Love the Balcony

Always great to stay at the Galvestonian but some units have a larger, deeper balcony that facilitates lounging, as does this one. The weather was perfect, the view was perfect, the balcony chairs were comfortable. All good. A quiet, relaxing weekend.

nice condo

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our condo was nice. quiet and clean. We were dismayed by the lack of access to do the beach...after traveling...Unusual for a 12 story facility. Service desk staff was marginally helpful, a bit stand-offish.

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: This was my second time to stay at 1206 condo. It is so lovely . The condo has two wonderful balconies to view the gulf and the pelicans that fly by! It has always been super clean with all the amenities. It is so close to the strand and historic part of Galveston. Perfect for exploring. The beach is wonderful with many shore birds and shells. A great getaway.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were extremely disappointed with the unit. This was the third time we stayed in this unit and we have been staying at the Galvestonian since 1986. The main outdoor patio was closed off and it is where we have so many memories of coffee in the morning, board game playing and enjoying the gulf air. Also, there were multiple leaks in the ceiling and the ice maker did not work. We had to go downstairs, get a key and go into a dark room to get ice. We were very disappointed with the entire experience.

Wonderful Galveston beach vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Have rented 1206 in the past. Lovely updates minimalist unit. 3 balconies; however the biggest one, which is our favorite because it’s deep and has shade was blocked as netting on rail was being replaced and not finished. It is such a comfortable unit. The shades on all the windows are great and easy to operate. Would rent again.
