The unit is in a great location, near the beach, Moody Gardens, and lots of food. Very quiet community too. Very fast communication with the host! Will stay again.
We have visited Galveston quite a few times and let me tell you this was our best experience!! The condo was so clean and homey!! The host was more than accommodating!! I highly recommend!!!
Wonderful location with everything we needed to relax and unwind. Clean and modern, master bed was comfortable too. Very close to the beach, and the pool onsite was only a few steps away. We will certainly be back!
This was our second time staying at the Dawn Condominiums, first time at the Dolphin. It was a great experience. The condo had everything we needed and the king bed was comfortable for us! The location of the condo is in between both pools and right across the street from Babe’s beach.
Loved the location, the condo, the host and the office people at The Dawn.
The condo was well appointed for 2 and the grounds and pool were well kept. We had everything we needed and were very comfortable. The king bed was comfy too. That is rare in any rental.
When I return to Galveston I will stay there again.
Thank you Julie for having such a great place.
My husband and I stayed in this adorable condo for a quick weekend without the kids. It was clean, cute decor and had everything we needed. Just across the street from the beach and a pool view. I did have to reach out to the host and her response was prompt and helpful. Plan on booking here again. Thanks Julie for a perfect weekend!

The property was clean, the condo was clean,beds was uncomfortable though. The 2 bedroom listed on the pictures was actually a large closet! I would never have rented this condo had I not thought it was a room. That was disappointing my mother was going to come buy did not have a place to sleep. Other than this we enjoyed the property and location. Very convenient to beach and pool.

The Dolphin at The Dawn Condominiums is a great little spot in Galveston. You are right by the pool, beach, Walmart, and numerous dining options are also within walkable distance. One could also use the Galveston trolley system for $1 per rider to go anywhere you want (ex: Pleasure Pier, Moddy's Resort, Downtown Galveston, etc). It picks up at numerous places right there on the main drag in front of condos (Seawall Blvd). We did not rent a car and we had zero issues accessing anything we wanted in the area. The property owner (Julie) is a wonderful host and also a great communicator. I had myself and four teenagers with me (3 boys/ 1 girl) My daughter stayed in the little closet bedroom so she had her little private area. The condo is clean, well equiped/furnished, safe, and having a washer and dryer was extremely helpful and convenient. We stayed for three days before our cruise and used Lyft XL for our short ride to the cruise port. The Dolphin is great and so is the woman who owns the place (Julie Skora). I believe she owns two properties at the Dawn if one is taken when you are looking to book. Just message her and she responds rapidly. Please also be aware the property will charge a $40 parking/amenities fee for 1 to 3 days and I believe its $50 if you stay 4 plus days. There are a couple nice pools, BBQ areas, and a clubhouse with a little gym to use. Great little place. Five stars from us. Thank you for having us Julie :)
Communication with owner Julie was great, condo was spotless and location of unit, as well as the Dawn complex is perfect!

This property was very very clean. Loved all the decor of the place. Looked exactly like the pic. Will recommend it for anyone else traveling to the Galveston area.
Thank you for the great experience! Beautiful condo in a great location. We would recommend this home to others and would not hesitate to stay here again!
We loved our stay here! My 4 year old loved his “closet bedroom” and the place came with everything we needed! Beach toys and chairs, plenty of towels and having washer/dryer was awesome.
We had a wonderful stay at the Dolphin. It’s perfectly located close to both pools. The condo is lovely and perfect for my daughter and I. We greatly appreciated the generous assortment of K-cups to get us going in the morning. This is in a great location: easy access to the beach, close to all the touristy stuff, but also close to a quieter section of beaches.
