We have yet to stay at a condo in the Galvestonian that we didn't like. This place was no exception. Clean, beautiful and very comfortable for our family. The spare room was perfect for our two younger kids and mother in law. The hidden trundle bed was perfect.

My wife and I have stayed at the Galvestonian many times over the years. It's an excellent property. The only things we noticed this time was the lack of umbrellas by the pool and that some of the straps on the pool chairs need to be replaced. Otherwise, everything else was very fine.

Great place. Clean. Nice sized pool. They offer shopping carts and luggage carts as well as beach carts. Our room was great and the view was amazing. This seemed like a private beach so no crowds and prime water view without crossing the street. I’d love to own one of these condos one day.

Nice condo except the king mattress needs to be replaced it is worn and very uncomfortable. Also only one elevator is working. A lot of waiting for the elevator when you are on the upper floors found out the other elevator’s have been out of service for months
