Amazing pool view

The stay here was great. The view from the balcony was absolutely beautiful, the pools were nice and everything was easy access. However, the elevator was slightly questionable, but the stairs weren’t too bad. The condo was clean for the most part, and was nicely decorated. All the appliances worked okay. One of the restroom door in the house wasn’t able to close properly and the towel rack fell a few times. Other than that everything else was fine.

Best condo at Maravilla!

The condo and view were spectacular. Very friendly and on call owner and manager. I’m sure I over bothered both of them! No complaints whatsoever. Great location too! We will definitely stay there again, if permitted as I forgot one of the most important checkout tasks! Starting the dishwasher. I’m blaming the other 3 “adults” for not double checking!

Liked: Communication
The property is a 2 star at best. I understand it is under construction, but there is a reason not many pictures of the actual property are shared. The 1.5 bathroom setup is very cramped with low water pressure in the shower. The instructions printed out on labels everywhere were pretty tacky. The top bunk has a vent that is way too low if anyone plans on using it. The towel rack fell off the wall. It did the job for 1 night before a cruise. Would not stay any longer.

Great location on the Seawall!

Great location! Perfect if you plan on going to Moody Gardens. On the Seawall with a view from the patio, heated pool, paid parking, carts to bring items to your room, paid washer and dryer. It is an older building, but clean. Working on repairs on the elevators, hot tubs and on non-heated pools. I was looking forward to the hot tub, but the heated pool was nice. Walmart and Kroger for groceries nearby. Murdock’s Gifts, Doc Holidays Roadhouse, the Strand shopping, and Gaidos for seafood were our favorites and there’s a Ben and Jerry’s ice cream. It was nice for our family to have three beds and bunk beds with two bathrooms and a walk-in shower.
