About this property

Stunning Ocean View | 3 Amazing Pools | Hot Tub

***Currently the front building of the Maravilla is getting a face lift. The construction area is currently next to the front office which is temporarily closed. The only impacted amenity is the gym as it is closed during this time however the Marriott next door is allowing our guest to use their gym. General construction noises may be heard throughout daytime hours only. You may also pass by construction crew members or areas on the property when getting to our condo. You will see typical construction equipment such as scaffolding and areas with boarded plywood on the front building. You might hear some noise during the day from 8 to 5. All construction stops at 5:00pm daily.


***The property is beginning to resurface the main pool. The heated pool will remain open and is set at a nice 92 degrees! Project completion date March 1. The area with the main pool will be closed for the duration of the work including the hot tub. Most of our winter guests only use the heated pool but it is never crowded. It is located across the driveway from the main pool so you will not be disturbed by the work. We have also arranged for our guests to have access to the cold pool next door at the Marriott if you prefer a cold pool.



Upon arrival you will need to pay for parking to the HOA. Here is a link where you can pay https://maravillatx.com/test2/.
You will still need to go the to front office to get your swim bands.Enjoy for yourself the great view of the ocean and the lagoon from your private patio! Welcome the morning Sun while sipping your coffee!

Our well-stocked kitchen includes a Keurig and separate coffee pot, blender, toaster and crockpot, as well as cooking supplies and general spices. Convenient breakfast bar for dining and plenty of counter space for serving. If you prefer to dine out, check out our list of favorite restaurants in our condo book on site.

Cozy living room features a comfy sleeper sofa, 55" flat screen TV and additional chairs that provide plenty of seating.

The master bedroom boasts a King bed and a 48" TV.

Twin bunks are just outside the master bedroom and have plugs for tablets and phones as well as their own lights for late night reading.

Spacious, remodeled full bath. Convenient washer and dryer with laundry supplies available for use during your stay. All bath linens and bed sheets are provided. The master and both twin beds are ready upon arrival with additional linens for the sofa bed.

The Maravilla complex has 3 pools plus a hot tub you can enjoy. The beautiful resort pool is one of the largest on Galveston Island and a guest favorite. There is a smaller kiddie pool with a beach entry and on the east side the third pool is heated in the winter months. Three elevators serve the complex, and the "Sea Horse" elevator provides the closest access to the unit.

The Maravilla is a Pet friendly complex. Maravilla now has an amazing new DOG PARK located on the Westside of Building G. You and your guests can take your pet(s) to the park, let them off their leash to run, jump and enjoy their Beach Vacation too. The Dog Park has a doggie shower, toys (Frisbees, hula-hops) obstacle courses, fire hydrant and so much more for your fur-babies to enjoy. Benches are located through-out the park so you can sit and watch them play. Pet stations are on the far Westside of the park and we ask that you please pickup after them. When exiting the Dog Park we ask that you pick up the toys your pet has played with and secure the gate.. In addition; hand sanitizer station is located at the exit of the park.

NOTE: We have also added an Doggie Shower on the driveway side of the EAST POOL, so that you can rinse off your pets after going to the beach and before entering your condo. No aggressive breeds, weight limit is 30 pounds.

Covered parking as well as additional parking is available - parking is $10 per day per car for your entire stay and must be purchased in the Maravilla office when you arrive.

The ocean is directly across the street, and the beach widens as you head left towards Jimmy's on the Pier. Whether you're looking for a romantic weekend getaway, a weekend away with friends or a fun-filled family adventure, our condo is a great place to relax and enjoy your vacation!

For your convenience we have included a wagon that you are welcome to use to get to and from the beach. All we ask is that you rinse it off before returning to the condo.

Lovely unit in disappointing building.

The actual unit was updated and lovely. The condominium building was run down & in need of many repairs. Only one elevator worked, and it was iffy. The grounds were kept nice. When we walked into the unit I was relieved- it was as pictured in VRBO. The owner was very nice to work with.

Stay was wonderful

This property is right on the ocean. All the balconies are large and have great views of the Gulf of Mexico at its finest. Their property is nestled amongst several pools and entertainment areas with grills for cooking. The property is conveniently located near all of the hotspots in Galveston, including right next-door to a go kart track, which was fun for the entire family and in walking distance. We would definitely be coming again soon.

Enjoyed Sea the Sunrise!

My family had a blast! The place was quiet and cozy. Amazing view right from the kitchen and of course from the patio. Close proximity to pretty much everything and the beach a 5 min walk. Being able to have our dog there was great and we truly appreciate the owners for offering that. Sandra was excellent in communicatig with me and truly cared about the comfort of our stay. I would absolutely stay here once again on a return trip.

About the host

Hosted by Sandra Marconi

Host profile image
We are Dominic and Sandra Marconi from Texas. Dominic grew up in Buffalo, New York loves ice hockey, snow skiing, running triathlons and doing the Iron Man (he's done a half) and being with his family. Sandra grew up in Port Arthur, Texas and spent all her spare time at the beach.
We have spent many summer vacations at the beach with our 4 children while they were growing up. Now we love spending time with them and their spouses while at the beach. There is no greater joy than playing bocce ball with our kids while at the beach. One of our life goals was to have a place at the beach where we could all hang out and enjoy the surf, sand and each other. We hope you enjoy staying in our darling condo. Kick your shoes off, grab a glass of wine and enjoy the sand and the surf.
Enjoy Sea the Sunrise.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property because we love being able to get to the coast in an hour. Galveston has so much to offer put that together with our condo and you have a perfect match. The condo is so beautifully decorated and is very comfortable to relax in. We love the fact that our little 5.2 pound YorkiePoo feels at home at this complex as it is very pet friendly. If you have a workout enthusiast like I do there is a great gym with all kinds of equipment.
The condo is close to Moody Gardens, Schlitterbahn, a very fun go cart course and tons of great restaurants. Pleasure Pier is just down the street. Take a cruise on the Ferry over to Boliver Peninsula. Spend some time on the Strand shopping or visit the Ocean Star Offshore Drilling Rig & Museum. Take a tour of the Elissa to see how sailors used to live. Take a minute to slow down and visit the Moody Mansion and all it's glory. There is so much to see and do in Galveston which is one of the reasons we decided to purchase here.

What makes this property unique

I fell in love with this condo when we actually stayed here last year. We sat outside on the balcony with some of our family and enjoyed a wonderful dinner with wine and a fantastic view. The sun was setting, the wind was blowing and I just knew that we needed to purchase here. This is my Happy Place. I know it will be yours also.
