As described and accessible!

The condo was exactly as described in the listing and pictures. I wanted to stay somewhere handicap/wheelchair accessible and this condo was great: No stairs entryway, two close reserved parking spots, a walk-in shower (with small lip only), and a spacious living room. The location is also great. It is only a very short drive to the beach which is perfect for the price.

Spring Break trip for Tucker Family

We LOVED this property and the owners! Easy check in, great communication, we had everything we needed, extra paper towels and washing detergent was a big plus! The location is near everything you may need and just a quick drive to white cap beach! Plenty of room for our kiddos. The pool was really nice and well kept! It was very quiet in the evenings and we felt very safe. We will book again with Ruben and Deanna! Thank you so much!

The hosts thought of all of the things we might need while vacationing, including sand toys and beach gear. There was more than enough space for my family of seven. The three tvs in the unit were great for when we ready to unwind at the end of the night and were all able to watch our favorite shows

Very nice cabana nice stay

To start the pictures are accurate and the house is as described. We loved the location it is on the island outside of the city but a easy trip back to attractions in the city. The cabana was clean and very well stocked. We loved setting out on the patio and eating at the outside table. When we arrived I had an issue with the WIFI and my call to the owners was promptly answered and the issue was resolved. We would recommend this property to anyone coming to the area and would rent it again if we came back to the area.

Home away from home

I was constantly amazed and impressed by the touches that made this property comfortable and inviting. They thought of everything! I’ve never stayed in such a well-stocked, clean, cozy place before. The owners were a joy to deal with, the place was quiet and had all the amenities we hoped for, and it was close to everything we needed. Don’t hesitate - this is the place!! We had such a great vacation that we’re planning to make it a yearly thing, and we’re excited to stay at this home every year. My only wish is that the mattresses are updated soon (showing their age!), but the rest of the experience was so fabulous that I’d stay here again in a heartbeat even if they weren’t. Thank you for sharing your fabulous property with us and for making our time on Padre so wonderful. We’ll be back!
