The wide-open, multi-level living space features a dramatic floating glass staircase and floor-to-ceiling windows with direct ocean views. Plenty of seating and a flatscreen television make a comfy spot for hanging out with your crew. You’ll find yourself pulled outside again and again through the glass doors to the huge oceanfront deck overlooking the Gulf of Mexico. Relax here with an ice-cold drink while you listen to the sound of the waves against the sand, the call of coastal birdsong, and the gentle offshore breezes rustling the palm trees. Take a deep breath, and feel all your stress wash away with the tide.
The massive kitchen features gleaming quartz workspaces, stainless steel appliances, and a massive sub-zero refrigerator. There is plenty of seating for meals between the kitchen island and dining tables (both inside and out on the deck).
With seven generous bedrooms, there’s enough space for everyone to find some privacy. On the ground level sits a fun bunk room detached from the main house, with 2 full over full bunk beds and a twin over twin bunk. There are four bedrooms up the stairs on the main floor. The first bedroom has a king-size bed. The second bedroom— dubbed the Whale Room— has a full-over-full bunk bed with an attached trundle. The third bedroom is called the Mermaid Room and features a twin-over-twin bunk bed and a twin-over-full bunk bed with an attached trundle. The Whale Room and the Mermaid Room share a full jack-and-jill bathroom. The fourth sleeping space on the main floor is a queen sleeper sofa in the library.
On the upper level, the sumptuous master suite will take your breath away. A king-size bed faces a wall of floor-to-ceiling windows that frame a stunning view of the sea. Wake up each morning to this gorgeous view, take your morning coffee out to the upper-level deck space, and watch a cotton-candy-pink sunrise light up the sky. A huge en suite bathroom has a glass-enclosed shower and a soaking tub. Another bedroom on this level has a full-over-full bunk with an attached trundle, a full-size bed, and an attached bathroom.
When your crew is ready to hit the beach, simply make your way down the private wood boardwalk, slip out of your flip flops, and sink your toes into the warm, sugary sand. At The Estate, you’re never more than a few steps away from salty skin and sandy toes. All of the stress of packing up for a beach day— sunscreen, ice, snacks, towels, toys, drinks, ugh!— simply disappears here.
In the evening, serve up fresh seafood from the gas grill and then gather around the beachfront fire pit— think gooey s’ mores for the kids and frosty cocktails for the adults. A convenient outdoor shower is ideal for rinsing off sun-kissed skin. Ready to go exploring? The Jamaica Beach Pool and Splash Pad, Pleasure Pier, and the Strand are only a quick hop-and-a-skip away.
Gather your friends and family together for a magical, memory-filled beach vacay at The Estate. Spoiler alert— you may never want to leave!

Wonderful
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Property location amazing. Only house around with direct beach access. Rained before arriving and house had leaks. One is over bed in the main floor bunk room. Three coffee pots only all one works. All in all amazing place
This property has several important assets. First of all, it really is ON THE BEACH. So easy to have kids in and out of the house on and off of the beach all day. Second great asset is spacious. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out and have a space for their crew. Third great asset is lots of table space. We had a group of 7 adults and 10 children. Plenty of beds. My suggestion would be replace the room with one double bunk with a queen bed. Plumbing etc could use a bit of stability. But overall, we had a fantastic stay. Nice weather helped.
Spectacular and breathtaking view when you walk up the stairs and see the ocean out of the large panoramic windows for the first time.
High end appliances and finishes. Large areas and lots of bedrooms, all with an amazing view.
Overall the exterior could use a fresh coat of paint or stain with a few touchups of interior paint, and the flooring could be updated perhaps with luxury vinyl tile. These are only suggestions and does not affect the overall view or vacation experience.
I would recommend and would stay there again.
My kids and I took a family vacation together and we had the best time. There were 19 of us and the house never felt crowded. Everything we needed was available. Even though it was so hot we were able to sit on the deck everyday and it was so nice with a nice breeze. We didn’t have any issues until the last day. We weren’t able to open the lockbox. Russell was quick to respond and give us a solution. We would definitely stay again. The access to the beach was the best thing about the house and the view from the master bedroom was amazing. Give this house a try. You won’t regret it.
Beautiful home in the photos listed not the same place in person floors were very dirty house reminded me of a party house for large groups. Lots of damage to the ceiling issues with mold plug-ins not working only positive was beautiful view. The house was very nice property before like in the photos, but has definitely been neglected. We never took our sandals off due to not feeling clean. I only wish it would let me post photos. Was told to put the trash in the trash cans, but they were overflowing .The grill was completely rusted out not usable at all. Does not look like they’ve cleaned up since the last storm hit sad because this property could be one of the nicest on the island , When I sent messages to the property manager, only thing I got back was check out is at 11. If you leave early, please let us know. If you’re looking for cleanliness, this is probably not the property for you👎👎👎
I've read the other reviews and some of it is fair. There are some cosmetic issues in many of the areas/rooms (i.e. touch up paint needed or matching tile), but nothing that crazy or disparaging.
Ants and broken appliances can occur at anyone's house without notice, so take issues like that with a grain of salt, as they were all the resolved when we showed up. Also, all of the appliances worked, except for 1 of the 2 stoves (1 was enough for us) and the separate built-in ice-maker (which is a luxury device anyways). There is also an additional side fridge and 3 arcade machines which aren't highlighted in the listing, which were great.. I can't speak to the heat issues, as we went in October, so we were relatively comfortable.
All in all, I would give it 4.5 stars, as it's not "perfect", but it's still a great stay at a great location, great view/deck, great layout/vibe/furnishings, and looks like a mansion compared to the neighboring houses. I thought it was a fair price based on my previous rentals, but I guess everyone will have their own opinions on that.

Poor Value for the Money
Positives - good location and nice outdoor space
Negatives-
Listing issues
1) there were supposed to be 7 bedrooms but there were only 6 with the sixth not having a door
2) there were supposed to be 4 1/2 bathrooms I guess that would be correct if somehow you call an outdoor shower a bathroom
House issues
1) two doors would not close or lock due warpage and one double door was screwed closed
2) A/C would get to 72 about 2 am after climbing to 79 during the day. This was aggravated by lack of window covering for large window and skylights (would be great in winter
3) the dryer took 2 hours to dry towels due to venting issues
4) There were numerous significant cosmetic maintenance items
5) Although there was an ice machine and a refrigerator ice maker neither were functional - we were supplied four ice cube trays
Amenity issues
1) We were provided 1 small bath towel, 1 washcloth and 1 sink towel for a five day stay (requested additional towels 3 times and then we purchased our own) - remember it was taking 2 hours to dry 25% of the towels
2) the coffee, sugar, etc provided did not last thru the first morning
For the price paid the house was a disappointment

Jamaica Beach Estate
We visited the area for a family vacation. For a large group it is an excellent space. Everyone had their own bedrooms and bathrooms in every corner of the house with showers. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils & appliances were nice including an extra fridge. The beds were comfortable & bedding was nice. The deck & lights were great with a stairway that led to a super clean beach. The house is located in a great area within about 10 miles of Galveston. The house was clean and the floors all tile. There are ALOT of stairs and you have to climb them to get to the main floor. Tons of windows to let the sunlight in as well. Two TV areas on the main floor. We had a video game on one and HULU on the other. The fire pit/patio were nice & it’s a nice yard to hang out in. We had room for a volleyball net & lawn darts. Now, If you are expecting a sparkling house this is not for you. The clear staircase walls and floors had a film from being washed (clean but cloudy), the patio windows were dirty enough to cloud the view. A few of the walls have chipped paint, one of the couches has a broken sinking cushion though it was super comfortable anyway. There is a big awesome dining room table with cloth chairs that were stained.Outside walls had some stucco that had fallen off. Communication with management was sub par resulting in security/law enf. questioning our presence the first night. Mostly a great place to stay if you can overlook the little things. Overall a good choice.

A Little Underwhelmed
We were a little disappointed in the condition of the place based what we had seen on the photos. I realize the hurricane caused some of the decorative issues, but none of the things we experienced were mentioned as a problem had communicated. In fact, we were told it was good to go.
There are a number of issues that need to be addressed: The A/C for the upstairs did not work well and needs maintenance. The various portable fans around the house do not work or are missing the power cords. The door handle to the jack-and-jill bathroom comes off. The GFCI plug on the back porch is not functioning. Lots of utensils, but no hotpads or trivets. A couple of the deck chairs are broken. The firepit is unusable. Wifi doesn't reach the downstairs bunk room.
Yes, this is a long list and probably overwhelming. Apparently many (or all) of these things have been a problem before as they are on the reviews. So, maybe shame on us for not reading the reviews more thoroughly.
It's nice being right on the beach, but it's also very near a public entrance. We felt the need to put our stuff out early just to ensure we had a space in front of the house.
Overall, for the price you are paying, it's more about having the rooms and beds rather than staying in a nice place. Don't expect a very nice place and you won't end up being disappointed.
Sadly this home is not as it appears online.The home is in great disrepair. It was advertised as a luxury home, and we were willing to pay a premium price for such a home to house our large family.However this is not a luxury home.The location is amazing. But the home was dirty, (don't think the ceiling fans have ever seen a duster),cobwebs in the cabinets.Dirty dishes and silverware in the drawers and cabinets.The floors were dirty, not only sandy, but sticky. Many things in disrepair, faucet handle came off, had to hold it just right to turn on the shower. A drain pipe under the sink in a bathroom wasn't attached,so flooded the lower cabinet. (my husband tightened it, as best he could, and we didn't use the sink anymore) There were lots of roaches. I understand the gulf coast and roaches, but I also know with regular exterminators coming in, the problem can be helped.Internet worked on the first day, then was out, called BeachBox, said they'd call me back but didn't. Sand and mud washed up on drive from the hurricane hasn't been cleared off, so it was impossible to not track sand into the house.Bedroom with hideabed is not a bedroom,shouldn't be advertised as such.Kitchen is well stocked with silverware, plates and glasses.3 coffee makers,1 works, Disposal sounds like it's on it's last leg.Bare sheetrock on the mainfloor ceilings, many beds, mostly bunkbeds, could use another bathroom for as many people who can sleep.House feels old.Very unkept.We're very disappointed.
I stayed here 2 years ago and the place was wonderful. Now, things are a neglected. Two toilets broke right way, the entry roof leaked, the garage had a broken pipe that poured on my car when someone showered, glass doors we filthy with child prints and dog noses. Overall this place needs a good bit of TLC
Check-in was very easy no problem. There was a fridge that one door wouldn’t close, the other fridge was too small so we had to go out and buy 3 coolers and ice to keep things cold. Other than that the kitchen had all utensils needed. Over all we had a GREAT time
