The outside of the building needs a lot of work. The pool and grounds are nice. It’s hard to park a large truck in the parking garage. We had to use outside parking. The condo we rented was very clean. The couches were not very comfortable. The beds were comfortable. The price was great. Bottom line, we would rent again.

BEAUTIFUL
This place had a wonderful view and was very convenient. Our stay was perfect and she even helped after another place canceled our stay on the day of arrival (still not sure how that is allowed). The condo community is VERY BUSY and considerably louder on the weekends, but a very nice retreat during the week. All communications were very professional and extremely kind and understanding. I would highly recommend a stay of any length!

Cosy apartment with sea view
The apartment was really well equipped with everything you need. You have a super view to the ocean, the only disadvantage is that between the apartment complex and the ocean is a four-lane road which leads through Galveston beach.

10-Years Together and It Just Keeps Getting Better
This trip was only planned about a month ago and we were very happy that we stayed where we stayed. It was a great spot for the beach, it had a great pool, our daughter loved sleeping in the bunkbeds, and my husband and I loved the fact that we got to slow down for awhile. Thanks for providing such a great place for us to spend our 10 year since we got together anniversary. We look forward to next time.

Great view
Great location and view. Everything we needed for our brief stay before we boarded our cruise boat. The room is a little dated but nothing wrong with it. Only complaint we would have is the water pressure in the shower. The very low water pressure made it hard to shower.

Sister Weekend Getaway
Wonderful view and amazing balcony. Location is great. Clean and comfortable. Responsive owner who was very easy to deal with. Only issue for this older group of ladies was a fairly slick bathtub stepping in and out of the shower. Would definitely stay here again.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, communication
The owner of the condo was very nice and helpful, she did a good job making the condo comfortable and pretty. The property outside was a bit dirty, in need of repairs/facelift. There was poor communication from office to tenant when water had to be shut off all day! I would rent from owner again, but not here at this location.

Labor Day weekend trip
This is our second time staying at the Victorian. We love it because it's so close to Walmart and right by the beach. This condo we rented was amazing. Laura was very quick to answer any questions and the place was amazing. The view is beautiful. It is right near the main office and both pools. The inside was very nice and everything worked unlike our first condo we rented. If you are looking for a place to stay I highly recommend this one. Our next trip down we will def book this one again because we loved it.

Could Be Better
Our room was clean, however we had kids with us and at night they wanted to watch a movie and half of the time the tv didn't work. The staff there could care less about your stay. I paid a cleaning fee when I booked and we had a list of things to do before you left. Example: Sweep and unload the dishwasher, which I did not do. On the day we were leaving, I wanted to get a cup of ice from the ice machine. They had locked the door to the room that the ice machine was in. When I went up to the office and told them that I wanted some ice, they couldn't find the key. And looked at me like they really didn't want to give me any until I told them to never mind, that no one helped with anything we asked about all week. Said there was a hot tub. Never saw it. Pool was not very clean. One of the guests was cleaning leaves and grass out of it. It shows to be gated, however the back gate stays open at all times.
