Overall it was good. The condo needs some work and general updating. Cleaning should include the patio area, sweeping and bird poop on chairs/table. I read a July review saying that the tv in the master(king bed) did not work. I called, was told it fixed, it wasn’t. No trash can in the bathroom for that room either. Paint was peeling badly off the vanity in the bathroom for the other ( queen size) bedroom. The elevator had problems upon arrival and then it quit working twice during our 4-day stay. As in the other reviews, a Keurig would be nice and some decent frying pans. Heard king bed was not very comfortable, ours( the queen) was fine. Liked the sofa/bed. It was comfortable to pull out and rest while watching tv. View was of the beach was nice for a room on the RV park side. Water pressure and temperature was good.

Fit our needs perfectly!

This place was exactly what we needed and more. We didn't really have time to enjoy the pool but it's very convenient to the beach. It had everything we needed to cook with, even had some spices. Clean up was a breeze. Directions were clear. We were a little confused by the tv remotes, we only wanted it on for background noise while we played games so it wasn't super important to us, but still a little confusing. Parking was interesting. If there is space underneath you can park but not in an "owners" space. Which were the only empty ones. So we had to park on the outside, not a huge issue. You'll receive your property bands when you drive in, wear them at all times. They take security pretty serious. Overall it was lovely. If skydiving, the drop zone isn't far from the place. That's what we were there for and it worked out. Some family just walked over to watch us land. Highly recommend.

This property has a great location with direct beach access and close to major activities. There were some items that should be updated like cooking pans, silverware, outdoor patio furniture. The excellent location made up for all the other issues.

Place was dirty, rug needs to be replaced. Patio furniture is rusted and cigarette butts and trash was on the patio. Building overall needs repairs on the exterior. Off site manager did communicate, but wanted pictures of the dirty areas. Master bed TV didn’t work they offer to send someone over, in the am in the chat. But the we got a call at 4pm so we passed. Good location but needs updating and better cleaning.

Our stay was very enjoyable! We were happy with our unit, it was close to the elevator and parking. I would definitely return in the future! The A/C was cold. Having a washer and dryer was a plus!My kids, spouse and I loved the pool and hot tub areas, also Beach access was so convenient.My only complaints are, the TV in the master bedroom was not connected to cable/internet.(We like to enjoy our shows before bed) The other thing was, the blender was missing the top part that holds the liquid, It was just the base.

Just Okay

It would have been a wonderful stay had the elvator not been broken after I unloaded and took my handicapped mom up to the first floor, then wasnt able to get her or her wheelchair back downstairs to go to beach or literally do anything. The property managers refused to answer emails and left no phone number to call. Could have been a great stay but it just wasnt in the works for us. Zero communication whatsoever and they refused to acknowledge my issues. managers refused to answer

Excellent stay

Place was clean, comfortable... Ok, the couch sux, but aside from that, suite was great. Kitchen a bit lightly stocked... no pot holders, no decent skillet, etc. Hard to cook a real meal. Beach access excellent. Condo facilities were great, nice pool and hot tub, very comfortable. Everything easy to access. Security folks were pleasant. Access was fine, parking is good. Lots of local attractions nearby. Galveston beaches are not what those used to Florida are expecting. Silt and grit. That's not this place's fault, of course, but if you're expecting Sarasota, this ain't it. Of course, there weren't any hurricanes blowing through, either :D
