Great spot with a beautiful pool and access to the beach
We loved our stay here. Cute little condo with a great pool and hot tub. The owner was very nice and helpful. My daughter asked if we could stay there every time we go.

Excellent location and fantastic host!
Condo was perfect for our family! Sweet memories made with our grandkids exploring Galveston.
My family stayed for 5 days. We loved the place. The 2 bedrooms both with king beds is really hard to find. The place was clean and comfortable. The location by the pool was awesome.
Great location and property with a very responsive host! Having the pool right outside the condo was wonderful. The beds weren’t the most comfortable and the unit could use a deep clean but it was well stocked with lots of extras to use at the beach.
We had the perfect stay in Galveston! This condo had everything we needed from the stocked kitchen to all of the beach accessories! The condo was very clean and in a great location!
The owner was easy to communicate with and had great suggestions to make our stay even better! We will definitely be going back!

Beach weekend
We have a wonderful time. Condo was spacious and bright. Poolview was excellent. Definitely will book again
We've stayed at this complex several times over the years, and this unit is definitely one of the best. First and foremost, Bob and Lillian were fantastic hosts—easily the most accommodating we've ever had. The beds were comfortable, and the home was spotless and nicely furnished. Being on the first floor and so close to the pool was a huge advantage, and the short walk to the beach made it even better. Without a doubt, we'll be staying here again.
Very Relaxing and peaceful. Very clean and modern home.Beds we’re comfortable. Great communication with the owner. Pool and spa were very clean and we really enjoyed it! The lotion provided was helpful as we did soak up lots of sun. I even found a bread pan and decided to make banana bread! Everything we needed was provided. It was definitely worth the money we paid! We hope to come back again.

Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Check-in
Make sure all your codes are up to date. We had to jump through hoops to get in when checked in.
Very difficult to change the Congo door code to our own number. Once we got it changed, it all signed fine.
Nice condo in a great location.
Great place. But did not like the fact we didn’t know the hot tub wasn’t working until we were waiting for it to get warm at 9 pm. Very disappointing. $40 to park seems excessive. But the condo was beautiful and kept very clean. No complaints about the condo itself or the owners. They kept in great contact.

Great condo
We had a wonderful stay at this condo. Info was great, from necessary codes to condo info to local attractions and recommended restaurants. The cleanliness and supplies were very appreciated. Had everything from trash bags, paper towels, toilet tissue, cookware, plates, Coffee, laundry detergent, dish soap and on and on. Additionally, they provided games, beach towels, toys, boogie board and chairs, pack n play, high chair, other items which saved us from hauling more on vacation. The pool is beautiful and well maintained and we had a front row seat to it. The only item I missed was a hair dryer but was not a big deal. Appreciated the communication with owner and highly recommend.
The condo was very ,ce. Good size bedrooms with their own bathrooms. we don't drink coffee, but thought it was nice of owner to provide it. Gives guest time to get to grocery store. Beach towels, cooler, etc. were great Especially if you are flying in and not driving your own car. TV in bedroom closest to parking lot was not working- I checked connections and it would turn on, but then kept cutting off. Tension rod with bathroom shower curtain fell down and I couldn't get it to stay back up. The pool was really nice. We'd definitely recommend you and would use you again, if we were going to be in the area. Thanks for your hospitality!
This year instead of staying at a large resort, we opted for a private condo. The condo is close to the beach; you can easily walk across the street. One of the pools is visible from the balcony/porch. However, you cannot access the pool directly from your porch without jumping the fence.
The condo was quiet and we appreciated the dark curtains in each room. There were plenty of cooking dishes if you choose to cook most of your meals on site. They also had beach chairs and beach towels so we didn’t have to pack unnecessary items. There were plenty of paper towels and toilet paper to use. I appreciate that they did not ration the dishwasher or washer pods allowing you to do multiple loads of dishes or laundry while staying at their condo.
The owners were engaged and easily accessible for questions or issues. The directions and info sent via email were detailed and easy to follow.
Our stay was fabulous. This is our second time to stay at the Dawn condominium. It has a very easy check-in process, it has two pools and a weight room that my young adult son took advantage of. It is just a short walk across the street from a nice Beach. And right across the street from Walmart for easy grocery access.
The room itself, room 811 was exactly as advertised. The kitchen was very well stocked any utensil or dish you could possibly imagine needing including a Keurig AND traditional coffee maker. My family made much use of the toaster that was a nice touch that you don't always find in some condos. The guest closet contained items that could help enhance the trip such as beach chairs, umbrellas, board games, etc. If you are traveling with a small child, there was even a high chair.
The host was very kind & more than helpful in providing the proper codes and even went above and beyond to offer suggestions for the area.
I coukd go on & on, but I would highly recommend Dawn condominium room 811 (Dover's Corner) to anyone. Thank you, Mr. & Mrs. Meason!
We enjoyed the stay it was very clean.Was very well stocked. were not very far from the convention center where we were to be everyday for dancing. The owner was very friendly and would respond to us right away.
We had a fantastic stay at this condo in Galveston! The unit was very clean, well-kept, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect with easy access to the beach—just a short walk away. The pool area was also a big hit, clean and relaxing. Check-in was super easy, and the communication with the owner, Bob, was excellent. He was friendly, responsive, and made sure everything went smoothly. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a stress-free beach getaway!
