Galveston property

Great location on east beach area away from the busy tourist seawall area. A great place for adults to stay and play without all the tourists. We frequent Galveston several times a year and stayed in this property twice. It’s almost like staying at a private resort but there is no restaurant on property which is not an issue if you know your way around Galveston.

Perfect condo for a couples get away. View of beach is beautiful. Everything was very clean. Comfortable bed. Well stocked kitchen. A lot of towels. Keurig and coffee pot. AC very cold. Bed is comfortable. My only recommendation would be the unit could use a few extra blankets and trash bags. Thank you for renting to us.

I have stayed at the Galvestonian many times over the years and have found the properties most enjoyable. Unfortunately, I was disappointed in this five star rated unit. I didn’t find the furniture comfortable in the living or dining area. The plastic stools and dining chairs were uncomfortable, and the dining table wobbles. The sofa was more comfortable, but only marginally. Fortunately, the bed was very comfortable and this made up for quite a bit. The kitchen is has most of the things you will need, but I wasn’t overly impressed with quality or extras. The dishwasher didn’t work and communicating with the manager while she tried to explain how to make it work it always failed and eventually a repair man was called, but the results of his investigation was not communicated to me and I had to contact the property manager to find out that the dishwasher couldn’t be repaired. This is not five star communication although the communication prior had been reasonable. I will return at the Galveston Inn in the future, but I will never stay in this unit again.

Oceanfront beauty!

We always love this property. Everything is as pictured; love the Brita, comfy bed, everything you need for a vacation at the beach. The only thing I can think of that would be helpful is a dryer, but totally understand that too — so we come prepared, but even beach towels are provided though. Everything you need and more!

We will be back! Stunning condo and view.

Me and my best friend go to Galveston every summer for a week. The previous condo we used to stay in in the same building was sold so we had to find a new condo - and this was definitely the one!Location is optimal because the beach is never crowded. The amenities in this building (The Galvestonian) are unmatched by any other. The pool, hot tub and deck are amazing and there are large wagons available to take all your gear to the beach. This unit is on the 5th floor so the view is incredible.The unit itself is well equipped with a Keurig, regular coffee pot, beach towels (2, that you can change out at the front desk), adjustable split king bed, dishwasher (and pods), a well-stocked kitchen and even dish soap.The balcony has two tall adirondack chairs and a small table.The property group is responsive and professional. We will definitely be back!

Anniversary Escape

The room and view were immaculate, at the last minute we decided to add two days to our trip and there were no issues. The only reason we did not give 5 stars had nothing to do with the owner Trixie, however the condo was having lots of issues. We arrived on Tuesday the 17th and unloaded our luggage. The parking by the entry was under Renovation and blocked off. So we parked below in covered parking which would be great however the service elevator was out of order, and stairs had to be used to get to the lobby. My wife having just had surgery can’t climb stairs so I would go down stairs to get the car and drive up the ramp to get my wife at the lobby door. The condo has 3 elevators but only one was operational the entire visit. The lobby level parking lot was finally finished Sunday the 22nd. The other issue was that one of the elevators that did not work was the only one that went to ground level so a pretty good flight of stairs by the pool was the only access to the beach. No handicap access. The painters were painting the exterior and up and down outside windows on scaffolding but I understand the property has to be maintained.we will go back but we know what questions to ask prior.

Gulf Coast Condo

Property is very well maintained with beach front access and great view of the gulf from the balcony. Listing was very clean, smartly decorated for the small size of the condo. Defininately at two person only accomodation. Condos are somewhat outdated but well maintained. Lots of rules and the property staff is not attentive to open infractions though! Overall, one of the better places we have ever stayed in Galveston. Private feeling beach that is not crowded at all...

We had a wonderful stay at the condo. This property type was a new one for us and so was the east end of the island. The view was amazing, had wonderful morning coffees on the balcony and great walks on the beach, which was very easy to access. The condo was well supplied, and exactly what we needed.

Great location and nice condo

The condo is very clean and generally well kept. Location is great. Wonderful views and easy drive to restaurants. Staff at front desk were friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again. Minor quibbles: Keurig was not as pictured, and the one on hand did not work properly. I had to hold it shut with both hands to make sure the water went through the pod. Also, if you plan to enjoy some wine, bring your own corkscrew. The one in the condo is pretty useless. Finally, I could not get the DW to start. The lights came on, but nothing happened when I pressed start and closed the door. Ended up hand washing the dishes, which actually was ok since we only used a few things. Again, these are all minor annoyances.

Nice place for the weekend....But

Lobby and staff were very pleasant. Condo was nice but really outdated. Shower door took some muscles to open and close. Shower needs to be updated really bad. Door knob to master fell off when trying to get out of room. Would recommend putting shades in the living area to block early sunlight. Other than that, I would recommend staying there. Didnt use the pool or facilities, so cannot comment on that.

Tight quarters but just enough room

This was our first visit. We usually stay at the San Luis but wanted to try something different. For context, we are both 69. We absolutely loved the location and the facility was very nice. We were guests from Monday to Saturday. Our goal was to get in a lot of beach time and Mother Nature cooperated with beautiful sunny days each day. Our only issue, and it turned out to be a big one, is that we are too old and out of shape to pull the free property supplied Beach wagons loaded with our stuff across the sand. We ended up pulling it ourselves, but frankly, we got dangerously overheated and almost stroked out 😳 The last day we just couldn’t do it and got a young man from the group next to us to pull our wagon up to the condo. We tried to get somebody from the condo to do it and offered to pay, but nobody was available. So the lesson is, rent the umbrellas and chairs and travel light 😉. Or bring your own muscle 😊. Overall, beautiful, well maintained facility and great location. We plan on coming back.
