Great location on the beach. The view was stunning. The area was quiet and not overcrowded but still not too far away from the action. Great place to stay with family.

We specifically chose this unit because we noticed there were two comfy recliners, that was a plus! The king mattress was also comfy, though an additional/optional blanket would have been nice. The unit is appealing and the view is amazing. Very clean. We forgot to bring coffee, so we opted for the main floor complimentary coffee. (This was our only complaint- it was not good, but it’s our fault for not bringing our own. )If you want to rent umbrella and chairs, ask the front desk for info and be sure to reserve before 6pm the day before you need. We love the Galvestonian!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 💙 We love hearing that the recliners were one of the reasons you chose this unit and that they lived up to expectations! 😊 We're also thrilled you found the king mattress comfortable, the condo clean and inviting, and the views amazing. 🌊✨ Those little moments relaxing in a recliner while taking in the Gulf views are what vacation memories are made of! Thank you as well for sharing the helpful tip about reserving beach chairs and umbrellas in advance. We know many guests appreciate that information. As for the coffee, we completely understand—everyone has their favorite blend! ☕😊 We'll gladly take the compliment that you enjoyed everything else enough to call that your only complaint. Thank you again for your kind words and for your continued love of The Galvestonian. We look forward to welcoming you back for another relaxing beachfront getaway soon! 🏖️💙

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The overall condo and grounds were nice. The access to the beach was convenient.

Other than that we enjoyed our stay.
Response from VrboOwner on 23 Oct 2024
Thank you for your 5-star review of the property. We appreciate your business and are so happy you enjoyed your stay. The door difficulty is due to new weather-stripping. As time goes by, it will get better. Thank you for letting us know.
