Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The unit was beautiful! I feel like the Galvestonian always provides great beach front condo options. Our condo needed a couple of fixes; the bedroom curtain did not function leaving one half of the window without coverage and the room with bunk beds had a broken/loose headboard. Those two things did nothing to affect our stay - just mentioning it. The condo was fully stocked with kitchen supplies & clean! It was a beautiful condo and the staff at the Galvestonian are helpful & kind. I always feel safe at the Galvestonian, no mater what I condo I book. Will continue coming back! ##### Angie F. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [1 Block to Beach: Galveston Coastal Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Galveston-Hotels-Quaint-Coastal-Cottage-1-Block-To-Beach.h98545180.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Quarters Hotel Downtown, Houston](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Club-Quarters-Hotel-In-Houston.h1156923.Hotel-Information) > > [Bayfront condo on Galveston's West Bay in the Pointe West Community ](https://www.expedia.ca/Galveston-Hotels-Bayfront-Condo-On-Galvestons-West-Bay-In-The-Pointe-West-Community.h53575221.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Galvez Resort, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Galveston-Hotels-Hotel-Galvez-Spa.h8509.Hotel-Information) > > [Sonesta ES Suites San Antonio Downtown Alamo Plaza](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Antonio-Hotels-Sonesta-ES-Suites-San-Antonio-Downtown.h41122.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Sonesta Houston Galleria](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Royal-Sonesta-Houston-Galleria.h878652.Hotel-Information) > > [HALL Arts Hotel Dallas, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Hall-Arts-Hotel.h36075099.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Houston Med Ctr-Galleria Area by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Houston-River-Oaks.h28060.Hotel-Information) > > [The Woodlands Resort, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Conroe-Hotels-The-Woodlands-Resort.h25794.Hotel-Information) > > [Galvez Oceanview Retreat | Walk to Beach or Pier](https://www.expedia.ca/Galveston-Hotels-Galvez-Oceanview-Retreat-Walk-To-Beach-Or-Pier.h102235580.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Van Zandt](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Hotel-Van-Zandt.h10269315.Hotel-Information) > > [Experience elevated comfort in this upscale 2-bedroom Dallas condo with pool views and exclusive access to an award-winning courtyard featuring a resort-style pool, hot tub, dry sauna, and lush lounge areas.
