We loved Gayle’s place- the pictures don’t do it justice! Great location as it’s equal distance from lazy river and beach club. All are walkable but would highly recommend a golf cart!

Thank you so much for such a nice review. We’re happy you and your family enjoyed your stay and hope you come back!
Conveniently located condo, near the bay and beautiful beaches of San Luis Pass! Will definitely stay again! The condo was equipped with everything we needed and host was very accommodating!
Thank you!
We enjoyed our stay at Buddy's! It was more spacious than what I imagined for us (6 adults, 1 toddler) and the location was great. Far enough to relax but not too far of a drive to explore the rest of Galveston! Sunsets were beautiful during our stay! Would definitely recommend!

Thank you for such a nice review and for takingc such good care of my condo. So happy you enjoyed your stay.
Clean and everything you need to relax at the beach. It is a nice property that worked well for my family of five and the family dog. The pools were nice, and it was a bit of a walk to the beach. But once at the beach, there is a nice uncrowded family beach to enjoy.
We really enjoyed the stay. The condo is very clean , well furnished, and has almost everything we need. We loved the private beach and club house too. We wish the condo could provide baking sheet. Overall we have had a great time.

Thank you so much for your nice review and For taking such good care of my condo. I wanted to let you know there is a baking sheet along with a broiler pan in the pull out drawer under the oven. I’m always available if my guest have any questions or need help locating items. Next time don’t hesitate to contact me.
Everything was as expected!
Enough room for 2 families, great location, amenities at the resort were perfect! You never have to leave the resort if you don’t want to! It has it all. :)
We will stay here again the next time we come to Galveston!!!
First time further down the sea wall. Escape the crowds at the sea wall and enjoy both beach and bay access with 2 pools lazy river and incredible sunsets enjoyed while eating somores from the fire pit. Added benefit was kayak availability, bay fishing, rental bicycles available at beach club.
My only complaint was that the pool was so cold. Couldn’t use the pool as the water heater was broke. That was a bummer!

The pool has never been heated in the past. This is the first year the board decided to refurbish and heat the lazy river pool. Unfortunately the new heater was destroyed during the ice storm in February and has been on back order. I am sorry that it was cold but I do not have any control over this and I did not relate to you that it would be heated. Unfortunately the weather in Galveston can still be a bit chilly in April. I hope you come back sometime when the pool is a bit warmer. I'm glad you enjoyed the beach.
We had an awesome weekend. The condo was great and just what we expected from the photos. When we arrived everything was ready for us so we could unpack and then head to the beach and the pool. Gayle (the owner) made us feel feel very "at home" and left us several little extras for the kids. She was very helpful with new pool rules and hours due to the coronavirus. The condo was clean and well decorated. We had plenty of towels and everything was worked. It was very nice having an assigned parking space right across from the elevator. The big inter-tubes in the storage locker were a big hit with kids going to the lazy river pool. We were also able to store our fully loaded beach wagon and fishing poles in the locker each night. This was a very fun family beach weekend to celebrate our grandson turning 3. All eight of us (5 adults and 3 kids ) had a wonderful time.

So glad you had such a good time. Happy belated birthday to your little grandson and thank you for such a nice review. I hope you come back!You are a wonderful family..
Great Condo with wonderful views of the bay and all the amenities one would desire.. Great for bird watching Property owners were great as well. We will definitely visit again!
Great condo with great view! Owner Gayle answered every question via text promptly. If u want to be away from the hustle and bustle of Galveston seawall this is the place. Just know it’s a long way from most restaurants and stores. Other than that it’s perfect!!
My husband and I are retired military and live in Atlanta. Our youngest son, wife and Twin three year old sons live near Houston. We were thrilled to spend time with them at the beach. The condo was so nice. The view of the bay was beautiful. The beach and Lazy pool were a hit for the twins. The whole experience was delightful.
Clean condo with surrounded by many outdoor activities for kids. We took our scooters for even faster travel between the pools and restaurants. Owner was super informative and helpful. This is a perfect spot for a family vacation.
Great location and unit away from busy Seawell/Strand area. Loved the pools and beach club. Unit was stocked with tons of great beach/pool gear and also had great view of the bay and local birds. Can’t wait to come back!
This property is exactly as presented and was an awesome place to spend time relaxing in comfort! Pointe West is where all the kids want to return over and over.
Fabulous weekend; lots of wonderful memories; “icing on the cake” was the beautiful condo and Pointe West facility!
Oh! Beach was awesome! It wasn’t the white sandy beach or clear water of Florida but it was one of the highlights of the trip!
Thanks to Gayle, the owner, for the opportunity to have this special celebration in a special environment!
