Great stay!

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!
