BY THE SEA RESORT
By the Sea is a highrise condominium complex, offers a swimming pool and tennis court for guest use, and is across the street from Babe’s Beach and the world’s longest continuous sidewalk, Seawall Boulevard. Babe’s Beach, complete with lifeguards and chair and umbrella rentals, is directly across the street! Babe’s Beach is named after A.R. “Babe” Schwartz. As a state senator, Babe championed open beaches and environmental stewardship. Walk to shopping, restaurants, ice cream, fishing and the beach, and or those who love saltwater fishing, head over to the longest fishing pier in Texas, Galveston Fishing Pier – open 24 hours a day. Guests could easily park their vehicle upon arrival and never drive again until check-out.

The condo was perfect for three adults and two kids. We loved the views and the property. The condo was beautifully furnished and plenty of room. The property is directly across from Babes Beach and it was an easy walk over. Would definitely book there again.

My wife, 2 year old & I stayed here for 3 nights in June & it was wonderful. Very clean, plenty spacious compared to other properties in the area. Absolutely lovely view, 30 second walk to the sand, AC blows cold, what more could be said? Short drive to all of the great restaurants & pier. Very happy with our stay

This condo has been updated and looks great. Both the kitchen/living and bedroom has ocean views with sliding glass doors for the balcony outside. Very clean and had every dish/utensil that would be needed to cook. Check in was incredibly easy and the front desk was always hospitable. Will definitely stay again!
