Great view
Communication with the property manager made the process very easy. Checkin was simple and the condo was exactly what we expected. It’s small but has everything you need to cook and enjoy a few days overlooking the beach. Everything was super clean and the beds were comfy. My only critique would be that it’s about time to update the pillows, but we slept well and would absolutely stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay very much. The property is in an excellent location and the beach view is amazing from the balcony. Would definitely stay here again!! Only thing missing was an extra roll of toilet paper; we only had the one on the holder. Everything else was well stocked.

Everything was as advertised. The condo had everything we needed. The housekeeper had forgot to leave trash bags in the trash bins but we texted and received them in minutes. The condo is nice because it overlooks the ocean and it is near a red light with a crosswalk for easy access to the beach. It is small but is laid out really well and has nice amenities. Great place to stay!

Great location/cute condo/misunderstanding
Short version: We paid for early check in. They said we could check in at noon. Opened the door to a mess! Didn’t realize we had early check in so housekeeping wasn’t done yet. Refrigerator hadn’t been closed properly so freezer froze up. They informed us and unplugged it to thaw. It then drained water all over kitchen floor, leaving us a headache. Biggest complaint is they only reimbursed us our $35 early check in fee even requesting several times for more! After we waited 3 hours for housekeeping to clean, it was great! Housekeeping did a super job! Condo has great appliances, such as the blender, big coffee maker, has cute little bar area, awesome margarita glasses, nice kitchen. We made every single meal there with fresh seafood from the market! Perfect view from the balcony! You need to cuddle because of small bedroom which shouldn’t be a problem!

The Best Stay Ever
From the moment I booked the property the customer service was exceptional! Any time I had any type of of question, it was always responded to within 10min or less. The property was beautiful, clean, with the best view! The unit was on the 3rd floor which worried me, but when I found out it was next to the elevator it made it seamless to move around. Another positive was having the laundry room right outside the door making it super easy to wash clothes throughout or 6 day stay. The only negative thing that I noticed was the mattress in the bedroom. For what we paid for the unit I was expecting to have a more comfortable pillow top style mattress. I reached out to the property manager of the unit requesting a mattress topper, initially think this was a far fetch ask, but was pleasantly surprised when they agree to get one ordered and sent over the very next day! Overall, my family thoroughly enjoyed our week stay and would return and book with this company again!

Short and Sweet
My husband and I stayed at this property in the third week of October just for four days. This property was convenient to everything. The beach was right across the road and there are stores everywhere as well as restaurants. Also for those that have problems going up and down stairs there was an elevator which made it extremely convenient for us. There are multiple very good restaurants to choose from and plenty of things to see and do around the area. Just a note to let you be aware of in the area they do charge for parking on the street but it will be posted where they do charge. The cost varies depending on where you’re parking. Which makes the location of this condo even more valuable because you don’t have to pay four dollars an hour to park your car by the beach you just walk across the road. Everyone I corresponded with from beginning to the end with this property was extremely helpful and informative. We will definitely stay here again when we come back.

Booked very last minute for a two-night stay with my husband and child. Facility was perfect for our purpose of visiting the beach and restaurants. Ocean-view was best we've had at Casa del Mar. This has also been my favorite decorating scheme at any of the condos we have stayed at. The refrigerator/freezer drawers are very sensitive, but owners left very detailed instructions for resolving the beeping sound! All instructions were very clear and the communication with property owners was top-notch!

Spur of the moment getaway to Galveston
My wife and I wanted to get away to the beach and we'd never been to Galveston in our 25+ years in Texas. We were lucky enough to have this property available on a weeks notice during the middle of the summer season. The property is very, very nice--well appointed, comfortable for two (and even two more small children), had everything we needed. Check-in was a breeze and their was plenty of parking. You're right across from the beach, which was never really crowded. The hosts communicated regularly to help with check-in and to make sure the visit went smoothly. I would say they are among the best vrbo hosts ever. The only downside of the property is we couldn't fully enjoy the very nice balcony and view because of the endless traffic noise on Seawall Blvd. To be clear, with the sliding glass door closed, there was no noise inside--very peaceful. It's just a well-travelled road on the island and you hear it on the balcony from 7am-11pm, at least in July, rather than the ocean. No fault of the hosts here. They clearly say the condo faces Seawall Blvd. Never having been to Galveston, we didn't know. Nonetheless, we had a great time.

Beach front get away
This was a great condo facing the gulf. It was stocked with all kinds of appliances if you want to cook or bake. I might have to stay there again in the near future.

Thank you for the 5 Star review. We love to hear our guests had everything they need and enjoyed their stay. Our team works hard to add those little special things so our guests will not have to want anything. This property is across the street from Babe's beach and within walking distance of many stores, places to eat, and entertainment. We look forward to hosting you again in the near future.

Perfect!
The condo was just adorable! It is small but makes good use of space. The bunk beds are junior bunk beds so just something to keep in mind. Working with the property management team was great! Very responsive and absolutely wonderful customer service! The location is amazing - right across from the beach and walking distance to lots of different things! Really couldn’t be better!

Great beach location!
We were very pleased with the condo. Great beach location, centrally located, and direct ocean view. The condo is small but well appointed. The host went above and beyond to solve TV issue we experienced - very responsive and didn't give up until issue was resolved to our satisfaction. I look forward to staying at some of their other properties.

Perfect Cozy condo for the 2 of us
Very clean, well decorated, quiet room, short walk across street to beach; beach had chairs/umbrellas to rent. Just a few minute's drive to anything you want to do on the island. Visited the Strand, drove to East end of Island to see the ships, relaxed on the beach & enjoyed the balcony each morning/night. Would recommend for price/location/cleanliness & proximity.
