We thought this hotel was going to be great but from the start we had issues. We booked a room on…read morethe Penthouse floor and the room was outdated and mediocre at best. I have stayed in nicer hotels in Mexico. Also, when we tried getting someone to wait on us at the pool and the Blake Restaurant, they basically ignored us until we said something. Also, the food was mediocre at best as well. It had no flavor. Also, we were told that the Steakhouse was closed on Sundays by two different employees. Come to find out, it was not closed after all. They need to get all of their employees on the same page. Also, we were never greeted when we arrived as well as when we left. We won't be staying here again. Since we paid alot for a two night stay, the hotel should have been excellent.

The balconies are gorgeous--the higher floor this time has a better view above the palm trees. Both times we've been here have been in January, so we haven't been able to use the outdoor pools or the lazy river. The indoor pool is large! There's a great game room, a movie theater, and a gym on the property. Everything is access-controlled, so you feel safe. Getting to the beach is about a 5-minute walk. This is a beautiful place! We booked through Ryson Vacation Rentals both times. Great communication, easy check-in and check-out process.

There are umbrellas and chairs you can pay to rent. Life guards are on duty on parts of the beach. You will have to get out when it starts to get dark. The police come by and let everyone know they need to get out. We had such a great time here. It was a lovely beach vacation experience!

He listened, acknowledged my concerns, and ultimately honored the partial refund I had requested, along with offering a 25% discount on a future stay. I genuinely appreciate the time he took to address the situation and the effort to make it right. While my original comments about the property's condition and cleanliness still stand, I believe it's only fair to recognize good customer service when it happens. Eric's professionalism and willingness to resolve the issue significantly improved my impression of the company, and I hope the feedback leads to better experiences for future guests.

Front office was rude and made no sense why they refused the refund when I had to check out due to the condo not being ready I think they are unethical How can you charge someone for service when I had to vacate the property.

We used GBR for 1.5 years and Susan, the owner,…read moretried to lie about stays where people were staying at our property (and we had proof of it) but she claimed no one was there when we didn't get any income for the stays. We reached out to her 12 (current and former) clients via an email distribution list we were on for her and 4 of them responded to me that the same thing had happened to them. She will not let you access any details from your listing on AirBNB... when we asked for screenshots/confirmations of our bookings, she said she'd let us view them, but then would not send them and would not give permission for AirBNB to let us to view them. When we left her to a much more reputable company, she lied about existing reservations that were on our account and asked us to pay for cancellation fees on reservations that didn't exist. She told us she'd do tax statements, but didn't do them. She has lied and stolen from so many people that we had to get an attorney to send a demand letter to her. I would stay as far the heck away from this person as possible if you want someone honest/trustworthy renting your property. We switched to another property management company in Galveston and our rentals have more than doubled in the first 6.5 months. So either Susan wasn't representing our home well, or she was taking money that we didn't even know about... but I guess we'll never know!
