Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1907
We are a retired couple living in Pennsyvania near Pittsburgh, GO STEELERS! We went to Galveston 2 years ago and fell in love with it. We really reviewed all the condos before we bought and definitely decided Maravilla Resort was the best on the island. Liked it so much, we bought 2! Its a family atmosphere, the last condo on the Seawall going West. Close to "beach access" (much better that public beaches near 61st) You will love Galveston and love our condo. I really took time to decorate and buy furniture to make is as comfortable and homey as I could. I have gotten many compliments on the decor....
Why the Owner Chose Galveston
I loved the atmosphere the first time I walked around Maravilla. Everyone is so friendly. All the condos are privately owned, most people live there and only some rent out to guests. I think that is why it is so quiet and everyone is so friedly. I hated staying up by 61st, in all the hubub and noise. Our end of Seawall is so so much better...
The Unique Benefits of this Condo
My favorite thing to do is sit on balcony and watch the Pelicans. The "KINGS" of the island hang out on the tall condo building next door to us and at sundown they fly around it and glide on the breeze from the ocean. Its like they are putting on a show just for me. I have binoculars there for your use to get a good close up of these majestic creatures. I pride myself on having the condo well stocked for my quests so they have a wonderful experience and want to come back and have had several return again and again! Infact, I have gotten to know so much about them from our emails, they seem like old friends! And, since I love making new friends, come stay at Maravilla, you won't be disappointed!
