It was Fine
Overall, the trip and stay was fine. The biggest issue is since everything is through a rental company, there is not direct communication with anyone. I had sent messages via the app and never got a response. The property itself is at an amazing location. The parking garage is super confusing to find the exit. The room was ok. Paint is starting to chip, the plunger was broke and the toilet took a few flushes. With Tyne TV on a wire rack in the master, it just seemed incomplete or rushed with furnishings. Not that I’ve learned the ropes (how to get out of the garage, what email address to communicate with), I would stay again for the location. Pools were nice too but other guests would occasionally play their own inappropriate music so we decided the beach was the best place for our family.

Good for the money
Pros: It was ok for the price we paid. Good location and amenities. It was very close to the beach. Cons: the toilet didnt flush all the way. The property manager said they would send a plumber but he never came so we had to put toilet paper in the trash which is disgusting. Only one light in the bedroom worked and the mattress was horrible. Other than that we had fun and thats all that matters.

Wonderful location! Located right across from the Gulf, cross walks, restaurants, fast food, pizza, and Walmart. Pools were nice, chairs and loungers nice. The water could’ve been cooler, water temp was more like bath water. Bed was comfortable, bunk beds were nice for smaller kids and the futon was comfortable as a bed as well.

Loved the Pickled Pelican!
I really enjoyed my stay at the Pickled Pelican! Beautiful views and artistic decor! The only problem was the internet access, we had no internet for our entire stay! Across the street on the beach, I had access. Otherwise great time!

Mother’s Day get away
My 80 yo mother, myself and my two girls stayed for two nights for a Galveston get away. We loved the room we had! Great area, easy to get in and out of, friendly staff, we felt very safe and secure! The room was decorated so cute! Everything we needed was right there, most already in house but what Walmart next door for quick stop! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Was not smoke free
Cons: the one bedroom smelled so bad of cigarettes smoke I could not sleep in there. It took 3 days for coastal wave to email be back about it. Their fix was to spray Febreze, All the bedding and pillows smelled of smoke. If you don’t mind sleeping in a room that’s been heavenly smoked in then this is your place. Pros. Good location, college room vibees, at least they have lots of sleeping options other than the bed room and Great balcony. The pool is nice too. Close walk to the beach. I was not offered any time of refund for not being able to use the bedroom due to the smoke smell.

Pickled Pelican Fun
The room was cute and cozy, had just enough space, the room looked right over the pool area which is actually a really nice view of the palm trees. You can also see the beach from the patio! Over all great stay. Everything was nice and clean.

This property hit all the necessary points that we needed for our vacation. The condo was homey and clean and it good condition. We enjoyed having two fridges for our groceries and drinks. We got to cook some meals on the stovetop which was convenient. It was great that both of the pools were heated, the weather was rainy but we still managed to have fun. The place is quiet and everyone is respectful. All of the outdoor areas are maintained and clean.

Right next to the beach
We loved being right next to the beach and the grocery store. The patio was a huge plus for extra space for my boys. It was ok clean: pretty dusty and the corners of the floors were not swept. But otherwise not bad.

Great stay. Great view.
Great stay! The pickled Pelican is a great location! View of the ocean and the pool from your balcony. Two nice sized pool and clean facility. Beds are comfortable. Very little storage for food and the fridge didn't get very cold. We made due with coolers and the table space. It was slightly smaller than I thought it would be but We fit comfortably with 6. Read the emails the owner is very informational on what you will need to bring and what is provided. Great locations close to everything on the sea wall. East walk to the beach.
