About this property

Birds in Paradise Great Views-Open Balcony-5 Beds

Birds in Paradise is a top floor condo on Galveston's famed Seawall welcoming up to 8 guests - fully equipped kitchen with full sized appliances, 5 BEDS - King, Queen, Queen Sleeper Sofa and Bunk Beds, too!

The master bedroom has a king bed, the second bedroom a queen, the living room a queen sleeper sofa and in the hallway alcove you will find twin bunks.

There are 1 1/2 baths with a tub/shower in one area - and two areas each with a toilet and sink - one accessed through the master bedroom, the other through the hallway.

While Maravilla is a gulf front property, it is not beach front just yet – we’ve heard that the sand will be extended to this area in fall of 2023 - there are stairs that lead to the water and people walk down those stairs to fish and swim frequently - but not a great place for a family picnic or sunbathing as there are large rocks in this area - the nearest sandy beach is approximately .75 miles to the west.

Don't let this deter you as the complex has 3 pools (1 heated) a hot tub, outdoor volleyball, a fitness room and so much more to offer. Many folks come for the beach and never leave the complex except to eat! Not a better place in Galveston for you to stay.

The whole place is yours! In addition to the condo, as a registered guest you have access to the 3 pools (one heated when necessary), hot tub, fitness facilities, BBQ grills and picnic tables inside of the gated pool areas and so much more!

Prior to your arrival we will email you confirmation with check in instructions and a code to access the property you've rented. We do have an office on the island, and we are available 24/7 in the event of an emergency.

My Galveston Getaway provides starter supplies of toiletries, paper products, dish cleaning options and coffee to get our guests started and situated before making their shopping lists and determining which shopping option works best for their group. These supplies are not intended to last your entire group the duration of your stay - but to get started!

We also provide one bath towel, hand towel and wash cloth for each guest that the unit sleeps, along with 2 dish towels. Should you wish to have additional housekeeping services during your stay or to have linen swaps during your stay, these can be arranged with advance notice upon request at an additional cost.

We charge $75 for approved dogs. There is a 2 dog maximum with a combined weight maximum of 60 pounds. We will ask you to send a picture of the dog to us before approving it. Due to insurance regulations of the owner, and no matter how cute they are, we are unable to approve full bred or mutts containing the blood line of any animal or breed identified as dangerous or vicious including pit bull, rotweiler, chow, shephard or doberman. Not all of our condos nor all complexes are dog friendly. For the few we manage that are dog friendly – it is dogs only, and no other animals. The fee does not apply to true service animals – though some of our units – due to owner allergies or other personal reasons – do not allow dogs regardless. While the comfort they provide is priceless, please note that as hosts of short term rentals – emotional support animals are not the same as a true service animal and only dogs are permitted and there is a fee for emotional support animals.

The complex charges $10 per day per vehicle as a resort/amenity/parking fee. This is not charged by us and is paid at the time of your arrival directly to the office of the complex.

We strive for 5-star reviews at all times - and the first part of that is notifying everyone of every cost they may incur so that there are no surprises. If during your stay with us you find any reason that you are not able to rate our service and the property a 5 star review based upon the description of the property, that the pictures accurately depict the property, or our courteous service - please let us know and give us the opportunity to turn that frown upside down and EARN your 5 star review.

Had a good time
This was comfortable to stay at for the weekend. The adult sized beds are not terribly comfortable.

Nice place to stay for quick getaway
Property is in a great location! Very close to seawall beach access, restaurants, and pleasure pier. Only issue with this property is the elevator was SUPER slow and hot! Also, there is no one around to regulate the noise from the large pool (people blasting loud music all day/night). Unit was accommodating for my family (3 adults and a one year old and two dogs). The unit was clean overall and beds were comfortable. Temperature was great and you did not need to even have thermostat set at 72 degrees! Floors could've been cleaned a bit better though, and dining al fresco was not an option this summer (way too hot!) - they did provide a folding table and chairs but it was more work to put up and away each morning so we didn't bother. Also, we definitely could've used more face and hand towels - one per bathroom aint gonna cut it if the unit sleeps more than 4. The unit itself could use some updating - cracks in floor tiles, lock on main sliding door didn't work, master bath door sticks (doesn't close properly) and stovetop coils were uneven.

Perfect location
Birds in Paradise is the perfect family vacation spot. The swimming pools and location to the beach were just perfect for our family. The unit was nice, cool, and quiet. The views from the balcony were amazing and the perfect morning coffee spot. Would definitely come back again!
