Pleasant stay

Simple, no-frills accommodations which is just what I needed. Check in and out was smooth, room clean. Only recommendation is owner needs to flip twin mattress as wall side is significantly higher than side people get from in and sit on

Okay once we figured out which building the condo was in. Clean. Very comfortable beds. Loved the private beach. Directions were vague, but we stubbled onto it and enjoyed the water and gas tabletop. The staff was always extremely helpful everywhere. Update the trim (especially in bathroom). Clean the balcony - sweep and vacuum.

Perfect For a Stay in Bellaire

The room was a in a good location for where we needed to be. When we arrived the TV and a whole wall of outlets wasn't working. The owners immediately responded when we reached out and the problem was promptly fixed. The only thing is that we wish would have known the pool was out of commission,because we had planned on using it. Other then that it was a good location and good stay.

Misinformation on listing

We look for ski and ski out for a short mother-daughter weekend skiing. When we arrived it was a 10 minute drive to the ski hill Even though it was listed as a ski in ski out. It hasn't been a ski in ski out since 2020. Spoke with the owner who gave me a small discount but very disappointing. It cost me that much to go back-and-forth multiple times in a day.

Thank you Julianne for taking the time to review our property. Unfortunately the slopes behind condo were planned to open this January but it has not happened. We are very sorry that the free shuttle that connects the unit with the other slopes did not work for you. Our description is updated to clearly state the usage of the shuttle for getting to slopes.

Didn’t expect a whole lot but it didn’t even live up to that

Probably the most uncomfortable bed we have ever tried to sleep in. I say that because my wife didn’t sleep at all on Saturday night. Partly because of the bed and partly because of the noise coming from Lakeview hotel. It also wouldn’t take much to supply some spoons to stir your coffee with or a couple of wine glasses. We asked at the shanty bar if they could give us a couple of plastic wine glasses. Just a few little thoughtful touches would make it a nice little place to stay overall it worked out but could definitely be improved.

Thank you for your review, we appreciate all the feedback and we look constantly to improve. One of the selling points for this unit is that it is right next to the hotel for a fraction of the price. The unit has a tick queen size mattress, we are sorry it was not a fit for you. We provide in the unit ceramic mugs to be used for coffee and other beverages as we are thriving for reusability.
