Amazing property

We had a wonderful stay. Townhome was beautiful. Facilities were great. Property management was on site and easily available to answer any questions. Next time I will book directly with the property company to avoid the ridiculous VRBO charges that are tacked on. I would definitely stay there again if I ever decide to visit Corpus Christi again.

Great Location

The condo was in a great location! Has good amenities, pool with slide and pickle ball court were fun for the kids! They loved the foosball table also. Condo itself was quaint and everything you need for your stay. They did provide 2 dishwasher pods and 1 laundry packet. If you plan to stay more than 2 or 3 days, and do laundry, then I would recommend purchasing a small stash. Also, we didn’t have many bath towels, 1 towel per person for our 4 night stay. Overall, the place was clean, nice, close proximity to the beach and had great amenities in the facility. We come stay again!

There for a wedding and locationally it was great. The pool was great too. It’s really just the floor.

Fathers Day Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay! The condo was Comfy and cozy! We had everything we needed! Fridge was a pretty good size. Had everything we needed to cook. Everything worked just fine. The only thing I can say that can be fixed is the washer smelled like old water and made a loud noise when washing probably need to change it out. My 5 year old did not want to leave! We love the pool the slides are so fun! We love the convenience our family can park their boat where we are staying. This is our 2nd time staying here and look forward to more stays in the future.

Great place

We loved this place...great location close to the beach but on the lake water so you can watch boats, paddleboarding, the sunset, etc. This particular unit is a close walk to the pool and very close to the docks/bbq pits. The pools were great, although I do wish the main one was a little bigger. The game room and sunset decks were great for the kids. They had several family events while we were there - snowcones, smores, and karaoke night. The bunk bed room was perfect for the kids and all beds were very comfortable. Only complaint was the kitchen was lacking basic stuff like coffee filters and salt/pepper...I feel like most rentals have that in a stocked kitchen so we didn't pack it. We left what we bought behind for the next renters though. Great place and we'd love to return!

Wow this place is brand new! Loved the decor, layout, and amenities. Loved having a washer/dryer and small backyard. AC worked well and we had no issues with anything. We even had a hose outside to rinse off sand. The beach is a 2 minute drive and is close to grocery store, gas station, and restaurants. Port Aransas was 25 minutes away. The pools were amazing and the fishing at the dock was a plus. We would to come back!
