Jimmy Buffet vibes!

We had such a great time in Corpus!! The property was perfect!! Clean, well stocked, extra comfy bed, A/C worked great, and the perfect location! We didn’t make it to the pool, but it looked inviting nonetheless. I highly recommend this property! We will definitely stay here again! 💕

Perfect Break Getaway!

We enjoyed our stay during Thanksgiving break! We enjoyed the heated pool, fishing, game room, workout room, decks, grills, basketball and pickle ball courts. There was so much to do and such a great location. The condo was perfect and comfy for our family of four. Condo had everything we needed and was nice , clean and comfortable! We would definitely go back.

Cute condo!

The condo was very clean and cute, just as advertised! There was even a bonus twin Murphy bed in the living room, which was a nice surprise for our family of six! It was a nice walk to the beach and the pool on the property was perfect for the kids. The only complaint was there was no toilet paper to be found anywhere in the condo, which I'm sure was just a misfortunate oversight. We had a great time on our stay.

Bright & cheery

This property if very cute and bright & cheery. However, it really isn't for seniors staying more than a few days. We were there about 6 weeks. The bed is extremely hard to change the linens. The furniture in the living area is quite uncomfortable and the stools at the island are also uncomfortable. The location is good...not too far from the beach. For young people it's great but for people in their seventies or eighties it's not great for a long stay. The kitchen was well furnished with most anything you'd need to prepare meals. There are plenty of towels and soaps and shampoos were furnished. Overall it's a nice place and I would recommend it to young people.

The kids loved the pool and slides. Too bad there's no actual hot tub for windy evenings. Hate the super thin toilet paper everywhere but I guess that's the standard now. Even though we mentioned that we are bringing 4 kids with us, there were only 4 towels in our unit. Thankfully I brought towels with us, and on the 2nd day we discovered the supply closet in the bathroom had more. Because it had a pin on the handle I assumed that it wasn't for our use. Until my son tried our front door code on it and it worked. Otherwise cozy and comfortable. Just don't bring cans bc they don't have actual can openers in the otherwise fairly well stocked kitchen. I hate plastic dishes but that's all they have so be forewarned. Utensils are metal, mugs are ceramic but glasses are plastic too.

Great location on the island!

Loved our cozy cottage for our family of 6. Had all the basics and conveniences needed. Had room to park our car & golf cart and the back patio with hammock was a great touch!
