Nice Weekend Getaway

Overall, great accommodations, very close to the beach, and nice family pool area! The only disappointment was the Pacman arcade didn't work; work order out it but being a holiday weekend no one came out during our stay

Good community but

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 do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I had a great experience at this place. The location is fantastic, and the floor plan is really well-designed. The place was clean and nice, but the furniture was a bit dated and old. Our mattress was terrible, and we couldn’t sleep at all. However, everything else was great. I think they just need to update the mattresses and bed frames to make them more comfortable. They should also replace the sheets to make the place even better. Overall, I had a positive experience, and I would definitely recommend this place to others..

Rain rain go away

Easy access to beach. Stayed indoors for the most part because of rain. There was no grass for the dog on the premise! We had to drive off premise to find some grass for dog which was a big inconvenience!

Clean and family friendly

Clean, family friendly complex with great communication from the owner/management. Whitecap area beaches aren’t my favorite, but they are a very short walk away. We love Mustang State Park and Padre National Park and this complex is a close drive to both. Great pool and playground in the complex, especially for families. Only con is the VRBO listing doesn’t state the pet fee. It’s $100 per pet, which you find out when you sign the rental agreement.

Very nice place and location.

The location, condition and decor of the property were all great. The king bed was comfortable. Check in could not have been easier. We requested tea kettle and it was brought to the condo right away. The only downside was the lack of dishes and condition of the pots and pans in the unit. It would have been impossible to prepare meals there if we wanted to.

Mini getaway

Overall the place is nice. Communication is prompt. There were some things that need some improvement like: being more transparent with pet fees on the website. We didn't know that we have to pay a lot extra per pet on top of what we already paid, and we only found out after we already booked so that's another expense for a dog sitter that we didn't plan for. Also, on the second day, there was another family who was trying to get in the property while we were gone to the beach, when we still have until the next day to stay there. That was kinda weird telling them that the place is still occupied. Other than those things, the place is clean, it's very close to the beach and the pool is nice. My four year old got so fascinated with the Pac-Man game that's in the room and won't leave it.
