We typically stay at Pointe West or the Galvestonian so that’s what I’m comparing this place to. The building/pool doesn’t even come close to those. The pool at this condo is very small, faces the parking lot, honestly it’s kinda sad and my kids didn’t even want to get in it (although, it IS heated and we visited in December so that’s worth something). There isn’t a hot tub. The building is old, the lobby is tiny and not the least bit impressive, but it was clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. The condo itself was clean and nicely decorated. The owner has squeezed as much counter space, storage and as many hooks as she possibly could into this place and I love and appreciate that! There were beach chairs, towels and toys available, we loved that too. The walk out to the beach and the views from the balconies couldn’t be beat. My only complaints/suggestions would be the coffee maker, which was old and cheap. People on vacation appreciate a good coffee maker. We did appreciate the coffee that was provided though. My biggest complaint was the mattress pad on the master bed. It absorbs body heat which made me feel like a pork butt in a slow cooker all night. I was tossing and turning trying to find a cool spot (there wasn’t one) and this was in December. I can’t imagine sleeping on that in August. But with that said, others said they loved the beds and slept great, so maybe it’s just us mature women or anyone with a thyroid issue who are affected, who knows. Other than those issues, again, this place is a solid 4 stars for me. If you like all the accommodations, pool, hot tub, etc. or need 2 bathrooms, this place will leave you disappointed. But if you just want to hang in the beach and enjoy a great location, a little more budget friendly, I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here.

Friendly, clean, Convenient and a perfect view ! Work required a bit more of my time and effort so this stay I used as a get a way ! So worth it !

This was such a cozy and quiet place. We loved the beach location also.

clean, amazing location, great communication with owner, clean, 100% recommend this property!

This is a terrific furnished condo on East Beach, no crossing the seawall. Everything you might need is here, including a dehumidifier which works great, lots of beach towels, hooks to hang up your hat, luggage racks, plenty of storage, very nice bathroom fixtures. Will definitely stay at this Islander East condo again!

Beautiful view of the ocean! Location was great and loved being right on the beach!

Great property for couple or small family. Location on East end is ideal for getting around. Direct beach access and lots of restaurants nearby. Would stay again.

Great location, quiet area of Galveston. Comfortable condo with all the amenities we needed.

Very nice condo, quiet area, not too crowded, friendly staff, just wish there were more things to do with smaller children, kind of humid in the condo though even with the dehumidifier. Overall we had a great stay and our kiddos had a blast

This property, hands down, is the BEST location for staying right on the beach. It is located directly on the beachfront, so there’s no crossing a busy street or sharing your space with the rest of the public. This was the perfect property for our vacation!

So much is provided to have a great time at this place!

Very nice place. Great view of the Gulf.

No longer will we stay on the Seawall! This place was great sitting on the very private part of city beach or watching the sun set from the balcony sipping on wine and enjoying life! We will be back!

Excellent property for a Galveston get away. Quiet, comfortable, and well appointed condo with beautiful view of beach as well as close to many things to do. Owner quickly responds to any questions.

My family had a wonderful day! The owner was so easy to work with and response. Very clean property.

Location is ideal for a chill and relaxed time. Beach is not populated with people. If you are looking for a relaxed time this will be the place.

I have been to Galveston a dozen times, but never been to this part of the island. It is quieter over there and this was a great place for our young family to come and stay with easy access to the beach.

We really loved our holiday weekend here! The location is right on the beach and the condo itself was exactly as described. We will be making this our normal “get away” place from now on. Also, Mary, the owner, was just as nice as could be! See you again soon!

Great value getaway. Right on the beach and quiet area.

Beautiful view of the gulf, private beach access, great location in Galveston not far from Pleasure Pier / The Strand. Family games and lots of beach accessories making it easy for a quick trip to the beach. Clean condo and well-stocked kitchen. Check-in staff is friendly and helpful.

Everything was really great.. Front desk was great. We had everything we needed in the condo. We loved the fact that it was easy access to the beach and very quite. I was perfect weather. Beautiful inside condo.

Wife and Kids loved it.

The condo was great! Wonderful views! Had a great time!!

Great beachfront location on Galveston's "quiet side." Due to school starting, we had almost the whole beach to ourselves. Flat beach to very good for daily walks.
