Galveston Condo w/ Oceanfront Views & 2 Pools

Reviews

• Condo has potential

  3/5

  But the review about the sock under the rug - that sock was there when we were there too (end of September/beginning October), as was the stained bedding. There were also clothes in the dresser drawers in the bedroom. The outdoor chairs on the balcony were very weathered and the fabric was crumbling. Some cosmetic things could be addressed as well (missing plank in the bathroom, missing knob on the cabinet, etc.), but the condo is cute and worked for our trip. The beach was across the street and the view from the balcony is a fantastic setting sun view! But the horrifying thing was the black mold around the HVAC vent and ceiling near it! In the hosts' defense, there is a note on the fridge that asks to contact them if there's an issue but we didn't have time - our itinerary was busy. There also is an ice machine available but no ice bucket - we ran to the dollar store and got a small plastic trash can that worked better than the bowls there but this should be a given if an ice machine is available.

• Great “Beach Front” stay

  5/5

  While not directly on the beach, the view from the balcony was beautiful. Not only was it a great view but the condo was cozy and clean. Overall a great stay.

  Over all condo was decent. Disappointed with somethings, bedroom set up different or backwards I guess, furniture covers stained,dirty, found previous tenant dirty sock under living room rug, and no cable or digital antenna to watch local news.

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Billy, we’ve shared your feedback with the homeowner, who would like to respond as follows:
  
  -We sincerely apologize for the stained furniture covers. As part of our commitment to maintaining a high standard, we perform a biannual deep cleaning, and all the covers were replaced with new ones the day after your stay.
  
  -While you were in regular contact with the local manager, this concern wasn’t brought to our attention at the time. Had we been notified, we would have been more than happy to address the issue and replace the covers promptly to ensure your comfort during your stay.
  
  -There are two smart TVs in the unit, which rely on internet rather than cable service. However, free streaming services are available, including options for live TV. The manager would have been happy to assist with accessing these services if needed.
  
  -We always strive to make your stay as enjoyable as possible and assist in any way we can. As an example, when you left a flashlight behind, the manager made a special trip to the unit to retrieve it for you.
  
  Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We value your feedback and look forward to welcoming you back in the future, aiming to exceed your expectations.

  Went on a cruise and wanted to drive down early and found this

  place and ABSOLUTELY enjoyed our stay. The bed was comfortable and the stay was peaceful. Will definitely be renting from here again.
