Hands down one of the nicest vacation rentals we've stayed at. The location was perfect. Right on the canal with kayaks to explore and just around the corner was this beautiful quiet beach. The home was just excellent all around. Stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, plenty of towels, outdoor shower to (rinse off that sand haha) great seating areas inside and on the screened porch. We just really enjoyed our time here. Our host Heidi was super communicative as well. Highly recommend.

Great family, friendly house!

Great location, walking distance to the beach public access. Fished in the canal off the pier, lots of room underneath the house for entertaining. Equipped with all the things you need for outdoor fun. House has two kayaks available, ping-pong, table, beach chairs, and wagon. Fully equipped kitchen, plenty of towels, and a large screened in porch. Definitely one of our favorites!

Wonderful Getaway

We loved our week at Alligator Point! The house was spotless and was also extremely comfy. We really loved spending time on the porch. The elevator was also an added plus as my parents visited with us (ages 70 plus). Heidi has thought of every detail with this vacation home. You won’t be disappointed in booking with her!

Great Place to Stay

Happy Hours was an amazing place to stay! The elevator was super helpful for our mother who uses a walker and with loading and unloading luggage and groceries. The screened in patio was our favorite place to hang out, very serene surroundings! The home itself was spacious, clean, and very cozy!! Well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. If we're ever in the area again, we'd 100% want to book Happy Hours again!

More than just Happy Hours

What an amazing property, we will be back! The home is everything we could have hoped for and more. The elevator made unpacking and packing so easy. The home is very clean and has everything you need and kid friendly. The owner is wonderful, and easy to get ahold of. The kids had the best time on the kayaks and fishing off the dock.

Upon walking in, the home looks just like a picture from a magazine. It is so beautiful and clean with ALL the comforts of home. If there was anything not at my fingertips I cannot imagine what it would have been. Heidi has TRULY thought of EVERYTHING. She stayed in contact to ensure our expectations were met.

Better than expected! Great value!

We booked a last minute coastal getaway and had so many Happy Hours at Happy Hours! It looks super cute online, but even better in person! The huge back porch was perfect sipping coffee and wine. I felt safe allowing our kids to walk to the beach - the walk is maybe 5 minutes. I'm really particular about cleanliness - it was really clean! It is clear the sellers put a lot of thought and pride into their home. We look forward to returning!

A Beautiful Versatile Location

If you are looking for a place to connect with family in a quiet neighborhood but still be close to day-tripping the Big Bend attractions look no further. The house is beautifully decorated- has a fantastic layout and you can’t say enough about the large screened in porch to sip a cocktail and play some cards with the fam. It was a great experience all around- from the property to the hosts!

New Favorite Place

We've been going to Panacea for 20 years & this was our first time actually staying on Alligator point. We always just drive in to the beach, but OMG this was the WAY to do it. Walking down to the beach in the morning with coffee or at night with some cocktails was SO fun. It was such an adorable house -- perfect shade on the dock, quick walk to the beach (5 min max) & loads of space to spread out! I really can't say enough about the house & all the things there are to do! They've thought of everything--kayaks, games, porch swing, beach towels! This is our family's new favorite spot. For sure. thanks so much for sharing this amazing find with us:)
