“Great house, thoughtfully designed with lots of space. Location is superb and the pool and spa were a great enhancement to the outdoor space. Host was communicative and helpful, would stay again.”

“We love this house!”

“The house was fabulous! Very clean, spacious and nicely decorated. All of the bedrooms were nice and beds were comfortable. We enjoyed the outdoor patios. We all enjoyed the pool and hot tub. We kayaked both from the front of the house across the street and behind the house in the canal. Beach is a short drive away. Kitchen was amazing. We ate in several times and the kitchen amenities came in very handy. PlayedApples to Apples with the whole family and we had a great time.we would love to come back. Donna,,our host was most responsive.we had a great time! Thanks Donna!”

“Would recommend this house to anyone!”

“Perfect home for a weekend getaway! The home was overall great! Everything was exactly how it's pictured. The host was very responsive and made sure we were well taken care of. Only problem we had were a bit of bugs inside the kitchen area but given the location of Galveston it's unavoidable. We were satisfied with our stay and would definitely come back!”

“Our family had a wonderful time! The beds were comfortable and the home was clean and inviting. Will definitely keep on our list of favorite places to revisit! The pool and hot tub were a great perk after a day on the beach.”

“The house was stunning and we had such a great experience! The house was very comfortable with large master bedrooms for the adults and bunk rooms for the kids. It was a perfect setup and we had a great time. It’s a beautiful home and the experience was 10 out of 10!”

“Our family had a great time at the property last weekend. The house was provided everything our family could have wanted.”

“Great location, lots of room, very clean, loved the pool/spa, fun fishing with the family in the canal and bay every morning & evening. ”

“We enjoyed our stay again this year! Great property and host.”

“The place was incredibly spacious with great decor and amenities. I’d love to return”

“Great Airbnb, brand new, very clean, big house with a swimming pool, highly recommend”

“Great!”

“Huge house that is very comfortable and well maintained. The pool is small but perfect and the hot tub is wonderful. Very clean and the owner is extremely responsive. Tons of space for a large crowd and only a few minutes from the beach.”

“Everything was great. We enjoyed our stay!”

“Had a great stay at the rental! Beautiful house and surroundings. The views from the front and back of the house were awesome. The kids love the pool and it was partially shaded which was great! We all enjoyed fishing / crabbing on both sides of the house and there were 2 crab traps that we used that came with the rental. Love the place.”

“This home was the perfect place for our group of 8 individuals. Plenty of space to hang out inside and out. Pool was fantastic and covered patio space was perfect to get out of the sun but still enjoy the breeze and fresh air. Furnishings are well done and beds comfortable. Kitchen had all we needed to cook in a couple of nights. Jamaica Beach is such a great neighborhood (very quiet and peaceful) with a mini mart at the entrance for those last minute items. Would absolutely stay here again.”

“Came down for a quick getaway with the family. Lots of room for everyone. The house was clean and had everything needed. The location was ideal for kayaking and fishing. We’ll definitely book again.”

“Beautiful house! Donna was very responsive to any questions we had. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will book again when we are in Galveston next time.”

“Bit of an issue with the hot tub. The app is not user-friendly and often lags. Had to press the "heat" button about every hour, and needed the phone to be near the actual hot tub in order to work. Also, please make sure the heater is on when ur trying to get situated into the Airbnb, or else the hot tub will not work. Overall, great experience. Donna and the host were very responsive and nice, and we had a great time.”

“Donna was very friendly and responsive. We were working out of town and her property felt like home.”

“AMAZING house! The location is ideal, it was extremely clean, lots of space, plenty of places to sleep, everything is updated and the pool and hot tub were an added bonus. Donna was extremely communicative and helpful. We definitely plan to stay here again.”

“Exelente !!! Todo 🤩”

“Such a perfect rental! Great location with views of the water from the front and back of property. Felt private as no homes directly in front or behind. Multiple large decks and balconies gave great options for enjoying time outside. Two living spaces inside allowed kids and adults to space out. The house was so large and it was really nice that each room has its own bathroom. The kitchen was fully stocked with anything you might need to prepare meals. Would 100% book again!!”

“This house was perfect for our family trip! Plenty of space for everyone to stretch out. The pool and hot tub were amazing. Fishing from the dock was fun. The location of the house was just minutes from the beach. Donna was very quick to respond with every question we had.”

“Awesome amazing relaxing place! Super clean and comfortable beds with wonderful amenities”

“we loved everything about our stay we had everything we needed at our finger tips . we almost didn't want to leave the house for our entire stay because there was so much to do for everyone there!! thank you again for a unforgettable trip!!!”

“Great property with very professional management services. Always quick responses from host making the stay great.”

“Great trip. House was beautiful, clean and in a great location. Donna was wonderful, too!”

“We love it here. So beautiful and peaceful.”

“Our families enjoyed the spaciousness of the home and amenities available to keep us all busy. There’s something for everyone. The home was equipped with everything we needed. Fishing and crabbing was a crowd favorite. The heated pool and jacuzzi was a plus for the chilly nights. The Host made it easy to book, check-in/out and was very responsive the whole time before and during the stay. I highly recommend this property.”

“Thank you for sharing your home. We appreciate it! It was enjoyable!”

“This was a wonderful home to stay in for our vacation. The hosts were very responsive and I would certainly recommend staying here if traveling to Jamaica Beach / Galveston.”

“My family had an amazing time celebrating our 86 year old mother. We loved the stunning, spacious, beautiful home as well as the morning and evening views of the area. We spent the majority of our time in the jacuzzi relaxing, talking and enjoying each other. We will definitely revisit.”

“The house was more than we expected, and we were so pleased! The property was spotless and it seemed that everything was well thought out and spacious. There were 14 of us and all of us had plenty of room (and bathrooms!). We really enjoyed the jacuzzi and the pool. The car charger in the garage was an unexpected surprise! Donna was a great hostess,, checking in with us from the start. We will definitely tell our friends about this great Airbnb property!”

“Beautiful attention to detail, every amenity you can think, without a doubt, we have amazing experiences.”

“Our stay at the beach house was nothing short of amazing.The house was impeccably clean and tastefully decorated, with every detail thoughtfully arranged to create a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The spacious layout provided ample room for our group, and the comfortable furnishings made us feel right at home.The host was incredibly accommodating and responsive, ensuring that our stay was as enjoyable as possible. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a perfect beach getaway.”

“House was beautiful good time fishing and at the beach. Didn't like contract with so many rules made us feel uneasy, at the same time when we arrived house was still being cleaned had to wait outside 30 mins. Trash was still left underneath some beds blankets left balled up in a closet BBQ pit was left uncleaned by previous guest board games were also left thrown in cabinet some missing pieces so we couldn't play them. Pool was dirty host tried her best and had it cleaned but it took 1 day for the pool to clear up due to chlorine so we lost a day of using the pool. Spent 30 mins when we arrived inspecting everything taking and sending pics of things that were damaged. They have cookware but the minimum wish they had more house had roaches mainly in kitchen at night.Overall had a great time just suggest they have it ready when guests arrive especially the pool since that's the main thing people pay for.”

“We enjoyed our stay, great home!”
