Blue Marlin near the beach

Nestled along the scenic canals of Jamaica Beach, TX, this charming canal house offers the ultimate coastal retreat. With a unique two-story layout, the home features 2 cozy bedrooms and 1 bath upstairs, perfect for winding down after a day of adventure. In contrast, an additional bedroom and bath on the ground level provide privacy and comfort for guests.

Step outside to discover a fantastic outdoor bar area, complete with a TV, ideal for relaxing with a drink or catching the big game while enjoying the breeze from the water. For those that are more active, the property comes with 2 kayaks and 1 paddleboard, ready for exploring the tranquil canals. Multiple living spaces throughout the home ensure there's plenty of room to unwind, whether you're enjoying the company of friends or curling up with a good book.

The property includes 6 convenient parking spots, so parking is never a hassle. And just half a mile away, the beach awaits for sun-soaked days by the water. From Memorial Day to Labor Day, guests have access to the community swimming pool, perfect for a refreshing dip on hot summer days. There is an additional nominal fee.

This canal house is the ideal getaway for a small group of friends or family looking to enjoy Galveston’s relaxed coastal charm, with all the comforts of home and plenty of opportunities for outdoor fun and relaxation.

Perfect for what we needed.

It’s was a great house and great location! The views of the water are so pretty, and it was a very short drive to the beach. The house was clean and well kept. It had everything we needed/wanted. We had a great experience!
