Family weekend

The property location was very convenient, we enjoyed a lot however the house needs a maintenance ASAP. There was a leak in a room we stayed, eventually the roof felt off, the a/c duct from the wall kept coming off. We had to fix it. There was broken glass all over the ground by the pool and we had kids with us. We removed a big ball of hair from the pool floor drain. Like i said urgent maintenance! However we really enjoyed, we made the best out of it. And the management did responded fas to my messages.

Easy access to beach, close access to store

Enjoyed our stay. Great thing about this area is you load up and drive on to the beach!!! Alcohol is allowed in the beach in this area as well, some don't allow. Dogs are allowed on beach too. All in all, had a good time. House was nice, well stocked and owner communicated well.

Disappointing

Cute place, safety issues need to be addressed. No lights that work by doors. Deck is not safe, poles are loose some were swaying in the wind. Had to call to get check in code. Beds were good. Only two baths with a toilet in laundry room, not four baths. Outside grounds were dirty, pool was too cold to swim. We paid for a week stayed three nights. Neighborhood a bit sketchy.

Mold health issues

This place has potential but it is very poorly kept up with. The pool is the probably the nicest thing about it but way overpriced for what it really is. First of all before we even made it to the weekend stay we had a life and death emergency with one of the people staying and unfortunately we had to try and cancel. We did not purchase insurance and tried to speak with the Vrbo owner and maybe work something out. Even rescheduling to literally any other date. No sympathy whatsoever. But hey that’s on me for not buying trip insurance. The first thing we noticed when we got there was the mold and standing water and the strong smell of a wet house. The pool had potato chips, toilet paper, trash and even a bandaid from the previous guests still inside the pool. The bbq pit area had literal algae in most of the area under the deck and was slippery to walk on. Inside the countertops were sticky with food. Toe nails on the floor. Coffee cups still had coffee in them. The master tv did not work. Turned on but you’re forced to watch the no signal screen saver until you fall asleep. Remote did not work as well. Trash cans outside were full. I did find it weird that there’s a camera in the back corner of the property facing the driveway but also has full view of the pool. Women and children in sure can be seen in the camera in bikinis or whatever they wear to swim. All in all it was definitely it worth what I paid for and my main concern is the mold found in this home.

Not the Best Experience

We never received the information on how to check in and had to ask for it. Upon arrival the condition of the place was less than desirable. The balcony is missing slats that my 2 year old easily could have fit through. The closet doors in 1 room were off the tracks, there is a back door in the upstairs master that doesn’t open, none of the TVs worked. There was no property guide on how to work things or what to do for checkout time. The kitchen was also not equipped with an oven mitt. The view off the balcony is of power lines and the back of a business. We will probably stay elsewhere next time. I did contact them about the TVs and they did respond but since this was a beach trip I didn’t bother to have them out to fix them. I did ask about what to do for check out and never heard back. I would not suspicious of anyone who doesn’t give any sort of refund for cancellations.

We had a nice weekend. The pool was very nice. A few things need to be addressed. The downstairs is very hot and the window ac does not keep the room cool. The lights were always dim in the whole house. If you used certain appliances the lights flickered or got brighter. Might need to look into a second electrical panel to take some of the load off of the one that is existing. Not sure it’s a repeat stay location.

The pool is great; clean and well maintained. It was a great way to end our day each night with the kids. The firepit was wonderful. Enjoyed making S’mores and relaxing in the evening. The location was convenient with a general store, gas, and the beach in walking or driving distance. Our concerns were with the minimal kitchen supplies. We wanted more silverware, salt and pepper, baking sheets etc and they weren’t available. We didn’t realize from the pictures that one of the bedrooms was in the basement. This bedroom did not look as if it had been thoroughly cleaned. There were huge dust bunnies and a sock behind one of the couches and a dead roach under one bed. During our stay we also had problems with very large roaches in the downstairs bedroom and one in the upstairs living room.

Family weekend

We had a great time . It was just too short . But all the negative reviews are misleading it is a BEACH HOUSE and being from south Padre Island it is just that the only bad thing is the downstairs bedroom was very humid and hot the a/c only cools the sitting area so we had to purchase two fans . And it didn’t really explain it was downstairs in the description but other than that it was fine . There was a leak I. The ceiling that we reported and he responded to it and I’m sure it was fixed after we left .

Very easy booking process, the property is very close to the beach it’s about a couple blocks away…very nice large pool, they provided towels, my favorite part was the outdoor fire pit they do not provide fire logs make sure to take your own logs if you are planning on using it also if you are going to do any cooking make sure to take your own seasonings they only had pepper and onion powder… all and all it was a great stay.

Our camping trip was cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances so a few of us GS moms decided to take the girls on a little beach getaway. The house was clean and well stocked with all of the essentials. The checkin process was super easy and everything was well communicated. We all had a great time and would definitely stay here again.

Responsive host, but…

I recently stayed at this Vrbo property, and unfortunately, it had several issues. Upon checking in, we found it to be very dirty. The kitchen light kept flickering, hinting at possible electrical problems.The AC also had leaks, and the rug was very filthy, making the overall cleanliness a significant issue. Additionally, the door got stuck, adding to our frustrations. On a positive note, the host was very responsive and sent a maintenance man to help with some of the problems, they also mentioned sending a cleaning crew, but that was never fulfilled. The neighborhood was nice and quiet, which was a plus. Overall, despite the small hiccups, it turned out to be an okay stay..
