"By the Sea" had everything you would need for a family getaway. The staff on the front desk were helpful and genuinely interested in the guests. Both beds and bathrooms were great. The beach is just across the road, well kept and free from litter. Restaurants for all tastes. We enjoyed a drone light show in the center of Galveston on Labor Day. Although the weather was very wet we enjoyed the clouds and the rainbows that it produced. especially from the 7th floor. Took some great pictures ,we all had a great time.

Average property. Return air vent in guest bathroom was rusty. Couch and loveseat in living room worn and not real comfortable. Low water pressure in bathrooms.

Easy access to the beach, seemed to be less crowded than other places.
AC had a hard time keeping up but ceiling fans helped out with that.

Beautiful view in a perfect location!
We love to visit Galveston and this was our first time at this unit. Check in was so easy! The unit was clean and easy to access. The view is even better in person. Lots of space with a real home like feel. The front desk staff were very friendly and clear about any expectations. The property was clean and well taken care of. The beds were so comfy too! We loved that trash pick up was right outside the door twice a day. The walk to the beach took seconds it was amazing. The washer and dryers were on the first floor but very easy to use with an app on your phone and credit card. Thank you for sharing your home with my family.

Loved the location, but…
The location was amazing, but the elevator rarely worked and hiking up 7 flights of stairs did physically impact some of our party. The air conditioner in our unit was not up to par, the unit was relatively warm. The owner of the unit was awesome though. The front desk personell were amazing
