This first floor condo is close the the third elevator in the property and you will park near the elevator in covered and uncovered spaces first come first serve, not reserved. The kitchen is stocked with upgraded dishes, silverware, pots, pans and other utensils including blender, toaster and Keurig and drip coffee maker.

***As you enter the complex, you might notice a small construction project at the very
front. This is no where near this condo!

At the complex, there is ample non-reserved covered and uncovered parking. You can pay the front office upon arrival or the next morning if arriving after hours. A parking fee must be paid to Maravilla office upon arrival. The office does not accept cash. Parking Rules and prices beginning June 1, 2021 are as follows:

FAQ:
RESORT / ACCOMMODATIONS QUESTIONS:

1. Do you allow pets? Pets are allowed at the Maravilla Resort. We only allow non-vicious breed pets that do not bark. Continual barking will disturb the guest adjacent to your condo and you may be asked to leave. Vicious pets, as precious as many are, will frighten other guests at the resort and present a risk to other guests. Also, our insurance does not allow vicious breeds on premises.

2. How far is the beach at the Maravilla Resort? The Resort is located on the Galveston Seawall across from the ocean. The beach is kind of rocky right in front of the Maravilla but as you walk to the left, the beach gets more and more sandy and wider. There are other nice and less crowded beaches further west as well. I suggest Pocket Park 1 $15 per day or Pocket Park 2 with free parking.

3. I see your condo sleeps up to 8 for 2 bedroom condos. Can I bring more people? The city fire code does not allow us to have more than the specified number of guests per condo. If you have more guests than the condo accommodates, you should rent an additional condo.


4. Do you supply beach towels? We only supply 6 beach towels.

5. Do you allow parties at the Resort? This is a family Resort. Most guests are here to enjoy a quiet and peaceful time with their children. The Resort management does not allow loud music or inappropriate behavior.

6. I see your check in / check out times are 4pm and 11am. Can I check in early, arrive late or check out late? You can arrive as early as you like and enjoy the amenities at the Resort. We will attempt to accommodate reasonable requests for early access to the condo and late check-out. It depends on the guests departing the morning of your arrival and arriving the day of your departure. It usually takes about 2 to 3 hours for our housekeepers to make ready a condo for the next guests so a 2pm check in is possible, but you must have authorization to check in early or check out late. You can only get authorization by texting or emailing me THE DAY BEFORE YOUR ARRIVAL or DEPARTURE. Verbal authorizations will not be honored because I always tell everyone to text or email me the day prior to arrival or departure. If you want a 10am check in for instance, you should book the night before as well or if you want a 4pm departure, you should book that night as well.

7. How do I get a key for the condo? We use KEYLESS door locks. You will not have to obtain a key! You will be given an access code prior to your arrival. Make sure you put my phone number in your speed dial in your phone in case you have problems with the door lock. The front desk for the HOA cannot give you access.

8. What if I have a problem during my stay? You should immediately call me at the phone number provided upon booking. We want your vacation to be stress free and will make every effort to remedy any issues right away.

9. Do I have to pay $10 per car per night to park? I have 3 vehicles in my party, what do we do? The homeowner's association at the Maravilla Resort charges $10 per vehicle per day. You will be required to pay this $10/ vehicle by check or credit card at the time of your arrival. If you have multiple vehicles, you will have to purchase parking passes for each.

10. Is there parking at the complex? Yes, there is garage parking. If the garage is full, there is overflow parking in the uncovered areas of the complex. If you have a boat or motorhome, please contact me so we can make arrangements.

11. I will be arriving late. What do I do? You can arrive anytime after 4pm. The condos are self check in. Park and proceed to the condo and use the access code you were assigned to enter the condo. If you arriving extremely late, please try to be quiet so as not to disturb other guests adjacent and below you.

12. Are there grills at the Resort? Yes, there are BBQ grills located near each of the 3 pools-we do not provide charcoal. You are absolutely not allowed to use any type of grill on the balconies.

Galveston

Condo unit on Seawall Blvd. The front building is undergoing major repairs but other than appearance it did not impact our stay. Three pools on property, one heated, were in use all operating hours. BBQ pits located around the pools required charcoal. Unit we stayed in had been renovated with upgraded finishes. Balcony was huge and shaded during heat of the day. This dog friendly place had a good sized crushed granite dog run. Our hunting dog loved stalking the rabbits on-site. We’d stay here again!

Wonderful stay

We had a very nice time at Donna’s home. Everything was clean, plenty of towels for us to use. The King bed was very comfortable. The kitchen well stocked. Property is on the seawall with the ocean across the street and faces a nice lake close to everything. Large patio. Donna always answered my texts right away and even blessed my son with some toys because it was his birthday. Great experience and would stay there again. Thank you!!!!

Weekend Getaway

Headed to Galveston for the Fly Fishing Festival and needed a place with two rooms two bathrooms and bunks for my kid's. The patio was great, pools were nice although non heated ones were too cold. Easy to get around the island. Comfortable and clean accomodations. Keurig was nice.... It's amazing how many rentals don't have a Keurig! Would stay again. Great info in pre-trip emails, which I actually didn't see until at right when we arrived bc I was looking for emails from VRBO and they're from the rental company. So make sure you're looking for that...

Peaceful Getaway

We came down for spring break. The island was great! We usually go to FL, so it was strange to us that properties are not right on the beach, but there was minimal traffic and nothing was crowded. The condo was far enough back from Seawall Blvd that there was no road noise. It was very quiet and peaceful. The kitchen was stocked with the basics for cooking. I really liked the huge balcony (which was the main reason that I chose this unit). The bed in the master needs replacing. It is very uncomfortable/worn out. They tried using a mattress topper to help, but it really just needs to be replaced. My husband slept on the couch most of the week and I ended up sleeping in one of the hallway bunks because it was bothering our backs so much. Overall, it is a very nice condo, but unless the master bed is replaced, I don’t think we would book there again.
