Great Condo

We especially appreciated being able to park very close to the elevator and the condo was very close also. We are both 85 and walking is not easy for us. It was very clean and very quiet with a wonderful view!

Thanks Galveston!

Beach access paired with pool access for cooler days was ideal for us. Our area of the beach was never crowded. The view was amazing, the property was quiet, and we enjoyed our trip immensely. The unit itself was perfect for three of us.

Nice but tight

The location and view of the gulf from this unit were fantastic. Accessibility was also very good because of the elevator. The only downside was the very small size of the bathrooms made entry/exit from the showers difficult. Very nice property. Communication with management was very good in all phases.

Good location on the property. We had a nice view of the ocean and ate every meal on the balcony. Comfy couch to relax in the evening after sunning all day. Nicely decorated throughout and just a good change of scenery for us. Overall, the entire condo complex was a joy.

Absolutely Perfect!

I can’t say enough positive things about our stay and the property! Clean, accommodating with a beautiful view! The only downside was I had planned on being able to do laundry but the Rental Office didn’t have quarters to make change and we chose not to visit a store to get any. Otherwise, perfect stay!
