Great Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The properties that we rented were accurately described including the location and amenities. The properties were clean and well maintained although one units AC was not as effective as others, we rented four properties. I would recommend this property. We enjoyed being close to Schlitterbahn Water Park. Restaurants were awesome in the area: Blacks BBQ, Krause Café, Adobe Café, Buttermilk Café especially good.

Great Place - Safety Concerns

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The place was clean and comfortable with a great view. However, it is also advertised as having security guards 24-7. We heard screaming so loud it woke us up from our sleep and we called the cops. The cops mentioned they had been called multiple times by other guests before arriving. I gave the information I could, but I never saw a security guard and the screams I heard made me very concerned for the lady's safety. Safety trumps comfort and not sure if I will stay at this location again.

Need instructions

From the online pictures, I had the impression we could get in the river easily from the property. That was not the case. My older husband was with us even though he was not feeling well. Therefore, he wanted to lay on the couch and watch TV. Because we are not familiar with the kind of service, we need to written detail instructions But we could not find any in the condo. The property management team was very understanding and trying to help us.

Super close to everything!

Super close to schlitterbahn, very nice grounds/pools. Clean and spacious unit and convenient after hours check-in process which we really appreciated! Would definitely stay here again!!! Only complaints are minor: 1) pillows are all a little flat and could be replaced for beds, 2) fire alarm went off at 4am our first night (we called line and reported alarm) and neighboring unit said this happened the night prior as well, and 3) fridge and freezer were a little fish smelling/stinky and could use some fresh baking soda/cleaning. Thank you for a nice stay!!

The condo “Five O’Clock Somewhere” is perfect no matter time of the year you go.

We loved this condo. Short distance to everywhere. The street the condo is on runs straight into Schlitterbahn’s parking lot, Literally a 2 minute walk. The condo is very spacious and so comfortable with great property and water excess to the river. I highly recommend staying there and I will stay there again when going back to New Braunfels!

Nice but not worth the money

We only spent three days in this property. The place was huge and very clean. The Guadalupe river was not flowing very well so we had to float the Comal and San Marcos rivers instead. Therefore we could not utilize the in/out river access of the property. This is no fault of the property. Since we were on the river everyday, we did not use the pools or hot tub either. It was a very expensive place to rest your head for a few hours.

Did not bother me just letting you know. I enjoyed my stay. When I come back I’d like the same condo H302. Thank you

Great little place

This was great to stay because of the Comal closure. We put in at Rockin R in Gruene and floated down to the condos. Took about 6 hours, but it was a good float. The condo was super clean and was wonderful. My only suggestion to make it better is to have the "social distance" check in at the actual property instead of going to the management office to get the paperwork and wristbands. Other than that everything was great.

This place is great!

My husband and I plus our two friends wanted to get away and go float the river. This place was perfect! We will definitely be booking again! Possibly before summer is over. :) The third floor kind of stunk to go up and down (elevator wasn’t working) but that isn’t the owners fault. Overall- book this place!!

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 recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property was very nice. We had several problems during our stay. Most were fixed quickly. However, we were on the 3 floor and the elevator was out of commission at least 2 twice each week. The heated pool was very nice, but you had to walk 300 yards to get to it, and no bathroom by the pool.

We had tons of fun! The parking is right by the elevator as well as the condo once you reach the third floor. Very nice and clean, the dinning area was a little small but manageable. Master is super spacious. Overall it is a great rental!

Also there was no WiFi in our unit and we had to rely on our cell hot spots to get any internet. We understand that might be added now. Otherwise our two month stay went very well.
