We just needed a safe, clean and useful place to sleep for the night. After walking at the beach, a place to shower and rest. It's close enough to the beach that we could even go for another walk at the beach before checking out. The staff were very nice, low-key and helpful.
The owners have done a beautiful job with this property. We were pleased with the clean room, the bedsheets w/military corners, and the big beautiful pool. We usually stay in Galveston but tried here since cheaper priced.
Great location and pool,which was a big deal with a young child to have the option of either. Beach access not direct but nearby. Staff was responsive and friendly. Rates were reasonable. Unless you expect every place you stay to be The Four Seasons, this is a great, low-key location.
Checking in was so easy and the lady at the desk was extremely nice and the room was really clean and nice. Enjoyed our stay and will be returning soon

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
not what i would describe as a resort, more along the lines of a motel. room was clean, air conditioning was inadequate
Rooms were spacious, parking was easy and plenty of space. Ac and fan were enough to keep us cold all night. Bed was roomy but the mattess was not firm enough for me. We didnt spend much time at the room and the pool closes at 10pm so didnt get to use that. It is very close to the beach and restaurants! I would stay again.
We absolutely love staying at the Crystal Palace Resort and plan to visit every month. Great location that is close to the beach, restaurants, and town.
