The condo itself was nice and very spacious. Loved the location.
The only think I was very unhappy about is the uncleanliness of the place. The second bedroom had a not so pleasant smell.. the pillows did not smell good. I had to throw one off the bed and later realized it had a big stain on it. The bathroom rugs were dirty as well. The headboard in the master bedroom was very dusty. The place could use a good deep cleaning and would be PERFECT!
Wonderful location amazing water views. The condo is spacious great amenities. Walking distance to the beach centrally located near all major attractions. The beds are very comfortable the condo has everything you need we had a great stay!
The condo is well located in a great complex. The pool was fantastic and the grounds well maintained. The condo itself was okay, not great, but okay. It was mostly clean and the kitchen was mostly well stocked (they warn you they don't provide anything). There were some condition issues. The hall bathroom shower is in need of attention - a very dirty (mold, mildew, etc) shower curtain liner, cracking grout that may have been moldy, and a PVC pipe that was sticking out of the ceiling and looked to be surrounded by mold,
There were also not enough towels and no hand towels for the guest bath. It was only two of us, so we were okay, but if it had been more we would not have had enough. The towels that were there were pretty threadbare, as were the sheets. There were also no beach towels provided and that was not stated in the information anywhere (that we saw) so we had to buy some. None of these things are a huge deal, but they added up.
In all, we'd stay at the complex again but might choose a different unit.
We've never taken a family vacation to the beach before so this was new for us. Staying in this condo made it perfect. It's right across Seawall Blvd. from the beach with dozens of restaurants and shops in both directions. The condo is comfortable and spacious and the balcony is the perfect place for morning coffee or just watching the moonlight reflect off the water late at night. It has everything you need and everything actually works! Don't hesitate to rent here to enjoy Galveston Island!
I chose this place due to the great reviews so Iâm going to be honest and say it did not live up to what I expected for the price. There is an AWFUL musty/moldy smell that hits you every time you open the door. We sort of eventually got used to it, but it was so bad that I couldnât sleep the first night. The rug in the living room was dirty, and although we didnât need to use the high chair that was stored in the master closet, it was yuck. There was shampoo, conditioner, and body wash that was provided in a pump in the shower but it wasnât attached very well and fell off when we tried to use it. The pools were great and the pictures of the property are accurate. The location was also nice as we were able to walk across the street to the beach. Overall, we had a great vacation in Galveston, but this place is just OK-mostly because of the smell.
Great view of the ocean, it was a nice furnished condo. Walking distance from the beach. Besides the constant cars outside the condo it was great. I would definitely recommend it for others.
We really enjoyed our stay. The morning sunrises we saw from the balcony were beautiful.
Weâve stayed at the Dawn before so we knew we wanted to stay here again. Itâs a very well maintained, clean property.
The condo itself was clean and nice. We would absolutely rent this unit again. Itâs in a great location, right across the street from the beach and close to stores and restaurants.
The beds are comfortable, the view is amazing. We enjoyed our coffee on the patio with an awesome waterfront view. You can expect more street noise here due to being on the main road, especially if the bike rally is going on.
Overall, a great stay.
The property is bigger then what it appears, check-in process was PAINLESS. Beautiful unobstructed view to the beach with easy access. Centrally located to a variety of restaurants, convenience store right next to the property and Walmart directly across the street. Although it started to rain the kids enjoyed the pool after a day at the beach and mommy enjoyed the hot tub (yes in the rainđ). Owner was very responsive to msgs đWe enjoyed this unit and the view so much we decided to stay and rent another night of course with the owners approval and with no problems whatsoever, our Lil getaway was extended. We will most DEFINITELY be back to Galveston and without hesitation we would definitely re-rent this lil piece of heaven.
We had a great stay at this condo in the Dawn. Itâs located right on the seawall so you have a full view of the gulf. The living area and bedrooms are very comfortable, and the kitchen is well-stocked with plenty of seating. Fast internet, the a/c works really well, and very convenient to have the washer and dryer in the unit. Great stay and weâll return!
Overall this was a good property location. The bed in the guest bedroom was not great and was encased in a plastic bag making sleeping hot and noisy. My biggest complaint would be the nickel and dime stuff you expect to have available at a property for this price. Only enough toilet paper until you rush out the next day to purchase your own. 4 rolls of 2 ply were $3.49 and paper towels $1.29. An extra $5.00 from the management would have made this a higher rating. Also the air conditioning was restricted to no lower than 75 degrees in summer and 65 degrees in winter. None of this is disclosed until the day before you arrive. Seriously annoying to have to start a vacation at the local Walmart for toilet paper because there wasnât enough on the rolls for 4 people arriving late at night and toileting first thing next morning. All that was there was what the prior guest left behind. Also, all cleaning supplies were on us! No dish liquid and sponge available was dirty & smelly. Probably why some dishes were not very clean as everything is to be washed by guest and put away upon leaving. The condo needs a good airing out as it smelled very musty from the moisture.
We were impressed with communication with property manager prior to check in. The condo was exactly as expected, and we were happily surprised there was a keurig machine to make morning coffee and sunrises easier to enjoy! For our very first VRBO stay, we were very impressed and happy we went with this instead of traditional hotel stay.
Condo was awesome. Great location
Only thing you need to bring your own toilet paper, paper towels, and trash bags. There are no extra in the condo other than that everything else was great
We ended up staying an extra day. The condo is secure by car and walking. The beach is across the street and there are two pools on the property. The condo was clean and had all amenities needed. We were also able to have groceries delivered.
I received an immediate response from the prop owner when I sent them a message.
Towels, suits, ironed clothes for next day..This condo was not short of hooks and I loved it, More time to enjoy the amazing view when thereâs no clutter!!
