Great location in Galveston

Emerald at the Sea is a great location in Galveston, close to the Strand, restaurants and the beach. Check in was easy, parking was even easier, and the condo was well appointed. My husband has limited mobility, and the pool mobility chair was easy to use so he could enjoy time in the water. We enjoyed our stay over Memorial Day weekend.

Fun Place!

We loved our stay at Lori’s place. She was very responsive if we needed anything. We would like to come back and stay again as the pool, hot tub, and property had enough to offer in terms of fun. We cooked blackened shrimp fettuccine to keep with the beach theme (delicious.)

Mom's getaway!

Our stay was great! We had all the amenities that we could ask for. The view of the Gulf was amazing each morning while drinking coffee on the patio. The pool was a perfect way to relax after a day of sight seeing. We were thankful for the beach chairs and umbrella provided by the hosts! Check in process was easy and parking was great. I would definitely recommend staying here for your beach vacation!

Galveston

The unit was very nice, but the area was a little run down. I did not enjoy Galveston beach as much as I usually enjoy beaches. Not the property's fault! We enjoyed the pool though. A little too strict and time constraining with owners and renters.

Relaxing Atmosphere with beautiful views

This condo is spacious, clean and decorated beautifully. We came for a visit to Galveston to Celebrate my best friends birthday. We were two couples staying in this two bedroom condo. Plenty of room and everything we needed for our stay. The views off the balcony are breathtaking along with the beautiful pool and hot tub, that we used several times. The owner of this condo Lori was very accommodating and helpful. I would definitely stay here again!!

Excellent condo with great views.

Condo was extremely nice and well kept. The pools and hot tub were wonderful and our overall trip was great. It was out first time to Texas but won't be our last. The owner Daniel was excellent. Responded quick to our messages and took care of a minor issue we had which was out of any ones control. Top notch owner and understands a great deal what customer service is!!
