Perfect Home near the beach!!!

What an incredible host! This home was absolutely perfect for our stay — spotless, beautifully maintained, and exactly as described (even better in person!). Communication was quick and easy, and she went above and beyond to make sure we felt welcomed and cared for. We had an amazing time and can’t wait to come back. If you’re looking for a peaceful, relaxing getaway in a beautiful home, this is it. Thank you again, we truly appreciate your hospitality!

Not the cleanest

Despite the fact that we were without a/c for the first 20 or so hours, the host was on top of getting things taken care of to get it fixed for the remainder of our stay. However.. the cleanliness of this home was not up to our standards. The A/C guy mentioned how tough it is to get good cleaning people in this area but the amount of sticky spots on furniture, makeup smears on walls, hair strands on shower walls, and hair balls that managed to roll out from under the bed were a little too much for us. The house itself is beautiful but we honestly felt a little disgusting in it. The amount of dust made it seem like the house hadn’t been cleaned in a good while. Other than that, our stay was overall pleasant. I’d suggest the host find different cleaners, or do a follow up after her cleaners leave before allowing someone to stay in the home.

Good for the money

The communication on this property was stellar. The location is spot on as well. They do need to get a handy man to come and fix a few things. Prepare to battle the washer/ dryer and dishwasher, they’re both half way working. The bottom tea lights, guest bedroom tv, master bedroom fan, and master bathroom door are all broken. All in all, if you’re looking for a fancy home to lounge in, pass on this one. If you want a place to eat and sleep that’s close to the beach, this is your spot!

The perfect house for younger adults!

We had a fantastic weekend stay here. The house was very clean and had plenty of room for everyone. We also brought our two dogs and they had a blast! Hanging out downstairs at the tiki bar and grill was so much fun! They had pretty much anything you’d need for a beach vacation home including kitchenware and appliances, towels, and a washer/dryer! There was even seasoning for our burgers, which was awesome! The beach is also a short and straight walk. We would definitely recommend for people to book here!

Valentines getaway

The house was very nice and very spacious. The location of the house is perfect and just down the street from the BIG STORE. The beach access is a major plus. We had an amazing and relaxing time away from Houston. We will definitely be renting this house again in the future.

Nice cabin

The cabin was nice. Linens were good. Once we realized the sharp knife was in the dishwasher we were able to chop stuff up to cook. Also it was nice that we could walk over to get a golf cart. The cabin was perfect for our needs

Perfect for a small family!

My wife and two kids (both under 3) absolutely loved our stay here! House was super clean and was plenty of room for us 4. The 7ish minute walk to the beach wasn’t too bad, but I could see it being a challenge without a wagon or golf cart with 2 or more smaller kiddos to carry there, along with beach toys and other accessories. We had a wagon and it wasn’t a problem at all! If you’re planning on renting a golf cart while you’re there, there is an excellent golf cart rental/fireworks store located right next to the property owned by some great people! The house did get a little cold with the A/C on, but we were able to find blankets in a clothes drawer in one of the rooms on our second day there! The host was also very helpful to us and made things super easy with check in! Would highly recommend staying here!
