Loved the Ocean

We had a wonderful time at this little studio. Loved the view of the ocean. Our only suggestion would be to have some cereal bowls and a pizza pan. Great location!!

My husband and I needed to step away from a long house project and just decompress. We needed to do absolutely nothing! We enjoyed our stay at this quaint studio condominium. Very clean and such cute decor!

Great Stay

The property was just as described. We really enjoyed our stay, unfortunately we had to cut it short because of Beryl. However, owner offered to send cleaning crew ASAP, but the flooding was coming from the neighboring units. I appreciate the responsiveness to try to make our stay great. Would definitely stay there again.

Nice view on the gulf. The Seawall road that separates building from the beach is a bit busy and noisy. The bathroom and kitchen are aging and need upgrade. Overall nice location and relaxing atmosphere.

Great stay in Galveston.

Enjoyed the stay. The condo was well taken care of and very nice place to stay. I enjoyed the balcony and the fact that you are right across the street from the beach. Very convenient to everything in Galveston. I was here by myself on a sabbatical but a nice place for a couple to stay. The pool was nice as well as I used their laundry room as well. Front desk people were very helpful and I had no problems getting in the room when I arrived. You did get a lot of road noise when on the balcony but you’ll get that anywhere on the sea wall but you don’t hear the noise while in the condo. Overall an excellent place to stay and the owners always responded quickly. I would stay there again if given the chance.

Best spot

I met the condo owner by a fluke he was very nice and professional. Neither of us knew each other but talking in the elevator everything clicked he took great pride in our feedback immediately (wasnt his fault) but once he knew VRBO dropped the ball, he fixed it. Very clean. Cozy. AC is cold, which i love. Bed & couch are comfy. My only critiques are these: allot 1 roll of toilet paper per day and please add a 2nd lounge chair to the balcony space. Overall great experience. Clean cozy studio space perfect for me & my best friend. And the owners are flexible personable and KIND! I will definitely book them on my next trip! Jessica Newsom

Overall our stay was great! Condo is located across the beach!

The only thing wrong was the restroom floor was always damp; thinking might be because of the water heater located in the restroom. Overall great stay!

Nice little condo!

This was a nice little place to stay and very clean! Grounds were nice as well. Our only 2 negatives were the air conditioning and the bed. The air never got below 75 and the bed was small for us. But overall, it is a very good location, with a wonderful pool and great view! Condo was clean and mostly comfortable for us. The owner was responsive and friendly! I would definitely recommend!

Getaway Weekend

Enjoyed a quick 2 night stay, just the hubs and me, at this adorable condo! Everything is just as described in the listing, and the owner provided all of the necessary information in a timely manor. She also recommended a couple of restaurants and a coffee shop! Definitely a plus, and we appreciated it! We would definitely stay here again.
