About this property

Stunning Ocean View | 3 Amazing Pools | Hot Tub

Currently the front building of the Maravilla is getting a face lift. The construction area is currently next to the front office which is temporarily closed. The only impacted amenity is the gym as it is closed during this time however the Marriott next door is allowing our guest to use their gym. General construction noises may be heard throughout daytime hours only. You may also pass by construction crew members or areas on the property when getting to our condo. You will see typical construction equipment such as scaffolding and areas with boarded plywood on the front building.

Upon arrival you will need to pay for parking to the HOA. Here is a link where you can pay https://maravillatx.com/test2/.
You will still need to go the to front office to get your swim bands.Enjoy for yourself the great view of the ocean and the lagoon from your private patio! Welcome the morning Sun while sipping your coffee!

Our well-stocked kitchen includes a Keurig and separate coffee pot, blender, toaster and crockpot, as well as cooking supplies and general spices. Convenient breakfast bar for dining and plenty of counter space for serving. If you prefer to dine out, check out our list of favorite restaurants in our condo book on site.

Cozy living room features a comfy sleeper sofa, 55" flat screen TV and additional chairs that provide plenty of seating.

The master bedroom boasts a King bed and a 48" TV.

Twin bunks are just outside the master bedroom and have plugs for tablets and phones as well as their own lights for late night reading.

Spacious, remodeled full bath. Convenient washer and dryer with laundry supplies available for use during your stay. All bath linens and bed sheets are provided. The master and both twin beds are ready upon arrival with additional linens for the sofa bed.

The Maravilla complex has 3 pools plus a hot tub you can enjoy. The beautiful resort pool is one of the largest on Galveston Island and a guest favorite. There is a smaller kiddie pool with a beach entry and on the east side the third pool is heated in the winter months. Three elevators serve the complex, and the "Sea Horse" elevator provides the closest access to the unit.

The Maravilla is a Pet friendly complex. Maravilla now has an amazing new DOG PARK located on the Westside of Building G. You and your guests can take your pet(s) to the park, let them off their leash to run, jump and enjoy their Beach Vacation too. The Dog Park has a doggie shower, toys (Frisbees, hula-hops) obstacle courses, fire hydrant and so much more for your fur-babies to enjoy. Benches are located through-out the park so you can sit and watch them play. Pet stations are on the far Westside of the park and we ask that you please pickup after them. When exiting the Dog Park we ask that you pick up the toys your pet has played with and secure the gate.. In addition; hand sanitizer station is located at the exit of the park.

NOTE: We have also added an Doggie Shower on the driveway side of the EAST POOL, so that you can rinse off your pets after going to the beach and before entering your condo. No aggressive breeds, weight limit is 30 pounds.

Covered parking as well as additional parking is available - parking is $10 per day per car for your entire stay and must be purchased in the Maravilla office when you arrive.

The ocean is directly across the street, and the beach widens as you head left towards Jimmy's on the Pier. Whether you're looking for a romantic weekend getaway, a weekend away with friends or a fun-filled family adventure, our condo is a great place to relax and enjoy your vacation!

For your convenience we have included a wagon that you are welcome to use to get to and from the beach. All we ask is that you rinse it off before returning to the condo.

Wonderful Family Getaway

Sandra was a wonderful host. The condo was so clean and exactly as pictured. It had everything we needed for our short stay. There was also plenty of storage for a smaller unit. We stayed during construction on the building but it was no problem at all. The pools were all open and wonderful as well.

Property was nice. No creamer for the coffee, lack of ice in the ice maker (we assume it doesn’t work), as well as waking up to no water are the reasonings for the review being a little low.

Response from VrboOwner on 3 May 2026
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We genuinely value all guest reviews as they help us continue to improve the experience we offer. We would like to take a moment to respectfully address a few points raised in your review. Regarding creamer — this is not an amenity we include as part of our rental offering, however we do ensure that all guests have an ample supply of coffee provided for their stay. The water issue you experienced was unfortunately a resort-wide matter, and therefore outside of our direct control as property owners. We understand how inconvenient that can be, and we are sorry it affected your stay. With respect to the ice maker, we would have been more than happy to address this promptly had we been made aware during your visit. We always encourage guests to reach out to us directly so that we can resolve any concerns in a timely manner. It is also worth noting that ice is available for purchase at the resort’s ice machine, which is accessible to all guests. We hope that despite these challenges, there were aspects of your stay that you enjoyed. Should you choose to visit again, we would welcome the opportunity to provide you with an even better experience. ~Sandra

About the host

Hosted by Sandra Marconi

Host profile image
We are Dominic and Sandra Marconi from Texas. Dominic grew up in Buffalo, New York loves ice hockey, snow skiing, running triathlons and doing the Iron Man (he's done a half) and being with his family. Sandra grew up in Port Arthur, Texas and spent all her spare time at the beach.
We have spent many summer vacations at the beach with our 4 children while they were growing up. Now we love spending time with them and their spouses while at the beach. There is no greater joy than playing bocce ball with our kids while at the beach. One of our life goals was to have a place at the beach where we could all hang out and enjoy the surf, sand and each other. We hope you enjoy staying in our darling condo. Kick your shoes off, grab a glass of wine and enjoy the sand and the surf.
Enjoy Sea the Sunrise.
The Marconi's

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property because we love being able to get to the coast in an hour. Galveston has so much to offer put that together with our condo and you have a perfect match. The condo is so beautifully decorated and is very comfortable to relax in. We love the fact that our little 5.2 pound YorkiePoo feels at home at this complex as it is very pet friendly. If you have a workout enthusiast like I do there is a great gym with all kinds of equipment.
The condo is close to Moody Gardens, Schlitterbahn, a very fun go cart course and tons of great restaurants. Pleasure Pier is just down the street. Take a cruise on the Ferry over to Boliver Peninsula. Spend some time on the Strand shopping or visit the Ocean Star Offshore Drilling Rig & Museum. Take a tour of the Elissa to see how sailors used to live. Take a minute to slow down and visit the Moody Mansion and all it's glory. There is so much to see and do in Galveston which is one of the reasons we decided to purchase here.

What makes this property unique

I fell in love with this condo when we actually stayed here last year. We sat outside on the balcony with some of our family and enjoyed a wonderful dinner with wine and a fantastic view. The sun was setting, the wind was blowing and I just knew that we needed to purchase here. This is my Happy Place. I know it will be yours also.
