Galveston family trip

Just as listed. We had a great time here. Condo is very roomy, very comforting, had all the amenities we needed to cook each day. Perfect location to be next to the lazy river pool. Close drive to the beach club if you want to be over there. A/C worked great. Literally the only compliant I had was the guest queen bed. It was terrible but I called the owners and they assured us it was being replaced. Other beds were great. Would definitely stay here again.

The space and the updates are what made this visit amazing. There was plenty of room for all of us and never felt crowded. 4 adults and 2 littles (5 &7). We even had other family drop in for meals and a game and we still had plenty of room. The location to the lazy river was perfect for a quick to and from the pool. I loved that I could take long walks along the paths available. There was an A/C issue; however, the owner was quick to respond and did try to get it looked at. Praise the Lord the A/C kind of worked itself out as we were there and it wasn't pleasant the majority of our trip. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to others.

Lofland/Nelson Vacation 2023

The overall floorplan for our condo was amazing! We have stayed in other condos in the area before and this was the best condo by far we have stayed in. The kitchen area was open to the rest of the living area and the cook was not left out of the family activities. Our balcony overlooked the lazy river pool area which was nice. My grandkids (5 and twin 3 yr olds) loved the bunkbeds in their room. The shower in the master bathroom was great (nice and big)! All three grandkids could shower at once after at trip to the beach. The only thing that would have made our stay nicer would have been cooling off the water at the lazy river. The water was 102 degrees at 9 PM!

Great location bad cleaning

We enjoyed our time at this property but could not get over how dirty it was. 1) there was dust on every open shelf in the property 2) there was white dog hair everywhere (we do not have a dog) 3) the couches were not cleaned/vacuumed - crumbs everywhere and the carpet needs some serious help. There were nails sticking out in the carpet by the master to the point I had to put a towel down, nasty stains (probably pet urine) etc. I would stay in this complex but probably not this same unit again.

Response from VrboOwner on 26 June 2022
Thank you for the feedback Madelyn. Sincerely not happy and I am disappointed with the inconvenience these things caused you and your family. We take all constructive feedback seriously. We are in process of checking and fixing the carpet/nails issue in the master. As you requested and we gave you a 4 hour early check-in, maybe our housekeeping team rushed and wasn't able to get the place as cleaned as it should have been. We have discussed this with our housekeeping team and agreed on limiting the early check-in requests unless we can ensure the place is cleaned to our standards. Although I am disappointed that you won't stay at our unit in future, I still wish you will keep visiting Pointewest and enjoy what our community has to offer. Thank you - Vira

Not clean, tiny bugs crawling on us!

After the first night of having tiny bugs crawling on us in the master bedroom, we moved to sleep in the bunkbed room the remaining nights (9 night stay) and never had bug issue. Upon straitening up and gathering our items to pack, we discovered the cause of the bug issue. Under the master bed, as well as behind the nightstand we found open Coke and beer cans....hosting hundreds of tiny bugs. We notified the owner(s) and they seemed genially concerned and upset as this is the duties of the contracted cleaning crew to take care of. They offered a refund of the "cleaning fee".

Thank you for the review. Sorry for inconvenience that left over can (bugs) caused you guys. We would have appreciated if you could have advised day one when this issue was identified as we would have taken appropriate actions. We have discussed this issue with our cleaning team and are committed to providing a clean place for our guests to relax, refresh, and re-energize.

Beautiful Condo/ Consider Some Research

It was a beautiful place and the decor was very nice. Everything worked perfectly for us in the condo!!I should’ve read the fine print on the listing that to access the amenities of Pointe West including pools and beach, the guest is responsible for paying 25 per guest for wristbands. My bad because in previous stays at other condos here this was taken care of as part of the condo payment.Also note that this condo does have direct access to the small pool/ lazy river, but is located across the street and a little trek (definitely not walkable) from the Pointe West beach access, larger pool area, restaurant, gym etc. Additionally, the gym and children’s play area were under renovation and not accessible during our stay. If these are important to you, I would call the main number for Pointe West to ensure that all of the facilities are available for use before booking. The gym closure was a bit of an issue for us as two of our guests were planning on daily workouts.Obviously this is not the fault of the owner, but again could’ve been part of my own research.Overall, the stay was highly enjoyable!!

The location of the condo was perfect. The condo was very spacious, with updated appliances, and beautiful decor. We loved the huge balcony that faced the bay & the smaller balcony that faced the beach.The host was great to communicate with. She got back with me right away on a few issues. I also loved the condo was pet friendly so we could bring our little senior dog with us.

The condo is beautiful. The location is great. Bring mosquito spray. You will need it. But you will love location and condo. Very clean! Pools were great. Wish we would have known about getting armbands at Beach Club and the pool and beach access there. We lost a dayOn that. But great stay and everything you would need it there!

Lots of gnats inside condo. No cushions on outside couch. No closet in bedroom with double bunks. No room to move around in that room. Bottom double bunk leaning down because of broken slat. No chairs on deck facing coast. Rest of condo nice. Elevator broken at big pool and lots of stairs. Ramp way in back. Lazy river small and crowded, but nice. Overall very peaceful though. Outside condos should be sprayed for mosquitoes and inside for gnats. Otherwise very clean.

VERY nice Condo.

Starfish is by far the best VRBO that I have stayed at. Decor is wonderful...relaxing. Condo exceptionally clean. The kitchen was incredible. Very well stocked for a VRBO. Cookware was in great shape...TONS of dishes and glasses...all kinds of small appliances. All in all it was a wonderful stay...and this is the only negative that I can come up with too. I only wish that we had, had a heads up about the Mosquitos out there. They were vicious, and HUGE. =0) If we had a heads up we could have taken our bug spray with us. But that was a minor issue. We LOVE It.
