Week beach vaca
Booking was easy. Online info was accurate. The location was perfect for short walk to the beach even the three year old wasn’t complaining. Place was clean and well setup. Stayed for a week with four kids and seven grandkids. It was perfect! The only issues were kiddie pool accessories didn’t work and gates were hard to open house door lock also had issues and we got locked out once. Overall great place and I’d stay again!

Texas getaway for family reunion
The home was beautiful and close to the beach. There were 10 of us and we had more beds than we needed. Everyone enjoyed this cute condo as our temporary home away from home for a few days.

Enjoyed our stay!
Plenty of room for our families and friends, kitchen on the third floor is definitely different but works out. Lots of stairs though, not ideal for toddlers. Easy and convenient walk to the beach!

Large family getaway
This property was perfect for our large family with room to spare! The location was perfect for day and night trips to the beach. Away from the hustle and bustle of traffic, mornings and nights were perfect on the patio. Road access through the back gate was a plus. Having both pools to use was great! The heated pool was a little too warm for day use but made night swims perfect! Communication with management was easy and when we needed anything they were quick to reply and get things done. Everything worked great for us! We will definitely be staying again!

Awesome
Excellent location and comfortable for a large group. We were a group of 6 families and everyone enjoyed the stay. The only drawback was to have the kitchen on the third floor but we could understand why the living and kitchen is on their floor - amazing views.
Overall the best experience.
