The house was wonderful! Very pretty and clean. Only complaint was that it had kind of an odd/trash smell but nothing intolerable. We enjoyed our stay and would for sure book again.
Responsive host who was extremely friendly. Amazing property with a fun pool. Great location. Would recommend this property to everyone. See ya next time !
The Purple Parrot was a great house! Very clean and included towels and linens which was a huge help since we travelled from pretty far away. The bedroom and bathroom situation was perfect for our group of 4 adults and 2 children. The pool was an added bonus and great for cooling off in the evenings after our outings shopping or days spent at the beach. Our host was very quick to respond to messages and that was helpful. Overall, a wonderful stay! We will be back for sure!
We had a great time at the Purple Parrot. It's everything you would expect to get when renting a home for the weekend. Even the group next door was friendly. We might have planned too many things, so going back to a stress free, relaxing place sure did help a lot.
My wife and I loved the house, the location, and the entire town. Check in was very easy and communication was quick and to the point. We are already planning a longer trip for next winter and would love to stay again. Thanks again to our host for having a clean and well furnished house . Thanks Tom & Betty H
Stayed here with a group of 4. There was more than enough room. The owner provided everything we could have needed & more. We contacted the owner for a few questions, she was very responsive. Can not wait to come back with my family!
The property has everything you need. Clean, close to the beach and a pool. The main reason we picked this place was the heated pool so the kids could swim at night and they really enjoyed it. The house has everything you need and the host is quick to respond to requests. We would book this place again.
We stayed for a wedding in Corpus. 6 adults and 2 kids. The house was perfect size for us. The appliances are all very nice and work well. Kitchen is fully stocked. It was really nice having beach toys too. Good location. Host was great!
The house was beautiful just like the pictures and the location was great!! Close to everything in the center of town and just a 5 minute drive to the beach. Heather was wondering in communication with us on any questions we had about the house, she was fast & easy to get ahold of. The pool was clean and they had just about anything you need. Thanks for sharing your house with us, we will be back!!

We are so happy you enjoyed your stay at the Purple Parrot. We would be honored to have you stay with us again!
Amazing spot, had a fabulous time and the property was amazing! Super clean and everything you need with pool, bbq pit and all amenities! Communication was excellent when I had any questions or concerns! Location to beach and bars and restaurants was a short golf cart away! Next time in this will be my choice of stay! Thank you so much!!!
We had an amazing time at the Purple Parrot! The house is clean and spacious! Has everything you need from grilling to towels! Recommend renting a golf cart...it's the best (and totally the most fun) way to get around the island! The pool was awesome in the evening when the beach was too chilly to swim! Brought my spunky 76 year old mother and she had a great time! Highly recommend!
Great experience staying at the Purple Parrot. Beautiful home with cozy beach vibes. Spotlessly clean, provides just enough of what you need for a stay and plenty of beach gear/sand toys etc plus a nice clean pool and area below deck to enjoy the outdoors. Host was immediately on top of a minor issue and provided excellent communication. Loved the little extra touches in this home. We will be back.
We loved this house. The location was great, and the underneath area had tons of space to store all of our wet/sandy gear. This was the first year we’ve had our own pool and we loved it. Our only complaint was that we wished we could have set the thermostat a little lower. It was locked at 72 which was perfectly comfortable in the majority of the house, but the master bedroom (especially with the door closed for privacy at night) was at least 5 degrees hotter than the rest of the house. Otherwise we had a great stay here for a week.
