A perfect short weekend
The condo was perfect in location and amenities. Beach access was a quick walk across the road. Next door was a Walmart and a corner gas station so everything was within walking distance. Everyone we dealt with was very nice and helpful.

We had a great time! The sliding glass door needs attention. You have to lift and pull to get it open. Other than that nice place. Wish you had an elevator! haha

Almost perfect
This condo is spacious, honestly had everything we needed and then some. The picture from the balcony doesn’t do this place justice, you can see the beach really well. The only issue is the sliding glass door. My 14 year old and my mom could not even open the door which meant if they wanted to go on balcony and we weren’t there or awake yet they had to wait. Hopefully this get fixed since it’s been mentioned before but other than that we loved this condo!

Excellent location, easy beach access, two lovely pools on site.
We enjoyed our stay, no complaints on the condo though we spent minimal time there. Both rooms had extremely soft sheets and comfortable mattresses. The only hiccup was that the sliding door to the patio needs repair, it’s very difficult to get open.

We were charged a cleaning fee as part of our room charge. Arrived to find a “tip jar” for cleaning staff & notes pinned to the walls, throughout the condo with instructions on how to clean up after ourselves. We also received visitors prior to our check out time, who were the next guests staying in the condo. They were told they could check in early. What??? What a cluster of confusion that turned out to be.

This property was PERFECT for our family of 5 with 3 teen boys. It was spotlessly clean, had a stocked kitchen that lacked for nothing (table settings for four and a few chipped plates, so we used paper plates), a working ice maker that makes plenty of ice for 5 large water bottles, plenty of beach towels, enough bedding and tons of space. Easily walkable and extremely close to the beach and a crosswalk right as you leave the gate next to the building. It has been beautifully furnished and it's really lovely. I'm already planning to book again for next summer!

Perfect location and property!
We enjoyed our stay at this condo. It was equipped with everything you need, has a beautiful view of the pool and ocean, the property itself is lovely, and we had no issues with check-in. The pictures don’t do it justice. It is more spacious that the pictures portray. We look forward to staying again!

Nice unit, family friendly, convenient location
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Everything was exactly as listed. Walmart is just across the street so that was very convenient. We did have my parents with us who are in their 70's and the stairs were a bit of a challenge for them, but that was noted in the property description so we were aware ahead of time. Although we did not use the pool, the pool area is very nice and there is a shower to rinse off when you come in from the beach. We appreciated the extra beach towels and boogie board available to use, as well as shampoo/body wash in the showers. One suggestion (and this is because I'm a coffee snob) is to include a Keurig with the kitchen appliances. There is a regular coffee pot, but I actually brought my own Keurig. I did see comments in the guest book about several guests leaving the coffee pot on for extended periods, and that would help with that issue. Nothing fancy, just might be a nice amenity. Overall, this is a great place to stay and I highly recommend!

Great Location for great price!
Overall our stay at this condo was wonderful. My only complaint is that the check-in/check-out documents need to be updated. They contradict each other (check-in says you need to pay for a parking pass and it's $25 in the book, $35 in the instructions you get via email; check-out says if you do not return the "complimentary parking pass" you'll be fined $25). This worried us so we left all the items we received from the front desk on the counter. Also, the book shows that the pool closes at 10PM, but it actually closes at 11PM. Other then these complications, the condo, the area, and the staff were amazing. Very clean and well kept Condominium and very safe (gated all the way around). The condo was very clean and comfortable as well. And you're right next to a stoplight crosswalk (very important in Galveston) so the beach is literally seconds from you. Wonderful view from the balcony and the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee!

As with most VRBO’s renting was easy. Had a nice phone call with Randy the owner after arriving( nice guy). Location was great with easy access to everything. The condo’s looked fun but with the bad weather we did not get to experience all that the area had to offer and we are sorry about that.

Good place
Check in is easy, the condo is nice overall. We gave it 4 stars because there was some sort of hiccup with the owner contacting the house keeper before our arrival. However, the owners were quick to have the housekeeper show up immediately. Even though there was WiFi info on the wall at the condo, we couldn’t find the network to join. Not sure what was going on there. The pools are nice and location of condo is close to all the touristy stuff of Seawall Blvd. I’d consider staying there again.
