Welcome to the Victorian, Dig your toes in the sand or enjoy a dip in the pool!

Spacious 1 bedroom 1 bath beachfront condo! Plenty of space for the whole family. The interior is tastefully decorated for that tranquil beach setting. This is your happy place. Soak up some rays on this beautiful scenic balcony, dig your toes into the sand, or enjoy a dip in one of the pools. The Victorian is directly across the Seawall from the beach, and has an amazing view of the Gulf! The complex has 2 beautiful pools, and one of them has some water features for the kids.

Outside you can enjoy the beach or one of the community pools complete with loungers and grill area. There is also a full gym on site for your use. Soak up some sun at the beach or pool, or head out and do some fishing, family activities and a wide choice of excellent restaurants! We are sure this beautiful setting will ensure some serious relaxation time!

This is the perfect spot for your whole family. We are close to Schlitterbahn Waterpark, Moody Gardens, a cinema, and the beach along with many other Galveston attractions. We are a short drive from The Pleasure Pier and historic city centre Galveston, and we are confident you'll fall in love with all that Galveston Island has to offer! Just bring your beach gear and head down today!

With only a walk outside to the beach, across the street from a Walmart, you won't even need a car during your stay Walking along the Seawall and ending up at Galveston Fishing Pier, a short walk away is an excellent place to throw out some lines, and catch some really amazing fish, maybe even for dinner! If you're looking to go out to eat, Galveston has many delicious restaurants to choose from. Jimmy's on the Pier or The Spot, are both great casual restaurants with a unique Galveston flair. If you are looking for something more formal or fresh gulf seafood, we suggest the world famous Gaidos opened in 1911.

Great place for location and price

The location was amazing as it was just as short walk to the seawall and beach. The price was very reasonable also. I appreciated the gated community aspect thus it felt very safe.

Great Location!

This spot had a great location near pleasure pier, schlitterbahn, etc. The condo complex and pool were nice. The condo itself was great for what we needed but the patio door was very hard to open and the unit was a bit outdated but not a reason to not book.

The view from the room is awesome the only problem is it takes 2 men and a boy to get the screen door open and every time you flush the toilet it runs for 2 hours the place has not been updated since it was built back in the 80s and not touch the shower curtain because it’s ready to fall and hit you in the head and the wall paper in the bathroom is falling off the wall it’s completely a rent it out and get that money but don’t fix a dam thing in it unless you have to

We stayed at the property for 3 nights. Upon getting into the condo, there was mold on the front door.....not recent but years worth. The ceiling panel in the bathroom was falling down, along with more mold. The door to the bedroom had some nasty brown stuff running down it not to mention of course MORE MOLD.... All in the room, hallway, vents, everywhere. The bedroom has 2 TVs....one works one doesn't but it is already tiny so why not take it out? Not to mention the electrical panel does not shut and had previously been taped shut but that was not even holding anymore, dangerous with kids. Nobody attempted to clean any of those issues before check in, that was obvious. But the one thing that has me beyond angry, is my 2 girls wanted to sleep on the pull-out sofa instead of the bunk beds so they could watch some TV......There was a FLAT sheet and twin comforter under the TV but no fitted sheet. I pull out the sleeper sofa and find there is a cover/sheet on it, I think GREAT. NOT.......There was not only tons and tons of crumbs, there was trash from snacks and eye contacts, but the best thing is the brown stuff all over the one side of it. At this point I do not know if it was human feces or chocolate, I do not care. As a paying guest that never ever should have happened. That room including ALL linens should have been checked PRIOR to our check in. If we did not have kids with us that we would've left the first day. I also have pics/videos of all this!!!!

Unfortunately, my stay at this location was not good at all! I have stayed at the Victorian before and enjoyed every minute but not this time. From the time I walked in there was issues. The toilet was running and stained needs to be replaced. Sink faucet is old and corroded and the shower head is old.The shower is stained and outdated. The ceiling looks molded in the bathroom and the shower curtain was definitely molded and needed replacing! There furniture is old and stained needs to be replaced. Even the sheets were stained and the pillow shams were torn! This condo needs a good cleaning and needs to be upgraded! Vrbo made sure I was relocated very promptly and made sure my stay was an enjoyable trip!!!!

Do NOT recommend staying here.

We reserved this condo prior to Hurricane Beryl. I accidentally missed adding the travel insurance but intended to do so. The host did not answer my question when I asked if a refund was possible, but instead offered me a 20% discount to come even if the power was not restored at the time of our stay. This is during a declaration of a federal disaster. This property is extremely outdated and needs repairs. The bathtub faucet shoots water out the front because it is cracked, there is mold on the front door as well as multiple vents inside the property, and the shower wall has mold or a soft spot, I didn’t touch it so I am not sure what. I would include photos of these things but am unsure how to do so. The patio door also barely opens so you cannot properly enjoy the balcony. The bedroom has a full size bed and is so small you can barely walk all the way around it. If you are not a small person this property is not a good fit for you. Overall, not impressed.

Nice stay for the price

The location of the property was optimal, with easy access to the beach, nice views, and only a short distance from restaurants. The check in instructions could have more clear. It was not indicated that a visit into the lobby was necessary. The property is visibly a little older/outdated,which did not translate in the listing; however, outside of a few hairs in the shower, the unit was clean. The sliding door to the balcony was broken and very difficult to open and close and there was a broken chair on the balcony, but we visited only a couple weeks after Hurricane Beryl, so we chalked it up to that. Communication for this booking was lacking, but again, I believe this could be due the aftermath of the hurricane. I received a notification that my stay could not be accomodated due to hurricane; however, I didn't receive that notification until I was on my way to the condo. I left messages on the VRBO site, and called and left a couple voicemails before I received an email to indicate the phone line was having an issue and provided an alternate phone number to call. Upon calling that number, I was told that my unit was indeed available for my stay... So at the end of the day it worked out. Overall, our stay was nice. The unit could use some repairs/ updates, but we were really only there to sleep so it served it's purpose for the price.

Doesn't live up to its potential

Keeping in mind hurricane Beryl had just passed through Galveston, the property needs updating. The one working elevator (only worked for 1 day of our stay) was awash with water - literally. When the elevator reached ground level, the open maintenance area under the car floor was tull of water, which entered the elevator car, causing you to stand in a pond of water. At least pump the water out. Our condo desperately needed updating. The tub spout was cracked and broken, mold on the bathroom vent, the ac maintenance access cover was bent leaving a gap in the ceiling, the bottom bunk was like sleeping in a hammock with my head and feet higher than my torso, the balcony door had to be lifted to get it to open, it wouldn't slide. The chairs on the balcony were broken and not what is shown in the picture. The balcony curtains are stained at the bottom, water stains on the ceiling, entire condo needs a fresh coat of paint. It has great potential and could be a really cute place, just needs some TLC. I did inform the rental agent of the problems who said they would get it taken care of. I would not stay there again until it's updated.

Bedroom sheets had a lot of sand/dirt in them so I had to use packaged sheets in tv cabinet on the bed and fold out couch. Shower curtain has old yellowed plastic liner and cloth shower curtain has black mold spots all the way across the bottom. Did not know how to use cook top burners so we “Googled” it because when I called no one answered and never got a response to the email I sent. Worked great after unlocked. Love the location and beach access. Loved the swimming pools and condo staff was amazing. His customer service skills are top knotch! Overall nice place to stay. They provided kitchen hand towels, beach & bath towels and soap. Just disappointed and annoyed about dirty bed sheets. Appreciate there was a nice clean set to use as an option. Would be awesome if owner would put a little effort into maybe painting bathroom in a washable, light blue satin walls and white ceiling and patch or fix the wallpaper tears & sheet rock damage. It should be noted the electricity and lighting had some issues: the light in the kitchen area blinked sometimes and dimmed then got brighter. Got up about 4am and when I switched on the bathroom light it was so dark it was almost brown. Saw under kitchen sink and noticed electrical wire came from the wall to blue plastic box to the dishwasher was lying loose in cabinet floor. Loved the decorations cookwear and utensils. Would love to stay again if I was certain all bedding is clean, and electrical is checked.
