Magnificent for my mermaids

This location was perfect for our family who love the ocean and shelling at the beach. The amenities were great and worked well, it was clean and mostly quiet. Beds were comfy and this space comfortably slept everyone. We would love to stay there again.

The property manager, Julie, did a great job of communicating with me. The place is clean a d has a beautiful view of the Ocean. Parking isn't cheap, but it's all fenced in, which is nice when you ride a motorcycle. I would definitely stay here again.

Hope they can fix it

The room was beautiful with the decor and the view was just perfect but some cleaning, maintenance and a little improvement would be nice. The restroom had a horrible odor of urine in there that lingered through our stay. The toilet kept running and we had to constantly keep fixing the pump. The most unpleasant thing was the mattresses. We have not been in an old spring mattress since I can’t recall. We slept very uncomfortable the 2 nights because the mattresses. We have stayed in lots of places and I have to admit those mattresses were the worse. My husband and I both woke up with severe back aches. Like I mentioned room was beautiful but when things like the issues I had defeats all other things. I hate to say but I won’t be booking this room again unless these issues are fixed.

Perfect location

We had an amazing time at Mermaid Lookout! Absolutely zero complaints. The condo itself is beautiful with a great view and useful amenities. The location could not be any better in my opinion. The beach is a short 5-7 minute walk and you pass right by the pool coming and going! Close to restaurants, shopping and Walmart is right across the street. We definitely plan on returning in the future!

About the host

Host profile image
I live in Galveston very close to The Dawn Condos. I lived in DFW area for almost 40 years before moving to Galveston.

Why they chose this property

Galveston is great for family vacations and getaways with all of the year round events. After looking at other beachfront complexes, The Dawn had the best amenities and condo floors plans. The grounds are very well maintained and the pools are great.

What makes this property unique

Great views and proximity to shopping, restaurants, activities.
