Great get away

This is a great place to stay with family and friends close to beach access and far enough away from wild party life if that’s what you want but close enough you can join as well.

4 Generations Girls’ Trip

Jamaica Beach is one of our favorite places to be and this was, by far, our best experience thus far! The home was extremely clean and well equipped. The host was very communicative and courteous. We were so comfortable that we extended our stay for two additional nights, and we’re already planning or next stay!

Weekend Get Away

Perfect location with quick beach access. The property was great for my teenage kids to be close to other friends for prom beach weekend. There was a minor issue with the master shower not being warm but Tisha replied quickly. The outdoor patio furniture was a little worn but to be expected with the water/humidity.

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.

Home away from home

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.

Galveston Vacation

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.

Everything I expected for a relaxing visit!

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!

A Wave Away Worth The Stay

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!

Totally Amazing

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!
