Waterfront Escape w/ Pool, Boat Dock & Great Views

Tucked along a quiet canal in Galveston’s Jamaica Beach, Moby Dick is a relaxed 6-bedroom, 5.5-bath home designed for easygoing group stays. The two-story layout includes open, sunlit living areas, a second-floor hangout space for kids, and plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Outside, enjoy a private pool, boat dock, and a spacious deck perfect for morning coffee or sunset drinks—all just about a mile from the beach.

Inside, the main living area is open, bright, and built for connection. The kitchen, dining, and living spaces all flow together under tall ceilings, with big windows that let in plenty of natural light. Whether you`re gathering for dinner, lounging with a board game, or chatting over coffee, there’s room for everyone to settle in without feeling crowded.

Three bedrooms are located on this main floor, including one that’s furnished with both a king and a double bed—ideal for parents traveling with a younger child or a small group who doesn’t mind sharing a room. The other two bedrooms are connected by a Jack-and-Jill bathroom: one has a king bed, and the other is set up with a full-size and a twin-size bunk bed, making it a natural fit for kids or cousins to bunk up together. There’s also a guest half-bath on this floor and a laundry room for mid-trip refreshes.

Upstairs, you’ll find three more bedrooms—each with its own private bathroom—along with a second living area that gives kids or teens a space to hang out separately. Sleeping arrangements upstairs are flexible: two rooms have king beds (one with an additional twin), and the third has another set of full and twin bunk beds.

Outdoors, the home’s canal-front setting is a natural extension of the living space. A shaded pool with a volleyball net sits just beneath the house, while the upper deck spans over the boat slip—perfect for coffee at sunrise or a laid-back happy hour in the evening. A fish cleaning station, outdoor shower, and garage full of beach gear round things out. And when you`re ready for the sand, the beach is just about a mile down the road.

We stayed here for our annual Galveston family vacation. It was the perfect size and setup for our large family. The covered pool was very thoughtful and the beach is very close—a three minute drive to park on the beach. I look forward to staying here again next year.

This is is AMAZING! It’s very spacious and had everything we needed to have a comfortable stay. The beds were extremely comfortable. The location of the house was a great. Took us 3 mins to the beach. The pool was a little chilly but really nice after being in the sun and beach all day, was really nice to come back too. We also utilized the canoes it was a bonus to have there, super fun and was able to allThe houses in the area. The layout of the house was perfect for our family getaway. We can’t wait to stay again. LOVE LOVE LOVE this house.
