About this property

2BR Gulf Front 8th Floor - Babe’s Beach Access - Oversized Balcony - Pool

Experience the Gulf's allure at Galveston Seazatt View, a Gulf Front condo on the 8th floor at By The Sea Condominiums on Seawall Blvd. Start your day worry-free as you witness a vibrant sunrise or take a peaceful shoreline stroll breathing in the salt air. With Babe’s Beach steps away, we provide all you need for a seamless beach experience. Relax in the pool after a sun-soaked day. Summer guests enjoy a complimentary beach setup: 2 chairs and an umbrella during their stay.

Your jaws will drop as soon as you walk through the doors of our beautifully decorated Gulf Front condo. Open the floor-to-ceiling glass doors to blue skies, sandy beaches, and the gulf breeze; dream of your evenings relaxing on the 24-foot balcony with your beverage of choice.

Decorated in soft, beachy colors with a seahorse theme, the Gulf Front condo creates a sense of calm. It is perfect for relaxing after long days on the beach, strolling along the famous Seawall Boulevard, hanging out by the amazing pool, or adventuring around Galveston Island.

The incredible views of the beach from the kitchen, living area, and south bedroom are startling, with huge 11-foot-tall sliding glass doors leading to your private oasis on the balcony. Spend your mornings worry-free as you sip on a cup of hot coffee, listening to the waves crash against the Seawall while you watch another spectacular sunrise.

Your family or friends will enjoy the spaciousness of the 950-square-foot condo. The living and dining area, kitchen, and master bedroom have direct Gulf Front views.

The condo complex is perfect for small families or couples with shared amenities. The complex offers a shared pool with a shaded pergola area, shared propane grills, a tennis court, and a shared laundry facility.

The amazing pool area has plenty of seating and propane grills underneath a pergola to shade you from the hot summer sun. The front desk is manned 24/7 by a friendly staff. There is plenty of parking on the north and south sides of the building. A parking pass is required. A pass is $35 plus tax per vehicle.

Our mission is to provide our guests with an excellent vacation experience at Galveston Seazatt View Condo. We strive to offer a comfortable, coastal-themed, casual, and competitively-priced condo. We hope we can meet your expectations.

The HOA will begin replacing the roof due to Hurricane Beryl's damage starting the week of November 18, 2024. During this time, the south parking lot will be temporarily closed, but plenty of parking is available in the north parking lot. The project is expected to be completed by December 15, 2024. Thank you for your patience and understanding as the HOA makes this important repair.

May 2024 Get-Away

We just returned from a short “get away” to Galveston Island to relax and dine at many of our favorite restaurants. When vacationing, we generally book a hotel or resort which do not offer the comfort or amenities of a condo. It’s been many years since we used VRBO, and our first time leasing a condo (4 nights). Undoubtedly, the owners are outstanding Host – they truly care about their guests! They put forth considerable effort and thought to meet the needs of “their” guests to ensure they have a positive experience (i.e., furnishings, provided extra items and amenities “most” other owners usually do not include). The Condo, is an end unit – higher floor location; it was peaceful and comfortable; stocked with items any guest would possibly want or need during a short or long term stay. We look forward to returning to the island in the near feature and recommend this vacation rentals to other potential guests!

Quick Galveston weekend

The condo itself was very clean & well-appointed; we loved the balcony! Location was great—right across the street from Babe’s Beach. There were only 2 downsides neither of which would be the owners fault, but just something to consider. First was that there was only 1 functioning elevator & even it was down part of the time we were there. We were warned by Cathleen several days ahead of our arrival that one was being fixed & the other was functioning. My mom was with us & she’s in a wheelchair so it was inconvenient for sure; also it’s very hot waiting for it to finally show up. The other issue was the elevator & lobby often reeked of weed; that nasty skunk smell is not what I wanna have hit me in the face on my vacation in Texas where weed is supposed to be illegal.

The condo was clean, spacious and had everything we needed for a long weekend trip! We loved the balcony and the netting provides peace of mind with a toddler. Cat communicated every detail perfectly for the entire trip so there was zero stress for us. If we visit Galveston again, we will 100% book this again!

Great location and amenities

The condo was perfect for our two-night stay; would like to stay longer in the future. Unbeatable view from the large 8th floor balcony. Furnishings are nice and comfortable, and there is a beach theme decor. The kitchen is large and has everything one needs. We loved it.

Amazing

Beautiful condo with the most amazing oceanfront views from both the master bedroom and the living room. Condo was very well stocked with anything you need. You did have to cross a rather busy 4 lane road to get to the beach but we never waited for longer than 7-8 minutes. On site parking available which included a secured locked area. There was even beach toys, chairs, beach umbrella, wagon and cooler that were available. Front desk staff were very nice and Cat the owner was wonderful with very good communication of the necessary information. Would definitely stay here again.

Perfect location, loved the view

The Seazatt View Condo was just what we needed for a quick beach getaway. My partner and I loved our spot. The view was excellent and it was just across the street from the beach. Check in was simple and the front desk staff was extremely helpful. The condo had everything you needed - full kitchen, beach supplies, comfortable beds, and a nice clean pool. My favorite perk was the beach chairs/umbrella package on the beach. Such a great addition to staying here. We would love to come back and stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Cathleen T. Caszatt

As a career military family, we experienced the transient lifestyle of frequent relocations alongside our four children, navigating new schools and friendships with each move.

Yet, after 25 years of service, the decision to settle permanently on Galveston Island was natural. We were drawn to the island's beachside allure and laid-back lifestyle.

Our island life transition saw us extend our hospitality beyond our primary residence. Building on our successful vacation condo rentals in Gulf Shores, Alabama, we ventured into investing in three properties on Galveston Island.

With Jack's retirement from a 15-year tenure as a Southwest Airlines pilot, our focus shifted toward nurturing these rental ventures. As our children have grown and pursued their paths off the island, our condos have become our new "children" sources of pride and dedication.

Welcoming guests to our condos has become a passion for Cat, a natural hostess who delights in offering recommendations and ensuring memorable experiences. She enjoys decorating the condos with coastal-themed decor and vibrant colors, creating a beachy ambiance that her guests enjoy.

Consistently receiving five-star reviews, we take pride in our status as Airbnb Superhosts for nine consecutive years, reflecting our commitment to hospitality, attention to detail, cleanliness, value, and communication.

After nearly 20 years as IBCs (Islanders by Choice), we enjoy sharing our condos with our guests. We strive to offer clean, comfortable, casual, and competitively-priced lodging. We are confident that we will meet your expectations.
