Great spot with a beautiful pool and access to the beach
We loved our stay here. Cute little condo with a great pool and hot tub. The owner was very nice and helpful. My daughter asked if we could stay there every time we go.
My family stayed for 5 days. We loved the place. The 2 bedrooms both with king beds is really hard to find. The place was clean and comfortable. The location by the pool was awesome.
We enjoyed the stay it was very clean.Was very well stocked. were not very far from the convention center where we were to be everyday for dancing. The owner was very friendly and would respond to us right away.

Excellent location and fantastic host!
Condo was perfect for our family! Sweet memories made with our grandkids exploring Galveston.
Great location and property with a very responsive host! Having the pool right outside the condo was wonderful. The beds weren’t the most comfortable and the unit could use a deep clean but it was well stocked with lots of extras to use at the beach.
We had a fantastic stay at this condo in Galveston! The unit was very clean, well-kept, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect with easy access to the beach—just a short walk away. The pool area was also a big hit, clean and relaxing. Check-in was super easy, and the communication with the owner, Bob, was excellent. He was friendly, responsive, and made sure everything went smoothly. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a stress-free beach getaway!
We had the perfect stay in Galveston! This condo had everything we needed from the stocked kitchen to all of the beach accessories! The condo was very clean and in a great location!
The owner was easy to communicate with and had great suggestions to make our stay even better! We will definitely be going back!
We truly loved our stay. The condo was perfect! The pool was practically right outside our door and the beach was a quick walk across the street. The property was clean and our unit was super great.
Very nice property close to the beach and short drive to downtown Galveston. Owner was quick to respond to questions and a great resource on local places. Comfortable 2BR in well maintained complex.
We've stayed at this complex several times over the years, and this unit is definitely one of the best. First and foremost, Bob and Lillian were fantastic hosts—easily the most accommodating we've ever had. The beds were comfortable, and the home was spotless and nicely furnished. Being on the first floor and so close to the pool was a huge advantage, and the short walk to the beach made it even better. Without a doubt, we'll be staying here again.
This is such a great place to stay. Right next to the pool and so close to the beach you can walk there. Condo was stocked with so many essentials for cooking and laundry, truly appreciated it. The location is great, conveniently located but a grocery store as well as walking distance from sweet treat! The amenities at the condominium are perfect for a getaway. My family and I had a wonderful time here. Felt like home away from home.

Perfect place to vacation!
Absolutely wonderful! Our stay was perfect in every way. The condo was clean, cozy and convenient to all the fun activities offered in Galveston. The owner was always quick to respond to texts/phone calls and was pleasant and helpful every time. We loved staying here. It was cute, comfortable and very child friendly. Should we vacation in Galveston again, I hope we can get this condo...I wouldn't want to stay anywhere else!
Very Relaxing and peaceful. Very clean and modern home.Beds we’re comfortable. Great communication with the owner. Pool and spa were very clean and we really enjoyed it! The lotion provided was helpful as we did soak up lots of sun. I even found a bread pan and decided to make banana bread! Everything we needed was provided. It was definitely worth the money we paid! We hope to come back again.

Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Check-in
Make sure all your codes are up to date. We had to jump through hoops to get in when checked in.
Very difficult to change the Congo door code to our own number. Once we got it changed, it all signed fine.
Nice condo in a great location.
Great place. But did not like the fact we didn’t know the hot tub wasn’t working until we were waiting for it to get warm at 9 pm. Very disappointing. $40 to park seems excessive. But the condo was beautiful and kept very clean. No complaints about the condo itself or the owners. They kept in great contact.
