Salty Mermaid Overlooks Gulf & Remodeled Resort Pool! 1300 sf Condo Sleeps 8

Salty Mermaid- Gorgeous 2BR/2BA. Recently Remodeled. Pet Friendly

***Construction is ongoing at the Maravilla. This unit is not located in a construction area and view is not affected by current construction!***

Great views! Sister condo to the Dancing Mermaid for that large family and friends get together. Washer & Dryer in unit. Coastal relaxing colors and decor. Unit sleeps 6 with two kings beds and overhead twins (bunks) in the secondary bedroom. Beautiful open kitchen with breakfast bar and all of the amenities of home including full size appliances......even a wine rack to store your evening enjoyment. The kitchen is fully stocked with dinnerware, pots & pans, glasses, coffee maker (both drip and Keurig) and cooking utensils. Towels and sheets are provided by our partner linen service. There may be some variations in furnishings or decor since pictures were taken.

The property has wonderful amenities to discover and enjoy while staying at Salty Mermaid. Three pools (one of which is heated), a hot tub, poolside grills, picnic tables, chaise loungers and poolside seating...as well as a volleyball area...all in a relaxing tropical setting. Additional outdoor activities include ping-pong and bean bag toss. There's free internet in the lobby and an exercise room overlooking the Gulf.

Due to the ongoing construction and in the interest of Safety, the Maravilla business office will be located in unit 121. This is where you will need to go to pay your parking.
A parking fee must be paid to Maravilla office upon arrival. The office does not accept cash. Parking Rules and prices are as follows:
1) Parking Rates will be set at $10.00 per car per day PLUS Sales tax
2) Trailers (Motorcycle) will be charged the same rate as cars and are limited to special event weekends such as Biker Rally Weekend. No other time are trailers of any sort allowed to be parked at Maravilla.

Galveston is an amazing and fun community! There are so many different things to do and see...there truly is something for everyone. Within walking distance of Dancing Mermaid, you'll find go-carts and miniature golf, fishing and dining at Jimmy's on the Pier, batting cages, and our local movie theater. Moody Gardens Golf Course is located nearby, as is the entire Moody Gardens experience and our world-famous waterpark, Schlitterbahn. In town, enjoy one of many fabulous restaurants that offer everything from fine dining to international cuisine to some of the best burgers around. If shopping is your thing, visit The Strand and Post Office where quaint shops and art galleries abound. You won't want to miss Mod Coffeehouse or Hey, Mikey's Ice Cream! The Grand 1894 Opera House offers some of the best entertainment and shows in Texas, featuring headliners from across the country, as well as an historic setting for live theatre. And, we love our festivals and special events here in Galveston! Mardi Gras, Lone Star Biker Rally, Dickens on the Strand, and the numerous triathlons, marathons and walk-a-thons are popular events throughout the year. Bird watching, kayaking, and fishing of all kinds round out the many outdoor activities enjoyed by both locals and visitors alike.

Great week in Galveston

We were here for 4 nights so that our 7 year old could attend a 3 day summer daycamp. The condo had everything we needed and was very comfortable. We were able to work from the condo while our daughter was at camp and then had a great time in the pool every evening. We would love to stay here again.

Stay here!

This condo was everything and more. We have stayed at other Maravilla condos but this one was by far our favorite. Spacious, kitchen well equipped, laundry essentials. Our kids loved the bunk beds and the KING size bed in the spare room. Beds are comfy and AC works really well, it was a must for being summer time and a pregnant wife. We will be back like we are every summer but will definitely try to book this same condo.

Fun family getaway

We had a great experience at the Salty Mermaid. Spacious, clean, well decorated, and the deck is AMAZING. Beds were comfy. The location is great, easy access to everything Galveston has to offer. The pool was fun and refreshing. The only thing I can suggest is that the kitchen could be better appointed. There were only 2 coffee mugs in the cabinet, but there were 5 of us. And, it would be nice to have some glass dishes, measuring cups, and simple salt and pepper.

Comfortable and clean

This was our second stay at this property. Our daughter attends a summer day camp in Galveston every summer and this is a comfortable and clean place with a great location for us. We are able to work from the condo while she's at camp and then we all get in the pool at the end of the day. They are still doing construction on the complex and only one elevator was working when we were there but that was only a pain on the first and last day of our stay when we were unpacking or packing. The beds are comfortable and the unit had everything we needed. We look forward to returning next summer.

Highly recommend!

Amazing property with great owners that care about their guests. Easy to check in, lots of parking options and the place was SUPER clean. It has all the basics plus items for the beach. Having the washer and dryer onsite helps us pack lighter. The property is well maintained, clean, safe and they have a security walking around on site. The heated pool is great for kids! Its located right across the beach.The property is going through renovations but that did not affect our stay at all. We would definitely come back!

Beautiful Place!

We loved the Salty Mermaid! So much room, very open and tons of light — just a very nice place. It was so close to everything. The balcony was SWEET! We were so pleasantly surprised and felt like the photos just don’t do it justice. We loved the property and felt very safe. Really convenient to have the dedicated pet areas and it even had a dog wash on site! We will definitely be back soon!

Best place we've stayed

We came here in April and returned in September. This is the only place we've stayed in more than once. When the biggest issue you face is a night light with dead batteries, you can't really ask for a more perfect place. Everywhere else we've stayed over the years had some issue that caused us to keep looking. We're done looking.

Great Stay!

Great stay! Accurate description of property, no concerns. Plenty of towels and bathroom toiletries, beach towels too! Lots of kitchen supplies and utensils but absolutely no kitchen pantry items(oil, salt & pepper/spices) so pack accordingly. Property is older but very well maintained and patrolled nightly by management. Construction at front of property did not affect our stay at all. Would definitely book again and go back!

Beautiful & spacious

Beautiful and spacious condo with all the luxuries of home! Plenty of space for our 4 adults & 3 teens. Condo has been beautifully renovated and has every convenience we needed. We especially like the high ceilings and separate bedrooms and full baths which meant we were never “on top of” each other. We tend to cook in and the kitchen was well-appointed. Management was extremely responsive. Would definitely stay again!

Great space for a family

While the complex was a little run down, the condo layout, decor and cleanliness were great. The kids loved the bedroom with the kind beds and bunk beds. Our only real issue was the air conditioning. It wouldn't cool down below 74 degrees, even at night.
