About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Ring in New Year at the beach! Killer kitchen, OMG Gulf, bay views. Sleeps 2-4.

Celebrate 2025 at our special corner of Galveston --a terrific corner condo that overlooks both the Gulf and the Galveston skyline. It's an end unit that goes from front-to-back of the building. Since the condo is right on the beach, you'll have sensational views!

Our condo is a great get-away spot on quiet East Beach, perhaps the best beach in Galveston. Not on the busy Seawall, this condo is just five minutes away from there or The Strand, whenever you're ready for restaurants and shopping!

From our eighth-floor location, you can watch the sun rise from the living room balcony and view sunsets from the bedroom balcony. Or walk outdoors and right onto the beach, where you can stroll for miles. Or just sit and bask in the sun. There's no Seawall Blvd. to navigate.

The condo sleeps four comfortably, two in the roomy bedroom featuring a king, and two on the sleeper sofa in the living room. A full bath with shower (no tub) accommodates our guests.

The fully equipped kitchen is recently remodeled. It includes everything you'll need to whip up a boiled shrimp dinner or a pancake breakfast. There's a microwave, two coffeemakers, electric range, fridge, and for easy clean-up, a dishwasher. (It's nicer than our kitchen at home!)

We've installed password-protected wireless internet access, so you can easily and securely stay in touch while away. Wifi is also available in the lobby downstairs.

Elevators whisk you to our eighth-floor location. Downstairs are a laundry, a pool for a refreshing dip, and sports courts for basketball, tennis and pickleball.

We have beach chairs in the condo for guest use.

The complex also has an EV charger on-site.

Come visit soon!

PS: More people coming to the beach? We have a two-bedroom condo that will
sleep six in this same building, www.vrbo.com/251377

Love this place
We stayed here for a week. The condo was perfect. It was fully stocked with supplies for the length of our stay. The kitchen is as advertised! The location is great. It’s away from the bustle of the Seawall but not so far that you’re missing anything. We loved it here and we’ll definitely be back!

Galveston Getaway
I have stayed at this property several times. I had a friend visiting from out of state who wanted to spend some time in Galveston. Luckily, the condo was available for our dates. We enjoyed the quietness of the east end, watched a cruise ship sail out, as well as mutiple tankers come in. I love that there are balconies facing both directions, as well as windows along the east wall. The checkin is so quick and smooth, with friendly staff. The location is great, the condo is comfortable with everything you need. I can't wait to return in the spring!

Beautiful Beach Area Condo
The condo was comfortable and well equipped. It was a perfect size for two people. We were at events much of the time so didn't get to look through the telescope, but it was great it was there! This was our first time to East Beach, and we love it! Thanks again!

Annual Girls Trip
This is our 2nd stay here, and it just feels like home already. The views from 3 sides are wonderful, as we enjoy watching the cruise and cargo ships sailing in and out. This unit is very comfortable and nicely furnished. The east end is quiet without traffic, but convenient for enjoying all that Galveston offers. There was an issue due to a bad storm the night before our check-in, which was handled immediately by the owner, who is incredibly responsive. The guys at the check-in desk are always so friendly, and gave us a great restaurant recommendation (BLVD, on the seawall at 28th). This has become an annual trip, and we look forward to our stay next year!

Excellent!
This was our first time staying at this property and we loved it. The location was fabulous. It's right on the beach so you can enjoy the waves without the traffic noise of seawall blvd. There are two balconies - one in front and one in back - which was awesome. The condo was very well stocked, which was a plus. The staff was very nice and always happy to see us. Communication with the owner was excellent. She was very prompt in her responses to us which was appreciated. I would highly recommend this place and we are looking forward to booking our next visit.
