My family loves to cook and this kitchen was perfect! They had everything we needed to make several delicious meals. The large dining table on the balcony had an unobstructed view of the beach. We have no complaints and will definitely reserve this lovely condo again in the future.

Pools and hot tubs were nice and balcony view to beach is fantastic! We will definitely check availability here in the future! Kids loved the basketball goal and large hot tub.

Lovely Condo, views were amazing. We had great weather, but had problems with mosquitoes. Luckily we brought bug spray and there was some there. Loved the beach , pool, and especially the lazy river. Hope to stay there again.

We took our grown children and 2 grand babies. We had ages 2 through 57! Everyone had a great time. The condo and location is beautiful, better than the pictures. We ended up staying an extra night because no one wanted to leave! Thanks for an awesome experience!! ❤️

This was my first trip to the area and the community and condo were absolutely amazing! The secluded beaches were great and the condo was gorgeous! It had everything and more than we needed. I have never stayed at a property that was stocked with everything imaginable. The kitchen was a dream! The Pointe West neighborhood was beautiful. I can’t recommend this property enough!

We’ve been coming to Pointe West for several years and this condo was definitely one of the nicest! It appears to have been recently renovated and updated. The pictures don’t do it justice. It’s much nicer. We love it here because the beaches are always clean, it’s quiet and away from the hubbub. There is also an excellent restaurant and bar on the property. The name says it all, Almost Heaven!

Overall Nice Stay
We had a pleasant stay while in JoAn’s condo. We unfortunately had a poor check in process and were unable to reach the host to help. JoAn did get back with us and solved the problem, but it was not until the next day. We were a little disappointed on the cleanliness of the condo. There were long grey hairs on the couch when we arrived. Some of the dishes had dried food/leftovers on them. Both showers did not drain well and water would begin pooling at the bottom after only about 5 minutes. It was incredibly helpful to have a high chair and pack and play at the condo, though, for our little one. Also, of note the mosquitos were absolutely TERRIBLE! Our group had never experienced mosquitos like this before. For the first 3-4 days when we would leave the condo and walk to the beach we would be attacked by a swarm of mosquitoes. We had bug spray and that didn’t even help. There are citronella candles in the condo but there is no lighter available to be able to use the candles. This is not on the host by any means but just awareness! Also, we could not use any of the outlets on the patio as when we tried it did create a spark and we had to reset the breaker. Overall it was a nice stay, though. Thanks JoAn!
Incredibly comfortable beach apartment in beautiful Galveston
The apartment is extremely well equipped and stocked, clean, spacious and tasteful decorated and is situated in a quiet environment with the perks of a community house with pools and fitness room. Usually we can always detect one or more shortcomings in a house we rent, but with this apartment everything was perfect. Really liked that owners have created folders with all Handy information. We really loved our stay over there and hope we can come back some time.
This property was as advertised. The kitchen is very nice. The layout of the third floor condo was great. We had one issue which was quickly addressed by the owner and resolved. If we were to stay in the Galveston area we would stay here again.
The property was just as described and everything was great. As someone who cooks a lot when we travel I really appreciated the updated kitchen, nice appliances, and good cookware. We greatly enjoyed our stay and will try for this property again if we are ever back in the Galveston area.
Absolutely the best experience we’ve had at Pointe West. better than advertised !! We hope to rent at later date. Thank you JoAn and Mike for sharing this very special place. You have thought of everything.
We figured out the Almost Heaven. West Virginia. Mountain Mama😃
