Mar 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Check-in #### Great location It was alright. We had problems getting in with the lock box. There was an actual problem with it. Nobody came that night they said they were going to send someone but nobody came. My husband actually found an unlocked window and crawled through. They came Monday morning. Also we had nothing but sheets in the master bedroom. No cover or blankets. I got them Monday. So all that is hit or miss and more of the property people issues. But one thing the owner could do to greatly improve the place is to get new mattresses. They aren’t that expensive any more and can do a lot for sleep quality. Over all the location is great for the beach and pool. ##### Sandra B. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Linda J.

I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was what we wanted, not too fancy but definitely comfortable! The kitchen was well stocked, the tv worked and the beds were comfortable. proximity to the beach was good and we loved having a golf cart! That was fun. We toured port A and I have to say. WAY TO GO! The town looked new and fresh and everybody was very friendly. ##### betty d. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Great Wolf Lodge Grapevine](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Great-Wolf-Lodge-Grapevine.h1906487.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton DFW Lakes Executive Conference Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Hilton-DFW-Lakes-Executive-Conference-Center.h6039.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Frisco Hotel at The Star](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Omni-Frisco-Hotel.h18919478.Hotel-Information) > > [Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Gaylord-Texan-Resort-Convention-Center.h985065.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Dallas - Richardson](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Dallas-Richardson.h18234.Hotel-Information) > > [The Woodlands Waterway Marriott Hotel & Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Conroe-Hotels-The-Woodlands-Waterway-Marriott-Hotel-Convention-Center.h907442.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin At The Woodlands](https://www.expedia.ca/Conroe-Hotels-The-Westin-At-The-Woodlands.h13173066.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Dallas Fort Worth Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-The-Westin-Dallas-Fort-Worth-Airport.h1653.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Walt Disney World® Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Walt-Disney-World-Resort-Hotels.0-l6034120-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Downtown Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Downtown-Toronto-Toronto-Hotels.0-n6057934-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Divya Sutra Plaza and Conference Centre Calgary Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Calgary-Hotels-Riviera-Plaza-And-Conference-Centre-Calgary-Airport.h428621.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with an Indoor Pool in The Blue Mountains](https://www.expedia.ca/The-Blue-Mountains-Hotels-Hotels-With-Indoor-Pool.0-0-d6129678-tHotelswithIndoorPool.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Esmé Miami Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Miami-Hotels-Esme-Miami-Beach.h58072094.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency DFW International Airport - Adjacent to Terminal C](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-DFW.h22022.Hotel-Information) > > [AT&T Hotel & Conference Center at the University of Texas](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-ATT-Hotel-Conference-Center-At-The-University-Of-Texas.h2169414.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt DFW - Connected to the airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-DFW.h1209294.Hotel-Information) > > [Harrison Hot Springs Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Chilliwack-Hotels-Harrison-Hot-Springs-Resort-And-Spa.h553971.Hotel-Information) > > [Temptation Cancun Resort All Inclusive - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun-Hotels-Temptation-Cancun-Resort-All-Inclusive-Adults-Only.h17310768.Hotel-Information) > > [Houston Airport Marriott at George Bush Intercontinental](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Houston-Airport-Marriott-At-George-Bush-Intercontinental.h22967.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Antonio-Hotels-JW-Marriott-San-Antonio-Hill-Country-Resort-Spa.h2841775.Hotel-Information) > > [Sandman Signature Dartmouth Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Dartmouth-Hotels-Sandman-Signature-Dartmouth-Hotel.h92611337.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Romantic Zone](https://www.expedia.ca/Romantic-Zone-Puerto-Vallarta-Hotels.0-n6051315-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Home2 Suites by Hilton Lewisville Dallas](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Home2-Suites-By-Hilton-Lewisville-Dallas.h45970429.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [IndiGo](https://www.expedia.ca/IndiGo-Flights.c6E.Travel-Guide-Airlines) ### Activities > [Things to do in Cambridge](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Cambridge.d10479.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Montreal Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal.d178288.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Hawaii Island Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Hawaii-Island.d180074.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Mexico Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Mexico.d117.Destination-Travel-Guides)
