Nice property with a good ocean/gulf view, directly on the beach, no street crossing. Minor inconveniences were the small size of the bedroom (still enough room for a king bed) and hallway lights left on, which somewhat shone into the bedroom

It was a great place to stay close to the beach and also have a pool accessible. The kids loved the bunk beds, the bed was comfy and the couch bed was awesome to have for an extra bed. We enjoyed our stay!

Very clean condo. Comfortable bed and couch. Great porch. We like that the kitchen was well stocked with good quality items vs mis-matched pieces that tends to be typical in rentals. Access to the beach couldn’t be better. The pool and hot tub was fantastic

Texas Adventure

We are on a trip through Texas and Galveston was our first stop. We loved that the property was right on the beach. Staff and office staff were very helpful and friendly. The only disappointment was the coin laundry. We mistakenly thought each condo had their own laundry room.

groundkeepers were there every day cleaning and making sure trash, etc. was taken care of. the security was not very good. never saw anyone at pool checking for armbands. gate over the dunes does not lock. gate to drive onto property was not always manned. the office taking the payments has a paper copy of credit card and keep it in unlocked file cabinet. they said they shred it after unit is checked to make sure nothing was damaged. i hope so.

Great for 2, wouldn't recommend for a family

The condo was cute, but it was EXTREMELY small. There's one bedroom and the bed takes up the whole room. There's hardly any room to even walk around the bed, and I'm petite. The beds (including the bunk beds in the hallway) were very uncomfortable. Also, the comforter was obviously dirty. We have a family of 5, including an infant, toddler and 9 year old. It was way too small, and not very kid friendly. We attempted to cook using the provided pots and pans and everything stuck to the bottom. We couldn't get the condo under 86 degrees, so we reached out to the owner/property manager, and 3 days AFTER we checked out (5 days after I reached out to her) , she got back to us. The contract states that if the renter requests someone come , and nothing is wrong with it, then the RENTER is billed for the service. Turns out, if you leave the door/window open for 2 minutes (which is normal at the beach) the HVAC system turns off. The beach was amazing though! There's a private gate from the resort to the private beach area, and the kids had a blast.
