Inside, Jamaica Me Happy offers a comfortable layout with a dedicated lounging area perfect for entertaining the kids.

As you enter the open living and dining space you will notice the vaulted ceiling and space for your whole crew. Two overstuffed sofas and a plush armchair face the large flatscreen television. Your whole group will love to snuggle up here in the evenings to watch television or host a fun family game night.

In the kitchen, a unique island features a rustic, reclaimed-wood workspace and a tiered bar with seating for three. This kitchen is the perfect space to brew your morning coffee, pack up snacks for the beach, or serve up happy hour cocktails before dinner.

The primary suite sits off the living space and has a king-size bed and a spa-like bathroom with a gigantic, custom-built, step-in shower with a built-in bench. Relax here at the end of a long day at the beach while the water cools your sun-kissed skin.

Mold health issues

This place has potential but it is very poorly kept up with. The pool is the probably the nicest thing about it but way overpriced for what it really is. First of all before we even made it to the weekend stay we had a life and death emergency with one of the people staying and unfortunately we had to try and cancel. We did not purchase insurance and tried to speak with the Vrbo owner and maybe work something out. Even rescheduling to literally any other date. No sympathy whatsoever. But hey that’s on me for not buying trip insurance. The first thing we noticed when we got there was the mold and standing water and the strong smell of a wet house. The pool had potato chips, toilet paper, trash and even a bandaid from the previous guests still inside the pool. The bbq pit area had literal algae in most of the area under the deck and was slippery to walk on. Inside the countertops were sticky with food. Toe nails on the floor. Coffee cups still had coffee in them. The master tv did not work. Turned on but you’re forced to watch the no signal screen saver until you fall asleep. Remote did not work as well. Trash cans outside were full. I did find it weird that there’s a camera in the back corner of the property facing the driveway but also has full view of the pool. Women and children in sure can be seen in the camera in bikinis or whatever they wear to swim. All in all it was definitely it worth what I paid for and my main concern is the mold found in this home.

The pool is great; clean and well maintained. It was a great way to end our day each night with the kids. The firepit was wonderful. Enjoyed making S’mores and relaxing in the evening. The location was convenient with a general store, gas, and the beach in walking or driving distance. Our concerns were with the minimal kitchen supplies. We wanted more silverware, salt and pepper, baking sheets etc and they weren’t available. We didn’t realize from the pictures that one of the bedrooms was in the basement. This bedroom did not look as if it had been thoroughly cleaned. There were huge dust bunnies and a sock behind one of the couches and a dead roach under one bed. During our stay we also had problems with very large roaches in the downstairs bedroom and one in the upstairs living room.

Family weekend

We had a great time . It was just too short . But all the negative reviews are misleading it is a BEACH HOUSE and being from south Padre Island it is just that the only bad thing is the downstairs bedroom was very humid and hot the a/c only cools the sitting area so we had to purchase two fans . And it didn’t really explain it was downstairs in the description but other than that it was fine . There was a leak I. The ceiling that we reported and he responded to it and I’m sure it was fixed after we left .

Family weekend

The property location was very convenient, we enjoyed a lot however the house needs a maintenance ASAP. There was a leak in a room we stayed, eventually the roof felt off, the a/c duct from the wall kept coming off. We had to fix it. There was broken glass all over the ground by the pool and we had kids with us. We removed a big ball of hair from the pool floor drain. Like i said urgent maintenance! However we really enjoyed, we made the best out of it. And the management did responded fas to my messages.

Great statement

Very easy booking process, the property is very close to the beach it’s about a couple blocks away…very nice large pool, they provided towels, my favorite part was the outdoor fire pit they do not provide fire logs make sure to take your own logs if you are planning on using it also if you are going to do any cooking make sure to take your own seasonings they only had pepper and onion powder… all and all it was a great stay.

Girl Scout Slumber Party

Our camping trip was cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances so a few of us GS moms decided to take the girls on a little beach getaway. The house was clean and well stocked with all of the essentials. The checkin process was super easy and everything was well communicated. We all had a great time and would definitely stay here again.

Responsive host, but…

I recently stayed at this Vrbo property, and unfortunately, it had several issues. Upon checking in, we found it to be very dirty. The kitchen light kept flickering, hinting at possible electrical problems.The AC also had leaks, and the rug was very filthy, making the overall cleanliness a significant issue. Additionally, the door got stuck, adding to our frustrations. On a positive note, the host was very responsive and sent a maintenance man to help with some of the problems, they also mentioned sending a cleaning crew, but that was never fulfilled. The neighborhood was nice and quiet, which was a plus. Overall, despite the small hiccups, it turned out to be an okay stay..

Hurricane ruined Vacation

Due to Hurricane Beryl, we were not able to go. Galveston was shut down, property had no power, city asked for limited water usage, and roads were flooded. Property owner wanted us to reschedule but we were not able to do that, so we asked for a refund (per VRBO natural disaster policy). The owner would not give us a full refund. Told our cc company that we went and used the property.

Not what was pictured

I’m sad to have to write this review. I’ve used VRBO many times, especially in Galveston. I have pictures to support everything below -the downstairs unit was unusable, mold growing on the ceiling, large cobwebs in the corners with spiders on them, and smelled of mold. -the stairs going up are in dire need of repairs, main support was rotted -the pool was filthy. My son in law fished out a dead crab, bandaids and dog bones. The pool guy showed up the next day to clean it. It was not clean on our arrival. He cleaned and shocked it but told us to wait 5 hours before getting in -the door has massive gaps in it. -the floor inside the door has water damage and is rotted, most likely from hurricane Beryl, but needs to be repaired as it sinks in when walked on -the grass hadn’t been mowed, yard was not appealing -the electrical, where to begin. So many extension cords outside that was running the electricity. When you turned on the garbage disposal the kitchen light would go out, I couldn’t use my hairdryer with the bathroom lights on. All electrical outlets were loose -no toilet paper holders, no towel holders or hooks -the master bath had French doors with handles on the outside only. If you shut the doors while in the bathroom you weren’t able to get out -Ants, roaches and spiders everywhere. Ants were on the sofa, on the living room rug. We found a spider on my granddaughters pack in play -refrigerator has broken shelves in the door, all our stuff fell when we opened it

Bachelorette Cruise first stop

My mom booked a cruise for my friends and I. This was where we stayed the night before, we thought it was a little bit closer to the beach but still not too far. The downstairs had an off smell like it was mildew or something but we just aired it out a little bit. We had so much fun in the pool it has little barstools that were so cute! Definitely needed bug spray!
