Condo managers are great and very responsive. Property management is very easy to deal with.

Great location! The house was immaculate, floor plan was great for group time, but also enough separation of the bedrooms. Highly recommend!
10.0
We had a great stay - the condo was setup well for our friend trip and the pool and beach were great. It is a bit farther from Galveston than we expected but we rented a car so it wasn't a problem. The lazy river was very small but the rest of the facilities were great!
10.0
This is the perfect condo and community for a beach getaway with friends and family. The unit was spotless and comfortable. Easy access to the beach or to the main pool at the beach club. The second pool is just a short drive away. We've visited Pointe West three summers in a row - all three of the condos we've stayed in were great, but this was the best of the bunch.
10.0
We were pleased with the place we stayed and the view. Issues with water being shut down, but that was a city issue. The managers were good to address our concerns promptly. There was a leak above the dryer, but they were trying to remedy situation.
Feel the place needs to make the showering system to rinse off sand outside needs to have a sign to make guests aware.
Overall we enjoyed our stay and would stay again.
10.0
The Condo was as pretty as the pictures showed, but larger than it appeared. Our family had more than enough room and never felt crowded.
Linda and Mary Alice were always responsive and ready to assist with anything we needed. When the refrigerator wasn't cooling as we thought Linda had the appliance repair person text me to explain the setting and how it needed to stay due to the humidity. By the next morning it was cooling as expected.
We did have some ant issues, but when I reported it Linda said she would have the exterminator out right away.
The property itself was pretty, but not sure I would stay at Pointe West again. This has nothing to do with the Condo anywhere else I wouldn't hesitate. I didn't feel that the Pointe West pool was family friendly and if you weren't an owner it felt as if you were not really welcomed. The distance to the lazy river pool across the way did require driving which we did two nights in a row. We really liked the pool, but once again felt it wasn't family friendly as we had some adults that seemed to think it was their personal pool. Again this has no reflection on Linda, Mary Alice or the Condo and our personal experience.
The walk over to the beach was quite a hike and it would have been nice to have a shower at the end of the walk. There is one if you are going to the infinity pool, but not if you are going back to the Condo. The view of the beach was beautiful, but without a fan it wasn't always comfortable on the patio.
6.0
Our overall experience was not great. I am going to preface my statements by saying there were things that we out of the property managers control but there were also things that were within the property managers control that they did not handle during our stay.
Out of control:
-There was a water main break on the island. For most of our stay we had little or no water.
-The beach was dirty. There was a tar like substance on the beach that got all over our feet and shoes every day
Within control:
-The ice maker stopped working on our 2nd day. It was making a very loud noise. We notified the manager the day it started. We were told to adjust the settings on the refrigerator and freezer. 24 later still no ice. A repairman had to come out twice during our week long stay. It was fixed the night before we left. So basically no ice for the week and the horrible noise. We would have appreciated an offer by management (who lives on property) to bring us some ice.
-They are having a bug problem. We had both ants and roaches. We notified management who offered to drop off some spray. We had a crawling baby in our party, so bug spay wasn’t a good option for us nevemind the fact that I’m not in the pest control business while on vacation.
-We had several other minor issues like laundry left in washer and dryer, leak in the ceiling, etc.
On a positive note we enjoyed the beach club. The unit itself was in close proximity to the beach club and the unit stayed cool.

This is the 2nd time we have stayed in this unit. The manager was easy to communicate with to answer any questions I had, condo was VERY clean! Highly recommend
10.0
The location was great. The condo had lots of room for the kids to play. We chose to walk to the beach access boardwalk. Should have brought a wagon suitable to take on the beach for all the “beach stuff”. I regret we did not pay the extra money for the club/pool pass, feel like we missed out on some fun. Overall a great place to stay.

We loved the property! It was perfect for our 7 adults and one child crew. Mary Alice was extremely helpful and responsive when we had a few issues with the pool arise. We highly recommend the place!

Perfect, tranquil get away.
The Fonda was beautifully decorated, spacious, and the owners paid attention to the details. We had some basic spices to assist in cooking and plenty of pots and pans. A lovely cup of coffee on the deck started our day. It is a half hour drive from downtown Galveston, but that meant it was away from the hustle and bustle and QUIET. Lovely place .

Lovely unit
Our stay was great. The owner provided beach towels and there were were plenty of pillows and blankets. Loved the amazing views and close proximity to beach club.
We did notice dog hair under the couch cushions and on the rug, we ended up vacuuming this up ourselves. The dryer was not working but the owner sent a repair man out next day to fix and we were able to wash clothes. One suggestion I have it to provide clothing drawers for guests. None of the rooms had drawers to put away clothes. I like to unpack completely and put the things away to avoid clutter.
All in all it was a great stay.

Wonderful memories made with a front row view of the gulf!
My 84 year old mom and I stayed at this condo and we had the most amazing week. We were visited by my daughter who lives near by. The condo was perfect. We had our own space and the common areas were perfect. The balcony was amazing to watch the sun come up and the ever changing gulf. I would recommend for couples, families and friends! Everything was perfect!

Excellent secluded resort
Nice resort about 30 minutes outside of Galveston. Pool onsite. We rode bikes a lot. Easy walk to the beach. Condo was updated and so nice. They gave us the necessities (laundry pods, dishwasher pods: trash bags) and more. Large and spacious. Could easily accommodate 2 families sharing the cost. TVs in every room which our family likes. Would return if we are ever going back to Galveston.

Excellent Accomodations
We were so pleased with our stay! The location is great, with a good view of the ocean. We loved the large outdoor sitting area. We sat out there multiple times a day to enjoy the fresh air, and view. The grounds are immaculately cleaned. We enjoyed the beach club restaurant, and pools. Very family friendly. This condo is very large, and has plenty of space. The unit was very clean, and had everything we needed for our stay. We loved being in a quiet location, that was only a short drive to Galveston. The one, and only thing we had an issue with was the mattress topper in the master bedroom. It is very soft, and made us feel like we were sinking in. We are used to a firm mattress. Some may like a squishy, soft topper. It just didn't work for us. We ended up sleeping with our daughter, in the "kids" room :) We would definitely stay here again. And, longer next time!!!! Oh, and the welcome basket, and flip flops are a nice touch <3
