Pickled Pelican, Victorian Resort-on the seawall with beach views

Modern, Beachy - owners flair for art shines through! Condo sleeps 6 and has full resort access.

Galveston beachfront condo at the Victorian Condominium resort, located directly on the seawall. This cozy 1 bedroom/1 bath condo with unobstructed beach views sleeps 6 and is located on the 1st floor. This is a resort living close to everything the island has to offer!

Gulf views don`t get any better than this! The perfect day at the beach is just steps away, or if you prefer to lounge by the pool, or grab an umbrella and chairs and spend the day at the beach.

This condo features a comfortable main living area with an open concept.

Perfect vacation property for a small family or for a couples retreat. Enjoy watching the pelicans sore overhead and nose dive into the waves. Come and relax and let your worries melt away.

It was Fine
Overall, the trip and stay was fine. The biggest issue is since everything is through a rental company, there is not direct communication with anyone. I had sent messages via the app and never got a response. The property itself is at an amazing location. The parking garage is super confusing to find the exit. The room was ok. Paint is starting to chip, the plunger was broke and the toilet took a few flushes. With Tyne TV on a wire rack in the master, it just seemed incomplete or rushed with furnishings. Not that I’ve learned the ropes (how to get out of the garage, what email address to communicate with), I would stay again for the location. Pools were nice too but other guests would occasionally play their own inappropriate music so we decided the beach was the best place for our family.

Good for the money
Pros: It was ok for the price we paid. Good location and amenities. It was very close to the beach. Cons: the toilet didnt flush all the way. The property manager said they would send a plumber but he never came so we had to put toilet paper in the trash which is disgusting. Only one light in the bedroom worked and the mattress was horrible. Other than that we had fun and thats all that matters.

Wonderful location! Located right across from the Gulf, cross walks, restaurants, fast food, pizza, and Walmart. Pools were nice, chairs and loungers nice. The water could’ve been cooler, water temp was more like bath water. Bed was comfortable, bunk beds were nice for smaller kids and the futon was comfortable as a bed as well.

I really enjoyed my stay at the Pickled Pelican! Beautiful views and artistic decor! The only problem was the internet access, we had no internet for our entire stay! Across the street on the beach, I had access. Otherwise great time!

Mother’s Day get away
My 80 yo mother, myself and my two girls stayed for two nights for a Galveston get away. We loved the room we had! Great area, easy to get in and out of, friendly staff, we felt very safe and secure! The room was decorated so cute! Everything we needed was right there, most already in house but what Walmart next door for quick stop! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Spring break at the Pickled Pelican
Clean and comfortable for our family of four Spent time relaxing on the lanai playing cards and enjoying the view. Fun artwork throughout the space. Only negative was the wad of hair left on the hook in the shower.

Was not smoke free
Cons: the one bedroom smelled so bad of cigarettes smoke I could not sleep in there. It took 3 days for coastal wave to email be back about it. Their fix was to spray Febreze, All the bedding and pillows smelled of smoke. If you don’t mind sleeping in a room that’s been heavenly smoked in then this is your place. Pros. Good location, college room vibees, at least they have lots of sleeping options other than the bed room and Great balcony. The pool is nice too. Close walk to the beach. I was not offered any time of refund for not being able to use the bedroom due to the smoke smell.

We had a great time. Maybe an extra trash bag if anything? No problem that it wasn’t provided just one thing we didn’t think of. Found extra towels the last night night. Will def stay again. We really enjoyed it.

This property hit all the necessary points that we needed for our vacation. The condo was homey and clean and it good condition. We enjoyed having two fridges for our groceries and drinks. We got to cook some meals on the stovetop which was convenient. It was great that both of the pools were heated, the weather was rainy but we still managed to have fun. The place is quiet and everyone is respectful. All of the outdoor areas are maintained and clean.

Right next to the beach
We loved being right next to the beach and the grocery store. The patio was a huge plus for extra space for my boys. It was ok clean: pretty dusty and the corners of the floors were not swept. But otherwise not bad.

Convenient location
Great location across from the beach. Pool below condo was fairly warm for March and it was convenient with grills located near it to cook lunch. Walmart across the road for groceries. Several restaurants within walking distance. The only downside was the small dorm fridge (no freezer space) and no oven (other than a toaster oven) but other family members were staying in the same complex so we combined meals and fixed them in their unit. Loved the bed and wish I knew the make. Best consecutive nights of sleep I’ve had in years.

Comfortable & Convenient
The property was well kept. Every morning they were cleaning the pool and the grounds. The room was cozy and the bed was comfortable, which was a huge concern before we got there. The only thing I would suggest to the owner of the condo would be to get a dresser for the bedroom. The metal wire shelf is definitely not sufficient to put your folded clothes on. I'm not one that likes to live out of my suitcase for a week. Other than that it was a good stay.
