**** Please note, Texas weather brings pesky insects, and while we strive to ensure your stay is as pleasurable as possible, we are not able to control the elements that attract insects to the outdoor/indoor areas. All properties do utilize pest control maintenance regularly, BUT this does not guarantee pests or bugs will not be visible.
** The host does not always guarantee stable wifi services during your stay. This may also affect television streaming services.

Good location but needed a few things

It felt like they were not quite ready for renters - there were issues we communicated with the main office and they passed them along to local team, the good thing is they did respond and fixed things like leaking toilet and wobbly ceiling fan, and need for more hangers and toilet paper.The outside areas could be hosed down and chairs cleaned before someone comes. There were white specs on the carpeting upstairs. The kitchen was well stocked. The location is perfect, close to beach and grocery store and many restaurants. We did not need to rent a car.

Nice

House was very nice and we loved having a private pool. House was clean but the bunk bed was very unsafe. The top bunk was only held up by one board in the middle. The pool was also pretty murky after a few days. I don’t think the filter worked at all. Contacted the host but nothing ever happened.

Family getaway

It was a beautiful weekend but the only downfall for us especially having 3 grandchildren ranging from age 5-10 who were most excited about grandma and grandpa getting a beach house, was the pool not in service until the following day. The plan was to get as much use of the swimming pool before we headed home. Other than that, it is a beautiful property.

Family spring break

This duplex was great! Upon arrival the place was SPOTLESS and gleaming! Keyless entry was simple and easy to use. Private pool was lovely. Only thing I’d tell others is if you’re staying longer than a couple days you need to bring extra detergents/trash bags and paper products. Also, it is a duplex. We were a bit surprised because that isn’t clear in the listing. Would definitely use this location again!

Perfect location

This property is great for the price. Can’t beat the location. Truly within walking distance to multiple things! More space than the pictures show! Backyard pool area is a little tight and it doesn’t get any sun if you stay in colder months. The washer is a little touchy, so beware if you have a large party, it can only take a few items at a time. Vacasa was super quick to respond when we had an issue after checking in and overall our stay was amazing!

Property was very nice, well kept, and as described. The living room feels bigger if you move the smaller couch against the wall. Toilet paper and napkins were of poor quality so you might want to bring your own. All in all we had a very enjoyable stay.

Enjoyed our stay

The property had minor issues like no padlock to the side gate, the faucet in the downstairs bathroom moved all around the outside trash can stunk very bad, and the water pressure in the kitchen sink was low. The house was clean, the ac worked very well, there were plenty of towels, blankets, and pillows, they did provide trash bags, dishwasher detergent and laundry detergent. The management was unreachable for a whole month. We did enjoy our stay and the beach was free and a block away!

Excellent place to stay for families while on SPI

We really enjoyed our stay here during spring break 2020. The location is a short 3 minute walk to the beach but was quiet enough to relax. You're also only 1' walk away from either a grocery store or a breakfast cafe that has awesome food (Grapevine Cafe). The home had everything we needed and made for a relaxing place for our family to get away from it all during our first trip to SPI.
