5★ Waterfront home w/ bikes & kayaks, fire pit! Amazing underwater fishing light
Borrowing from Walt Disney's mission for Disneyland, our mission for 'Jamaica Cove' is simple...'to be a place where friends & family can have fun together.' You won't find a more beautiful, more relaxing or more FUN house on the island... with plush, high-end amenities and complimentary perks like beach cruiser bicycles, kayaks, beach toys and an amazing underwater fishing light, "Jamaica Cove" has something for everyone.
Located on one of the largest canals in Jamaica Beach w/ direct access to Galveston Bay & State Park, you can't ask for a better location... - 5 minute bike ride to the beach, Jamaica Beach Swimming Pool (open Memorial Day to the first of August), playground & city park - 20 minute drive to the Pleasure Pier, Moody Gardens, Schlitterbahn, the Strand & Sea Wall
'Jamaica Cove' is a place where families can bike to the beach on our complimentary 'beach cruiser' bicycles. A place where children can fish from our pier or kayak through the protected canals of Jamaica Beach (we provide kayaks & life vests at no cost). This is a place where parents can relax on the deck and pets can play safely in our fully-fenced side yard, and it's a place where friends can enjoy a day of boating right from our boat slip or simply spend the afternoon grilling by the water or relaxing on the deck.
Whether you're looking to soak up some sun in the Jamaica Beach pool or spend the day hiking the nature trails of Galveston State Park, it's all within a mile of our home. Above all else, 'Jamaica Cove' is a place to get away for awhile, relax, and enjoy life with each other! (The Jamaica Beach pool is typically open 6 days a week from Memorial Day to Labor Day, and charges $5/person for a day pass.)
Our private dock is equipped with an underwater fishing light to help draw in the 'big ones' after dark! Trout, red fish, drum, and several other varieties are frequently caught from our deck!

Also, if you are interested in renting a boat during your stay, we can help you arrange a full or half-day boat rental at a special discounted rate for our guests!

We did a weekend stay at this property before we left on a cruise and I couldn’t be more happy with everything. The whole property is well kept and clean. The house offered amazing views and a convenient location to the beach outside of busy Galveston. I would highly recommend this property and host!
Enjoyed our stay very much. House was very nice & clean. Nice & quiet neighborhood. Location was great. Just a short golf cart ride to the beach. Will definitely stay again.
Our family was very happy with the home and its location. We enjoyed everythung about the home especially the roomy balconies. Loved the child accessories. Enjoyed the host's recommended restaurants. Short drive to everything we wanted to do.
Super comfy place! Had enough room for two families and a dog! The side yard was perfect for the pup to run around and still feel included. Great location to the beach and we all caught a fish off the dock! Kayaks were a lot of fun too and we made s’mores by the fire pit while enjoying the breeze off the top deck. Such a great place to stay! We can’t wait to go back next summer!
This property was one of the best we've ever stayed at. We rent often in the Jamaica Beach and Sea Isle Area. The owner was extremely quick to respond and worked with us to accommodate a few special requests. House was incredibly clean and offered great amenities. Location perfect!! Beach right across the road, great Mexican restaurant and convenience store all attached to the neighborhood. We brought our golf cart and were able to enjoy all of these things without ever getting in the truck. We will most definitely be renting here again!
Our family stayed for 5 days. We had 3 adults and 2 kids and the home was perfect. Our boys had a great time fishing and caught tons of Pinfish, some Croakers, Catfish, and a small Trout. The bikes and kayaks were an added plus. When the boys got tired of fishing we headed over to the beach right across the street. Everything was so convenient, and we had a great time!
Small company "getaway" for the weekend. Home was beautiful and everything we hoped it would be. Fishing is decent if you wait until it's late. Caught a few white trout (Sand Trout) after the underwater light turned on. Be careful if you're using a trout rig with an underwater rattler. There are a lot of small fish that will rob you blind near the dock. Close to the beach as well. I would advise bringing a golf cart with you if you're going to be going back and forth to the beach though.
The outside decks are amazing. More space than you'll ever need, even with kids running around. Take some bread for the kids to feed the seagulls. That was my daughter's favorite part.
There is a filet table with a nearby hose when fishing and enough space for 4-5 people to fish without stepping on each other.
Our family had a wonderful stay here in Jamaica Beach! The kids fished and kayaked the entire weekend, and the adults had a great time relaxing. The beach was just a quick 5 minutes away, so it was the perfect way to keep everyone entertained!
