Staying at "A Wave Away" was a fantastic experience. Our kids declared that if we go back to Galveston this is the only place to stay ( we have gone three times in the last 8 years). We even had inclement weather and our host made sure that we were where is safe while we were out on the Seawall. We'll definitely use this location again when we go back.

This property was absolutely adorable and in the perfect location. It has everything you need for the beach and to keep the kiddos entertained, so no need to pack a bunch of extra stuff. It's a very peaceful neighborhood and clean. The house is equipped with everything you need to cook meals and is very spacious. My only complaint is the shower in the master bath has zero pressure, so we had to use the other shower. Everything else was perfect.

Stayed for a long weekend over Father’s Day with two kids (ages 11 & 14) and we had an amazing time. The property is fully equipped & super close to the beach, which made everything easy and enjoyable. Will definitely book again!

We enjoyed our stay very much. House was wonderful. loved decor & all the extra little touches. The only thing is...didn't realize we had to pay to use the community pool. Wish we'd know ahead of time.

This was my 1st time ever booking a trip! I was really hesitant at 1st but the host answered all my questions and she was fabulous! The place was so cute! Next time we book here, we are planning to bring our golf cart. My sister in law booked on the beach however, I actually thought this place was much nicer!

Loved our stay! I have so many good things to say! The host was amazing & so easy to work with. The house was very clean & the beds were comfy! Kitchen fully stocked & not to mention every item you need for a beach day! It made beaching with two toddlers as easy as you can make it LOL We will be back!

We came to Jamaica Beach to get away for a while and not be so close to Galveston. A Wave Away provided everything we needed from beach towels, wagons, outdoor games, chairs, and even a cool canopy! The host thought of every nuance to make the stay enjoyable… so enjoyable we decided to stay an extra day! The host accommodated us and was great with communication. Thank you, and we will be back!

This was by far the best stay that I have had. The owner personalized our stay and provided everything that we needed. The location was amazing and so was the view! We left a personal item behind and the host graciously offered to mail it to us. I would DEFINITELY check into this home again.

Our stay was absolutely wonderful. The owners put a lot of thought into this home making it a home away from home. The house has just about anything you could think of. Everything was of great quality regardless of it being a rental. This house is very well decorated and cozy. The property is in walking distance of the beach. And last but not least, Trish was very communicative with details of the upcoming trip. We were all in awe and will definitely be back. Thank you Trish for a delightful mini vacation!

A Wave Away is the perfect little beach house and is just a few minutes walk to the beach. It is exactly as stated in the description and has everything you could ask for. The beach accessories were put to good use as were the board games. Tisha was a pleasure to work with and was quick to respond to any questions we had about the house or the area. We absolutely loved our stay and cannot wait to return next year!

The home was wonderful, my family loved the home. My grandkids love the beach!!!! The short walk to the beach was good. You are just close enough to the beach but far enough away there isn’t a beach crowd around you. The home was great, nice, and clean and the ac worked great!!! The showers were awesome and plenty of room to relax. We will stay there again.

We stay at “A wave away” house two years in a row and it has been awesome both time. The host is great and the house has everything you need for a day on the beach. The beds are very comfortable and we had 9 people and we never ran out of hot water for showers. The house is located close enough to the beach it’s an easy walk to the surf!! My grandbabies loving staying there, before we leave they have to tell the house bye bye we see you next summer. lol.

We absolutely loved staying at A Wave Away. It is an extremely well appointed house. Plenty of places for everyone to sleep comfortably. Beautiful kitchen with everything you need. So close to the beach! Easy to find, check in, and check out. Loved all the beach supplies in the garage. Tisha is a dream to work with. It was all just so wonderful. Thank you!!

Our Beach house was beautiful, luxurious and flawless in regards to accommodations. It held 10 people comfortably. The location to the beach are in the minutes by foot. My sister experience an even larger beachfront nearby. I preferred the one I was in by far! Be wise and book here for your say! Thanks to everyone for memorable vacation! Juan

If you can find a vacancy at this remarkable property, take it! We stayed an entire week and didn’t want to leave. Guests included Mimi and Bob-Bob, our daughter and son-in-law and three grandchildren ages 5, 8 and 11 and our son and daughter-in-law that flew in from San Francisco. The amenities offered were too many to list. The third day of our stay a tropical storm showed its power. We had fun playing the games provided and Tisha kept us updated with info on the storm. We even went to town and saw a movie at the combo theater/bowling alley. I can’t say enough about the great property and wonderful host. We will definitely be back!

We stayed a few days over Fourth of July with my parents, brother and his family. It was great location to be close to the beach and be able to take littles back for naps. You can drive right on the beach. All the beach equipment was great quality and easy to access. The home was very clean and organized. Easy to find what we needed. The host was very communicative. The place is a real getaway. Next time I may budget renting a golf cart to avoid the sand in my car. 😂

We stayed over Thanksgiving week and easily checked in- our host thoughtfully proved snacks, a note, and a fresh flower arrangement for our holiday weekend! The kitchen had everything one could need, enough coffee for our stay, and a combination koreg and drip coffeemaker. Bedrooms were roomy with a nice towel and washcloth stack for each guest. The bunk bed room was a hit with the teenagers with their private deck access. A plethora of games and puzzles were provided and used! A very short walk to beach, a good convenience store with to-go cafe options… we had everything needed. I would stay here again and again!!!!

Highly appreciated how well the ac worked. Everything was clean, beds were comfortable, short walk to beach, had tons of amenities, ample parking for 5 cars, filled propane tanks to bbq, close to stores and coffee shop. Great communication with host, super easy check in. 10 out of 10. if they were any cons and im just nit picking, didnt have hdmi cable for nintendo system, and top bunkbed mattress was higher than railing, we didnt have anyone sleeping on there. Home away from home, could go on and on about how fabulous it was. Oh and my 13 yo son chose this beach because of the beautiful decor and i love how well the description of the place was written! with all that i didnt find any dust on them.will definitely stay again.

My family really enjoyed our stay! The property was in great condition, very clean, and had more amenities and conveniences than expected. The reviews are all accurate - this is an extremely well run property. The owner was very responsive and accessing the property was a breeze. Being so close to the beach was awesome and I was impressed to see the owner provided all the beach gear we could’ve needed ( beach toys, chairs, coolers, wagon, yard games, boogie board). There were 4 adults and 2 kids in our group. Everyone had more than enough room, beds/linens were all comfortable, A/C worked very well, great showers, etc. In addition to taking advantage of the fully equipped kitchen, we all loved having Way West Grill & Pizzeria close by for dinner! This iss the best experience I’ve had with a rental. We will definitely be staying here when we come back for our next Galveston visit. Thank you!!
