Galveston Seaside ResortRental Guest Reviews

Only place we stay on Galveston Island

This place is so nice. The beds are so comfortable and that’s a big deal to me. It’s quiet and peaceful. The balconies have nice views. The kitchen had everything I needed to prepare a nice meal for my family. Thank you for taking such good care of the property.

Excellent vacation Club

This was our first stay in a Holiday Inn Vacation Club. We were so pleasantly surprised. The villa and grounds were amazingly clean and had everything we could have needed. We slept so well because it was very quiet. Also, th.ere were a lot of outdoor amenities. We will definitely be staying again in the near future.

Enjoyed stay

Signature side infinity pool very nice! Overlooks lots of natural beauty. Signature apartments very fresh with great views of ocean. Beach is nice. No cars on this area of the beach. Direct access from Signature apartments.

Pleasant Stay

Definitely given this place a 5/5. Very upscale clean, quite and beautiful view of ocean from balcony. Beds was so comfortable. We are looking forward to our next visit.

Senior Get Away

The property is nice, but not senior or handicap accessible. The property check-in desk pop a timeshare presentation on you at check-in before you can get your door key. I didn’t come for a timeshare presentation out of t pyramid time. Feeling a little pressure, I accepted the invite. I showed up for presentation with my heart constantly and was turned away because my spouse who also that wasn’t aware of a presentation until checking. No elevators. Just stairs to property unit on the on the 2nd, third and 4 th floors.

Stay

If you're looking for a getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city then this is the perfect getaway. You have to come prepared to cook or bring your food with you. The store is expensive. Cheaper in Galveston. One of the nicest stays I had this year. Relaxing, the room and balcony looked out over the pool and ocean. PERFECT!!!!!

Signature Side is awesome!

I love the view very much. The rooms were very comfortable clean. Accessibility in and out was very convenient from parking lot to the beach.

Not seaside. Actual pool is roadside .

I wasn’t expecting 5-star treatment from a 3-star hotel chain, but this Holiday Inn definitely falls into 1-star territory. First, don’t be fooled by the pictures — this is not a seaside resort. Only one building sits in front of the sea, and that’s reserved for timeshare buyers. The pool you see in the photos is also off-limits to most guests. Instead, you’re stuck with a disappointing roadside pool (see pictures). I complained since I have IHG status, and only then was I “upgraded” to access the beachside pool. On weekends, the pool fills up with drunk locals who are friends of the staff, making it far from a relaxing experience. Rooms are clean, but they come with a heavy humidity smell and visible corrosion. And despite booking through IHG, they still aggressively push their timeshare sales — expect pressure at check-in, offers of money or gift cards, and invitations to “meetings.” Decline it all. Bottom line: this place feels more like a trap than a vacation. Definitely not up to Holiday Inn standards.

Great stay on the west side of Galveston Island

we wanted to get away for a few days between K-Pop concerts and found The Holiday Inn Vacation Club seaside. We really liked the location of the resort, being away from town and isolated to the quiet area of the island was nice. The buildings were very impressive, but the size and features of the rooms were even more impressive. The grounds were very well maintained and enjoyable. We played tennis, mini golf, billiards and enjoyed the pool. All in all we had a great time and were able to relax and decompress.

Daughter to beach trip

Brought my 5 year old daughter to beach and this has always been out go to resort to stay at Everytime we come to Galveston. Was curious about the resort since re building from hurricane damage. Place was amazing and clean and staff is always friendly and very welcoming.
