Great location

We loved the location. Bummed the balcony wasn’t open for use. The bedroom has a mold smell when we arrived and never went away. Unsure the source

Summer Getaway

Property is a little aged, sleeping was tight for older kids, but the location was great! The toilet flapper needs to be replaced, and the toilet frequently ran after flushings, but not a big deal.

Adorable Condo

The condo itself is adorable. It is small but we knew that going in. The bed in the master is beautiful & extremely comfortable (the large frame makes maneuvering in the room a bit challenging though). The bathroom does hold a bit of moisture but we ran our fan in there all day while we were out & that helped a lot. Our kids loved the heated pool & would love to check out the resort pool during warmer weather. Overall it was a beautiful stay & would definitely stay in the unit again (w/o the kids lol

beaches closed, a real bummer

Despite that the property was great and location was great. The folks who rented to us could not help with COVID situation and yet gave a discount anyway. A lot of plans cut into and yet we had good time anyway. I would recommend.

Such a cute getaway

All around very nice, easy to access, beach just right across the street. Very quite, however I did go right after Mardi Gras and before spring break. Very nice grounds. Enjoyed walking around the pools and spa. I will most definitely be back.

Our stay at Galveston

Good location to visit the sites. Unfortunately, the navel park with the submarine and destroyer escort plus the battleship Texas up north location were all closed for repairs. The seafood was good though and we enjoyed ourselves.

We had a wonderful time at this adorable, well-decorated condo. It had everything we needed, except for the wi-fi wasn’t working. However one of the owners was very helpful and made every effort to resolve the matter. We would love to come back next year!

There was absolutely nothing wrong with my stay here. Other than the air conditioning is not working upon arrival however I contacted the owner and she was very quick to get someone out there to get it fixed and cool down in a very timely manner and I was very appreciative of that. I would definitely stay here again

Enjoyed our stay

We enjoyed our stay! Property is a little past the main seawall boulevard strip being out past 89th St. We did not mind it at all. Place was nice, had a nice pool, accepted our pets, easy access to Ubers so we can get any other places in the strand or along the sea wall and not have to drive😎 I also went fishing one morning over in Offats Bayou which is close by. I went to San Luis Pass the second day but the wind was bad. Got some nice pictures though. We enjoyed our visit and would stay there again!

Three Day Stay Review

Very nice condo. We enjoyed our stay. The condo is located across a major roadway from the ocean, so getting to the beach was difficult, except by car. But we managed and had a great time. The general area is attractive and not congested as it is closer to Galveston.

Pet Friendly Condo

The building was older but the condo was a nice, smaller condo. We were looking for a pet friendly property near the beach. It was nice to be able to sit out on the balcony with our dogs. It was a nice experience and would consider it again in the future.

Beautiful, quaint condo for Galveston Island fun!

My husband and I recently celebrated our one year wedding anniversary while spending a one week stay in this cute little condo. I'll start with the negatives (very few) and end with the many positives! NEGATIVES This condo is located in one of the more established resorts on the island and doesn't look great from the outside. You can tell the building is much older than some of the surrounding resorts. All of the condos in the resort are privately owned and you can tell that some of the residents live here full time. We also experienced the smell of marijuana in the elevator more than once and they were a few people that were a little "sketchy." POSITIVES The inside of this condo is ADORABLE. You can tell they've recently updated and it shows! We loved the decor and the beach-themed accents throughout. The master bedroom has a king-sized bed which takes up the majority of the room, but we didn't mind because my husband and I had the hardest time finding a condo with a king-sized bed (he's over 6'2" and I'm 5'9", so queen-sized beds are out!). The bathroom is very nice and the shower has brand new tile. The bunk bed is right by the front door, but super cute and a good use of space. The kitchen is well equipped with cooking utensils, refrigerator, pantry, oven, and stove top. We also loved sitting on the balcony where you can see the ocean. It also looks out onto the beautiful grassy area where both pools are located (access is free and included with your stay). And this condo is DOG FRIENDLY. We brought both of our big dogs with us and they enjoyed it just as much as we did. The resort even has a potty area for the dogs. We also found a road right next to the resort that leads to a little go-cart shop where we walked our dogs most days. We did encounter a few issues with the condo (very minor), but when I informed one of the owners, she was very quick to thank me for my feedback and assured me they would be taken care of. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!!

The condo is clean, decorated in cute beach themed decor, and beds are comfy. Plenty of kitchen cookware and the grocery store is 5 min away. Nice beach view from balcony.

Mini Family Vacation

We headed to Galveston for a mini - vacation over Easter. This condo was perfect for our family! They are doing construction at the back of the resort but the main pool area is beautiful. The condo is very cutely decorated. It is located at the western end of the sea wall so we were away from all the craziness of the Pleasure Pier area! It only takes a few minutes to get to both that area and the Strand so it was the perfect location. The condos are very quiet and I felt safe with my family. They are very responsive. We needed an iron and they provided one very quickly. I highly recommend this condo!
