Perfect for Families and Grandparents!

Our condo is the ideal spot for grandparents to relax and enjoy watching the little ones play at the pool or beach. Families who want more quality time together—and less time chasing after small children—will love the comfort, space, and convenience this condo offers.

Highlights:

Easy access to the pools and just steps away from the sandy beach across the street (with safe crossing).

Spacious, beautifully decorated, child-friendly condo with full kitchen and all the essentials.

Voted Best Condominium on the Island in 2003 and again in 2024!

Amenities:

2 beautiful pools (one typically heated, currently under maintenance) and a relaxing community hot tub.

Beach chairs, toys, and other amenities provided.

Highchair and Pack ’n Play for little ones.

Full-size washer and dryer in the unit.

3 smart, flat-screen TVs.

24-hour fitness center onsite.

Location:

Just 1 mile to Moody Gardens and the Convention Center.

Galveston Trolley stops right outside the complex for easy access to attractions along the Seawall (limited hours in off-season).

Patio overlooks the pool with a private gate for quick access.

Why You’ll Love It:

Prepare meals in the fully equipped kitchen, then relax and dine together in comfort. Whether you’re lounging by the pool, enjoying the hot tub, or crossing the street for a day at the beach, your stay will feel like a resort experience—without the resort prices.

Our photos don’t capture the true relaxation and comfort you’ll experience here. We’ve designed this condo with your safety, comfort, and family fun in mind.

Searching for seashells, spotting little sea creatures, and creating memories together is what a Galveston getaway is all about.

Comfortable and Clean

Felt like home. Very clean and nice. Could have done without the noisy neighbors stomping around all hours of the night on the floor above us but I guess that’s what happens when you have a ground floor condo. Otherwise, loved the condo.
