The Neighborhood:
Pointe West is an exclusive resort community on the western tip of Galveston Island. The beaches are clean and groomed regularly and they are by far the best on the island. The main clubhouse has a beautiful infinity-edge pool, hot tub, kid’s pool, cabanas, grills, gift shop, workout facility with lockers, and a game room.

***AMENITIES FEE: Please note that you will need to obtain a wristband and access code from the Pointe West Beach Club to take full advantage of the community facilities (pools, gym, clubhouse game room, Basketball, and Pickleball courts). They charge $25 per guest 4 years old and older and are good for the entire length of your stay. This fee will be paid directly to the Beach Club upon registration.

(You will receive an email from the Pointe West POA to prepay the resort fee. The primary guest on your reservation will need to show an ID at the Beach Club Office to pick up the wristbands and parking passes.) *** Fees increased to $25/per person in 2023. The fee is not mandatory. If you do not plan to use the pools and other amenities during your stay, you do not have to purchase the wristbands, but you will need to get parking passes from the Beach Club. You can get free wristbands for use of the restaurant and bar.

The Pointe West Beach Club is a separate entity from Best of the West Galveston. Best of the West Galveston cannot guarantee the availability of any of the Beach Club’s amenities. Check the Pointe West Beach Club’s website for details.***

3rd FLOOR FANTASTIC VIEW!

We love this unit and this property. 2 great pools and a "lazy river" for the kids. Unobstructed view of the Gulf of Mexico as far to the left and right you can see! 3 bedrooms with a bathroom for each. Perfect match for our family of 7 (3 kids...they loved the oversize bunk beds.) Did I mention there is pool side drink/food service at the main pool? Yes, that kind of drink too.

MOLD & other things

Disappointed. First of all, it smells like MOLD. Especially carpeted bed rooms. But honestly everywhere. We noticed it as soon as we walked in. Then on the last day I saw there WAS BLACK MOLD on the inside of the patio door. Took pictures. This is incredibly unsafe. Our infant was coughing a LOT, and I’m almost positive it was from 4 nights of mold exposure in this condo. I understand there was just a hurricane, but this is unacceptable. We had relatives staying in the same building in a different condo, and their condo did not have this issue. Mold is terribly unsafe. Other issues: No shampoo, conditioner, bath soap. Coffee pot is dirty and clogged. No extra kitchen towels or rags. Holes in couch pillows with fluff coming out. Patio furniture dirty and moldy. Toilet in hall bathroom broken.. lever inside the tank was snapped in half. Some dishes were slimey upon arrival, dishwasher perhaps doesn’t work properly. Bunk beds are very wobbly, need some major adjusting. Drawers in dressers fall right out. The pans in the kitchen are tephlon (non-stick) and were completely scratched up, which is unsafe to cook and consume food on. Location was EXCELLENT, I love that they had kid toys & books &high chair etc, & a beach wagon to use, that was very helpful, but condo could use some TLC!!

Great location

We had a great family vacation at Brightside condo at Pointe West. Plenty of room for the whole family. The location was perfect-close to the beach, pool, and restaurant. Our only concern was that the secondary bedrooms were so cold, and the primary bedroom was cool enough, but it was not balanced as far as the temperature. Overall, we loved the condo and the location, and will probably stay in this unit again.

Galveston Pointe West 3 BR/3BA Condo Top Floor

The location and view and access to the Beach Club were perfect for our family of 7 including toddler & infant. Property Mgr. was terrific and arranged for 2 Pak-N-Plays and other toddler/infant friendly equipement that DID NOT have to be rented or lugged along via airline trip/space in rental car/ TERRIFIC PLUS!!! The view and beach access were "as advertied". Beautiful/peaceful/quiet. Plenty of space for all of us and for toddler to roam. Acomodations were good and well taken care of. Siggestion is to replace or recover the large beige ottoman/table. It is upholstered and needs to be recovered with a vinyl or replaced with something easier to clean. It is showing stains from peoples' dirty feet. Also, walls in/near the entry need wiped down/cleaned. Showing dirt marks. Those are easy fixes and did not damper the spectacular view and plenty of space! Thanks again to our Property Mgr. for excellent communications and assists!

Great layout and location

This condo was in a fantastic location and the view was spectacular. The condo is located between the two beach walkovers with ramps, which is so nice for pulling a wagon to the beach. The property manager responds quickly to any issues and was very kind. We very much enjoyed our stay! A few things that I think guests need to note before arriving. The owner has several locked closets and cabinets for their personal use. That's perfectly fine and normal, but one is the master closet. If you travel with a little that usually sleeps in the master closet in a pack and play to be close to parents, but that you don't want disturbed, that's important to know. The kitchen was pretty well stocked, but there aren't very many serving dishes and none with lids. Just bring your own tupperware or foil to cover things. There were no blankets other than the quilts on the beds and only one extra pillow. Again, not a big deal, but most condos we've stayed in have a few extra. If you have a person in your party that stays on the cooler side, you might want to bring a blanket(s) from home. Overall, it was a great condo and experience. If you read what is in the apartment in the description and know the above, you'll have the best trip!!

Beach club

Great layout, great view, but needs some TLC. Manager is very responsive but the condo is still missing two of three working smoke detectors, tub and sink stoppers, there are stained pillows and cushions. The MBR mattress and pillows are ancient and lumpy. The sheets are scratchy and well used. The MBR closet is locked for owner’s use only. The biggest issue is the bar and band right next to the smaller (kids) bedrooms so be prepared for loud music and chants of “one more song” until 10:30 pm on Saturday nights. Our fourth visit to Pointe West and we will be back, maybe not to this condo though.
