About this property

Ocean View of Beautiful Sunrises over the Gulf - Beach out the Back Door

I'm sitting on the couch typing this on my laptop, watching and listening to the waves out the large patio door.

Or, I could walk a few steps onto the balcony that overlooks the ocean and see a beautiful courtyard with grills, pool and hot tub. The security gate off the courtyard takes you directly to the beach.

Re-modeled kitchen with granite countertops, new backsplash and stainless appliances in December 2014.

Both bathrooms upgraded in 2014 with walk-in shower in master bath (see pictures).

Walking distance to many restaurants; some as close as a block a way. 'The Wave' is free public transportation that goes all over the island as well as over the bridge to Port Isabel that has a Wal-Mart SuperCenter and HEB for your shopping needs.

Free WiFi in condo; Fully equipped kitchen.

ENJOY!!

This condo has a great view and easy access to the beach which is what we were looking for. The host was communicative and helpful. Space is tight, and the kitchen is pretty basic. Don't plan to do too much cooking.

Our location was excellent. Close to the beach and walking distance to several establishments. The condo clean but had trouble with TV in living room all week long. Also there was not toilet paper when we arrived. I understand you are responsible for this but a roll to start out with would be nice.

Condo was in a great location. It was a short walk to restaurants and entertainment. It had a great view of the water and was a short walk to the beach. We enjoyed using the pool and the hot tub. The condo was clean and well kept. We enjoyed our stay.
