Beach Therapy at Maravilla by My Galveston Getaway
You deserve a little Beach Therapy and you've found it in this serene, 2 bedroom, 2 full bath condo at the Maravilla. Top floor! Amazing views of the gulf, the nearby lagoon where countless species of birds take a dip, and overlooking one of the three (the heated in off-season) pools.
No stone has been unturned when planning this great escape - which welcomes up to 8 guests. A king bed in the master bedroom, queen in the second bedroom, full sized convertible sofa in the living room and true twin bunks in the hallway alcove provide a variety of sleeping spaces for the entire family - or for two couples with little ones to share.
Two full baths give you plenty of space to get ready for a night on the town or to shower after a long day at the beach (though we do ask that you rinse off at the pool shower before coming up to the condo).
The kitchen has EVERYTHING that you could need whether you’re going to make popcorn and snuggle to watch movies on the couch, or make your gourmet family delicacies while on vacation.
There's no better therapy than beach therapy - and you've found it here at the Maravilla.
My Galveston Getaway provides starter supplies of toiletries, paper products, dish cleaning options and coffee to get our guests started and situated before making their shopping lists and determining which shopping option works best for their group. These supplies are not intended to last your entire group the duration of your stay - but to get started!
We also provide one bath towel, hand towel and wash cloth for each guest that the unit sleeps, along with 2 dish towels. Should you wish to have additional housekeeping services during your stay or to have linen swaps during your stay, these can be arranged with advance notice upon request at an additional cost.
There is currently construction going on in one building of the complex. This does not affect the condo you are reserving from us or any of the amities of the complex.
Galveston is a barrier island in Texas located on the Gulf of Mexico. From time to time we have unexpected rain, thunderstorms, and sometimes we do have tropical storms and hurricanes. From time to time there may be brief interruptions in electricity and WiFi services due to weather. You should consider purchasing trip interruption or cancelation protection through the platforms or another source. We are unable to guarantee sunny days, mosquito free nights and perfect weather, nor do we refund for these possibilities. We issue refunds in the event of mandatory evacuations issued by a governmental agency, or for the property being unavailable due to damages and extended power outages. Trip cancelation and interruption coverage is available through most booking platforms as well as through private vendors found on the world wide web should you wish to purchase such a policy.
After making your reservation you will receive a link to complete our renters agreement. The only information we request differently than the booking platforms (VRBO/AirBnB) is your personal email address, the names and ages of each person who will be in the property during your stay, and your driver’s license information as well as an emergency contact should we need to reach someone on your behalf. Thank you for completing this in a timely manner so that we may send you the check-in instructions for the property you have reserved.
For all reservations made directly through our website and through VRBO, there is a $300 security deposit “hold” required. You certainly can purchase trip cancellation/interruption coverage through those platforms as well if you so desire, this is a damage “deposit” hold. This is released once our housekeepers advise that the property has been left in the condition received with no damages occurring during your stay. This is not a charge, but a hold on the credit card on file with which the reservation is made. Should there be damages and they exceed $300 to repair or replace, you will be notified and asked to make arrangements to compensate for those items.

We loved stay. It was nice and clean, had a very, very nice view. The only thing is that we thought there was a washer and dryer in it and we didn’t realize till we got there that the washer and dryer was shared with other people in the building wasn’t bad we misread or misunderstood the listing. We loved pool. It was nice that it was heated because it was still a little chilly in Galveston.

Wow we were thrilled to read your great review and we look forward to hosting you again! (and again and again - you were super awesome guests!) Sorry about that washer dryer situation -there are 6 pay per use laundry facilities at the complex - each with 2 washers and dryers, and one is right around the corner from this unit.
Safe travels wherever you go next, and Come Stay With Us again soon!

Everyone was so friendly and it was definitely pet friendly. Was able to walk across the street to the ocean which was very convenient! The resort pool was amazing and my youngest had a blast! It was perfect for my family.

Had a great stay. This unite has an amazing view! Remodeled pool is the best we’ve seen in Galveston. Thank you!
This was a great property to stay at and everything was in place as advertised. Easy access to the beach, pools were family friendly and having access to washers and dryers was huge. We would definitely stay here again.
Our family enjoyed staying here. Instructions are clear and place was just as described. Our beach getaway was perfect. We are already planning on when to come back.
From reservation to checkout, this was a very good experience. Loved the location on the seawall. Views of the gulf, the large pond next door and the pool. Definitely would stay here again!
Multiple visits to the Maravilla Condos and always happy. The location is perfect as it's directly across the street from the beach. The heated pool is our favorite. The grounds are clean and spacious, and the condos have a lot packed into their space. The condo was clean and well equipped. The office staff for parking passes and pool bands are friendly and helpful. No complaints.
Really enjoyed staying at Beach Therapy. Nice location, the heated pool and hot tub were nice. Room was as expected. Loved the view. Only complaint I would have is there were only 2 spoons...

Condo was nice and spacious for our group. Good view too from the rooms and balcony, owner should add a photo of the view as it was not in the ad we saw. Pleasantly surprised by the view of the lagoon and gulf.
New pillows would be nice. But great stay.

Just ok
Condo was clean. Location is in back of the complex. Complex is in need of sprucing up. Definitely shows its age. Queen bed was horribly uncomfortable as was bedding. Rail on balcony was loose and made us uneasy about our children being near it.The condo is fine if you don’t intend to spend much time in it. Nothing fancy. Check-in and dealing with management was easy.Be aware there are additional complex amenity fees that include parking as well.
Our stay was wonderful thanks to the wonderful management at My Galveston Getaways. We had a hickup due to fire alarm in the complex being pulled and called management and they moved us to a different location so we could get some sleep. They personally came out the next morning too make sure everything was under control and personally called us to apologize, even though it wasn't their fault at all. We'll definitely be booking through My Galveston Getaways next time. The view from the balcony was beautiful, overlooking a pond and the Gulf. The room was just as pictured and the beds were comfortable. We'll definitely be back!

LOVE this condo. We’ve stayed in several others in the same building. The ONLY two complaints i have - tile vac didnt get sand off tile well and the SHEETS…. So so itchy on every bed. I almost went and bought new at walmart they were so scratchy and worn. Please replace 🥰 other than that - amazing views, ckean property. AC is BUMPIN and we loved our stay

We are so happy you enjo9yed your stay and we look forward to having you Come Stay With Us again soon - at Beach Therapy or any of the properties we manage. We're so sorry we didn't know that the sheets were giving you any discomfort - we would have brought fresh ones by (be assured they are laundered and changed between every guest)! We do replace linens regularly - and rotate them, but sometimes it's just time to get rid of some, as well. We literally spend close to$10,000/year on linens so we surely could have brought some you were comfortable with. Again - super sorry about that and look forward to having you again!
We had some issues with the property ie: toilets in both bathrooms not working well, power was out in 2nd bedroom and bunkbed area. The elevator stopped working on the dirst day, and we received 2 parking violation tickets that were not valid. We were able to EASILY get in touch with the condo management, no complaints there. We would stay again for a short trip.

We hope you had a great stay! We look forward to having you Come Stay With Us again soon!
The Condo was really nice. Just perfect for 3 adults and 1 child- and could easily fit a few more kiddos with the bunk beds.
Everything was super clean. Nothing over the top but we did find a toaster, cups and bowls. I love that the fridge has an ice maker (minimal ice for a weekend but for a longer stay would’ve made plenty).
Check in was easy. The condo has a great view and is right off the elevator and stairs. The property is nice - dog friendly and I love that it had a dog wash station where I could soap up and rinse my pup. Just bring mosquito spray. They started attacking at night- literally.

This was a great condo, very clean looks just like the pictures, its a little smaller then anticipated. But worked out for our big family. We weren't the biggest fans of the area to be honest, but the condo and pool here was amazing! Just bring your own pool/beach towels. Our past condo stays have had those so I didn't pack any and got bit in the butt by it. I should have looked harder to see if that was mentioned in the info for the condo, I'm not sure if it was or not, but this can be your heads up. I would highly recommend this condo if you know you like this area.

Yes - we used to provide beach/pool towels - it was an extremely expensive experiment for us as we had custom ones made for our properties and unfortunately folks took them home as souvenirs of their trip and we had to discontinue the practice as a result.

Nice with issues
Marivilla complex is under construction, so the first look is not so pleasant. However, our condo Beach Therapy was ok. Nice view, wonderful balcony and nice kitchen.
Things that need the owner’s attention:
Master shower: someone is going to get hurt by falling unless the shower door situation is remedied.
Second bedroom: Needs a new mattress! Our family ended up sleeping in the bunks in the hallway due to the condition of the mattress.
Numerous lights either did not work or needed new light bulbs (in the living room and hallway)
Not sure how hot water tanks work in the complex, but we did not have hot water the last day there.
Quirky thing about the elevator we had to use to get to our condo on the 3rd floor. It will go to the 3rd floor if someone is in it, but if you want to go down you have to walk to the second floor and then bring it up to the 3rd floor.
We loved our stay at this property!!! There was plenty of space for us, our dog and our 4 kids ages 17, 15, 11, 7. Things we especially loved:
Great use of space in the condo - 2 full bathrooms was a huge plus!
Ocean views that we enjoyed from the spacious patio!
Well appointed kitchen…minus a can opener, but we bought one and left it for future renters.
Great pool area - we enjoyed grilling hotdogs by the pool one evening.
Pet friendly!
Great location!
Things to be aware of:
The condo itself and the pool area was great, but the complex is undergoing some repairs so you see scaffolding when you first turn in.
Parking is $10 per car, per day, but it is a nice, covered parking garage.
This unit is on the 3rd floor. The elevators closest to the unit kept going out. There was another elevator further away, but it stayed fairly busy due to the other one not working.
The refrigerator in this unit had a terrible fishy smell. I think owners are aware, because there was baking soda inside, but it was pretty bad. We opened the fridge as little as possible…this was our only true complaint…I’d advise you to bring bleach :)
Overall, we loved our stay at Beach Therapy Maravilla, and would definitely stay here again!
We enjoyed our time! Perfectly located between the mainland and Jamaica Beach (where we spent most of our time). The full kitchen was great for breakfast and lunch prep and the local dining options were awesome (and I’m gluten free - try BLVD if you are, too).
Things that were out of the owners control that decreased the experience: the elevator frequently was inoperable and the dial codes for the pool rarely worked (front office was notified) and pet owners wouldn’t pick up their pet waste.
I have young children and they enjoyed the bunks. The smart TV’s were very convenient.
Overall, a very comfortable place that provided a nice launch pad for our activities. When/if we head back to Galveston we will absolutely look to see if this spot is available.
Thanks for being great hosts!
