The views!!
We loved the views and being on the water. Wished we had our fishing poles as fish were jumping and pelicans diving into the water. The place was a little out dated and no water pressure in the bathroom at all. It was cheap and would stay again as the view was worth the stay.

Remember Parking is Not Included
I will start with positives. I loved the location overall. The people on the holiday park were all openly friendly. I do wish there were place to eat and or drink, that were within a reasonable walking distance. For meals out we were forced to drive.
My main negative was the $80 dollar parking fee and facilities fee. I only finding out about it the day before arriving. We never used the facilities so that was useless fee for me and my spouse.
The door code to the unit arrived on the morning of my arrival to my rental. My UK mobile provider did not provide mobile data in the US, so I did not have internet to access the door code. When I asked the lady at check-in if I could use their internet to access my mail to get the code I was told no. I had to go and find a place with public wifi to access my e-mail to get the door code. Luckily there is a Walmart near with public wi-fi.
I don't blame vrbo for the issue regarding Wi-Fi, it would have been helpful if they had sent the door code via email and text. That would have been really helpful.
Overall, I had a wonderful trip so it was not all bad.

Needs Updating
The best thing about this property was the view of the Gulf and Space X. Also the deck was awesome. Having a washer and dryer was a big plus. However, this park model needs some updating. Not all the blinds worked; there was a stain in the toilet; there was limited kitchenware and cleaning supplies. During a strong rain storm, the vent fan in the bathroom leaked. We would suggest a tv in the bedroom. Only one tv caused some disagreements! Parking was ok since we had just one vehicle. Two vehicles would have been a challenge. Not sure we would spend a month like we did this year. The view, the deck and washer/dryer were BIG pluses. There are a lot of items the need cleaning and updating.

Didn’t meet expectations
The house was clean. For the price, it didn’t meet expectations. We booked this property so we could fish from the back deck at night. The back porch light didn’t work so we couldn’t do that. I called twice about it. I was told that it would be fixed and offered flash lights, which wouldn’t help with night fishing. After calling twice, on two separate days, no one ever came. Check out time is 10am, which is pretty early. We were denied a late check out due to other renters coming later that day. Check in time isn’t until 4pm. Since we, the guests, are expected to take out the trash, wash the dishes, and gather all the linens, I feel like we could have been afforded an extra 30 minutes. The couch is very uncomfortable as well.
I know that a lot of this may sound petty, but I would have gotten a different property if I knew we couldn’t use the property for the very reason I booked it for.

Average stay.
The property was nice, scenery was great. This was our toddlers first fishing outing. We had seen in the reviews that the bed was uncomfortable, well that was putting it lightly, the bed would make a loud squeaking noise when getting on the bed. Roaches was a problem too, one had landed on me and scared me. Fishing was nice for my boys and was safe because of the fence. Overall, outdoors was much better than indoors.

Wonderful view
The view was so peaceful and absolutely phenomenal. Great for nature watching. Wi-fi worked great. Air conditioner worked well. No problems with the television. The pictures posted are technically accurate, but they're outdated. When you go on vacation, the last thing you want is to toss and turn all night, but that’s exactly what happened due to the quality of the bed. Unsure why they charge a cleaning fee since it was need of cleaning upon arrival. The floor felt dirty and the bathroom had a bad odor. Thankfully, I had my own supplies. There was a bud light 6-pack with a bottle in one of the cabinets which appears to have been there for a long time. The shower handle needs to be replaced- we had trouble operating it due to it being messed up. The blinds were a mess and we had to straighten them out- one set isn’t even attached to the string. Most drawers are hard to open/close- they get stuck. The kitchen chairs are uncomfortable, and one kept coming apart at the bottom. Although this is not specified in the listing, I expected a washer and dryer in the unit due to someone else's review that mentioned there being one in-unit. If this is in the unit, it may possibly be located behind a door in the hallway area- I wouldn't know because it was locked. We had to purchase light bulbs because some of the bulbs were out and the extra lighting was needed. Wasn’t sure how to change the bulbs on the patio, so was unable to utilize this area at night as we had anticipated. I tried contacting Vacasa but gave up after being on hold for 40+ minutes. Overall, we made the best of our stay. This could easily be a 4- or 5-star property if they had a better mattress and fixed some of the issues within the house. I would be open to staying here again if the mattress alone was replaced. The best thing about this property is the 5-star view!

No model home and uncomfortable
I think the owner slapped together some old trailer pieces and had them put together and painted with white paint to make them look good in pictures. All the seating was uncomfortable so this place would not be good for any older adults looking for a comfortable place to relax. My husband had to pull me up out of the couch. We had to fight with the rocking recliner to get foot part back down. This is a nice retirement community, but this is not a place older people would want to rent. We left several days early.

Relaxing Stay in Sunny Port Isabel
We enjoyed our stay for the most part at this property on Long Island Village. The unit is basically an extended mobile home, but it was clean and has a great deck that overlooks a waterway (but not the bay). The bathroom was very small, but otherwise the place had the basics we wanted for a relaxing stay. It's in a quiet gated community of retirees and winter snowbirds, which we preferred over the rowdy college crowd on SP Island over spring break. The village has an indoor and outdoor pool, hot tub, tennis courts and several amenities that we didn't take advantage of. Comfortable for a couple to stay at, with a queen size bed in the bedroom, but the sofa bed in the living room was uncomfortable, either as a bed or a couch for that matter. And more bedding and linens would be appreciated. We had to call for sofa bed sheets, which they promptly delivered. There is a washer and dryer but no dishwasher, although they provided dishwashing soap pods for some reason. It's not fancy, but it was more spacious and comfortable than a hotel room. Note that they charge a $80 community fee over and above the booking fees, which you pay when you check in.
