"Surfin Safari" - 2B/2B BEACHFRONT, New remodel, Gated, washer/dryer, FRONT ROW

2 Bedroom & 2 Bathroom Beachfront Oceanview! Front-row! Over-the-top remodel! Perfect location!

Welcome to Surfin Safari... an amazing beachfront condo at the award winning condominiums known as The Dawn (Best Condo Rental Award in 2023 and 2024). This premium newly remodeled beachfront condo welcomes up to 6 guests with an open floor plan that showcases impressive front row views of the gulf. Sit on the private patio and enjoy the ocean view and refreshing breeze or relax inside where you'll find 2 bedrooms (King bed with adjustable base that raises for maximum comfort while watching TV and 2nd bedroom with Queen bed + Twin bunk beds). The 2 bathrooms include an XL custom walk-in shower plus an X-wide tub/shower.

After a fun day at the beach, check out the condo's 2 pools (one is heated in winter into the 80s ), hot tub, outdoor grills and fitness center… Or just hang-out in the living room where you'll find a big comfy recliner and oversized leather couch (that includes a chaise lounge) to enjoy watching TV (New 65-inch Samsung with cable and streaming).

The remodeled kitchen is top-of-the-line and is perfect for baking cookies, reheating leftovers from the island's many restaurants or even cooking a 5-star meal. New Professional Café Appliances highlight the kitchen with special features that include a double oven with convection baking, 5 burner cooktop, microwave that can also Air Frye, and a "hush" quiet dishwasher. THERE'S ALSO A WASHER & DRYER INSIDE! (Rare find!)

Gather with family and friends at the expansive dining table for meals, games, and good conversation. (Tons of games to choose from.) There’s even an exercise bike in the 2nd bedroom (of course you can always go to the condo’s fitness center too.) You’ll find lots of additional surprises. Added bonus: You'll always be super comfortable thanks to the new a/c system and high-end silent Haiku ceiling fans. There's just so much to love and enjoy! We welcome you to come make memories that will last a lifetime!

Amazing visit

We have stayed in many places in Galveston and this is by far the cleanest, nicest and most comfortable! We stayed with our three teens and it was perfect for the five of us. Will definitely stay again!

Yep, we would come back!

We stayed in early Nov so the price was very fair, the pictures of the property are 100% accurate. The location is awesome, the interior is appointed very well, access to two pools, hot tub and the beach. Nice touches such as a plethora of games and books for kiddos, blackout curtains are a life saver, the beachfront road traffic outside does not disturb the indoor space, and beach toys provided make for a very enjoyable stay. The host is generous with soaps, tp, trash bags which is a stress you just don’t want on vacation, so we were thankful for that!
