Cute place, Just wasn't ready..

When we checked in the host was still cleaning and didn't leave for another 1/2 hour. Also when he left there was a bandaid in the toilet that wouldn't go down...We had just arrived from the beach with our 9 month old baby and needed showers ASAP. The linens were not ready, no bed sheets and zero towels. For 2 whole hours..... We had to use a dirty beach towel to bathe our baby and ourselves. Power went out during the shower (no one's fault) Then when we finally got into bed at night it seemed as if the bed frame was not put together properly, the whole bed shook and made loud noises with every move we made, waking up our baby several times through the night. Very disappointed as this was our first beach trip with our baby and my husbands birthday. The cleaning fee should have been refunded at the very least. Nothing was extended towards us, not even a real apology.

By the Sea Getaway

We loved staying here. It was close to everything we needed. We enjoyed the balcony with the best view, especially for morning coffee and a glass or two of wine at night. Dax and Brett are wonderful hosts. I highly recommend for your next getaway. Wish we could have stayed longer.

First time, great experience

This was our first time using VRBO, and it was a fantastic experience! The condo was fresh, clean, and felt like home from the moment we walked in. While the building itself is older, it has a lot of charm, and the staff at the front desk were incredibly friendly and helpful. The host made everything simple and stress-free with clear communication and easy instructions.The view from the condo was absolutely beautiful—we spent hours soaking it in. The beach is just steps away: a quick elevator ride down and a short walk across the street. It was so convenient to pop back up to the condo for a fresh drink or a quick break.While the bedroom doesn’t have a view, we ended up sleeping on the pullout couch in the living room the first night just to enjoy the scenery a little longer. Both the bed and the couch are quite firm, but we still slept comfortably. The condo is well-stocked with appliances and amenities, which made it easy to settle in.Our only wish was that the pool faced the ocean—it would have been lovely to float with a view! Because of that, we didn’t end up using the pool. That said, the location can’t be beat—great restaurants and shops are within walking distance, and parking was easy and felt very secure.We’re already looking forward to our next visit!
View from the balcony
Those chairs are so comfortable. We dozed in them while enjoying that beautiful view.

Family Beach Vacation

Property is just as listed and shown in the pictures. Location is great, located close to everything you need (restaurants, stores, beach). Loved being able to wake up to an ocean view and the convenience of being able to walk across to beach was great for us. Construction was a little annoying at times but nothing too much. My children also enjoyed the pool. Only had one little issue that i had to reach out to the owner and it took several hours to get a response, but in the end it was fixed. Would recommend staying here.

Well, both owners were nice although they barely got the place cleaned in time for us on our arrival. The place was great and clean but the coffee maker was hard to work. Also only ONE coffee cup for coffee in the morning...right when we were leaving I looked in the dishwasher and noticed that it was not emptied....hence no coffee cups.Also, the toilet seat is really loose to the point where I almost fell off it while getting up.Other than that, all was good with the exception of the parking pass charging almost 40 to park at a place where we were already paying over 200...The DID refund me my parking pass thank goodness.

Obviously not a new facility, but still clean and well-maintained. Parts under construction so front parking lot not available at times. We booked to enjoy the area, not necessarily the facility. Facility is reasonably priced and conveniently located. We would definitely book again if in Galveston.
