Hi, David
Just returned last night from Galveston and had to let you know what a lovely condo you have. . . there was not a thing we needed that was not there, the decor was so very attractive, location just right - that end of the Island is very good place to be.
We did the ferry to Port Bolivar, Paddle wheeler trip, museum downtown as well as oil rig museum, trip to Penguin Island, old mansions (Moody was favorite), drove further west and ate at Richard's restaurant in Sea Isle on the marina - TWICE. Used the pocket beaches to good advantage. . . kept going to a different spot each day! Weather was tremendous. . . foggy early but burned off by 9 a.m. Sat on seawall and watched the surfers, went out on fishing pier. . . enjoyed eating at The Spot!
We have stayed in condos on Hilton Head Island, Lake Tahoe - yours was the nicest. . . will miss your television. . . guess we will take a trip to our local television sales store!
Thanks again for everything. By the way, the rental office was great, too.
We arrived on Monday afternoon and went there in case they could rent to us one day early. . . gave us an hour for the housekeepers to finish and we were in. And, the pool is lovely!
Hope to be back. . . Don and Donna Williams in Indiana.

My family and I loved this condo. It was a great place to hang at the pool and unwind after a busy day. It sleeps 5 adults and 2 small kids comfortably. We loved the kitchen and balcony area. Dave was great to work with. He was quick to get back to you, fairly priced and detailed with his instructions. We had a great experience in Galveston! Thanks Dave to you and your wife!!!

Dave, Hi, thank you! Your place was wonderful. Very relaxing, clean, and very quiet. My family loved it. The property was amazing.The pools were refreshing and very spacious. Although they had construction going on we never had issues and most of all never heard a sound. Very pleasant. We have enjoyed the beaches very much. Shopping was great; the seawall was wonderful; and the weather was warm but awesome. Things we did with the children ages 11,16,16,16; we visited Schlitterban Waterpark, went to the GREATEST Cafe' " Rainforest Cafe' " Absolutely amazing. We took a day and rode a few minutes down the road and visited The NASA Space Center in Houston, which the whole family enjoyed very much. Then off to the Kemah BoardWalk all with in a couple of miles from each other. I can say this, we will certainly be back. This was one of the most wonderful getaways we have had. So thank you so much for opening your vacation home to my family and I. Thank you, Shirley S & Family

Yes you can use my comments. Not a problem. Your condo was great. The seawall across the street was great for fishing. There wasn't too much noise or traffic which was great, The pool and grilling area was very nice and our teenage girls loved it. Everything worked nicely and the staff was friendly as well. The only issue was the back elevator and that is not your fault. Your condo was great and it made our stay in Galveston very relaxing. Thank You, Brenda R

Dear Dave & Pam: my family and I truly enjoyed our stay at the Maravilla. Our unit was exactly as depicted on the website -- gorgeous, well maintained and immaculate. The view of the ocean from both the bedroom and living room balcony was euphoric to say the least. We were in close proximity to retail stores and restaurants -- which we really appreciated. Dave and Pam's place is definitely the place to stay if you are planning a lengthy vacation or a few days of get-a-way. Thanks again Dave and Pam!! We felt "right at home" Lillian

Me and my boys went for Mardi Gras and had a blast. The owner is so easy to work with, the condo is Beautiful with ocean & lake views. Big terrace, very comfortable, TV's in both bedrooms and Big one with surround sound in Livingroom. In the summer you would have great shade on the Large balcony. I have been to alot of Nice places but for a Galveston get away this cannot be beat. Really well kept just like it says. Thanks for a great place to stay!

The Condo itself was very nice... the rest of the property was ok.... We would have rather have direct beach access...there are rocks across from this condo. The 3 ft. pool was excellent for the children! The property had 3 pools and we never felt crowded.
