The beach view was stellar. Quiet, clean, peaceful and just what we hoped for compared to the busy strand and sea wall areas. Accommodations were perfect. Kitchen very well equipped with quality items. Loved the pool and hot tub that were perfect temps. What a lovely spot in Galveston. Would not hesitate to return and go to this exact same location and unit.
