Lovely 2br condo right on the water on the quiet part of the island. Beautiful sunrise each morning and a walk on the beach was a great way to start each day! Check-in process was a breeze and the property mgmnt folks (Ryson) were great when we asked about a later check-out due to our departure flight being delayed.
The only nit is the lack of convenience amenities like bathroom soap (small bars), shampoo (none), etc. However, would certainly stay there again!
Thanks!

Condo was clean and comfortable. The only complaint is that the primary bedroom bed was lumpy and uncomfortable.

This place was so lovely! Had everything we could want, from comfortable beds, to a nicely stocked kitchen (we cooked some meals in the condo) Of course, the view was amazing, and for some reason, we got lucky enough to have the blue/green water that you rarely see in Galveston! The only thing I would recommend is getting a rectangular table that will actually seat more than 4 people. Especially since our group was 5.

Our room was great! There was a great view and the room was spacious and perfect for a family of 4! Everything was very cleaned when we arrived. The Galvestonian was a great establishment, the pool and hot tub were very nice. All of the employees were very professional. The private beach area was perfect and very quiet. We loved everything about our stay!!

My family makes the pilgrimage to Galveston Island every year and we always stay at the Galvestonian. This year we stayed in room 1002 offered by Ryson Vacation Rentals and we could not have had a better time. First off, I requested an early checkin time and they personally texted me when the room was ready. Also, on our departure, we accidentally left one of our phones and they texted us about finding such phone and we were able to go back and get it. What a great group to rent from and work with. My hat is off to the company Ryson Vacation Rentals.

The mattress in the master bedroom was the most uncomfortable mattress I have ever slept on. I ended up sleeping on the twin mattress in the spare bedroom with my 5 year old. My husband ended up sleeping on the mattress and left with sore legs,neck, and hips!

After having to postpone a cousin's getaway 3 years ago, we were able to experience a recharge, a reconnection and enjoy the sand, sounds of East Beach. It was quiet and peaceful 3 day stay. The condo was a perfect place and gave us breathtaking views of the Gulf and place to unwind.

This property was exactly as we had hoped. It was clean and quiet! The beach was closer than we expected. The pool and hot tub were a must with the windy week we visited. Hope to be back again!

I did a lot of research on a condo in Galveston. I did not want to stay in the "SeaWall" area which is where restaurants, hotels, etc are located. In the SeaWall area you have to walk across 5 lanes of traffic to get to the beach. Also it is very noisy. This condo is in the "beachtown" area where you can take an elevator down, walk outside and the beach is right there. The condo was super clean and spacious. The only downside is the condo does not have a washer & dryer and the condo complex only lets residents (not temporary guests) use their onsite washer & dryers. Other than that it was perfect. The complex is beautiful and I will keep an eye out for the possibility of buying a unit.

Everything was fine until our last day. The TV’s in both bedrooms quit working. No one resolved the problem. Maintenance man called the cable company and was told it was an owners issue. Something had not been paid for. My wife has sleet issues and she needs the Tv on to sleep. Needless to say it was not a good night. I think we deserve some kind of credit for our last night

Wonderful!
This property was amazing! We did a girls trip and had so much fun! Only major recommendation that I wish I would have know was that anything you want to rent for the beach needs to be rented the day before! The condo did provide some beach chairs! Will definitely be coming back!!

Great property!
This is a great property! It had amazing views (beach side from the 10th floor), cold AC, and comfortable beds. It was stocked well, and we were pleased to see that there were floor to ceiling shades to shield us from the morning light until we were ready to get up. The Galvestonian has a nice pool, friendly staff, and you can’t beat the proximity to East beach. The property has wagons for the beach which were very handy, and parking was a breeze. Very close to all things Galveston while being able to stay beach side! We’ll be back!

Extremely convenient and responsive manager. Pictures and listing match reality, which is always appreciated. Nice pool, great access to the beach, convenient beach chairs with umbrellas. The beach is very clean! Awesome walks, loved to hang out on the balcony and just enjoy the place. The appliances could be updated and the tiled floor can make it noisy from the floor above, but overall great value.

The Galvestonian is awesome. We’ve stayed in several units here and love coming back. The pool area & grounds are beautiful. Staff is friendly and helpful. The security is excellent.
This particular unit was very quite nice with 2 exceptions. The Gulf view from the bedroom is gorgeous but you better be ready to get up at sunrise. With no blinds, drapes or shades in the bedroom, the sun blares in all day…it’s blinding & hot.
Most importantly, several previous reviews have mentioned the guest bath shower being dangerous because it’s as slick as oiled glass. Seriously someone is going to slip down and really get hurt. We almost did. Still, Ryson continues to not fix the problem. At least there were tub appliqués in the master bath.
Sad that Ryson obviously doesn’t care about their renters warnings.

The condo is so nice with beautiful views. Spacious, comfortable living area and master bedroom... Easy walk to pool and beach ( from condo). The Galvestonian has all the extras: carts for beach stuff, all the stuff to grill, and towels for free, umbrellas to rent...beautiful pool with umbrellas...we woke up every day loving our beach view and spot.

The condo was clean, decorated cute, and we loved the view. The only thing that was needed was rubber mats for the tubs. They were dangerously slippery. We also had only two washcloths in each bathroom.

The only issue I can see is the visitor policy should be more prominently explained as they are not allowed on the property except in the room.
Otherwise just fine.

Great location on the beach without the seawall in front of you beautiful grounds including weber grills and picnic areas you can reserve. The pool is excellent.

We stay at The Galvestonian every year and this is by far the one property I would never recommend. It has cracks all in the floor and there are no blinds in the master bedroom or in the living room. So why I understand they don’t want to obscure the view it is extremely bright with nothing to block out the sun… And when you have a two year old staying in a pack and play with you it is less than ideal for a family vacation! We had issues with the toilet seat and reported it to Ryson vacation rental along with the fan in the master suite and they said they would fix it and they did nothing. If you go through Ryson you don’t get your room cleaned and no extra towels. There’s also no mesh on the guard rails like most units and my son could fit through. The amenities in this condo are also very sparse unlike the others that are updated. I would never book another vacation through Ryson. The owners need to advertise this condo is not ideal for families with small children and please get some shades!
