I like to walk to the beach and Islander East condos are on the beach, I go downstairs and across the dunes and I am on the beach. Condo was fine, and I love the location

We were staying in Galveston while our SIL was in UTMB and the location of this property to the hospital was excellent. This building is on the East end of the island which is quiet and exactly what we needed in this situation. We would get up every morning and do 2-3 miles on the beautiful beach and enjoyed coffee and wine on the balconies a couple of days. The property managers were very nice - all of them. Check in was easy and the property is gated. While this is not a new property, it is well maintained with all of the needed essentials, plus some! The kitchen had everything we needed. Bathroom well appointed. It was just what we needed for this visit.

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay of several weeks in Galveston. We loved being on the east end of the island where it's more quiet, and there's direct access to the beach (i.e., no road between the property and the beach). We loved having two balconies--one off the living room, and one off the primary bedroom. We really loved waking up to and watching the gulf because each day brought out a different "personality" from the water. Laundry in the building was convenient. The water pressure from the shower was great. We look forward to returning the east end of Galveston soon!

Thank you so much for this vacation for our family and letting us stay in your beautiful condo! It was awesome and the bed was comfortable and there was plenty of paper towels and toilet paper which is greatly appreciated when you have a family. There was also coffee left for us so we left two bags of unopened Starbucks coffee for the next person that stays there. Thanks again!

We were often the only people on the beach and usually the only ones in the pool. Very quiet condo. Plenty of supplies and towels provided. Owner was extremely easy to work with and we enjoyed the complex amenities.

If you are like me, you are trying to find reviews that don’t require you to read between the lines. So here is the review I needed before staying at this property. I have big kids. Will they all fit? Yes, and they were happy. We don’t like crowds. Will we have our own spot on the beach? Yes. It felt like it was our own private beach. Will there be room in the pool? Yes. We had it to ourselves most days. Did we feel safe? Yes. It is a gated community. Will the WiFi work well enough for everyone? Never had a problem even with three tvs and everyone’s phones. Are the beds comfortable? No bed is going to compare to your own. However, we all lounged on our beds longer than we do when we’re at home, so I’d say they are comfortable. We used all the appliances and they worked great. The water pressure was perfect. We never ran out of hot water. There were plenty of towels and linens provided. The couch and chair in the main room were my daughter’s favorite spot. My favorite thing was the aqua chairs on the back patio off the master bedroom. I sat out there for hours. I miss it already. The residents were nice and the front desk staff were friendly. Don’t worry, mamas. Take this vacation. You’ll enjoy it.

This lovely condo was exactly as described in listing (beautifully decorated), but nothing prepares you for the amazing views of the beach or the soothing sound of the waves from both of the balconies! The sunrises over the gulf are breath taking and watching pelicans swoop by as you are enjoying your morning coffee is quite special.
The beds are very comfortable, the bathroom and kitchen, though compact, are fully equipped, and it notable that every thing you could want for a beach holiday is provided by Mary, our thoughtful host. There are beach towels, beach chairs (including kiddie ones), even a floaty for fun in the waves. Also, there is plenty of toilet paper, paper towels, cleaning supplies, dish detergent etc. which was much appreciated.
The location could not be better if you want to feel as if miles of sandy beach are your peaceful private paradise, yet you are only minutes away from everything Galveston has offer!
The condo building is well maintained, the pool is sparkling clean and warm enough for relaxing after sightseeing, and the 24-hour front door staff are friendly and ready to help in any way you need.
All in all, we loved it and are already planning another trip. Joanne and Toni

We typically stay at Pointe West or the Galvestonian so that’s what I’m comparing this place to. The building/pool doesn’t even come close to those. The pool at this condo is very small, faces the parking lot, honestly it’s kinda sad and my kids didn’t even want to get in it (although, it IS heated and we visited in December so that’s worth something). There isn’t a hot tub. The building is old, the lobby is tiny and not the least bit impressive, but it was clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. The condo itself was clean and nicely decorated. The owner has squeezed as much counter space, storage and as many hooks as she possibly could into this place and I love and appreciate that! There were beach chairs, towels and toys available, we loved that too. The walk out to the beach and the views from the balconies couldn’t be beat. My only complaints/suggestions would be the coffee maker, which was old and cheap. People on vacation appreciate a good coffee maker. We did appreciate the coffee that was provided though. My biggest complaint was the mattress pad on the master bed. It absorbs body heat which made me feel like a pork butt in a slow cooker all night. I was tossing and turning trying to find a cool spot (there wasn’t one) and this was in December. I can’t imagine sleeping on that in August. But with that said, others said they loved the beds and slept great, so maybe it’s just us mature women or anyone with a thyroid issue who are affected, who knows. Other than those issues, again, this place is a solid 4 stars for me. If you like all the accommodations, pool, hot tub, etc. or need 2 bathrooms, this place will leave you disappointed. But if you just want to hang in the beach and enjoy a great location, a little more budget friendly, I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here.

This is a terrific furnished condo on East Beach, no crossing the seawall. Everything you might need is here, including a dehumidifier which works great, lots of beach towels, hooks to hang up your hat, luggage racks, plenty of storage, very nice bathroom fixtures. Will definitely stay at this Islander East condo again!

Very nice condo, quiet area, not too crowded, friendly staff, just wish there were more things to do with smaller children, kind of humid in the condo though even with the dehumidifier. Overall we had a great stay and our kiddos had a blast

Best Location in Galveston
This property, hands down, is the BEST location for staying right on the beach. It is located directly on the beachfront, so there’s no crossing a busy street or sharing your space with the rest of the public. This was the perfect property for our vacation!

Wonderful rental/very relaxing
No longer will we stay on the Seawall! This place was great sitting on the very private part of city beach or watching the sun set from the balcony sipping on wine and enjoying life! We will be back!

Great location for East Side
I have been to Galveston a dozen times, but never been to this part of the island. It is quieter over there and this was a great place for our young family to come and stay with easy access to the beach.

Excellent Stay!!
We really loved our holiday weekend here! The location is right on the beach and the condo itself was exactly as described. We will be making this our normal “get away” place from now on. Also, Mary, the owner, was just as nice as could be! See you again soon!

Quiet spot on East Galveston Island
Great beachfront location on Galveston's "quiet side." Due to school starting, we had almost the whole beach to ourselves. Flat beach to very good for daily walks.

Junior Olympics / Beach Vacation
Being from Kansas City, our family always makes a beach vacation out of our older daughter’s Junior Olympics trips whenever possible. When we learned that JO was in Houston, we jumped all over this property as soon as we learned she qualified. The owner was wonderful to work with, very responsive, and the condo is very nicely equipped and is as advertised. I would highly recommend if you’re looking for a place to stay in Galveston.

This was our first time going to the beach and we loved everything about this place. The condo was exactly was it was described. My 5 year old loved the bunk beds. We will definitely be coming back!
