Thanks so much for the 10 out of 10, compliments, and extremely helpful tips for future guests! We're delighted you enjoyed your island time and hope to host you again!
Check in was easy and the young lady at the desk even walked with us to show us where everything was and how things worked! Unit was as advertised, spacious, comfortable with spectacular views. Had a snow storm while we were there which limited our beach activities, but the location was such that we could easily enjoy the many activities that the island offers. Galveston is a great destination!

Thank you for allowing us to host you, and we're delighted you experienced a wonderful stay, Ralph! What a unique experience with the sprinkling of snow. Sorry it limited some of the beach activities but hopefully added to the adventure. We hope to have you back again!
Chair with leg about to break, broken chairs in both decks, black mold in master shower, used, bar of soap in guest bath, feces on bath mat in guest bathroom, dirty air vents,cereal on floor in kitchen at time of arrival, and an expired fire extinguisher. Big violation. Great location and friendly people and staff.

The condo was very nice, spacious, and kid friendly. The entire unit was very clean. Communication with the 979 team was excellent. Our kids really enjoyed the pool area. Overall, we would stay here again!

Yay, we're so happy to hear your Palisade Palm experience was a successful one for your group! Thank you for allowing 979 to host you, the 5-stars, and being such wonderful people to host. We hope to have you back again!
This complex is just beautiful! The heated pools, gym, game room and sauna was utilized during our entire stay. The condo we stayed it had 2 balconies with beautiful views of beach and bay! We ate dinner every evening on balcony!! My only complaint was 4 towels were provided for the entire week for 4 people?? 2 per person would of been more appropriate!! There was a musty smell when we arrived which eventually did subside some!! Use some real plants to keep odors away!! We will be back next year! God willing!

Thank you for the allowing us to host your stay, Linda! We're so glad you loved the beautiful double balconies, it is quite the location. We appreciate the suggestions and hope to host you again!
Condo is located on the west side of the west tower on the 3rd floor. This gave the feeling of privacy when on either balcony. There is a large game room at the other end of the hall on 3rd floor also. Everything about this unit was 1st class. We would definitely stay here again. It is actually nicer than the pictures which almost never happens!

Why thank you Chad! We appreciate the 5-stars, compliments and tips for future guests. We would be delighted to host you again!
Palisade Palms is phenomenal. The easy beach access, the sparkling clean beach, the complimentary beach chairs and the deck with high back stools to sit and watch the waves are great. The property itself is beautiful. The pool area, stellar. The condo with two balconies is perfect. I only wish the bed would be a smidge softer, and the couch would be a regular cushy couch (for comforts sake) not a sofa bed. Just wishes on my part. This is the second time we have stayed there in the last twelve months, and we would stay there again.

Thank you for the 5-stars Charlotte, and we're delighted to have you back to Palisades! We appreciate the compliments and suggestions for us to pass along to the owner. We do hope you plan that return trip!
This property has fantastic amenities and direct access to the beach. We had never been to Galveston before and it was great to not have to cross any major road to get to the beach, and not have to fight with finding parking. It's about 1 mile walk up the beach to the public beach, which can then put you on the main seawall strip. The property has a fun game room, and a large gym with sauna. The staff was helpful a d very nice. We were there when there were some storms and I was amazed at how quiet it was even though it was 25+mph winds.

We're delighted to hear you thoroughly enjoyed your first trip to Galveston and Palisade Palms! Sounds like a great time was had! Thank you for the 5-stars, compliments and tips for future guests!
We were impressed when we walked in the door. The condo had every thing to we needed. The condo itself is spacious with great views on both sides. The kitchen was just right & we do cook in most evenings. The bed was comfortable. The facility had some nice amenities-coffee in the morning, a game room & an awesome fitness center. We used them all including the pool. We did enjoy some nice restaurants. The only drawback is you do have to drive everywhere. Even so, we would definitely like to return to this property.

The property is very nice. The unit itself had a nicely equipped kitchen. The carpets in the bedrooms were filthy. When I asked that they be cleaned the management company sent someone over the next day. The second bedroom is listed as having a queen bed- it’s a double. There are no extra blankets so if you get cold bring your own

Hi Betty, this condo unit and building are very nice, thank you for noting.
We're sorry to see your 3-star however. Respectfully, and as you said, we had our carpet cleaners over the very next day, talk about quick action. And also per your prior communication, it was discovered that bleach had caused the "stains" rather than dirt. Sounds like someone accidentally spilled some bleach or bleach product, unfortunately, for the sake of this condo and its owner. We haven't had anyone mention a bed size mismatch previously and are fairly certain it is a queen, but we will confirm. Lastly, we are not sure what kind of extra blankets you are looking for, but if there aren't any throw blankets will pass that feedback along to the owner. Thanks again for staying with us.
Property is nice. Pool area is a little small for a condo this large. Beach access is easy and it was very quiet and not crowded on the beach.
The unit was nice and clean. We had an abundance of ants during our stay but that could have been from the rain. The tv in the living room could use a Roku or fire stick so you can get newer streaming apps. We couldn’t get direct tv and had to stream/mirror from a device. All the bedrooms have Roku or newer TVs. A bigger couch would also be nice. It was very stiff and small would return to this unit and condo.

We're glad you liked it Matt! Thank you for the compliments and suggestions we can pass along to the owner. You are correct, those darn ants do love coming in out of the rain. Let's hope for sunnier skies on your next visit!
Beautiful property, but the furniture in the living room, dining room, and balcony not at all comfortable.

Thank you for allowing us to host your seaside stay! We agree, it is quite the beautiful location and property and appreciate you noting. As for the furnishings, while definitely subjective, we will certainly check out their comfortability. Also, since your stay 2 new outdoor loungers were installed. We hope to host you again!
Thank you for allowing us to host your stay, Judy. We're so glad you enjoyed this spot including the dual balconies with the amazing views, the cleanliness of the condo, and the luxurious bath towels. We're sorry you were expecting even more of these towels during your stay. We appreciate the feedback.
