Enjoyable stay

Clean and comfortable. Relaxing views from the large patio. Bit far to walk to the pools and beach. Only a few very minor items: Need more silverware, sharp knives, pot holders, a new shower curtain, adjustment to the patio door (hard to shut) and 2 lights in the kitchen turn on and off randomly. Overall a great spot.

Very clean and well taken care of. Owner left “essentials” such as coffee, shampoo, zip lock bags, extra trash bags, dishwasher and washer soap which was very helpful. Only downside was having to drive to get to the beach, but it was just across the street.

Clean Condo with Great View of the Bay

The condo was ready for early checkin and everything was clean and tidy. We met the property manager who was very gracious and the condo was stocked with plenty of paper towels, tp, trash bags, soap, etc. We needed some table salt and she had some for us. 🙂 Although the pools are not within walking distance, they’re a short drive and the peaceful environment surrounding the property is a good trade off. The bay view is beautiful. We would stay there again.

Perfect

This location is a short drive from the hustle and bustle of the “beach” scene of Galveston, chain restaurants, entertainment etc. but If you don’t want all the traffic and people around, this is the location to book. The beach and the club was not crowded and the overall atmosphere was peaceful and cozy. The condo was surprisingly spacious and our group was able to spend time together in the living room and dining table and we all had the space to be alone in our rooms. The hosts were responsive and pleasant. More importantly, we were able to check-in early 😊. 10/10 would definitely come back.

The condo was beautiful. Very clean and well stocked. Owners were quick to respond to questions. The only let down for us was not a reflection of the condo owners, but more Pointe West in general. The lazy river pool is either broken, or no longer a lazy river pool. We have been staying at Pointe West for the last 6 years, and our kiddos always loved the lazy river pool. The year before it was down to one weak jet, and this year there was none. On the plus side they have replaced the grass with astroturf which has solved the pesky ant issues. Overall we had a wonderful time, and will certainly be back. Please note that the con I mentioned is by no means a reflection of the condo owners. It is the reponsibility of the resort.

Nice place, well kept, great location...

Nice benefits of using community pool. The closest public beach access has you walking a lot, but it wasnt crowded. The day we arrived the elevator didn't work and we had to haul everything for our family up 4 flights of stairs. The next day, the elevator worked. The day we left and haul everything back down, it did not work. The people there said it's common & happens a lot and can't be guaranteed to be working. Because of this, we will be staying elsewhere next time. The property and surrounding areas were very well kept and nice.

Beautiful and Relaxing

I spent a week with my 3 kids ages 8 - 11. The condo was absolutely perfect. We had plenty of space and everything I needed in the kitchen to prepare meals and snacks. The breeze and sunset view from the balcony was delightful. We road our bikes around the properties and used the tunnel under the highway which my kids loved. We visited both swimming pools during our stay. I thought the lazy river would be larger but it was fine even with several kids in it playing. There were plenty of poolside chairs, even during the busiest times of the day. The beach was beautiful and the water exceptionally clear this year for Galveston. We had a great time and I would definitely recommend this property. Surprisingly, we only needed mosquito spray for one late evening bike ride and the morning of our departure. The elevator is a little temperamental but that’s to be expected in the salt air. Maintenance was quick to respond when necessary. Bonus, the parking space for this unit is right at the entrance so it is the easiest to enter and leave.
