This unit was beautifully updated and very clean and comfortable. The Galvestonian is a very well-maintained property with friendly staff. We enjoyed walking through the manicured grounds and then over the lovely dunes via the boardwalk to the uncrowded beach.

Rochelle, thank you for your 5-star review of the property and unit #101. We are so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay with us. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
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.
