50th Anniversary family gathering.

The location and house were just perfect. The view and the access to the beach was better than expected. The house was very clean and roomy allowing for a large group to have plenty of elbow room. The (4) bedroom with a large bathroom attached made sleeping our group very easy. This was a great property.

Wonderful views and lovely spacious home

We loved the views from this home and the generous space and amenities. There was plenty of room for us all to be together in the great room, kitchen and at the dining table. We spent a lot of time on the large deck and appreciated the quality deck furniture. The kitchen was very well outfitted. The bedrooms and beds were comfortable. Beach chairs and plenty of beach towels were provided and the outdoor shower was great. We would come back!

Beautiful location

The view is amazing, with quick access to the beach. Only 30 minutes from Galveston, but there is big Dollar General close by. Looked just like the pictures in VRBO. Only two issues. One is that everything was dusty and should have been swept/dusted before we arrived, but was other was clean.two is that the stove. We had to watch a video on how to start it. But could not get it to work. Contacted Vacasa immediately. They asked us to do a few things which we did. We sent them a video of what we were doing and the error codes being thrown. Said they would contact the local office. Didn’t hear anything from them. Sent messages each day- first but text then by email, including text screen shots. Same response- we’ve contacted the local office. No one ever showed up or called/left messages until our last day. That email only said that a member of their team told us to keep a pan on the stove in Order to heat….we knew that from day 1. That wasn’t the issue. So we went nearly a week without a stove. We had 3 of our group with severe food allergies. We booked a house with a stove and expected a resolution of it being fixed or some refund for it not working. Their lack of care for our food needs makes me hesitant to rent from Vacasa again, as I question the urgency with which they would respond should the fridge, air, heat, etc., were to stop working.

Beautiful beach front home

The kitchen was fully equipped and stocked with more than enough dishes and pots and pans. The wet bar was great. The seating was great. Loved the views from the deck. All of the decks actually loved having an en suite for every bedroom that certainly saved us a ton of time when you have For women and three children to get ready to go do something would definitely stay here again. I would definitely referred to a friend. Thank you for allowing us to stay.

Beautiful, spacious house!

This is a beautiful home that has everything we needed for a 3-day stay - plenty of room to space out, a fully loaded kitchen, places to sit and relax, and steps from the beach. Love having an outdoor shower too! House was very well cleaned and maintained. Highly recommend!

Perfect layout for a family or group

We loved the huge, stocked kitchen and overall layout of the house. Loved that it has 3 king size beds and ensuite bathrooms. The balconies were so spacious and views can't be beat. Private beach was peaceful. Bring ice at check in as the icemakers were off when we arrived. Since we loaded the fridge with the food and drinks, it takes time for everything to get cold. Wonderful house!

Perfect Weekend

My family wanted to just get away and have some time to bond. We could not have picked a more perfect location and home. It had everything we needed to be together and yet the bedrooms allowed for privacy with ensuites in all rooms. We truly lucked out on this property and will return.

Beautiful house, quiet week on the beach with our family.

This house was lovely. The location was wonderful if you’re looking my to slow down a little. Spent the week here with our 8 kids. My husband and I enjoyed morning walks, watching the sunrise and spending endless hours outside the back yard on the beach with the kids. The only reason I took off a star on the rating is because of the broken dishwasher, which VASCA sent someone to fix after we were there a few days- which the guy came then left and never returned- and didn’t fix the dishwasher. We found dirty dishes in the cabinets and drawers, and the housekeepers left their own mess that we had to pick up when we arrived.

Der Aufenthalt war hervorragend! Das Haus fast so wie in der Beschreibung, aber sehr gut! Das war unser vierter Urlaub auf Galveston Island aber das erste Mal durch Betreuung von VACASA! Wir werden NIE wieder Häuser buchen die von VACASA betreut werden, weil die Kommunikation katastrophal war! Wir waren durch diese katastrophale Kommunikation nicht in der Lage das Haus abzuschließen und es bestätigte sich, das der von VACASA aan uns ausgegebene TÜRSCHLOSS-CODE nicht stimmte! Viertage Urlaubsfreude weniger-----nie mehr VACASA!!!!

Beds were very comfortable. Access to Beach was perfect. Amenities were top notch. Plenty of games for the kids and all bathrooms had soap and towels. Kitchen was stocked better than we expected. This was our first experience with a house rental and it was an easy and seamless experience.

A delightful coastal charm.

It was the perfect getaway, offering a blend of comfort, beauty, and relaxation. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat by the sea. With a little attention to a few small issues, it could be absolutely perfect.

Nope, just nope

Arrived to a dead cockroach on the front steps, upstairs at 86 degrees because they had the A/C turned off and general dirtiness throughout. Also, they have just 3 pans that are compatible with their fancy stovetop. So cooking in-house was definitely an issue. A/C finally got down to 72 on night 1, but was totally broken by about 5pm day 2. I am convinced the owner/Vacasa knew about the A/C issue ahead of our rental. Dead cockroaches and crumbs throughout. Had to chase and kill a cockroach in our bedroom on night 1. Vacasa didn't care about that. We stayed in another rental 2 weeks before (Ryson) and there were no cockroaches at all. They have an induction stovetop, but just 3 pots/pans that actually work on it. Cooking for 10 people on one skillet and 2 pots for 2.5 days is ridiculous. The house has an amazing floor plan and view, but the maintenance and cleanliness are reasons to never visit this place in the first place.

The house itself was great. Nice views of the beach from the three primary bedrooms. Bathrooms were nicely finished. The bar area had nice amenities and the kitchen was easy for everyone to work in. The induction stove top was a bit of a problem - not easy to figure out if you're not familiar with it. Only one pan that really worked on it. The dishwasher could use replacing and the couches seemed a little worn. The large dining table was great for our group, as were the outside table and chairs. Access to the beach was easy, as well. Our main concern was the lack of communication with Vrbo and Vacasa. Because of the recent hurricane, it was important that we know if the house had power and was undamaged before we made the trip to Galveston. We had to make several frustrating phone calls to both companies and didn't receive any answers until the day before we had to leave. It was a disappointing experience.

Fantastic House But.....

The layout of the house and the location exceeded our expectations. Rooms were spacious, kitchen was well stocked, balcony views and beach access were fantastic. Issues encountered that kept the trip form being perfect were: 1. Upon arrival, the upstairs temperature was 87F. 2. The upstairs bedrooms have air distribution problems. One room stays freezing cold but the other will not cool down. The hot room is also the only room without a ceiling fan. 3. The smoke detector battery in the downstairs hall went out and there was no replacement. Had to remove the detector to stop the beeping. No one ever did come out to replace it. 4. The propane tank on the grill was empty. We had to refill it but were not reimbursed. 5. General cleanliness was an issue. Floors felt "gritty". Open food in the pantry. Chip crumbs on kitchen floor. 6. No washcloths or extra blankets. 7. No starter paper towels or extra trash bags. 8. Living room railing is loose and two balusters were missing in the second story deck rail (small child can fall through).

Highly Recommend! 6/29-7/3/24 stay.

Great! Private access to beach from the back of the house. Roomy and freshly remodeled. I had a minor issue when arriving and the owner's rep took great care of us. Beach was pretty much isolated from most public areas. We were pretty much one of three families on the beach at any given time. Beds, bedding, televisions, furniture all very new and nice. AC worked well. Best of the last four places we have rented around Jamaica Beach.

Great place, but...

It is a very nice place. Great facility, very nice beach with good access to the beach and the water via a walkway across the dunes. However, we had a bit of a roach problem. Assuming they fix that it is a very nice house.

Beautiful and spacious

Great location and so spacious. The only thing that did not work for us was trying to use the stove top. It's an electric induction stove top, and none of us was familiar with it. I would recommend that the owners put a simple instruction manual in the house so that others like us can figure it out. There was not an induction frying pan so we were not able to make our morning omelets. They did tell us that we could use the other frying pans but these regular frying pans did not get hot enough to cook anything in so we had to forego cooking eggs of any sort. The blender did not work either but as soon as I informed them, they delivered a brand new one within an hour!! Other than those 2 small issues everything was perfect and I would highly recommend this property!
