This is an $110 fee that will be paid directly to the Long Island Village HOA on arrival and is not included in your Vacasa fees. If the LIV office is closed, you will need to drive up to the gate. On the keypad, there are instructions for contacting security on call; they will come to the gate. You will be registered and security will allow you through the gate for the night.

**** 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 guarantee stable wifi services at all times during your stay. This may also affect streaming services for televisions.

Loved the location. My son and husband fished off the back porch every morning and evening. We even saw dolphins. One of the rooms is a little dated and had a noisy mattress which was slightly annoying but the other room was extremely comfortable. Will definitely book again when we come to town.

The spot was perfect and so was the house! The only thing is with little kids, you might want to install gates going towards the pier, we almost had a couple of accidents. Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay!

Positives:
Location was great. Was able to see dolphins and a lot of seabirds. Quiet and peaceful. Floor plan of home was excellent.
Negatives:
Older and more faded than expected. Appears lamination on floors is curling. Fabrics more faded than expected. Wheels on dining chairs don't roll. Desk Chair covering was shedding and leaving black vinyl material all over the floor.

Mini vacation
This place was great! The family really enjoyed it. Nice view too! Perfect for a mini get away.
Our stay was heavenly. It was right off the channel. The community is quiet and people are friendly. The staff is very nice and the vacasa staff was awesome.
It’s not fancy but it was at the right location, clean and comfortable. If you’re staying here you might need more towels and better pillows. The only other thing is if you’re a light sleeper there’s a motor some sort that turns on at 6 am. It didn’t bother me but it did wake up my wife. Other than that we had a great stay!

The location was beautiful but the home
Needs an update on furniture was not clean .
My husband, infant daughter, and I decided to stay in Port Isabel for a few days and are so happy we found this house! Super clean, Fantastic patio, amazing views! Loved everything and will definitely come back!!!
It was awesome! The place was peaceful , clean and bright. The community is very friendly . I am a beginner Angler. Sitting on the deck and fishing anytime I wanted too was a most relaxing time. I saw some dolphins, sea turtles and pelicans. These are only a few of the natural habitants of Port Isabel. I had a great night sleep every night. I am definitely going back there.

beautiful view of main channel
nice views of the main channel from both inside and out. you see dolphins in the main channel switch ming by and occasionally feeding for 10-15 minutes at a time. Quiet neighborhood. Covered patio was great with shade in the afternoon. Pack mosquito repellent.
Great place to stay beds could be more comfortable and maybe repair some places in the floor that are a little soft but we had a great time enjoyed the view
Cute little home right on the water. Has a nice sized dock. We brought our kayaks and saw dolphins close by near sunset time. Comfortable bed. I would definitely stay again and love booking through Vacasa

Loved it
Nice and comfortable place. Would stay there again.
Minor things of note: the kitchen counters and refrigerator are on a slant. Needs structural work. But, everything worked and wasn't a problem. More minor: trash bags too small for trash can so they were useless.
