Perfect For A Quick Getaway

My husband and I stayed in this adorable condo for a quick weekend without the kids. It was clean, cute decor and had everything we needed. Just across the street from the beach and a pool view. I did have to reach out to the host and her response was prompt and helpful. Plan on booking here again. Thanks Julie for a perfect weekend!

The Dawn was perfect!

We stayed at The Dawn for about a week in July 2023 and the location was perfect. It was right across the street from the beach and right next to a Wal-Mart which was very convenient. The pools, hot tub, and the grounds were kept up beautifully and the front desk made getting our pool bands simple and were so friendly and helpful. The condo itself had everything you needed and was clean and a perfect place to stay for a week. This will be our go to place when staying in Galveston!
