Watch dolphins, fish from the pier (or from one of our canal, bay or beachside rental homes), surf the waves, kayak, beach comb and soak up the sun and sea air. And after a day of activities, stop by one of the nearby popular hangouts - The West End Marina & Restaurants, The Waterman Seafood Grill and/or Cafe Michael Burger for a fun atmosphere to enjoy snacks, cocktails or meal!

Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Linda W. 7 Jan 2019 #### Fun time! We enjoyed our stay so much! This is a roomy and clean house with the most comfortable beds and well appointed kitchen. We had plenty of room for us parents, 3 adult kids, Grandma and our well behaved dog. We played dominoes indoors during times of heavy rain. There is a short 15-20 minute commute to restaurants, the beach (very close!), grocery stores and Galveston attractions. We \*almost\* caught 1 crab in the canal with a crab trap on the premises, but enjoyed a seafood boil despite our lack of crabbing skills. Minor note, we have a daughter with mobility issues. The outdoor stairs were tricky for her, but not slippery in the rain. However there are two step-in showers, one downstairs (no interior staircase) off of the large sleeping quarters/rec room and one upstairs. ##### Linda W. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary K. 3 Aug 2018 #### Perfect house on the canal with beautiful sunset views and an amazing back yard! Our group of 10 and small dogs spent a week at Sea-Esta in Jamaica Beach. We have stayed in a different canal home the previous 2 years that we really liked but were ready to try something different. WOW are we glad we did! Sea-Esta was absolutely perfect. The house is fully stocked with everything needed to cook inside or grill outside. Linens were very nice and the beds were all very comfortable. The younger adults all stayed in the downstairs room where they had plenty of room to sleep and also enjoy the pool table. As wonderful as the house itself is, we all enjoyed the downstairs patio and back yard. The sunset views each evening were spectacular! And it is fully fenced so our small dogs did not have to be leashed when outside. The palm trees not only add to the beauty but also provide shade throughout the day. And as an added bonus, we brought a small boat for crabbing/fishing and loved being able to use the boat slip at the house to store it in when not using it. Overall we had such a wonderful week and look forward to staying at Sea-Esta again and again. Mary K Newark, TX ##### Mary K. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Esther M., Hayward, Wisconsin 15 Mar 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice The home was clean and just as described. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen well stocked and had all we needed to prepare our meals. More importantly, we were able to bring our dogs which is a must for our annual vacations. We never used the lower level so not able to share those details but there would be plenty of room for a larger group to spread out and enjoy themselves. The management company were excellent to work with and very responsive. The location was a short drive to the beach and convenient to tie up a boat. We only had dinner out once at Waterman's (five minutes away) and enjoyed the food & experience. My mother and 10 year old nephew visited the area downtown known as "The Strand". They thoroughly enjoyed learning the history of the Galveston pirates along with the shopping and food options. Unfortunately for us, our plans came with unlucky timing (just two weeks after the 100 year ice storm). We had an issue with the neighbor to the right who yelled at us for tying up our boat on her fencepost (we assumed was a common fence shared by both homes). We were eventually able to calm them down resulting in a more friendly and cordial existence afterwards but it was a bit of a bummer to deal with during vacation. In their defense I think they were overwhelmed with pipe damage and took their frustrations out on us. Perhaps consider if slip not available for renters installing cleats for seawall tie up. The neighbors to the left (a young family with little kids and a swimming pool) were super friendly and nice. They provided us with places to visit and dine. My husband is a professional fisherman and had hoped to fish but the ice storm and cold front made fishing a lesson in futility. Literally no one was out in the bay fishing and conversations with locals indicated a major fish kill occurred prior to our arrival. We also had a negative experience with Galveston Boat Rentals. We rented a boat for our two week stay but they provided an unsafe and inoperable boat which we returned an hour after delivery. We've had to 'fight' them for a refund, have received a partial refund with a promise of the rest but we are still waiting. We did rent a nice boat from Finney Boat Rentals after our bad experience and we highly recommend them. The only suggestions I'd have would be to consider adding dressers (or shelves) to the two other bedrooms for clothing but definitely recommend the home for families or couples. ##### Esther M.

The pool table was popular. Fishing was sparse. Lots of room, a/c worked well. Beds were comfortable. ##### Mike M.
