Galveston offers many attractions such as Schlitterbahn Water Park and Moody Gardens where glass pyramids house sharks, monkeys and other animals.

We had a wonderful time and loved all of the water options! There is a cold pool, a heated pool, and two hot tubs. Plus, the gulf is right across the street! The only negatives were that there are a lot of stairs in the unit and the bathroom is on the upper floor. My kids annoyed the neighbors below us with their running up and down the stairs.
