Everything was as presented! Enjoyed our quick stay before school starts. Condo had plenty of room for our group of 6. Weather for beach was perfect and pools were great for relaxing. Renting a golf cart was a must for easy transport to and from the pool and to get to the beach access. Wanted to grill out but mosquitoes were out of control at that time, so come prepared! Only thing we would have appreciated was curtains to contain early morning sun light and a fan on the porch. Otherwise everything was good!

The condo was adorable, and the sunsets were great. We were a little further from the lazy river pool than I realized, so we had to drive, but it did not deter our fun. We enjoyed our stay!
Thank you to James Oliver for checking on us!

Beautiful clean condo with stunning views. Spectacular sunsets. Had everything needed for our family, including a pack and play for our baby. Highly recommend renting a golf cart and taking evening golf cart rides. The golf cart also made things super easy traveling back and forth to the pools. 10/10 recommend!!!

James is an example ALL property managers should follow. Very helpful and very good communication. The condo is clean and comfortable with plenty of room for the entire family. This was our second visit to this condo and will return.
5.0
This is a very nice, clean and updated condo. The layout was perfect for our group (1 couple + 1 couple w 2 kids) because there is a master bedroom/bath on one side of the house and 2 rooms/bathrooms are on the other side. Kitchen is right in the middle and was very well stocked. There was also a small sitting area w a fold out bed available. Main living area is spacious with large couch and both outdoor balconies have a nice view.
Our property manager was extremely communicative and responsive from day one. All instructions were clear and helpful. And the Beach Club (separate entity) was a must. There are 2 different pools and other amenities
The ONLY reason I gave 4 stars on "Accuracy of Online Listing" is because while it mentions there is a bay view and "short drive" to beach, you need to know this unit it one of the furthest from the beach access point and it is across the street from the beach as well. But they are correct that is is a short drive. I just think it might be nice to clarify even more, if possible. But this is very minor and we recommend this property and company 100%.

We enjoyed our vacation to Galveston. We would have given 5 stars for cleanliness but there were dead flies and what looked like wasp in the home when we arrived. But we did enjoy the beach!

Pleasant stay
This property was the perfect set up for our family’s weeklong stay. It was clean and comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. The sunsets off the balcony were beautiful. The pool and beach access was a quick drive and easy parking. The furniture was all comfy. James was attentive to all our questions and check in and check out was super easy. Our only complaint was the elevator was unreliable. We would stay here again.

Wonderful stay.
We so enjoyed our stay here . We rented a golf cart which was a great idea . They have golf cart trails all over the pointe west resort . We were able to drive the golf cart all the way to the beach or we could just drive across the street and walk to the beach . It was perfect for us . Just a few things so you know it was 30 minutes from the town of Galveston which for is we enjoyed being away from so many people . Not being down this area I did not know that but like I said it did not bother us at all but my younger kids and their family might have enjoyed being closer to town . We highly recommend this place it was wonderful .

It was hard to leave this place.
The property exceeded our expectations, I spent an unbelievable birthday at it this week: Great location, by the sea and inside a beautiful development; Perfect size for our party of 8, magnific layout for privacy and social gathering; Everything that one can require was available, very convenient and in perfect condition; Views are among the best in the island, nights were so peaceful and the beach club was without a doubt another unexpected plus. I can probably go on and on because it had so many positive details and I believe it was absolutely the perfect vacation property for us, 100% recommended.
We congratulate and thank the host for a magnificent job keeping the property in such good condition and we are all looking forward to coming back again soon.
