Overall nice place
We enjoyed the stay. Great location, easy check in and awesome staff. Room was nice and clean, the only issue was an electrical wire hanging down from the kitchen light...was not fond of that...Also was not fond of the neighbor, they were the owner of that particular unit and were rather snooty...but otherwise was awesome visit.

Needs
They need to add more lighting to the place. Only one lamp and it is not by the sofa. Only the overhead lights in the place. The door to the bathroom did not have a latch into the door jamb. Otherwise, it was very nice.

Left out to dry
The condo is very basic and has the bare minimum No usb ports to charge phones only 1 mirror in the bathroom above sink. No clocks. Cookware and dinnerware very basic and again bare minimum The most disappointing part was when we reached out to Vacasa the property management company to alert them that condo flooded during the last hurricane the property management company nevero reached reached back out to us! We see spent over 3 hours working hard to stop the flooding , protecting the unit the best we could and cleaning up all the water. I reached out to Vacasa several times and still 3 days later no response, no thank you, no gratitude, no offer to compensate us for our hard work our loss of time to protect this unit We were told the property was shutting down a day before we were due to leave . We had no choice to leave. The lack of communication, the owner and Vacasa lack of concern and gratitude are just very disappointing.

Beautiful View BUT
Property is beautifully kept, lawn, pool and games available were all excellent. The Condo wasn’t as clean as I would prefer. We had to also clean the sliding door so that we could enjoy the view. Porch gliders are so comfortable and enjoyed our evenings on the balcony. Down side the room had a musty smell so we bought a room deodorizer to help. Mold on wall by air unit and air unit was really dirty and not well maintained. Also had to buy toilet paper as we were only given 2. The bathroom mirror were dirty and the frig had a onion smell. Again love the property but would pick another unit to rent.

Moldy and loud
This is a property to avoid. The humidifier overflows and the floor is peeling off. There is mold on the floor and we both got sick. Our second complaint is that it is LOUD. Between the air conditioning and the humidifier, you WILL NOT be able to sleep. The view is nice but when the wind is blowing the sliding door rattles in the frame. The bathroom door does not close, there is only a knob. This property is not worth what it costs. It is only a very small room with a galley kitchen. The neighbors and check in people were very pleasant.

What a view!
We stayed over the weekend and had a great time. The condo feels very safe. Good area and the gated entrance was nice. The view from the balcony was best! The TV is good size. The condo had everything we needed. The only suggestion would be to have the shower cleaned better there was mold. Great location we hope to stay again in the future.

Great for a short getaway
Pros: Location (NOT on Seawall and directly on beach was perfect). Friendly and helpful front-desk staff. Beautiful view and quiet. Comfortable bed. Clean. Would stay here again! Needed more than the 1 small shampoo provided. The microwave is on top of the fridge. I am 5’4” and had trouble accessing it - as well as trying to figure it out. It would be impossible to get to for anyone shorter.

Gem of a lil stay!
After an impromptu work trip to Galveston, I decided to spend the weekend and found this rental. It was everything it claimed to be. The studio is perfect for one or two. I was very pleased w the resort amenities and will definitely be back. The room was clean and bed was comfy. The captain rocking chairs were perfect for the deck. All that was missing was a small table between the chairs on the balcony. The upgraded amenities in the studio are nice too. The boardwalk to the ocean and the pool are on point! A very quiet stay. Looking forward to a return trip as the resort staff are extremly helpful.

So wonderful!!
Staying here was such a cute and wonderful experience that we will remember forever! It was just perfect for us, the view from the condo was one that we got to appreciate every day. Although we were just steps away from the beach, the condo had a pool that we went to every day! It was so cute and lovely. This condo is such an adorable and perfect fit for any small group or couple! We loved the decor and the location and it was overall so fun and awesome! We truly hope to return again someday! :)

Great getaway
This was a perfect place for a quick getaway for my team daughter and I. The property is as described. It is small that has everything you need. Beach towels are even provided! The Islander east property has a great pool and other outdoor activities to enjoy. The beach is a short walk down a dune bridge and you were only minutes away from dining and other attractions. That sounds good
