Weekend Stay

This was a great property and we would stay here again. I only had one issue while we were staying and we weren’t able to have the pool heated. The check out instructions should have a little better explanation but overall this was a great property! We enjoyed our stay.

Midweek getaway

Really unique property that was great for our squad of two families with small kids. Would be an epic house for a more adult oriented stay as well. You do have to drive to the beach but the closest point each access point is all of 2 minutes away and you can drive on that part of the beach.

Great place for larger groups with kids!

We had a large group with several kids. This was just the place. The outdoor area was a perfect place to gather with so many seating options…shade, sun, hammock, chair. My son has mobility issues, so the bedroom on ground level was perfect for us.

A memorable weekend.

Thank you for making May 2016 a memory to cherish. The kids had a great time. They loved going to the beach during the day then hanging in the pool or hot tub at night. We definitely would like to rent this house again. Thank you so much.

Enjoyed our stay!

Family trip to the beach. The house was clean and accommodated 10 adults/kids and a baby. The shared living space and pool were just what we were looking for. We did not realize that the bunk room is not accessible from the main house, only by an outside entrance. This was a challenge with small children you could not leave them alone by the pool while entertaining in the kitchen/living space. This created separation. Overall enjoyed the stay! Vacasa was responsive when contacted.

Great outdoor place but neighbors aren’t happy with place being rented

This place was everything we wanted for our kids birthday party. Unfortunately the neighbors called the cops on us twice because of kids in the pool after 12 midnight. The owner was kind about it all but the cops coming out ruined our event two nights in a row. Although we loved the party layout, we prob won’t stay here again. And we loved the hot tub/pool duo! That was great for adults watching kids in the pool.

Outstanding Outdoor Space

Great house and great outdoor space. It was perfect for our group of 2 families. A few minor cleanliness issues with the outdoor bars, but the interior was immaculate. The downstairs kitchenette was so perfect since we mostly cooked outside on the grill. It was nice to not have to pack all the food up and down stairs. The only real issue was the pool never heated up, but that never stopped the kids from enjoying it. The hot tub more than made up for it with the adults. The neighborhood is very quiet in the evenings which was awesome for chill evenings and winding down after a busy day. I would absolutely recommend and rent it again.

Wet Mermaid

We had a great time…pool and deck area with the bar and hot tub was everyone’s favorite. Pool is large and about 3’6” deep so that was a plus! House does need a good cleaning, musty smell in lower rooms, take your Lysol. Game/workout room is more of a storage room…no weights,no games, etc. Agent was great when we had an issue with the clothes dryer. Convenience store and other businesses right around the corner. Beach is close and clean.

Wonderful Private Oasis, away from it all...

We enjoyed our vacation at this house with lots of time spent playing water volleyball in the pool and enjoying the heated jacuzzi at night to relax. The King and Queen beds upstairs were very comfortable. The feedback from adults in the futun room and Queen bed downstairs were that they needed add'l padding for comfort, but the smaller kids had no complaints. Had slight issue with TV in futon room, but owner was very responsive and had resolved within the hour. Awesome overall service and the place was well kept and maintained. Recommend to anyone wanting to get away to a private oasis and relax. We plan to revisit next year.

So much potential…

This place has so much potential... It's in a quiet neighborhood, close to the beach, has a great outdoor area, great balconies, and plenty of space for bigger groups to spread out and have their own space when needed. Room for Improvement: We understand coastal air and moisture are hard on structures, but not a single door in this house opened smoothly. At one point a few of us were trapped on the front balcony until two people (one on the inside and one on the outside) were able to lift together to get the stuck and unlevel door open. After that we understood why someone had shoved a paper towel into the door latch. When we arrived the lever on the upstairs toilet was broken and we had to remove the tank lid and pull the chain each time we flushed. After a full day and a half of constantly contacting the managing company regarding the toilet and door issues they finally sent someone to replace the toilet lever but we didn't notice any improvement in the doors. All the downstairs rooms had a musty smell, and struggled to keep cool despite us making every effort to minimize going in and out and keeping the doors shut as much as possible. We prefer to book through owner owned rentals because we appreciate the love and care people put into their own properties vs corporate hotel chains. Dealing with this particular management company (not VRBO) felt worse than dealing with even the biggest hotel chains.

Great Stay

Location is great. Amenities were great. Downstairs rooms are completely separate from each other and upstairs apartment with portable cooling units vs Central heat and air, so not as comfortable as the upstairs apartment, but this was manageable and the pool area became the centralized meeting spot. Overall a great stay

Fun But hot!

The location was great but the AC units couldn’t handle the heat. The breaker keep blowing. We had to have people rent an hotel because the bunk room didn’t hold the air and was hot. Had to turn off the unit in lower kitchen to make the AC in bunk room somewhat work. Had to move people in the living room upstairs. The pool was great. AC worked great upstairs. Need to supply more trash bags, paper towels and toilet paper. Keep calling the new management company and got someone but they didn’t nothing. Keep saying will keep in touch with status but never did.

Fabulous!

Our weekend stay at The Wet Mermaid was fabulous! The pool and hot tub were clean and perfect for relaxing. The pool area had a bar area, hammocks , deck chairs, a swing, and a large table. The evenings on the hammock were idyllic! There are two bedrooms on the pool level and two bedrooms upstairs. Everyone slept comfortably. There are three enclosed porch areas upstairs which were ideal for reading, visiting, having coffee, or just resting. The kitchen is well stocked. There was excellent communication with the manager. The property is well maintained and it is a great beach house! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The beach is an easy half mile walk. There is a convenience store a quarter mile away. We hope to return to The Wet Mermaid the next time we plan a trip to Galveston!

Vacation well spent!

The house was everything and more! We enjoyed the low key area of Jamaica Beach, it was just as beautiful as anywhere else along the gulf. The house was very unique and very fun! We utilized the hot tub and pool every day. Both were clean, warm and all around enjoyable for my family and I. The local management team were super nice, easy to communicate with, and just all around professional. Thank you we had an excellent experience!
