I'm looking to rent a condo in Galveston for the weekend of August 22. Needs to sleep 5 (2 bedrooms & sofa bed is ok) and would prefer waterfront views. We are traveling for my mom's 55th birthday and are trying to make it as enjoyable as possible. Found a good deal at $249/night but the taxes, cleaning, and linen fees are just as much as rental rates. Anyone have anything to rent at a lower rate?

It's over at crystal beach but google tropicana beach rental.
