1006 Painted Shores Retreat | Luxury Beachfront Escape | Sleeps 4

Welcome to Painted Shores Retreat at The Galvestonian — a beautifully updated beachfront sanctuary designed for guests seeking elevated coastal comfort, breathtaking Gulf views, and effortless relaxation.


This professionally decorated luxury condo immediately stands apart with its clean, modern coastal design, no mirrored walls or outdated popcorn ceilings, creating a bright, sophisticated atmosphere throughout. As one of the largest one-bedroom floor plans at The Galvestonian, Unit 1006 offers exceptional space, comfort, and functionality for couples, small families, girls’ trips, or extended beach getaways.


One of the most unique features of this stunning condo is its three private balconies, each overlooking the beautiful Gulf waters and offering incredible sunrise views, evening coastal breezes, and peaceful moments high above East Beach. Natural light pours into every room, creating a warm and inviting retreat from the moment you arrive.


The remodeled bathroom was thoughtfully redesigned with ADA-friendly residential features in mind, including:
• Walk-in style shower conversion
• Three safety grab bars
• Non-slip flooring
• Adjustable handheld shower
• Additional rain shower head
(Please note there is still a small step-over into the shower due to building code requirements, with grab bars installed for added support and accessibility.)


Inside, guests will enjoy:
• Spacious open-concept living and dining areas
• Fully equipped kitchen with everything needed for a seamless stay
• Comfortable king bedroom accommodations
• Sleeper sofa for additional guests
• Easy access to the elevator, pool, and beach, located just two doors from the elevator


Guests also enjoy full access to The Galvestonian’s resort-style amenities including:
• Heated beachfront pool & hot tub
• Private beach access
• Tennis & pickleball courts
• Picnic grilling areas
• Hammocks & beautifully landscaped grounds


Located on Galveston’s quieter East End, you’re still only minutes from The Strand, Seawall attractions, shopping, restaurants, museums, and entertainment.


We would love to share our slice of paradise with you at Painted Shores Retreat #1006. Summer availability is filling quickly, so reserve your beachfront getaway today before the best dates are gone.

Beautiful condo.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Truly a peaceful home. Colors and furnishings were great. We loved the three balconies with railing high chairs that looked over the railing. We enjoyed being up on the 10th floor. The unit is a little more away from the pool area, making it more quiet. It was our 2nd stay in this unit.

Mini vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our second time to stay in unit 1006, and we love it! We feel as we are home from the moment we walked in the door. The only thing we wished it had was a washer/dryer. Everything we needed in the kitchen was available! Thanks for letting us rent from you. We hope it is available next time we go to book our mini vaca!

A pleasant stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were very pleased with the service and the unit we rented. It is very nicely decorated, it has all the necessary amenities and everything we needed.We had not been to the Galvestonian in a couple of years (we have been coming since 1990, almost every year). We found a new booking system is in place. One of the requirements was upsetting. We requested early check in and were charged 25 dollars for each hour (50 dollars in total, we checked in at 2 pm). I believe this is unreasonable, due to the already high prices for the rental. In all our past visits we were able to check in at noon with no surcharge. Just something for the new administration to consider.

Updated Condo with Great View

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We've stayed at this unit several times now after renting other units over the years. It's been our favorite for many reasons: nicely updated, well-stocked kitchen, immaculately clean, quiet (you occasionally hear the service elevator or people on the floor above), two balconies with comfortable outdoor furniture, and an amazing view. We also love the living room candles on timers - gives a relaxing ambiance at night. Perhaps more guests have discovered this wonderful unit since during our recent visit there were stains on the rugs and yellow chair, and the tub and sink drains were very slow. Also, this time there was a constant odor from the AC that we've not experienced in the past, and the unit felt very damp/humid upon checking in and throughout our stay, despite ensuring that patio doors were always firmly closed. We notified the front desk of these issues - hope they can be fixed for our next visit. Still, we had a fantastic time enjoying the pool, beach, and perfect proximity to many great restaurants in Galveston.

Excellent

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Had a wonderful unit and extremely well equipped. The unit was all updated and the furniture was new. I asked for clean towels early one day and they were at the door within 15 minutes. Much different from last year when I called 3 times in one day and no one ever came so that has definitely improved. Love the view from all the units and the close proximity to the beach. There is only one extreme negative and its guest having to wear wrist makes you feel as if you are being singled out from the owners and you have a big Scarlet Letter on your arm (hey I’m a guest). It’s also hard and rough on your arm and it will leave a tan mark if you leave it on while in the sun. This seriously needs to be eliminated. Been coming here since the 80’s and we never had to wear them before. Other than that one thing the complex is beautiful and staff is friendly.
