Great condo, location and view

The condo was perfect for our family of four. It's in a great location with a wonderful view. The decor is lovely and very comfortable. You have to cross the street to get to the beach, but the Victorian is at an intersection with a light so it's very easy. Wonderful trip overall!!

A+ Location

My family and I enjoyed our quick getaway to the beach. This location is unbeatable, just load up your wagon and cross the street and you’re at the beach. The property was quiet and had everything we needed. Kathy was always very attentive to any message or question I had.

Great room and location

The rental was exactly as shown and Kathy was very helpful. The walk in shower was the best. We didn't use the pool due to social distancing. The front desk said it was 25 people max but I counted over 50 at one point and we chose not to use the pool. So we were pretty bummed about the beach being closed then not using the pool. Overall the condo was great!

Clean condo great location

The condo was so clean! And we were so surprised and thankful to find water and coffee pods! We flew in from out of state and were limited on what we could bring. When we went to the store we found ALL the bottled water was gone from the shelves! So we were so thankful we had some to hold us over until the next day. Kathy was very accommodating even trying to help us get an app on the TV for watching playoffs. She is very responsive and wonderful to work with. The location is perfect too and had the weather been warmer we probably would have enjoyed the heated pool and beach more. I would recommend this condo to anyone!

Above expectations, highly recommend.

As described and then some. Better than the pics. Tastefully decorated. Walking gate access and traffic light with crosswalk for beach/ocean access. Owner provides pool accessories stored on balcony. Balcony with chairs and table offers pool and ocean view. For your beach time, there is a wagon, cooler bag, chairs, etc in bedroom closet for your use. Short drive for a more private beach experience without traffic noise. Easy access tiled shower and plenty of towels available. Garage parking pass and pool access wrist band issued at office upon check in after $35 fee paid. Easy Keypad entry. Friendly and helpful neighbors in this gated community. Grocery stores and restaurants close by. Beautiful pool area, well maintained grounds. There are 2 pools and a jacuzzi area. If you a require elevator, call ahead and make sure they are working. Hurricane damage repairs were underway during our August visit and sadly all 3 elevators giving access to this unit were temporarily unavailable for this 3rd floor unit. Owner responds immediately to any issues. We have already booked our next visit.

We came here for our daughter’s 10th birthday this weekend as we LOVE Galveston. Even with the little bit of rain we had an enjoyable time. The condo was one of the best we’ve stayed in and now we know which one we want everytime we come back. The bed was nice and comfy, updated condo, loved the view, owners were super nice too! Will be back!

We enjoyed being able to walk to the beach, Walmart and for frozen yogurt at Orange leaf or Italian ice at Rita’s. There are heated pools on the property. The host was great about communicating with us. Check in was smooth. Just recommend screen shooting the info from the host to easily find all the info needed for check in. Everything was is great condition. There are sand toys and a wagon that guests get to borrow. We very much enjoyed the balcony for watching the waves, chatting and reading. We would happily recommend this property.

Short Getaway

This was a good location for two people, as it is very small. The photos are misleading about the size. Yes, there are bunks and a fold out sofa, but the space is probably less than 600 sq ft. There are plenty of towels and beach toys. The kitchen is great, and the coffee pods were a nice touch. The bathroom needs a facelift. The shower tile grout was very dirty, and there was mold and peeling paint on the ceiling around the A/C vent in the bathroom. The bed is comfortable, with lots of pillows. The Master bedroom closet has hooks on the wall and a short rack for hanging clothes. Again, very small. The only window in the condo (master bedroom) has broken locks and opens onto the hallway, where the gate to this unit doesn't close properly. The bistro table and chairs pictured in the listing were not there. Instead, there were four plastic chairs, and a plastic folding table for our morning coffee. It is a good location, near the beach and restaurants, and was very quiet. It fit our spending budget for a two-night stay.
