Galveston Get Away

The condo was adorable, and the sunsets were great. We were a little further from the lazy river pool than I realized, so we had to drive, but it did not deter our fun. We enjoyed our stay! Thank you to James Oliver for checking on us!

Spring Vacation

We enjoyed our vacation to Galveston. We would have given 5 stars for cleanliness but there were dead flies and what looked like wasp in the home when we arrived. But we did enjoy the beach!

Wonderful for a family staycation!!

Beautiful clean condo with stunning views. Spectacular sunsets. Had everything needed for our family, including a pack and play for our baby. Highly recommend renting a golf cart and taking evening golf cart rides. The golf cart also made things super easy traveling back and forth to the pools. 10/10 recommend!!!

Family Getaway

Everything was as presented! Enjoyed our quick stay before school starts. Condo had plenty of room for our group of 6. Weather for beach was perfect and pools were great for relaxing. Renting a golf cart was a must for easy transport to and from the pool and to get to the beach access. Wanted to grill out but mosquitoes were out of control at that time, so come prepared! Only thing we would have appreciated was curtains to contain early morning sun light and a fan on the porch. Otherwise everything was good!

Beautiful condo with great layout for group

This is a very nice, clean and updated condo. The layout was perfect for our group (1 couple + 1 couple w 2 kids) because there is a master bedroom/bath on one side of the house and 2 rooms/bathrooms are on the other side. Kitchen is right in the middle and was very well stocked. There was also a small sitting area w a fold out bed available. Main living area is spacious with large couch and both outdoor balconies have a nice view. Our property manager was extremely communicative and responsive from day one. All instructions were clear and helpful. And the Beach Club (separate entity) was a must. There are 2 different pools and other amenities The ONLY reason I gave 4 stars on "Accuracy of Online Listing" is because while it mentions there is a bay view and "short drive" to beach, you need to know this unit it one of the furthest from the beach access point and it is across the street from the beach as well. But they are correct that is is a short drive. I just think it might be nice to clarify even more, if possible. But this is very minor and we recommend this property and company 100%.

Great Weekend Getaway

Condo was beautiful, everything we needed was onsite. Shout out to James for replacing our door handle that broke, he was there and had it replaced in under an hour. Balcony furniture was new and very nice, plenty of space for everyone to relax and enjou the weekend.

Pleasant stay

This property was the perfect set up for our family’s weeklong stay. It was clean and comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. The sunsets off the balcony were beautiful. The pool and beach access was a quick drive and easy parking. The furniture was all comfy. James was attentive to all our questions and check in and check out was super easy. Our only complaint was the elevator was unreliable. We would stay here again.
