This property had it all! Clean, beautiful condo with beautiful views. The property had perfect amenities with the pool, hot tub, workout facility, restaurant, game room, gift shop, lazy river. It was a nice, quiet property away from the chaos of downtown so we felt very safe with the teenagers exploring on their own a little. About 20 min to Galveston or 20 min to Surfside. We will absolutely return!

Our family had a great stay here! It’s close to the beach club and pathway to the beach. The location was great. The host provides plenty of towels! A great bonus for our family of 6. Everything was wonderful! The bunk room was the kid’s favorite and it was nice for them to have their own little space. The office management at Pointe West were nice and easy to work with. The dishwasher may need some maintenance. The pods never seem to release soap during the washing cycle.
