Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This condo was in the perfect location with close parking and first floor. The condo including the linens were extremely clean. Property management was present and picking up litter that may have blown in. I recommend bringing tar wipes/solution. There were a couple wipes but we definitely needed more because tarballs were all over the beach. HEB is close as well as other things to do besides the beach.

Great location for beach getaway

Had a family vacation for the weekend at the beach. Easy access and parking for condo. All information for check in and check out was listed on our account and email. Perfect walking distance for the beach and a quick drive if you want to bring beach items to stay for the day. Condo was a great location between the beach and all the local shops and restaurants around town. It was also very clean and had everything you needed for cooking and laundry. Highly recommend it!

Great listing

The property is very close to Whitecap Beach, great area, serene and everyone observed quiet time as indicated. The unit was very clean, the check in/out process was seamless and the unit was equipped with all of the things we needed to use. They no longer make up the top bunk's sheets so you have to put it yourself - not a dealbreaker whatsoever, just setting that expectation. The unit has thin walls so you can hear people flushing the toilet from the unit above us. It was overall a pleasant experience and I will recommend and stay again.
