We had a great stay at A Wave Away in Galveston. It was clean, well-equipped, and just a short walk to the beach. It's our favorite area of Galveston to stay in. Highly recommend!
My husband and our two dogs enjoyed this pointe west beach house for almost a week, we found it to be comfortable and relaxing, the kitchen was good and the deck was nice to enjoy the sea breeze. It’s a short walk to the beach and a quick golf cart drive to the club house. We would go again!
Beautiful property, cozy and welcoming. Wonderfully decorated and well maintained. Our family loved this cute beach house and will definitely be back! So close to amenities and a short walk away to the boardwalk beach entrance. Host was very informative and kept up excellent communication making the whole process smooth and seamless. We highly recommend this property and give it 5 stars!
Not only did we love the home and the location to the beach, but when our refrigerator went out the property manager swiftly went above and beyond to make sure we were set. He handled every detail so intentionally. We couldn't be happier. They even had a lovely surprise bouquet of flowers for my mom's 70th Birthday celebration. Thanks for a memorable time!
Lovely property, nice neighbors, easy access to the beach, even for my 71 yo mother! Beds were comfortable, great water pressure, fast hot water, heat and air conditioning on point! The only negative was cooking, as the far alarm is so close to the kitchen, just opening the preheated oven kept causing it to go off. We made cookies and biscuits for Christmas! We'll definitely be back!
Oh yeah, very pet friendly neighborhood with waste bags and trash cans near by also!
The owner was amazing and attentive!
We decided to take a last minute trip to the beach to end our spring break. We got lucky finding this property and was a great fit for our family of 4. We traveled with 2 children and the house was very accommodating for their ages, 4 and 8- they loved the bunk beds! Very family friendly and the close proximity to the beach was exactly what we were looking for. We were able to use the camp chairs, beach toys and wagon (all provided) to load up our things for short walk to beach. The pools in the Pointe West community were also an added bonus and just a 4 minute car ride away. As described in the listing we did pay for access to the pools. The restaurant in the resort area by the pool is under construction and opening again beginning of April. The hosts were very responsive and checked in on us daily. Check in and out process was very easy. We will definitely book this property again!
We had the best weekend and wish we could've stayed longer!
Thank you so much for providing such a welcoming, clean home for us! Y'all were so great to work with and have already recommended your property to other family members!
This property was exactly what we needed for a relaxing vacation! We ordered groceries in town, picked them up on the way to the beach house and did not have to worry about anything else.
Great communication with the property owners as well!
We had 4 kids and 2 adults on Spring Break and despite the cold weather, we highly enjoyed our stay at Pointe West. The hot tub and amenities of Pointe West were very helpful with this age group. Definitely plan to make it to this rental more often this year. Well stocked, very clean and comfortable!
Thank you for allowing us to use the property. Quick note, we found the garage clicker and key in the bed of my truck. Please let me know where to mail it. Thank you .
We have stayed many places in Galveston and this is one of our top spots now. The house was very clean. It was stocked with all the things you could need. You know the things you don’t think to bring. Hand soaps body wash hair soaps everywhere there was even aloe Vera lotion in the bathrooms even had a packn play.
Everything you can think of, the owners really think ahead for their guests They had beach towels and accessories they had some toys for the kids
We loved the bunk bed room the kids got a kick out of all the toys there. Enough towels for use, I mean towels on counters and in drawers my son said towels everywhere! enough for the whole stay. We loved hanging out down on the porch while cooking out we played corn hole. The chairs were comfortable. They have Roku on all tvs and access to any subs you have but disney is available on all of the tvs! the color sheets and crayons by the dinner table kept our 2.5yo busy! I mean this was the most family friendly place my husband and I were both impressed! We will be back!
This home is impeccable! It was my husband and I and another couple with two small dogs. There was plenty of space, the seating and bedding are super comfortable, even the patio furniture (high quality) with a nice view of a lit up fountain at night. They provide so many towels, wash cloths in each room that are really nice quality (plus beach towels). Something unique to other properties was how they have wired this place with electrical outlets, Rokus in each room and the Wifi was super fast (4 computers, 2 tablets, and 4 phones). If you need to work a little it's perfect. We had everything we needed to cook in the kitchen and the grill downstairs was clean and easy to use. Be sure to bring baggies, cling wrap, foil or tupperware for leftovers to store or take snacks to the beach/pool. You can get these items at a local Kroger or Walmart.
The beach is a 5 min. walk and enjoyable through the neighborhood. They have walkovers with stairs or a ramp to the beach (the ramp walkover is the next walkover to the left). They have signs about the rattlesnake habitat (reason they have walkovers to the beach), so just be mindful walking near tall grasses. We never saw one.
The pool and gym were great, get there by 10am weekday to get an umbrella table.
I can't say enough about Keith (Ritz Rentals and Hospitality) and his consistent, timely communication. Thank you Keith for a great stay! We will come back to this home (just as pictures show).
