  a guest from Santa Fe, New Mexico does not recommend this vacation rental.

  There are items in need of attention, and the unit, though clean is not well maintained and could use updating to provide for a nicer experience. Here are a few constructive suggestions: 1) Provide luggage racks in the bedrooms. There was no place for our luggage. 2) We purchased hangers and left them for the next guest. 3) Light above the kitchen sink needs replaced and does not work. 4) Light bulbs in the ceiling can lights need to be replaced with correct bulbs. 5) Add 1 or 2 more deck chairs even if they are collapsible, esp. since the unit sleeps six. We had to take a dining room chair outside. 6) The guest bath toilet needs to be replaced as it doesn't work properly and sits too low. 7) The toilet paper holder in the main bedroom needs to be repaired-the tap screw requires to be tightened as the paper doesn't stay on the roll.
  The bathrooms have a tired look and there are no backsplashes behind the vanities so the grout looks unattractive. Overall, the unit is presentable, but we would not look to book it in the future. These items I mentioned are annoying when you are on vacation and recommend the owners consider making some investments that will pay dividends. The king size beds are a plus, but some of the furniture could be replaced, esp. the chair in the main bedroom as it is very worn and a luggage rack would be greatly appreciated so guests don't have to put their suitcases on the floor. The unit needs a fresh look...

  We love staying on the east end of the island. It's closer to the attractions we like to visit. It was our second stay here at the Galvestonian.

  Rhonda P from Lavon, Texas recommends this vacation rental

  Perfect location with pool and hot tub there a lot of mosquitoes on the east end of the beach because I think it's a lower area but that's not the owners fault. Condo is perfect other than the TV in the room with the ocean view does not work. The sound goes in and out other than that it was perfect. I definitely recommend this condominium I give it a 5+ price was good and they have coffee in the lobby every morning. They have wagons to transport your things to the beach they also have carts and buggies to bring your groceries and your luggage to your room
