Great location and nice condo

The location of this unit is great, right next to a safe crosswalk to easily get to the beach. Gas station next door and walmart across the street to easily get groceries etc. Beautiful property with two nice pools, plenty of chairs and shower stations to rinse off sand. The unit itself was very clean with a great view if the ocean. It's first floor location is a huge plus. Very spacious rooms and closets, comfy beds, plenty of towels, AC and refrigerator cooling work great. Their are four thick beach towels, a fan, two camp chairs, and two boogie boards available for use- which was very convenient! The host Julie is very responsive, answering any question we had quickly. If you are a light sleeper, consider bringing a sleep mask, as the curtains in both bedrooms are sheer and let the street light glow in all night. We would definitely stay in this unit again!

Stayed at the Dawn

Management and owner were both great to interact with. Pool and grounds were clean. We stayed in a 3 story Condo and the family above us stomped like a heard of cattle though out the day and late into the night (about 12:00am). The floors and shower were sandy, (not properly cleaned before us). The furniture was well used. Marked up, outdated. Could use improved decor. The beds were clean, well supplied with extra sheets, pillows and blankets. The previous renters obviously smoked and the condo smelled of lingering smoke. I would say it was less than average experience for the money spent.

It was a great location. Great view. Very nice complex. Friendly and responsive service.

First floor, nice to have two bathrooms. It had everything that we needed. Close to the office where we had access to most all day. Nice swimming pools. Good parking. We all really liked our accommodations there in Galveston. Julie was very helpful and accessible. I would highly recommend this property.

Great Family Vacation Spot

Our family really enjoyed our stay at The Dawn Oceanfront Bliss. The condo was clean and included everything we needed for a great vacation. The access to the beach was wonderful and the beach in this area is less busy than just a few blocks to the north east. There are so many seashells on the beach to collect. The street noise from Seawall Blvd. is noticeable, but also unavoidable if you want an ocean view. We did utilize the provided oscillating fan to help reduce the street noise at night. We would definitely come back!
