JAMAICA BEACH
Jamaica Beach Texas is one of the most popular beaches and sought-after neighborhoods when it comes to vacation rentals – what it lacks in size, it makes up for action during the summer months, holidays, and event weekends! Jamaica Beach is far enough out to be away from the hustle and bustle of Seawall (8 miles), but not too far away from most of the island attractions (10 miles from 61st Street). Jamaica Beach also has its own community pool and private marina and boat ramp, Regatta Basin, a community pavilion, and playground.

GULF COAST CONCIERGE
Ryson partners exclusively with Gulf Coast Concierge to make your time on the island unforgettable! Gulf Coast Concierge understands it's the little things that count. Create your own adventures with beach gear and golf cart rentals, a sunset cruise, or a bonfire and smores on the beach. Gulf Coast Concierge also offers fishing charters, photo sessions, and a variety of in-home services. If you can dream it, we will do our best to make it happen!

NOTES

Jamaica Beach is a residential neighborhood, and quiet hours are enforced between 10 pm and 7 am.

Please safely enjoy the electric fireplace.

EXTENDED STAYS
Monthly rentals are considered in the off-season - Winter Texans, snowbirds, retirees, corporate stays, medical professionals, university students, and plant workers are welcome. Extended stays or monthly rentals require a stay of 30+ nights, and these reservations are tax exempt. Although most extended stay reservations are between the middle of November through February, extended stays may be considered anytime between Labor Day and Memorial Day. Extended stay reservations may not be placed online, but a Ryson Vacation Planner would love to answer any questions you may have and help you reserve your extended stay.

Property was beautiful and exactly what was advertised on the Vrbo listing. The rooms were beautiful and spacious, beds were comfy, and the amenities were great. Pool looks smaller in pics than it actually was, we often had 4 adults and 3 kids in it no problem. Plenty of activities, games, and lawn sports onsite to keep everyone entertained. Nephew and niece caught their first fish and blue crabs on this trip (right off the deck)! Will definitely come back!

The house is beautiful! It can very comfortably sleep 16. There are two large family areas and the outside decks. The kitchen has everything you need and then more! The bedrooms and bathrooms are gorgeous! We fished, swam, played the games in the house, and sat by the fire pit and the water at night. It was like staying at a 5 star resort! We really enjoyed it!
