Great House For A Group

4 bedrooms with beds galore for everyone. A great unit for a big family gathering. Strong A/C. Comfy beds with all the right amenities. Private bathrooms for every bedroom. The private plunge pool was a big winner for us!

Overall the stay was nice lots of space for a big family, quiet area! But the pool was NOT heated as stated on property. Location of house is not by the beach side it’s on the bay side, which I was also confused about because it says “walk to beach” and yes you can walk but it’s a long walk across the main road, padre blvd.

Beautiful spacious home! My one concern was that we were not told the pool had just been service , apparently chemicals had just be added and my grandson went in the pool and came out screening that his body was burning and itching. Pool chemicals are harsh and should have been told chemicals were added.
