My review

The property was nice, however, website was misleading and should have stated that the amenities (pools) had an additional charge (25 per person). No deadbolt on main door which allowed kids to open the door from the inside. Clothes dryer knobs broken. Dishes in cupboard were dirty. Killed four roaches in 3 days. Dirt and dust under beds. Pots and pans need to be replaced. Beautiful views and plenty of space. Nice but room for improvement.

Perfect for a girls trip!

The condo was very convenient for our group of 5 adult women. We appreciated getting away and not having to share beds. Enough bathrooms to accommodate all of us getting ready. The Pointe West complex was great as we liked the pools better than the sand. The beach access and pool access was great, enough parking that we could easily drive (in the heat) to get where we needed to go. Definitely take your bug spray though!

Relaxing Vacation

The rental was very nice and comfortable. We loved that we could all relax in the living room to watch movies and there was a big dining room table right there to work a jigsaw puzzle on. Watching the sunset over the bay was beautiful in the evenings. We would definitely go back!

Annual Get Together for our Growing Family

This is our third time staying at Pointe West and second time at this condo. It’s great for families and offers a lot of space and convenience next to the beach. There were a couple of issues that we discovered once there (the water line to the ice maker was frozen and the dryer didn’t want to turn on) but the property managers were quick to respond to them. Overall, this was an awesome place for our annual beach get together with our growing family. They even left a pac n play so we didn’t have to bring two.

Awesome views of Galveston Bay! Clean, comfortable and spacious.

We had a great stay for Father’s Day Weekend at Sunset Retreat! The unit was everything we wanted and fit our family perfectly. We really enjoyed hanging out on the expansive balcony which overlooks Galveston Bay, the views here are amazing. We ventured out into Galveston Bay a few times with the kids and enjoyed getting our feet wet. Bring your pole if you enjoy fishing as the water is calm and you can wade out a few hundred yards if you want. The pool at the beach club is huge and nice as always. Linda and Mary Alice are great hosts and were very accommodating. We look forward to returning soon.
