About this property
Lazy Daze - 3 Bed Condo Beach Front w/Pool
Gorgeous 10th-Floor Condo with Incredible Water Views!
Welcome to your Galveston getaway! The owners have completely transformed this gorgeous 3-bedroom, 2-bath condo on the 10th floor of By the Sea, with two balconies and amazing east-to-west views. Watch the water meet the sky from this bright, airy, beautifully updated retreat!
From the moment you enter, you'll feel at home. The welcoming entryway features a table perfect for dropping your keys, organizing your belongings, or setting up a small workstation.
THE SPACE
Just beyond the entryway is the dining area, perfect for meals, family game night, or gathering with friends. You'll also find a convenient dry bar stocked with drinking glasses and a corkscrew.
Don't miss the fun Sputnik-inspired light fixture!
Across the hall is the spacious primary bedroom, and just steps away is the well-appointed kitchen with full-size refrigerator, range, dishwasher and microwave. Whether you want to cook at home or dine your way through Galveston's incredible restaurants, you'll have what you need.
PRIMARY BEDROOM
The relaxing primary suite is the perfect place to unwind after a day at the beach, pool, The Strand, shopping, museums, or exploring Galveston's history — or after doing absolutely nothing all day!
The bedroom features a king-size bed and smart TV and is separated from the other two bedrooms for added privacy.
The ensuite bathroom includes a low-step, doorless shower with grab bar and a separate water closet. The bathroom was thoughtfully modified to reduce barriers and improve accessibility.
LIVING ROOM
Step from the kitchen into the comfortable living room, featuring plenty of seating, a flat-panel smart TV, and access to the large balcony shared with the second bedroom. A sleeper sofa provides additional sleeping space. Sheets and pillows are located in the bedroom closet.
TWO ADDITIONAL BEDROOMS
Down the hall are two additional bedrooms, each with a queen-size bed. The first bedroom shares balcony access with the living room. The bedroom at the end of the hall has its own private balcony. Across the hall is the beautifully updated second full bathroom with a tub/shower combination.
UPDATES YOU MAY NOT SEE — BUT WILL APPRECIATE
The owners have made extensive improvements focused on comfort, accessibility, air quality and water quality.
Accessibility & Safety: • Walls were removed to create a more open living space. • Primary bathroom modified to reduce barriers. • Pocket doors added. • Small-curb, doorless shower installed. • Extra-long grab bars added in both bathrooms.
Whole-Home Water Filtration:
A 4-stage whole-house water filtration system with salt-free water softener provides improved-tasting, better-smelling water that is gentler on skin and hair. The system includes sediment filtration, KDF media, catalytic carbon filtration, and a final stage designed to eliminate channeling and increase contact time.
Air Quality:
All air ducts were replaced and internal HVAC grilles were removed and cleaned. Air is filtered through an electrostatically charged air-cleaner filter designed to reduce allergens and improve indoor air quality.
GREAT FOR FAMILIES & GROUPS
Visiting Galveston for a cheer, dance, sports tournament, conference, wedding, reunion, festival, home tour, or other event? Why squeeze into a tiny hotel room when your group can stay in comfortable condos and enjoy "together time" at the pools, hot tubs and other shared amenities? The condo is approximately 5 blocks from a major big-box store, making it easy to pick up groceries, beverages, beach necessities, forgotten items or souvenirs.

Great view. Could have done without the road noise but still a great experience
Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2026
Response from VrboOwner on Mar 13, 2026
I certainly know that there can be road noise when outside of the condo as the condo is on Seawall Boulevard - but that view? It's worth the noise, and with the $30,000 investment that the owner put into the sliding doors that block all the noise while you are inside - I think the trade-off of view is worth it and glad you enjoyed your stay.
Everything was great! View was incredible. Place was clean and as advertised. Would stay again.

The whole process from beginning to end and the communication with Manager was easy. The building staff was very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay very much!
I liked the location on the Seawall, close to things we wanted to see and do. The balcony view awesome. Unit was very clean, we had zero issues, check-in was super easy. We look forward to staying here again.
We've stay at this building before. Like the view and location to everything. Great place to stay. Watched the dolphins from our balcony a couple of mornings. Good value for our money.
Very roomy and laid out nicely. The huge amount of balcony was great! Especially enjoyed waking up to see the water without getting out of bed. Get up early, the sunrise is glorious!!
Overall really great condo. Could be cleaner, mattresses could certainly be better and condo could benefit from a little TLC. But offers amazing view, location is prime and host/manager is fantastic and very accommodating.

We know you will be thrilled on your next visit as the condo has been 100% remodeled since your most recent stay- you probably woudn't recognize it. Check it out in the listing and Come Stay With Us again soon.
We enjoyed a weekend stay at this amazing place before heading out on our cruise! Great views of the ocean and everything was absolutely perfect! Highly recommend and it is reasonably priced. Thank you to our host for making this a very seamless process. Will stay here again! 😁
We had a great time. The beds were comfortable. Everything was clean and easy to use. Only complaint was having to plug everything in when we got there…lamps and wifi.
It was great time at the lone star rally. Great view from the condo.
It does get hot with the sun coming through the windows and the AC doesn’t keep up very well. Other then that it was great place to stay.

We enjoyed being able to look over the water. And watching the ships lining up at night to go to the Houston ship channel was fun. My mom has mobility issues and this was the perfect place to stay for her. Great location that made going to get food easy.
The staff at by the Sea condominiums were absolutely wonderful. It was fun trying to remember how to use the old microwave, which worked great. It was a good trip.

We had a great stay. The property is as described in the listing. It is comfortable for a large family or two small families with room to spread out. The kitchen is well appointed with multiple coffee machines including a Keurig. The views of the gulf and beach from the living area and two smaller bedrooms are great, and the large balcony makes the stay. The property and parking area are well maintained. The check-in and check-out process was seamless and the management is very communicative. Highly recommended.
This was a girls/moms weekend with friends coming from across the country. Donna was beyond fabulous with not only communication but with service! We had a couple hic ups, (doesn’t all travel?) the communication was amazing and allowed us to spend our trip without any problems. This location is right on the beach, had room for everyone and was super clean. 100% recommend!!!!!
