Enjoyable stay - start to finish

Our family of four needed rest. This condo allowed just that through cleanliness, relaxing decor, a fully stocked kitchen, a beautiful pool area, beach across the street, etc. We had the privilege of meeting Dave and Pam and they were very thoughtful and caring hosts. We will be recommending this stay to anyone we know heading to Galveston.

Clean, accommodating, great pool and excellent view!

Very clean, plenty of towels, kitchen needs stocked, balcony view was awesome! The owner was very responsive to any inquiries. It's on a much quieter part of the Seawall, which is exactly what we'd hoped for. Lots of construction currently, but it was never loud or disruptive to our peaceful retreat. Would definitely stay again and recommend!
