We rented their "Beachsider's Villa" in Galveston a couple of years ago. The inside of this converted convenience store/restaurant was adequate with plenty of space. Outside pool was fun for kids. The outside of the home is unsightly and badly in need of pressure wash and paint. Owner said he was going to tend to it but never seems to get around to it. Not sure it reflects well on his approach to maintain a nice looking, inviting place.

Horrible don't rent from them!!!!
Claire Downing the realtor sucks, is mean and rude and a thief to boot.
Long story short we revved the place for a family celebration. My son was going to propose the morning before on the beach we checked in. So I did send a note stating who would be joining which included fiance and daughters boyfriend and bestman to be.
She booked us, took our money, then sent contract with a paper requesting names and ages of guest. I supplied that.
Our ages ranged from 18-24 and me 49. My husband could not stay he was working that weekend.

We generally take the extended family (3 households totaling 6 adults and 5 children) away for a few days every summer. Galveston is usually our destination.
On May 25, 2020, we reserved two condos in Galveston for this purpose. One was through Sterling Realtors and the other through Ryson,. We were booked from July 2-5 in a large condo development.
At this time, the pandemic was still only 525 new cases reported in Texas on May 25th, so we felt fairly safe in this booking. But as time went on, the virus raged. The daily new cases and fatalities continued a steady climb. This all changed

Warning: Unethical property manager
We were looking for short notice rental for the 4th and selected Ace of Diamonds from VRBO. The condo listed slept 6. We had 6 adults and 2 toddlers we planned to put on the floor. A few hours after my wife booked, we got the rental agreement to sign and realized the number or people was very strict at this location. She called Sterling and the lady informed her that we were out of luck and suggested that we just don't bring two of the kids. Really!!! And given we were within the 30 day window, cancelations were not allowed. (Remember this is just hours

We stayed at Coastal Sea rental condo #101. Upon entering coastal sea it smelled like dirty socks. The carpets were in horrible conditions. Stains all over, even food stains in the bedroom, and food still on the wall. There were little bugs along the baseboards, counters, and tables. Multiple people received bug bites wether this is from sleeping on the mattress or sitting on the furniture.
This coastal sea condo needs to be deep cleaned, sprayed for bugs, and carpets replaced before they can justify charging people to stay here again. In all our travels this is by far the worst place we have

Made plans for a beach wedding in Galveston based on a phone conversation with Claire, who at the time actually sounded excited about helping us with planning a wedding reception at their Beachsiders location. At the end of the conversation, I asked her how to reserve it, and she said to just reserve it on the website, and I did as instructed. I then made other reservations with the wedding event planners, etc and sent out "save the date" wedding announcements. Since that time, I have called, left voice mails, and sent personal emails as well as emails through the Sterling Realtors website with

Honestly I'm surprised to see any negative reviews on this page. I've been doing business with them for over six years and they have been nothing but professional I've rented several condos from them and they've done nothing but always been attentive and help us out when one time we really had a major issue with where we are at. They've been nothing but great to us and I would recommend them to anybody.

Absolutely worst rental company ever!!!! If you are looking for a condo go to vrbo and rent from an owner who cares about their reputation. This place is horrific. They are inflexible and unresponsive. No one is there during peak times or weekends. Have a bad condo and they will tell you read the disclaimer. Even the local owners know this company is a rip off! We have a favorite condo in Galveston but we will never stay there again (after multiple rentals per year for four years in a row) -- not so long as the owners use this company. Two separate condo managers told us -- any other agency

We rented from Sterling and then purchased a property from them on the West End. The rental program is run very efficiently (we put our home in their rental program) and the selection process they guided us through to find the perfect property for us was very professional. These are seasoned West End residents who know the ins and outs of what to buy and where. Be aware of the challenges regarding particular locations, insurance, taxes and insurance - their expertise and knowledge in these areas was invaluable. Many thanks to Sterling Realtors and Rentals.

My husband and I rented a condo through Claire at Sterling Realtors for our Honeymoon last weekend. The staff and condo at diamond beach was amazing! However, going through Claire at Sterling Realtors almost ruined our weekend. First off, she provided the wrong address in the "directions" email, so we were stuck driving up and down the seawall searching for the condo. After finally giving up on finding the condo, we parked our car at her office (we needed to drop our car off the night before our stay since our chauffeur for our wedding night was going to drop us off at the condo in another

We recently stayed at a Diamond Beach condo that was rented by Sterling Realtors. The condo and resort were very nice. However, their housekeeping is not up to par with what they charge for the condos. They do not provide toilet paper (other than the paper on the roll) or trash bags. The blankets on all the beds were dirty and they do not put sheets on the top bunk beds. I know this information b/c I emailed them to give them some feedback about our stay and that is exactly what they told me. We paid nearly $2000 for a 3 night stay in a 3 bedroom condo. Not to mention the air conditioning

We have used several realtors in Galveston and Sterling is by far the best. We get to meet them face to face, they live on the island and will respond immediately to issues(our cable went out, we called them, and it was fixed in an hour). We have had other family member rent thru them and they too said, what a nice couple.

I wish I had read the real reviews first....not reviews from friends, no one other than a friend would give a good review.
DO NOT use these people, they are connected to VRBO as well, stay away!!!

They are unresponsive and have it set up so if you are checking on availability it automatically charges your Credit Card the full amount which she will NOT refund, even if you spoke to her on the phone and she told you the ONLY way to check availability is through the website. She even set me up by telling me the only way to refund the money was to send her a cancellation email for

Don't forget anything. No customer support here - very uncooperative. We forgot some items when we stayed on the beach for a long weekend. Sterling Realtors didn't return calls for days. Finally when the items were found - Sterling Realtors refused to mail them to us!. They couldn't be bothered. Finally some very gracious friends were able to pick them up - but they only had a window of a few hours because Sterling Realtors couldn't manage any other time. What a two week hassle because they couldn't put it in the mail. As to our stay - the place is a bit run down I wouldn't recommend it.

I've known Claire since the late 80's, before Sterling Realtors. Since then, I've bought/sold two houses with Claire and rented a great oceanfront house in Galveston over Spring Break 2013.
She and Chris are very in tune with their client's needs and will bend over backwards to make whatever you need happen.

Do not use these folks to rent from or for property management. We found them unresponsive, refused to return some belongings left at one condo, wouldn't return calls, and were rude to our friends. We use property managers and if you are allowing these folks to property manage your condo; think twice. They are not providing the service that you are paying for. We will never rent or deal with these folks again. Thank you Yelp for allowing us to warn others prior to doing business with these type of folks. Integrity and cooperation is impertaive to good business...the Downings missed on
