Excellent Vacation Rental

The property is beautifully decorated with very comfortable furniture. It appeared to be professional cleaned, given the fact that the house is super clean. We were welcomed with a bottle of wine and fine chocolates which made us feel that Lisa was happy we were there. Communication was great. When visiting the Galveston area again, I would love to stay at Lisa's again.

The property was amazing. It was so clean. There were lots of things to do very close. When it started raining, I reached out to the manager, and they let me know how to secure the boats and everything really quickly so they were definitely on top of everything I had an amazing stay there. I can’t wait to go back again.

Very nice and clean property that is well stocked.

The house is lovely and well stocked. I appreciate it being clean and love the W/D upstairs (we’ve rented ones in the past which were located in the garage). Only complaints were that the second bed (full sized bed in second room) is extremely uncomfortable. I could not sleep on it and as a 50 year old female, I chose to sleep instead on a twin sized bunk bed since it had a mattress topper. The other let down was that the property had a paddle boat to be used and in pictures it is available outside, in the water. While they had the paddle boat in the garage, it is heavy and there is no way we could have carried it out to the water and took it back out of the water. We were looking forward to using it, but did not attempt to. My daughter did enjoy the paddle boards though. Other than those two complaints (the mattress being a big one), we enjoyed the beautiful home.

Great stay!

The house is fully stocked and was perfect for our family of 4. We really enjoyed the kayaks and paddle boards on the canals. Hurricane Beryl cut our stay short but Lisa was great with communication and went above and beyond. If we head back to Galveston we will definitely stay at the property.

About the host

Hosted by Lisa L.

Host profile image
We love mountains and oceans. We have two vacation homes, one is located inside the magnificent Rocky Mountain, nestled in the ski town of Winter Park, Colorado; Another one is in the beautiful Jamaica Beach, Galveston, Texas. We have been enjoying both vacation homes so much, we would like to share them with you. I hope you will enjoy them as much as I do. Thank you. Lisa

Why they chose this property

This beautiful canal home has the best of both water activities and beach access. Blocks from Beach & easy access to Galveston Bay. You can enjoy paddleboarding, kayaking, pedal boating, and fishing, and crabbing just off your own deck on the canal. If you feel like go to the beach, a three minutes drive will bring you to top-rated Jamaica beach. You can park your car right on the beach.
