This was a great condo for our family to stay for Spring Break. It was a very comfortable space for us. The amenities on site were perfect for our 2 and 5 year old boys. They loved the indoor pool (wonderful option given the cold snap during our time in Galveston), the kids club, and all the toys and books in the condo unit itself. The location is so accessible to the fun sights of Galveston like Moody Gardens and The Strand. And our one warmer day, quick access to the beach was so appreciated. The owner was very prompt and helpful with information during our stay. I recommend this spot for anyone looking for a family friendly place to stay in Galveston!

We enjoyed our stay at Rachael's place. It is just as nice as it looks in the photos, super convenient near the elevators, concierge, indoor pool, and kids' playroom. Rachael was very nice and easy to communicate with. We had a fun, relaxing time!

This was our first time visiting Galveston. We were traveling (from WI) with our 10yr old son and needed to make sure we were in a place that fit all of his needs! This place hit the mark!! First, the condo. It was easy to find with the directions that were given. Check-in was a breeze, there is underground secure parking and the complex was beautiful. This particular condo was beautifully decorated and the view from the patio was gorgeous and perfect for our needs as a family of 3. Second, the host was readily available and answered a couple of questions that we had almost immediately! She was fourth coming with an issue with one of the blinds that was broken and offered to have it fixed right away, if we wanted her to. I would definitely feel comfortable booking from her again, if we decide to go back to Galveston.Thirdly, the grounds of the complex were beautiful! It was always immaculate. The pools were beautiful and my son loved the lazy river!! The game room was a huge hit for him as well. Though the walk to get to the beach is a little bit of a hike, it is worth it! The views were beautiful and the beach was perfect. If you are looking for a great place, this is the one!!
