WillSum:“From the very beginning, I knew that it must be a favorite place for children to go. This is actually a huge playground. The scenery of the port is also good. It's a good choice to eat something here and listen to the innocent laughter and laughter of fairy tales when you are tired.”
Orientee:“It's super convenient to scan the code directly for admission! As an official NASA attraction, this place completely exceeded expectations-real rockets and lunar modules are close at hand, and the experience of touching moon rocks is so shocking! The guided car project is highly recommended. Professional tour guides reveal the secrets of the astronaut training center and the mission control room, and even children are fascinated by it. The interactive area is super interesting, and the simulated space capsule operation and gravity experience make the whole family play and don't want to leave. The souvenir shop has a lot of exclusive aerospace peripherals at reasonable prices. The route design of the venue is scientific, and the essence can be visited in half a day. It is a must-visit for technology fans and parent-child tours! The barrier-free facilities are complete throughout the journey, and the staff are super enthusiastic. Such a high-value aerospace science base is definitely worth a second visit!”
_We***15:“There are many places to play, such as the rainforest, aquarium, and movies. Because we were in a hurry, we only went to the aquarium. We could see many cute penguins and various fish... It was so beautiful! There is a hotel next to it, where you can eat. The price is a bit expensive. Two people ate for nearly 80 dollars, and the taste was OK.”
M32***23:“[Scenery] Seawolf Park is a great base for visiting, a must-visit place for military fans, very spectacular, with a lot of text introductions and pictures, very informative
[Fun] Very professional, great experience
[Value for money] Worth coming!”
DENNIS:“Nice new hotel, but breakfast was disappointing
The hotel itself is clean, modern, and clearly pretty new. The room was comfortable and everything felt fresh and well-kept.
But the breakfast was really underwhelming — barely any choices, and it felt more like a snack than a proper breakfast. Definitely not what you'd expect from a hotel in this price range.
Overall, still a good place to stay if you just need a clean, quiet night — just don't come hungry in the morning.”
Guest User:“The San Luis Resort and Spa is the best 8n Galveston PIRIOD!!!! Every time I bring my family we always stay here and every time they exced our expectations. All the stuff is very polite, attentive and always want to go the extra mile for you. On this particular trip we came here because it was my daughter's Nationals Dance Competition as well as her birthday and on top of that my wife's and I Aniversary and when I was doing the check-in I mentioned to Connie at the front desk and she suggested it tonnage something n8ce done for my wife and daughter.. Connie and Camille the concierge took care of everything, they got a dozen of red Roses and Strawberrys cover in chocolate for my wife and a birthday cake and small flower bouquet for my daughter and made me look like the best!!! So thank you so much Connie and Camille you guys are great!!. I wanna thank to all th3 Resort stuff too, the Vallet Parking guys whole were always polite, the waitress lady at the pool. Sorry I didn't get there names but they were great too. I recommend this resort very much. I know I might be a little more expensive but I always saybthis " You get what you paid and what's cheaper ends up being a lot more expensive!!"”
