Short Getaway
This was a good location for two people, as it is very small. The photos are misleading about the size. Yes, there are bunks and a fold out sofa, but the space is probably less than 600 sq ft. There are plenty of towels and beach toys. The kitchen is great, and the coffee pods were a nice touch. The bathroom needs a facelift. The shower tile grout was very dirty, and there was mold and peeling paint on the ceiling around the A/C vent in the bathroom. The bed is comfortable, with lots of pillows. The Master bedroom closet has hooks on the wall and a short rack for hanging clothes. Again, very small. The only window in the condo (master bedroom) has broken locks and opens onto the hallway, where the gate to this unit doesn't close properly. The bistro table and chairs pictured in the listing were not there. Instead, there were four plastic chairs, and a plastic folding table for our morning coffee. It is a good location, near the beach and restaurants, and was very quiet. It fit our spending budget for a two-night stay.

Above expectations, highly recommend.
As described and then some. Better than the pics. Tastefully decorated. Walking gate access and traffic light with crosswalk for beach/ocean access. Owner provides pool accessories stored on balcony. Balcony with chairs and table offers pool and ocean view. For your beach time, there is a wagon, cooler bag, chairs, etc in bedroom closet for your use. Short drive for a more private beach experience without traffic noise. Easy access tiled shower and plenty of towels available. Garage parking pass and pool access wrist band issued at office upon check in after $35 fee paid. Easy Keypad entry. Friendly and helpful neighbors in this gated community. Grocery stores and restaurants close by. Beautiful pool area, well maintained grounds. There are 2 pools and a jacuzzi area. If you a require elevator, call ahead and make sure they are working. Hurricane damage repairs were underway during our August visit and sadly all 3 elevators giving access to this unit were temporarily unavailable for this 3rd floor unit. Owner responds immediately to any issues. We have already booked our next visit.

The condo was very nice and clean. The beach was right across the street. That was a plus for us, especially with a four year old. I do wish the elevators were working those stairs were pretty scary to the kids. Over all I would definitely recommend this place.

Kathy is an amazing host! She has all of the details covered making a stay at the beach a perfect experience, even if there is a chance of rain in the forecast! She has all things beach, including chairs, a wagon, and towels! Our family enjoyed our nights on the patio playing Uno to wrap up the day. Thank you Kathy for being a perfect host!

Short stay before cruise
Awesome location to see Galveston for a couple days before heading out on our cruise. Brought our electric bikes and it was so easy to get around. Even rode over to the Strand. Easy ride, bike paths most of the way. Condo was perfect and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Parking was under the units, fenced and had security patrols. We felt very safe and secure with our e-bikes being left out (locked up in the bed of the truck). Beautiful view from the room and really enjoyed our evenings on the deck. Easy check in and out. Host was great at communicating. We will be back again!!

The unit was small but very nice and clean. Communication with Kathy was very good. Unfortunately on our arrival at the unit we were not able to access the unit. We told Kathy we would be arriving after the office closed. She said the security person would let us in. That person was nowhere to be found. Called the phone number for security with no response. Kathy was away on a cruise and her covering person did not answer her phone either. We had to check into a nearby hotel. Kathy did refund our night and was very apologetic. I think had she been around it would not have been a problem.

Winter Beach trip
Beautiful condo with a nice beach view from the balcony. Everything worked well and is well maintained. It was easy to cross the street and take a walk down the beach from this location. We were able to walk down to the Rainforest Cafe which has a cute boat ride for anyone with young children. Would defiantly stay here again, the owner is great and checking in to the Victorian was very easy.

Great location, and very very clean
We had a great 4 day stay in Galveston- the condo was perfect for us- 2 adults and 2 kids so the built in bunk beds area was very helpful. The resort had everything we needed and the kids loved the heated outdoor pools and hot tub. The location is amazing and the condo was the cleanest rental I have ever had.

Clean condo great location
The condo was so clean! And we were so surprised and thankful to find water and coffee pods! We flew in from out of state and were limited on what we could bring. When we went to the store we found ALL the bottled water was gone from the shelves! So we were so thankful we had some to hold us over until the next day. Kathy was very accommodating even trying to help us get an app on the TV for watching playoffs. She is very responsive and wonderful to work with. The location is perfect too and had the weather been warmer we probably would have enjoyed the heated pool and beach more. I would recommend this condo to anyone!
