The Owner/Host of this unit was the best I have ever worked with at VRBO. Everything he said and the unit he represents was outstanding. From very attractive yet having space to put your things during your stay.They were ample towels, and simply everything anyone would need. I have rented a lot in these condos, and when I return, I plan on booking with him and his openings.

We've stayed in Michael's condo before & always find it charming. We watched beautiful sunrises from our wonderful balcony, while enjoying coffee from the coffee bar. We napped with our dog & shopped & ate at our favorite places. Our dog loved the dog park & walking on the beach. We loved relaxing by the beautiful pool that looks out on the gulf. The week was relaxing & fun & the condo was much of the reason why.

We loved our stay. Clean, well located, well stocked with a full functioning kitchen. Even had a choice of beach toys for the kids and a beach umbrella that was most appreciated. Patio was large with a beautiful view. Owner was promptly responsive to questions. Thanks for sharing with us!

Amazing property, enjoyed everyday. This property had everything we needed to feel right at home, plenty of extras as well. Clean and comfortable, easy check in. The location was close to everything but far enough to relax on a more open beach. The resort offered some cool amenities too like putting green, game room with pool, Foosball, board games, air hocky. Not one issue or concern to speak on.

Galveston Heaven!

Beautiful property…even more beautiful than the pictures! Place was so well appointed & decorated. We had everything we needed and everything we didn’t know we needed! The beach and property at Palisade Palms are THE BEST on the island! The guests were all so friendly. As a dog lover, getting to see happy dogs during our stay was a huge bonus. Will definitely be back! Thanks so much for a fabulous week!

Perfect Island Getaway -

We adored our time here. The property was perfect for our family. Ammenities were perfect for kids of all ages- and the private beach access couldnt be beat. It was nice to be secluded on East Beach away feom thr bustle of the Seawall but with easy access over to all the main attractions.The condo itself was perfectly appointed with everything we needed. Beds were super comfy and the balcony views were amazing. But best of all was the host who was super communicative from booking thru the stay. And his welcome packet was top notch! We'll definately be back!

Great location and perfect floor plan

Our family of 6 plus dog so enjoyed our stay at Michael's condo - clean and spacious, well-appointed kitchen, comfortable beds and linens, plenty of daily supplies as well as some extras we didn't anticipate. The condo management and staff are also top-notch. Quiet, too, though we were there over a busy holiday. This will be our preferred destination for future vacations in Galveston!

We chose the Palisade Palms because of location, amenities and accessibility. We chose this particular unit because by far it showed the most attention to detail when it comes to decor and that is extremely important to me; being that my daughter and myself are both disabled we spend tons of time and don't venture out as much when we vacation. The photos do not do the unit justice, it is spectacularly decorated. Well stocked with all the necessities for daily living and beach life, and then some... the only thing missing was a rolling beach cart, but they now have one. Our gift to you for a fantastic stay, we will book again soon.

Perhaps not discovered, this condo provides a George Foreman counter electric grill to provide grilling regardless of balcony conditions. The condo complex has no public grill.

Grandsons National Gymnastics Meet Getaway at Palisade Palms Resort

Palisade Palms is a beautiful resort with amazing views of the ocean, pool and morning sunrises! The amenities at this resort are great! I loved the area it is in, far enough away from the crowded areas but close enough with just a short drive to enjoy all the restaurants and entertainment. The condo we stayed in was beautiful and was supplied with everything we needed. If we were ever to visit Galveston again I would be definitely stay at Palisade Palms Resort again!

Stunning Beach Serenity~

Spectacular location and amenities, our family had a fantastic week together here. Morning coffee on the balcony with stunning views of the sunrise and the rhythmic waves tumbling onto the pristine beach made for perfect memories each day of our stay. The unit is well stocked with supplies to anticipate any need in the kitchen and for time at the beach. Host Micheal had excellent communication throughout the process, check in/out was smooth, and many recommendations for local restaurants. Highly recommend and look forward to our next visit!

Always a joy!

We LOVE to stay at Michael's condo! It's always clean & SO comfortable. We love the fourth floor view while sitting on the balcony with our coffee. The whole property is so nicely maintained. My grandchildren drove down from Houston for the day & SO enjoyed the beach. It was a wonderful way to spend family time with them. We enjoyed eating out & shopping as well as chilling by the pool. It was a great vacation, & we were sad to leave.

Absolutely AWESOME!

The condo was wonderful! When Tropical Storm Imelda rained for 3 days, we had coffee from the complimentary coffee bar downstairs, worked on a jigsaw puzzle from the game room, & watched the mighty wind & waves from our own generously sized balcony. We stayed an extra day to end our trip with sunshine! We loved our time in Galveston & believe that the condo with all of its amenities helped make the storm not just bearable but enjoyable.

Palisade Palms Galveston TX

Can't say enough about this rental. 5 stars in all areas! Palisades is an amazing place, and the staff treat you like family. Palisades is not your standard high rise Condo, it's a luxury site, and offer amazing amenities, including deluxe accommodations, pool, several hot tubs, mezzanine coffee bar, and easy access. Our unit was exactly as described, and was well stocked with supplies. I can see why our host, Michael, is a "Super Host" as he went above and beyond to support us. He checked on a regular basis to make sure all was ok, and recommended restaurants and things to do, based on our interest. Will definitely stay here again on our return trip, and assure anyone considering this unit you will not be disappointed.

About the host

Hosted by Michael Piana

Host profile image
While I live in Houston, I have been a Galveston weekender for 20 years. I enjoy an historic house on the island and all of the activities, dining, biking and beaching that the island offers. A great place to take life a little slower!

Why they chose this property

The Palisade Palms is located on the East Beach of Galveston Island which is quieter and slower pace. However, it is very close to the historic district with wonderful restaurants, tourist activities and shopping. The condo is faces the beach and provides wonderful views of the beach, gulf waves and ship traffic.

What makes this property unique

This condo is about 6 floors above the dunes/beach, so you have a beautiful view of and connection to the beach. The balcony faces east with an uninterrupted view of the stunning sunrise. The balcony avoids the afternoon sun and the pool activities, for a quiet evening on the balcony!
