Great Communication with the owner, our stay exceeded our expectations. It had everything we needed to make us comfortable. The walk to the beach was lovely, the bungalow was comfortable, the AC worked great and the dehumidifier was an added bonus. Our stay was perfect and we can't wait to come back!

Large feeling studio

Easy walk to the beach. Clean!! Kitchen had all we needed for a simple meal. The studio bungalow felt really spacious inside. Alene was quick and easy to communicate with. We had a small plumbing issue that she had fixed within the hour. The studio is quite even on the ground floor and across from the pool. The porch is a great place to unwind.

If Only the Weather had Cooperated

This is a very nice studio apartment- perfect for a couple.The facilities are very nice (although the pool and hot tub were closed for repairs- they should be very nice now). Location is very close the beach. The weather did not cooperate, (but they can't help that)- Even though the weather was not good the studio was very comfortable and convenient for excursions to Port Aransas and Corpus Christi. Alene, the host, was very responsive and on top of things. We would definetely stay here again.

Unpleasurable

This property went down from the last visit we had in 2001 the maintenance as far as the laminate floor needs to be updated. You can tell that the flooring has lifted it echoes throughout the property. The remote control was damaged on the back, therefore the batteries did not stay inside and it was unusable on the patio. Two pigeons lived on there, so there was bird poop and trash on the patio. The patio chair was damaged therefore, a Hubby couldn’t sit out there with me. The tub stopper is not in the tub, but on the tub ledge, the refrigerator is stained on the outside.

Annual October trip

We go to Padre every October for our annual family vacation. Decided to switch it up and try this condo out, it was perfect for what we needed! Only downfall was that the dryers in the wash room weren’t working (that’s the property’s deal though) other than that it was great and so affordable.
