Charming condo with incredible views, pools & hot tub - steps from beach

Dawn Condominiums - Break of Dawn

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Immerse yourself in the beauty of the Texas Gulf Coast at this Galveston condo, a perfectly located escape with majestic views of the Gulf of Mexico, community amenities that include two swimming pools and a hot tub, and beach access right across the street!

This third-floor condo is located on Seawall Boulevard, offering incredible views of (and direct access to) the azure Gulf of Mexico across the road. Take a sunrise stroll on the beach each morning, treat your kids to afternoons at Moody Gardens and Schlitterbahn Water Park two miles north, and spend your evenings exploring the Strand Historic District and the Postoffice Arts and Entertainment District five miles east.

Step inside to find an open, loft-style living space. Separate sleeping loft with twin beds in addition to the King and sleeper sofa with two-story ceilings, and sliding glass doors that open to the Gulf view balcony. Stock up on groceries at the Walmart Supercenter one block east, use the stainless steel appliances in the kitchen to whip up appetizers and meals, and bring your dessert outside to the balcony for a breathtaking sunset view.

Wake up each morning to work out in the 24-hour fitness center or maybe a run along the seawall for some views. Back at the condo, you can grab your bathing suit from the private washer/dryer, head downstairs to one of the two pristine pools, and soothe your tired muscles in the shared hot tub. If you've booked a deep-sea fishing charter for the day, you'll even find community charcoal grills on the grounds and three cable TVs in the condo for after-dinner movies, or simply relax by streaming your favorite music via the free WiFi.

Come and enjoy the vacation you never knew you needed - book your stay at this Galveston condo today!

It’s older than you think
From the looks of the pictures , you’d be happy to stay here. Unfortunately, as soon as you walk in - it smells like a camp. Smells old and has an odor. But I thought I could get past that. The bathroom smelled like a bathroom - not fresh and clean . Smelled like urine . As our stay continues , we continue to be disappointed. There was no linens for the pull out sofa. The amount of stains on the sofa bed was aweful. When I asked for linens , they declined. Most of the dishes were not clean.they did not provide adequate cooking supplies that a normal condo would. The hot water heater is extremely small.do not expect to take a bath in a warm tub as the hot water runs out - also there is no stopper the tub for the water. The icing on the cake for my family , the a/c would kick off and turn to 74 in the middleOf the night. We would wake up sweating . When I message the host they told me sorry they do that to control energy . I have never heard of this - never paid for a residence and they control the ac . I understand that some residents have pest and insects- but this room has roaches . So overall I wouldn’t recommend or stay here again

Nice area, condo could use some work , but had everything we needed. Area is clean and safe. Busy road out front but near a stoplight for easy crossing. Pool advertised as heated, but both pools were cold so not sure which was supposed to be heated

Nice place with work in progress
We arrived around midnight and had trouble getting in like previous reviews stated. Passcode didn’t work. Customer service answered our phone call right away but attempt at multiple passcode changes didn’t help. Eventually we had to get the key out of the lock box and it was our only key for the duration of our stay. Great location, apartment is nice but in need of repairs. Repair and paint materials were found in the closet, so we can say that it’s work in progress.

Bad experience
Ac was not working when we arrived, things happen, I get that. We were given instructions for a possible reset, which we tried unsuccessfully. We were also told it was our fault for arriving after 3pm which is insane since earliest check in was 4pm. It just went downhill from there. Would not recommend, it was nothing like the photos. Furnished completely differently and not in a positive way. I've never given a poor review but this experience was beyond bad.

Check in process was horrible! Clerk at desk was rude. However, the location to the beach was great. The pool area was awesome-nice to have 2 pools to chose from. The rooms were nice but did find a few cockroaches on the balcony. Overall, we’re satisfied and would stay there again.

A nice weekend!
The condo was very nice and in a great location. Be ready to tone your leg muscles with it being on the third floor!! We did have some trouble getting into the condo, the code did not work even after contacting the property manager and getting a second code. We ended up having to use the lock box key. The condo was not cleaned when we finally got in but we were able to contact customer support and they sent out the cleaning team immediately. They did a fabulous job! We were also refunded the cleaning fee. A minor repair needs to be done to the toilet that runs constantly. Other than that, we would stay there again!!

GREAT PLACE BUT HORRIBLE CHECK IN EXPERIENCE
THE CONDO WAS GREAT, HAD A BEAUTIFUL VIEW AND HAD EVERYTHING WE NEEDED EXCEPT ENOUGH TOILET PAPER. NO BIG DEAL WE JUST GRABBED MORE THE DAY AFTER CHECKING IN. THE CHECK IN WAS AWFUL WE ARRIVED LATER THAN WE HAD HOPED SO WE HAD FUSSY KIDS AND AN EXHAUSTED 1 YEAR OLD FROM THE 4 HOUR CAR RIDE. WHEN WE GOT TO THE DOOR OUR DOOR CODE DID NOT WORK. AFTER SEVERAL TRIPS BACK TO THE OFFICE (WE WERE ON THE THIRD FLOOR WITH NO ELEVATOR) THE PROPERTY MANAGER CAME UP TO CONFIRM WE COULDN'T GET IN. HE FINALLY REACHED THE OWNER BY PHONE AND HAD THEM CALL VACASA WHO THEN CALLED US BUT IT ALL TOOK AN HOUR AND A HALF. BY THE TIME WE GOT IN OUR ROOM IT WAS ALMOST 10 P.M. IT DEFINITELY TOOK AWAY FROM THE EXCITEMENT OF ARRIVING.

Adequate
Unit was adequate but could use some updating. Although we got our “codes” in advance, the code to enter the condo didn’t work – took a phone call and four more code tries to get in. AC great, TVs and appliances worked. Excellent view from balcony. Lots of dishes, but very limited flatware. No can opener, hot pads, laundry supplies or closet hangers. Lots of stairs and soft mattress. Couch was “tired” and uncomfortable. We have stayed many times in other units at the Dawn. This Condo was less expensive – helping to make up for the shortcomings.

Disgusting!!!
Don't give this owner any of your money. This unit was disgusting. Mold and other things on the shower curtain, mold and rust on the air vents, cracked and loose tile on the floor just to name a few things.... We have stayed at The Dawn Condos several times and love the property. Just don't stay in this unit!!!

Unit needs some love
View was terrific. Unit needs work. Kitchen is limited with no can opener, no hot pads, limited silverware, no blender lid, scummy shower curtain liner, poor lighting throughout. Bed terribly soft. Check in process was not good. Couldn't get in. Carpets need cleaning. Area is fun to explore. Clients should know that they need to provide all their own household essentials like toilet paper, trash bags and dishwasher tabs, etc.

It was ok
It took us 1 hour to get into the property because the codes they sent us did not work. After an hour of waiting outside we finally got a code that worked. When we walked in the floors were sticky and just not clean looking. For what I paid for just wasn’t it in my opinion.

All-around great experience.
Wonderful! Great views. Easy access to beach as well as beautiful and fun pools & hot tub. I had a slight problem while checking in with my key code not working, but help came very quickly and everyone was super friendly. I especially liked the location because it’s quick drives to many attractions, but when it’s time to sleep it’s less noisy than a few blocks down where more action is taken place. My children had a great time with all the stairs, whether or not that’s a pro or con is up for a light debate.

The location is perfect! place is big, view is incredible, but the master bed had bedbugs and the carpet in the room was stained, gross and dirty as can be, we also had some issues when we took the sofabed out and the sheets were stained and looked horrible even though they seem clean. if they take care of these things this place could be a great place to stay
