We had a wonderful vacation! It’s a great location with quick walking distance to the beach and grocery store. The inside was so clean and cozy and we felt right at home. The hosts were also very responsive and helpful. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’ll be back!

We were absolutely thrilled with "Good Vibrations," it was appropriately named. An attractive, spotlessly clean and comfortably furnished living space was just the start. The best part was the super easy access to a beautiful stretch of beach! We had our two dogs with us, and we really appreciated the fact that, unlike most of the beaches on Galveston Island, the beach at "Good Vibrations" is set well off the main road. Gives peace of mind just in case your pet should manage to slip away for a moment. It also created a welcome feeling of solitude for us humans. We were also very impressed with the host, who was so accommodating, responsive and thoughtful. No complaints and many compliments for Vacay Times, who retrieved and shipped the iPad my daughter left behind. Thank you, Vacay Times! We will definitely return to this beautiful place.

Steps from a private beach with amazing views out of the windows and balcony. Spacious, modern and clean inside, lots of bedrooms and a good size family area, although couches were a bit small. Bedrooms and bathrooms are gorgeous and well outfitted with comfy beds and clean linens, plenty of towels and toiletries. Kitchen was fine for our needs but would need some additional items if you plan to cook a lot at the house. Appreciated the coffee/creamers/sugar for our morning beach walk. Hosts were responsive and helpful. That part of the beach is beautiful and private, but the roadway behind the house was a bit noisy at times from the balcony (not disruptive when inside).

Wonderful House and Location
We stay in Galveston quite a bit and I think this is our new favorite house. 2nd Row to a beautiful and uncrowded beach, close to many restaurants, and not that far from Galveston. The house is new and clean, with comfortable beds, and all the kitchen essentials. We loved the covered porch with ocean views. We will be back!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Good Vibrations. The house was perfect for us. We loved the proximity to the beach especially. Everything was as expected and we will more than likely be back. Two things that were out of the control of the hosts were the mosquitos and the mess on the beach......the driftwood and seaweed were all over it, probably from all the storms. They did clean it up to some degree every day and it didn't stop us from spending lots of time by the ocean. We had a lot of difficulty with the front door which stuck and was hard to open but we were told by Trey (the property manager who came to help us with the TV) that they were aware of it and would be fixing it.

We mostly loved how walkable to the beach it was, though it was covered in kelp and smelled terrible the weekend we went. The tide was high the whole time, but nothing the host can do about the weather. The only things that would truly make the space 5-star for us would be lamps in the bedroom(rainy the whole time we were there and the overhead lighting weren’t the vibes, drip-coffee maker, and some higher quality pillows. All of the pillows were filled with cheap filling. Otherwise, the location was perfect for getting away and the host was very responsive, friendly, and attentive.

We absolutely loved our stay! The location and view fulfilled our dreams of staying in a beach house with all the sites, sounds, and fun of being on the ocean. The quiet area of Jamaica Beach is only a short drive to Galveston and was the perfect distance to the many activities on the island. The interior is completely updated with tasteful beach decor and all of the beds were very comfortable. The management company was very responsive and made sure everything was clean and beach towels fully stocked before we checked in. I highly recommend this home for families looking for a beautiful and quiet get away!

If you are looking for a house close to the beach but away from the hustle and bustle of traffic and large crowds then this house is for you! We loved the location. Within walking distance to the beach and far enough from town that you really feel like you’re at the beach but close enough to drive in to the restaurants and attractions. Very clean and bright. Major plus was the allowing of dogs. We will be back!
