Galveston Porretto Beach Hotels

"Clean and a beautiful property"

"Great property and Joyce was super helpful in taking care of my fellow guests at the hotel. Will definately choose this location next time in town."

"From the first floor you have a street view. But my issue is with the rooms that appear to have water damage to the ceilings, rusty pool furniture, rusty pool fencing, rusty/broken pool bannister. My child cut her foot and I had to beg for a bandaid. Four people were expected to share 3 towels. They said they would hold $50 but held and processed a total of $270 instead of the $140 I booked it for, and of course management is no help and of course they wouldn't give a receipt with check out. What a rip-off with no end in sight."

"I promise, I’m not a high maintenance person…ask my husband. This property was old, grungy, and not at all what I was expecting or hoping for based on pictures, reviews, etc. The staff that greeted us, straight up lied to our faces, was defense when called out on it, and we still didn’t get the right room. We had done online check-in the night before. I was given the option to select the room I wanted and the room was guaranteed to a credit card. We selected the top floor to see over the thatch-roofed bar to see the ocean. When we arrived after 14+ hours of travel, and stops at several other hotels to drop folks off, we were exhausted. We checked in at the desk and our keycard said floor 2. When I inquired, she said she had to select my room by 5pm that same day because we weren’t there. The room I had selected (518) was no longer available (even though I have a pic of the confirmation). She said there was nothing she could do. My best guess, of course, is she gave our room away because we hadn’t physically checked in yet (by 5pm…really?). I was not happy, not at all. She claimed my “pre check-in” didn’t take in the system. If that’s the case, why can I show confirmation of the room I selected? I could’ve lived with the condition of the hotel even though it was def not the “Excellent” other guests said it was. The lying, I will not tolerate. Very disappointed in this Hilton Hotel. Do not recommend, not only for character of staff, but also condition of hotel. Thanks!"

"We had a wonderful stay at this beach cottage. It was very clean and quaint, and the quiet neighborhood made it especially relaxing. We really enjoyed sitting on the porch in the evenings. The cottage is also an easy walk to the beach and several restaurants. The host was great, and we would definitely come back again."

"Cute, clean, comfortable and very welcoming property. Good communication from host. Location is great, walk to beach and to restaurants up and down Seawall Blvd. Two bathrooms with showers is a huge plus. Sofa bed adds to the sleeping options. Everything you need. Staircase is quite narrow and steep, but wasn’t a problem for us."

"Just ok good location "

"You get exactly what you pay for. It wasn’t “clean clean”, but for $60 a night with a seawall view, we will be returning. The family staff was very friendly and we felt safe. Thank you so much!"

"Very nice VRBO stay. House very clean and beds very comfy. Located perfectly for where we wanted to go. Quiet neighborhood. Definitely would stay again. Michael very prompt in answering questions. Thank you for a great "sisters" weekend!"
