Access to the beach (walkway through the dunes) was only two houses down. It was nicely decorated and had a wonderful big deck in front where we spent most of our time. It is a family friendly beach but quiet at night. It was very clean except the soft goods- the carpets and upholstered furniture need a good deep cleaning. We had a small plumbing issue but the management company was very responsive. Overall pleased with our stay. We miss the sound of the waves. ##### Sean Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dan J Oct 9, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Amazing Location ##### Dan J Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heather Sep 16, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Great property! Well kept. The only small issue we had is they have a NEST thermostat with presettings and we would find ourselves adjusting it as it would always go back to the presetting every couple of hours. Minor inconvenience, but otherwise the property was fabulous! ##### Heather Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Jeannine Jul 3, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Great location! Kitchen has everything you need. Primary bedroom was large enough to use 2 pack-n-plays and still have plenty of room. The primary bathroom did have an issue with the shower not working well and on the second day some ants were in the kitchen. We kept all food items off of the counters and in the refrigerator so the ants couldn’t get in them. We notified the property managers so hopefully they will take care of that. Otherwise it was very clean and comfortable. The deck was great in the evening because the sun had moved behind the house and had a wonderful breeze. We enjoyed eating there and enjoyed the view. We would definitely stay here again. ##### Jeannine Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brandy Mar 24, 2023 ##### Brandy Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hyatt Place Austin Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Austin-Downtown.h5437747.Hotel-Information) > > [Moody Gardens Hotel, Spa and Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Galveston-Hotels-Moody-Gardens-Hotel.h157238.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Austin.h8778760.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Hilton-Austin.h976145.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Fairmont-Austin.h18156638.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott Marquis Houston](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Marriott-Marquis-Houston.h14986044.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt San Antonio River Walk](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Antonio-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-San-Antonio-River-Walk.h1848212.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Dallas](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Dallas.h24753.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Galveston Beach by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Galveston-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-And-Suites-Galveston-Beach.h39353237.Hotel-Information) > > [Austin Marriott Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Austin-Marriott-Downtown.h45866780.Hotel-Information) > > [ Hilton Anatole](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Hilton-Anatole.h22945.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Dallas](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Fairmont-Dallas.h18280.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Galvez Resort, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Galveston-Hotels-Hotel-Galvez-Spa.h8509.Hotel-Information) > > [The LINE Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-The-LINE-Austin.h23193716.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Dallas Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Omni-Dallas-Hotel.h4488581.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Barton Creek Resort & Spa Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Omni-Barton-Creek-Resort-Spa.h687230.Hotel-Information) > > [The Woodlands Resort, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Conroe-Hotels-The-Woodlands-Resort.h25794.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Galveston Island Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Galveston-Hotels-Hilton-Galveston-Island-Resort.h4553.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Van Zandt](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Hotel-Van-Zandt.h10269315.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Houston/Galleria](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-HoustonGalleria.h10620692.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Austin Downtown - University by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Austin-Downtown-University.h12302973.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Austin Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Omni-Austin-Hotel.h8540.Hotel-Information) > > [The Post Oak Hotel at Uptown Houston](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-The-Post-Oak-Hotel-At-Uptown-Houston.h22340244.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Austin.h21746.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Houston Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Houston.h20005.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Americas-Houston](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Hilton-Americas-Houston.h976144.Hotel-Information) > > [The Tremont House, Galveston, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Galveston-Hotels-The-Tremont-House.h9121.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Dallas Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Sheraton-Dallas-Hotel.h43540.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbor House Hotel and Marina at Pier 21](https://www.expedia.ca/Galveston-Hotels-Harbor-House-At-Pier-21.h330270.Hotel-Information)
