As someone who always leaves reviews I feel the need to share. This place was perfect! No complaints. Walking distance to beach. Walking distance to at least five restaurants. Felt safe and luxury and my four year old kept wanting to "go back to the room"

Pre cruise stay

Booked this place for a few days before our cruise out of Galveston. Great location and lots of good eats within walking distance of hotel. The beach is just across the road and getting around is easy with easy uber access. Staff was nice and professional, place was newer and very friendly with a nice bar and pool. Good breakfast included.

Great location and dog friendly

We had a 2-Queen suite with a sofa-bed and a kitchen that was quite large. Had our 3yo and 8yo grandkids and a dog and there was plenty of room. Also it's within walking distance to the beach. My only complaint is that they charged $125 non-refundable fee for the dog which was crazy high, and then they didn't have any bags at the dog waste station outside. I asked both days for them to replenish the bags and they never did. For $125, I think they could provide bags!
