Amazing Property
This condo was sensational. We loved how many windows were in the unit, especially in two of the three bedrooms! The views were amazing with Pleasure Pier and Galvez in the distance. We loved watching the 4th of July fireworks from the comforts of inside. Communication with Tim was very efficient and professional. Check in and all the amenities were easy and top notch. The only area of improvement would be that there was some sand and hair still in the tubs (we didn't go to the beach this trip) and that the fan blades could use a good dusting. But other than that, everything was very clean. I loved the decor of this condo- very relaxing and tastefully beach themed. The towels were great and all of the appliances worked great. The AC was easy and great. The only improvement would be to fix the knob of the Jack and Jill toilet- was a bit wobbly and hard to push. But on the whole- everything was top notch and excellent. We look forward to staying here again!

There were five of us in our party, all adults and we found the condo to be very clean and in excellent condition. Our hosts, Tim and Lisa Sawyer were very accommodating to us with supplying information that we needed to know about their condo and also the Emerald by the Sea facility. The condo had lots of room in it making it a very comfortable and enjoyable experience for all of us.

Galveston weekend getaway
Owners were terrific. Condo was perfect for four adults. Everything was clean and well stocked. The only thing that was just a little disappointing was the view. When we filtered our search on VRBO, we included an ocean view. We did have a distant ocean view but not as close as what we thought we were getting. There are great views from the pool area. And we were extremely impressed with the parking facility, on-site staff and security. We would certainly recommend this unit and these owners to anyone as long as you understand the ocean view/beach filter on VRBO is far reaching.

Perfect Location
We had a nice time and enjoyed the media room on the 6th floor watching baseball game, played pool and ping pong in the gameroom. We walked to Marcos for dinner and easily had another dinner on the strand which was 5-10 min drive. House was very nice and had everything we could need. They had staple supplies to get us checked in which was very thoughtful. We look forward returning again!

We absolutely loved our stay at this condo! It is in the perfect location! We were able to be at the beach, the Strand or Pleasure Pier within minutes! We really enjoyed the beautiful pool! The staff, guests, and residents were all so friendly. The game room was perfect for my children who like pool, ping pong, games, and cards. The rooms were clean with comfortable beds.

About the host

Hosted by Tim and Lisa Sawyer

Host profile image
My wife and I have friends who have owned a unit at the Emerald for several years, and we have so much fun coming down to Galveston! The Emerald is a fantastic place to relax and enjoy the ocean straight from your room or pool! There are many fun activities throughout the year, and we really enjoy our visits! The Emerald is a beautiful luxurious property, and we decided to purchase our own unit!

Why they chose this property

Unit 701 is a large corner unit with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms which is perfect for our family! It has a fabulous balcony large enough for us to enjoy coffee in the morning and wine at sunset! The Emerald has a beautiful heated pool over looking Stewart Beach and the ocean sunsets are magnificent. The kids spend more time at the pool than they do at the beach! And when you are ready for the beach, it is just a few steps away to the prettiest beach in Galveston! It is also only 2 miles to the Galveston Strand with lots of restaurants and shops!

What makes this property unique

The Emerald has 4 large outdoor kitchen areas for those who enjoy grilling! The movie and game room provide additional activities for the family to enjoy.
