Nice play to stay, right on the water and great location. We were minutes from the beach. The condo is perfect for what I needed, Robert checked in on us and we felt very safe and secure.
The home was exactly what 3 men needed who were in town to fish all weekend. Quick and easy access to tie up the boat and walk 18 steps and inside to take a nap. We have already booked this place for next month. Robert, is a very good host.
Great location. Loved the water just out the back door. Owner is very attentive to any needs that may arise. If you are looking for an affordable great place to fish while at home and a golf cart ride to the beach, this is the place! We caught trout, mangrove snapper, sting ray, lady fish, and perch off the dock. It is no frills but a great time for the price.
Loved the location, nice fishing and kayaking off canal. Host was excellent in communication, felt safe, and very quiet. Will return to this VRBO when returning to this area of Texas Gulf Coast. Thank you
Our choice of this location was heavily influenced by access to the water. Everything was as advertised. We launched our boat at a private ramp 10 houses down from the property and parked the trailer in the empty lot next door. This was a huge advantage to us, allowing my wife to take the truck without worry of hauling a trailer. There was a nice grocery store, hardware/ everything store, convenient stores and beach access all within a 5 or so minute drive. There was deep water from just off the pier all the way to the intercoastal and easy bay access, bait shops accessible by boat within a short distance. I can't speak about the fishing quality as it rained the entire time we were there but we still had a great time. Like anywhere you stay there are things that could be better but we have zero complaints, if/when we return to the area I would stay here again.
We had a great time staying at this condo! Our family came over to fish with us off the back dock which was a great time! The place was quiet and was the perfect little getaway spot!
This was the perfect property for our family of 6. Plenty of space, clean property and only a 3 minute drive to whitecap beach. The the dock at the property was perfect for fishing to keep the kids busy in between activities. The owner was very communicative and while we did not run into any issues, we were comfortable knowing that the owner was very responsive and ready to help if the need arose. We looking forward to booking again in the future.
Our 2 month stay at this first floor condo was very nice! The condo is right on the water, in a quiet neighborhood, it was clean and comfortable, we had good communication with the owner, and are looking forward to going back for a return visit. Thank you Robert for letting us use your condo for a second time! Joan and Earl
Some repairs needed. Most notably, dishwasher, patio door and blinds, and dumpster replacements. Bedding was clean and comfortable, laundry detergent, not furnished. Outside decking under construction and stair rails to dock not present.
Owner was very helpful and rescued me from water, enabling me to get out on dock, without damaging my sail and board.
Great quiet neighborhood Easy check in/out
Owner was flexible on check out hours
The beds are very comfortable
If you have a boat it’s docked 20 ft from the back door
The boat ramp is 100 yards away
Very convenient
We will seek to rent this place again ASAP
Had a wonderful time at the property. The top deck was very nice and my kid fished the whole time off the bottom deck. Looking forward to staying here again.

Not as nice as pictures
While the owner I talked to was super nice and helpful the condo wasn't what we expected.The inside wasnt as nice as pictured. The interior needed lots of updates. I dont mind older fixtures but the stove was rusting, the vents were rusting, and several pieces of tile were missing off the kitchen countertops. The ceiling in the bathroom was peeling in small sections and the vent fan was dirty. They gave us 5 bath towells for a family of 4 and I specifically told them when renting we had kids that wanted to swim. The pull out couch was super thin but worked for a kid but we only had sheets for it no extra blankets to be found. We only recieved one diswasher powder packet for a week which meant we had to hand wash dishes because we had to run the dishwasher before we left or pay a fee. They did give us 2 tide pods but that covered accidental spills, I couldn't wash towells to have fresh ones or re wear an outfit. We had to use the TP sparingly because they gave us 3 rolls of single ply for the week total. (We have 3 girls) this becomes an issue. It didnt feel very clean either. It could just be the way it is in that area but the floor was gritty on bare feet the first evening there, the couch and sheets had stains, and the vents were dirty. They need new pictures and new cleaners. Also if you stay read their rules because there are fees for not following rules, not taking out trash, breaking a dish, losing a utensil, not running the dishwasher etc.
We stayed here to be close by to some friends in the area. Was as advertised and very clean. Check in was easy and communication from the owner was great!
We enjoyed our stay. Our little ones enjoyed fishing off the dock. Close to the beach. Good restaurants around. The people were very quick to respond to any questions we had!
Was exactly what we were looking for.
If you are looking for a great place to stay near EVERYTHING then this is the place. No issues with anything. We will stay here again.
Can't express how perfect the location is, 4 mins from the beach entrances, 4 mins from restaurants, shopping, not far pass the bridge. Beautiful spot, peaceful and quiet at night. The family really enjoyed the quick getaway. Communication was fast and reliable.
