Galveston Get-Away

Host answered questions I had before making reservations. Check-in was easy, property was clean with all necessary items available. Location was good for us...near the pool, across the street from the beach, and close to many restaurants and markets. Overall, this is a great place to stay for anyone wanting to visit Galveston.

We enjoyed out stay. The unit was very clean, and it provided everything that we needed. The pool was just a few steps away. The pool was nicely maintained. The person in the office was very friendly. Our 4 other adult quests also enjoyed themselves.

It’s hard to beat a gated condo across the street from the beach, with a super Walmart within walking distance. We enjoyed the gulf, the pool, Jimmys Pier, Gaidos and Landry’s all a close drive. Larry was an excellent host, because I never needed to contact him. Everything was easy-peasy.

Coffee at the Dawn

The location was perfect. I especially loved the walk to the beach through the complex. The landscape tidy and pleasing to the senses. The condo is a corner unit on the first level just steps from the pool. Initially the trip was going to be 6 adults, our friends had a hiccup and I invited my neice and her family. All together we were 4adults, 2 14yr olds, 6,4,and a two year old. With two king beds and the pullout couch we slept comfy. The unit is prepped with everything you need for a day at the beach including a few Beach towels, chairs and a beach blanket. I especially LOVED the backup Mr Coffee pot! I am not a fan of the kurig. I am from Louisiana where you cand stand a spoon in your coffee!! Coffee at the Dawn on the back porch listening to the early morning waves, was just the summer magic I needed! Thank you Mark, for sharing your space!

beautiful property

the property was very nice, the only problem we had was that the pool area is right outside the master bedroom and they have extremely bright spotlights on all night that make it seem like daytime in the bedroom. we hung towels on the window to darken the room and it was fine. other than that, we had a wonderful time.

Beautiful Condo

We had a blast staying at this condo! The rooms are beautiful and the community is one of the more attractive ones I've seen in Galveston. This unit is right by the pool! There was plenty to do in the area and we especially enjoyed all the extras provided in the condo! The beach is within walking distance!
