About this property

Ocean-front, 10th Floor 2/2 condo with pool! Stunning views from private balcony

** New Management**
Gorgeous oceanfront high rise, 2 bedroom, 2 bath condo. We are located on the 10th floor with a spectacular, panoramic views of the ocean. Step onto the balcony and enjoy the ocean while having your morning coffee or evening wine. The oceanfront bedroom has a balcony as well. Wake up to the amazing sunrises over the ocean, and maybe see some dolphins. Full-size kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need including microwave oven, stainless steel appliances, and granite counter tops. Bedroom 1 has a queen size bed and an amazing ocean view. The second bedroom has a king size bed, en-suite bathroom with tub/shower combo and large walk-in closet. This room has a beautiful sunset view of the bay and Moody Gardens. Cable TV and high-speed internet are provided. The building features a lovely pool, tennis courts, laundry facilities, and two parking lots with plenty of easy parking.

We are located right on the seawall across from the popular Babe's Beach. Close proximity to lots of wonderful restaurants like Jimmy's on the Pier and fun attractions like Moody Gardens, Magic Carpet Golf and many more.

Galveston is wonderful during the off-season as well with gorgeous weather, no crowds, holiday events like Dickens on the Strand, Moody Gardens events and more.

Galveston Get-away By the Sea

This unit is on the 10th floor with a balcony overlooking the water and beach from across the street. Road noise was not an issue in our opinion. This condo was clean and well furnished. Our host was attentive and gracious from start to finish. We were celebrating our 33rd wedding anniversary and she even left us a lovely bottle of wine. Thank you for a great weekend stay and a beautiful view for this memory-maker.

DECEPTION: Arrived to CONSTRUCTION ZONE

I have stayed @ various properties for over 30 years @ By The Sea. I have stayed in this particular unit before this latest booking. Upon arrival, we saw a lot of construction equipment in main parking area off Seawall. There were signs (see attached pictures) regarding on-going work to the building. We arrived on Sunday 4/13 @ approx. 2 p. On Monday @ 0800, jack hammering began. I opened drapes to see 3 men on a crane outside bedroom window (mind u 10th floor). There was a sign on bedroom sliding door (put there by owner) to balcony stating "Balcony Closed" ( Now I knew why! )This owner was well aware of major construction taking place during my rental period. In my opinion, renters should have been made aware of construction issues & given the option to deal with those issues, deciding whether to rent or not. This was total deception on part of owner. Two day rental being woken up @ 8am by contractors, construction lasting from 8-5 both days is just downright deceptive/robbery. Your clients should be held accountable, otherwise VRBO should be held accountable.

Clean and convenient property on seawall but down from the main strip so less noise Was disappointment that we also had to pay a $30 per vehicle parking fee but I guess that was to prevent non guests from parking there

Good place to stay...we will be back

Very nice condo. Well appointed; well kept. Great view. We will definitely book it again. Only negative: When it came time to sit on the balcony with a margarita, we found out the ice maker in the refrigerator was not working. I had to go to a local convenience store to buy a bag of ice before margarita time.

Great location

We really enjoyed our recent stay at By The Sea condo. The condo was clean and comfortable. The view from the 10th floor was amazing. The weather was not warm enough to enjoy to enjoy the pool but it was sparkling. Laundry room was on the first floor but was still easy to use and clean. Front desk attendants were always friendly and helpful. We would stay here again. RuthAnn was great to work with and we were able to add two days to our stay.

Condo with a view!

Location, location, location!!! It is across from the street on the beach front. We enjoyed the sunrise from the balcony. Even it is the winter, the weather was very nice. The accommodation is dated and needs an upgrade, especially the mattresses for the beds. Bring you own eating and kitchen utensils, if you plan to cook in. The location staff was very helpful.

Beautiful Condo - Location, Location, Location - Stunning Gulf View - See and Hear the Waves

Our stay at this property was outstanding. I is impossible to find a better view in town in a condo vacation rental. THE VIEWS ARE STUNNING. The property is perfectly located very close to all the dining, nightlife that the historic Seawall in Galveston has to offer and access to the downtown historic Strand. The building itself is well maintained and has a nice pool and outdoor grill area. Although the property is a residential building, the front desk is staffed 24 hours a day to assist should you need some information. We were impressed with out interactions with the property manager/owner of this unit. Ms. Cassidy was very responsive to any questions that we had leading up to our stay and after. I would definitely recommend this property!

Beautiful view!

The view is the draw to this spot! Nice and clean. Only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is due to the “added touch.” A few added touches could truly make this place a great stay in Galveston. Upgrade the sheets, add some blankets and have a few beach towels on hand. Also, I know this is a rental, but upgrading the paper towels and toilet paper and having Kleenex on hand would really upgrade this rental. There was a blanket in the room by the balcony, but unfortunately whomever washed it last did not dry it all the way so it smelled moldy. The mop in the master closet definitely does not need to be stored in the master closet. The TV situation is really dated. The tv in the master bedroom did not work at all. The kitchen is pretty well equipped but adding some more hand towels and hot pads would be nice. Overall, nice view just needs a little attention to detail. I will say the front office staff was very friendly and helpful. You do have to buy a parking pass and the laundry facilities are NOT located in the unit. They are located on the first floor.
