The stay was perfect for Mother’s Day! The space is bigger than it looks from the outside, and very clean. The “3 beds” is more of a “2 bed, one couch” situation, but the one who slept on the couch slept comfortably as the couches are really nice. I do suggest using the washer and dryers by 7pm at the latest, as it can be a bit noisy if you’re trying to sleep, but isn’t a problem if you’re just hanging out or watching a movie. There were nearby grassy spots for our dogs to relieve themselves, and the location is close to some good beaches and eateries. I wish I tried the cafe across the street, but that’s a trip for next time. Overall, I’d stay here again :)

Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! We're so glad the home was the perfect spot for your Mother's Day getaway, and that you enjoyed the space, the cleanliness, and the convenient location near the beaches and local eateries. We really appreciate you sharing the honest notes on the sleeping setup and laundry timing — feedback like this is genuinely helpful for future guests planning their stay. Sounds like the cafe across the street is a great reason for a return visit, and we'd love to host you (and the pups!) again next time.

Just a quick getaway

Very spacious. Plenty of room for everyone to have their own space after spending a whole day at the beach together. The host has lots of small touches to make the stay a lovely experience. Best thing about this location is its right behind Island Joe’s coffee! Just a short 3 mins walk to enjoy the best cup of coffee ever!

The pictures on VRBO are much better than the actual place. The bedroom carpeting is dirty and needs replacing. The same with the living room furniture which as uncomfortable and worn. The washer was very loud. The back of the property isn’t as nice a pictured. The positives is that the unit was priced pretty well and it was very spacious.

Property was clean, Pet-friendly, and we did use the pool. The pool was immaculate. Crystal Clear. The property was very comfortable with modern amenities and furniture. Check-in, check-out was smooth, and through the Avantstay site, I had all the information I needed for the stay. Everything was covered, and the text message reminders were helpful as well. I would recommend this property. Outside of the property, the neighbors were quiet and were friendly when outside walking their dogs. The location was excellent for walking to a nearby strip with a CVS, souvenir shops, and various other shops. With a vehicle, the main beach area was only 3-4 minutes away, with the area you needed to get to visible from the property. About one mile down the main road you can turn left and it leads straight to the beach, or go straight and the supermarket is right there. Location was excellent and we could find everything we needed at all times. We also had an event to attend in downtown Corpus Christi, which was easily possible due to being only a 20-ish minute drive from the property on one main highway.
