Amazing

House was as advertised, very clean and all the basics were provided. Fishing, and views are great, pool and outside amenities can’t be beat. Had storms which caused the pool to get dirty a couple of days, property managers had someone there asap to clean it, will definitely book our next vacation here absolutely no complaints.

Nice view

This is a nice house. Plenty of space. If you're renting this house for fishing, it's not really a good location because the canal you were on is also the canal lazing into the marina. Other than that, it's a five star. Only other thing is the gas grill does not work

Very nice place !

Very nice place. Very clean. Enjoyed catching fish off the dock. Most restaurants are 15-30 minute drive but a few options real close. The house was as described . We would definitely come back. The listing is slightly deceiving regarding the pool and hot tub. That’s a hot tub in my opinion and in the listing some place it calls it a kiddo pool and says both are not heated. It’s a shame the pool and hot tub are not heated . The two tvs by bar under deck only one was present and it won’t power on. Tried new batteries even running it to another outlet. It just won’t power on. Other than the pool/hot tub and tv the place is absolutely awesome!

Good place on the Bay

The house is an updated two-story on the Bay in Jamaica Beach with super east access to the beach across the highway. The beds were comfortable and everything was clean. Important to note that the primary bedroom is on the second floor and there are also stairs to get to the house first floor. If you have trouble navigating stairs this wouldn't be a good place. The views from the balconies and the bar/pool downstairs are fantastic! It's a really quiet place and very calming. We stayed here in the summer and for the holidays. Two negatives: both times the bunkbeds were not made up and it's not easy to make them. And, the "1/2 bath" is a toilet and small sink in an unfinished room behind the bar outside, so you have to go outside to use it. Finally, and it's not a big deal, the only condiments in the house are salt and pepper shakers and some coffee filters (lots of coffee filters). But, we came back a second time knowing all this and had a very good time!

Listing Misleading

We found the house to be very nice. House was very clean, bedrooms were nice size, living and kitchen area was great, ac worked well, outdoor kitchen was great. Pool was dirty and green when we got there! Cleaned the second day of our stay then landscapers came right after and blew grass all in it. So basically lost 2 days of pool use! Listing was misleading. Said great for Fishermans getaway. Could use boat slip but our boat didn’t even fit in slip but was able to tie up to side. Said fish cleaning station which there was none. And most importantly, you didn’t have access to the boat ramp! We have stayed in sea isle many times and have always had access. Closest access was not convenient! Would probably not have booked this house if we had known we didn’t have boat ramp access. Not clear in the listing.

Lovely beach house

Our weeklong stay was great— the home and property are very clean and generally well maintained. There is close proximity to local beaches and some cute restaurants and a surprisingly good small grocery store. Check in and out were easy, instructions were thorough and when I did need help from property management they were responsive and respectful (I discovered the washer door was broken from prior travelers).Kids loved the pool and boat dock, sunsets were rather beautiful. The only recommendation I have is to provide more bath towels. Would stay again if the opportunity arises.
