Great family place on the water
We loved our stay right on the canal. Tons of things to do right at the house with kayaks, standing boards, floats, a grill and the public beach is only 5 minutes away. We loved the Texas Sealife Center that rescues turtles and other animals too. My kids loved the bunk beds and patios too. There's salt and pepper available but no other condiments (just fyi since all places are different). Kids bedroom is up one flight of stairs and main bedroom is up 2 flights. We'd love to go back!

Property is great. Vacasa is not.
I have a mixed review about this vacation rental. The location is wonderful. The home itself is very nice. It is not the most updated but is very clean and has a very peaceful vibe. However communication with Vacasa is terrible. They manage to make the experience of working with them feel like reaching out to a nameless uncaring call center. I had several messages go without answer for over a week prior to the trip. They encourage you to use the call center but even then you are out on hold forever. When I finally got through to someone using the text service they acted like they hadn’t even seen my full message and only addressed part of our problem. Many reviews say the door lock doesn’t not work and they are right it does not work. It’s maybe a $50 fix. But although many reviews have said the same thing vacasa ignores the issue. I feel bad for the home owner that they are still choosing to use vacasa. Ultimately I don’t think I would go with a rental that uses a large property management company again. I much prefer having direct communication with the owner because they actually care about the renter. But the home is nice and it was great to be able to use the kayaks and paddle boards provided. The spot is incredibly peaceful. There are other condos in the same area that are owner run and I would recommend going with them.

Couldn't enter the premises
Front door combination lock did not work. Had to call for help. Changing the combination on the phone didn't help. Finally opened a lock box and used a key to open the front door. Spent the whole week with only one key to open the door. Unacceptable situation.

Less than great
The good: The beds were clean. The house in general was acceptably clean, though it needed a deep clean and dusting. Good location. The kayaks and paddleboards are ok, if you are going to use them for several days, or if that is enough for who is staying here, but honestly, don't let it sway you to rent this property, because there are a lot of places to rent them. The bad: Even though the outside temps were only mid to low 80's the AC struggled to keep the house at 75, even though we closed all the curtains to block the sun. The house is set up so the bottom level is where the thermostat is, and if that says 75, the middle level (bedroom with bunk bed) and the upper level (master) are sweltering. The upper bedroom does not have any windows that open so there is no hope of a cooling breeze when the outside temps come down. The couches are so worn that when you sit, you just keep going down. The master bed has such body divots in it that it is incredibly uncomfortable. In general, run down and old, stained chair cushions, stained carpet, peeling paint on trim. The pool was NOT clean and well kept. Vacasa left us a dirty stained pool bag with clean towels, but the bag was quite off-putting. Please notice that while it looks like there are a certain number of reviews, that many are doubles, and this is bumping the rating up. I noticed that and decided to overlook it, and regret it. I would absolutely not stay here again.

Boat trailer Tag
Called the main office asking for a boat trailer tag that was not in the proper place where stated online. Never was contacted for a promised call back. Ended up making my own tag for my boat trailer. It was sort of an inconvenience worrying about my boat trailer being towed. Overall our stay was great.

Great Property.
This was an excellent choice for my small family. There were me, my wife and two children. We wanted to spend alot of time fishing so this location was perfect for that. We fished right in the backyard and also walked around the corner and fished the open bay. I will be renting this property every time I come down if possible.

short family getaway
Our little 3 person family was looking for a small condo to rent for short getaway to Padre Island. I ran across this one and picked it based on the fact it was close to the water (on the water) and it's close access to Padre Island National Seashore. The unit was clean, and plenty big enough for the 3 of us. It was stocked with linens, dishes, pots, pans etc. etc. The balcony with table and grill overlooking the water was very pleasing as well. My daughter enjoyed the paddle boards that came with the rental. Price was on par with other units in the area. I would definitely stay there again.

Great location
The property location was perfect for a beach trip nicely tucked away in a quiet neighborhood on the canals and was only 5mins (by car) to whitecap beach. The kitchen was stocked with enough pans and utensils to make anything you want and they provided dishwashing pods and liquid. They provided fishing poles, kayaks and other beach toys only problem was there were enough kayaks to fit 4 people but only 3 life jackets. Other than that we had a great time the property was clean and family friendly, the beds were super comfy and I loved watching the fish jumping in the canal. Just and FYI you need a permit to park on whitecap beach it’s only $10 and can be found at stripes and HEB.
