Do not recommend

My family and I have been going to Point West for over 10 years now. We have stayed in beachfront condos as well as the bayside. Unfortunately, this condo was not up to our standards. It was dirty…from the pots, pans, cutlery, showers, bedding. The blinds throughout the condo could were broken which made it tough to open them and see the bay or the beach. Our favorite part was the back patio. Please note that that there is not a glass top on the coffee table and it was not stable enough for drinks. We did appreciate being able to check-in early and check-out late due to it being the off season.

Summer 2023

The location is far from any of the main Galveston attractions and restaurants so that is challenge. However once you are there, it is right next to the lazy river which the kids loved. One of my kids also loved the bunk beds. The place was nice and clean, but it seems the rentals are taken its toll on the place. One of the kitchen cabinets was not closing correctly, the refrigerator door seemed that it could break at any point, the light in the main room will flash every five minutes. The AC in the main room was not designed right. It was hot compared to the other rooms. Also, there is a broken spindle in the balcony which is a safety hazard if you have kids specially being in the third floor. We had to blocked that section to prevent the kids from getting there. Overall, we enjoyed the visit, but it sure can use improvements to make our stay better.

Overall it was a good stay. This was the first time for our families to gather at the west end of the island for vacay. The place and location of unit is nice next to lazy river pool area and good bay side views. Our unit had the best patio/balcony furnishings! Have to cart or drive to main club as is a long hike. The store owner at club is supper awesome and makes good items! The not so good was the managing of the condo. They do not keep up with some maintenance items and 3 we’re security and safety hazard issues for renters. Two were addressed, but fire hazard from dryer vent was not that had not been cleaned out and set off alarm. They were informed of all 3 safety issues. Thank goodness that most was ok in condo; however, I don’t know how they “were not aware” of issues as they threaten you to take pics and notify them upon arrival of any issues. Also they apparently can’t follow their own instructions with written requests as documented for late check-out. The cleaning staff is rude and basically so is the management company. I paid money and followed all emails that had been sent. It made for a more stressful experience than necessary. Sad that owner may not be aware of the management company shortcomings. Overall it’s a good value for the money.

Gorgeous views, well stocked condo, better like stairs!

This was a wonderful getaway and the condo is tucked away at the west end of Galveston with gorgeous views of the bay and a huge patio to enjoy the sunsets. It is well equipped and had everything we needed in the kitchen (pots, pans, etc). Plenty of room and the AC works very well (very important during Galveston summers)! One key thing to note about this condo however -- if you have anyone with mobility issues (small kids, pets, older family members) you should probably consider a different location. This condo is on the top floor (3 flights of stairs from parking) and other than the morning we moved in, the elevator did not work during our stay. Seems to be a recurring issue at this location based on other reviews. This created a hardship for our older dog and made move out slow, sweaty, and difficult. We called in the issue the morning of our first full day on the island but the elevator still wasn't operating properly on our final day. This isn't the property management or owner issue -- this is West Pointe resorts management issue that is creating difficulty for the owners and occupants of this building. Elevator aside we thoroughly enjoyed our time here and the short walk to the lazy river/pool!

Disappointing and will not rent from Coastal Wave Vacation again.

The property management company Coastal Waves was not forthcoming about the closure of the Pointe West amenities which we depend on. The restaurant and bar were closed and had been closed for months due to freeze damage and they didn’t tell us. The location of pointe west is 20 miles from a major grocery store. The property had no hand soap and post COVID is not acceptable due to safety and health concerns. Short term rentals must supply the basics to guest especially from a safety and health perspective. The information Coastal Waves sent us about the properties parking was inaccurate and inconvenienced us during the trip. The owner parked their ATV in the garage space where we were to park and we were forded to park elsewhere. Coastal Waves emails contained inaccurate information about the property as the band fee required to access the pools and gym increased from 15 to 25 usd and we were not informed ahead of time. The communications from coastal waves for vital information was received too late to cancel our trip. The door code to access the property was not working upon arrival. Checkin was not easy and seamless. There are other property issues like the flickering lights in the master and the thermostat were not able to maintain a comfortable temperature during the stay. Some dishes were unclean and they didn’t provide any dish soap or dishwasher soap for a 4 night stay, 2 pods is not enough when there was no way to wash dishes by hand.

The main reason for choosing this condo was its location and the balcony. Overlooks the family pool.

The condo was as advertised. Ample space for my family and me. Pretty much everything that you need was provided. However, the stay was tarnished when we were contacted the day before our checkout and was asked to not use the shower in the main bedroom due to a reported leak from the condo directly below. Of course we honored the request, but it was an inconvenience not being able to use the main shower. Regardless, neither the owner nor Coastal Waves offered any compensation for the inconvenience. Obviously it’s unfortunate that there was a plumbing issue, but that’s part of ownership, and honestly some form of compensation .. anything .. should have been offered without asking or hesitation. Additionally, a pillow was left behind that had sentimental value. I contacted Coastal Waves just hours after the cleaning crew probably left, but somehow the pillow just vanished and again, it just felt like they really weren’t that concerned or anxious to do whatever it took to locate the pillow. It is a shame because with exception to numerous broken/inoperable blinds, the condo really is nice. But when you pay the nightly rate that you do as well as the management and administrative fees on top of that, you expect matters such as these to be taken care of in a much better way.

A Superb Condo & Host

Everything was just as promised. It was a very cozy condo with wonderful coastal touches. We highly recommend this quiet and large 3-bedroom/3-bath. Best location in the resort, overlooking one of the pools and the bay. It has two living areas, great for tucking kids in one part of the house. :-) The host has a collection of games, TVs in every room, a decked out kitchen, complete with seasonings and beach tumblers. Wonderful pathways for jogging, walking and bike rentals. We highly recommend staying here.

Great place for all ages!

We love this location, and this particular condo was really nice with beautiful views of the Gulf and Bay! Th back patio has a really nice, comfortable set up for watching the sunsets. We were just a few minutes from the beach with easy access. (A wagon would be great to haul stuff along the boardwalk.) The pool area was also just outside our building, which made it convenient for grilling. The pool area is really nice for kids and adults. The only issue is the elevators are unreliable, so moving in was a bit of a workout getting everything up to the 3rd floor. Otherwise, everything was really nice. I would definitely rent this unit again.
