Only reason not a 5 star review. The living room furniture was very uncomfortable and the TV was in the bedroom but it was well maintained. They have other properties that they supplied with drinking water but not at this location. The picture of the screen in room which was very nice but the comfortable chairs at showing was not there replaced by again an uncomfortable furniture unit.
House was great. Clean and looked the same as the pics. Close to the beach. I loved the screened in porch. We spent most of our time there. Communication was great! I had a question and called after hours. I was expecting to leave a message but was pleasantly surprised when she answered. There were six of us. We knew the house was small and we expected it to be tight, but with the layout of the house and the outdoor space we were not on top of each other. We had a great time! Thank you!
The property was in a quiet neighborhood overlooking the ocean. We staatbon the back patio deck every night listening to the waves and watching the sun go down. The house was well prepared for us to make our own meals and to enjoy our time together.
Great little property. Nice view. I was able to walk the trail to the beach in the back. When we woke up in the morning, first day, there was a herd of deer in the backyard. Didnât know deer like the beach to!
Great house very comfortable all the comfort of home, everything provide was very good, neat and clean. We had to dri ve to the beach each day, due to the fact it is technically on the beach, but have to walk thru alot dunes, to get to the beach. Highly recommend this accommodation.
qalk yhru alot of dunes.walk thru thur
Our stay was very nice . We loved the screen porch. Plenty of room. Well decorated and the kitchen had every thing one would need. Reminded us of when we were young and the family beach trips. One of the best places we have ever rented.
This spot was exactly what we needed. The house was nothing fancy but perfect for us. Comfortable home and bed. Great and peaceful view. Short drive to the beach and quiet street.
The beach house was very comfortable and well stocked with all the kitchen appliances, pots and pans, etc. Downstairs had a nice little grill and chairs. We enjoyed that it had a screened in porch as well as non screened.
Very well kept. Perfect for a family and kids. Only downfall is we had two couples and the only bathroom was accessible only thru the bedroom. So a privacy issue. The shower was way too small for grownups. Other than that, a perfect little beach house.
Location, accommodations and check-in were as expected. Chicken process was smooth
The property is completely sufficient but we wouldn't stay here again, even if it was free unless the owners and managers had commenced a rigorous mosquito fogging reduction campaign.
Friends own a house down the street and treat it for mosquitoes with incredible results.
Not mentioned in the listing is the biblical amount of mosquitoes that are in the yard of this house. We were each bit 10 times just checking in. In the amount of time that it took us to open our tailgate and take our luggage out of the car, 30 mosquitoes were in our car which we then spent the next 20 minutes killing before we could depart. I cannot overstate how big of a impact this had on our weekend. Every trip to and from the car was a sprint followed by us climbing around inside of our car, swatting mosquitoes.
This property could be exponentially better but would strongly recommend you not stay here until the mosquitoes are handled.
I loved the band of green space through the dunes between the house and the beach. The deer each morning eating blackberries along with other birds and wildflowers were very relaxing. The pictures look as if you could walk to the beach, however, you can not. It isnât far to the beach, it just needs to be noted in the advertisement that the mowed strip is to the top of the first row of dunes and you cannot walk through the green space field with cattails to get to the beach. We had a great visit!
Booked for three nights; stayed for one. The beach was impossible to get toâŠ. thereâs no path to the beach. You have to walk across cactus, fire ants and swamp. Calling this beach front property is misleading. The beach was covered in jellyfish and garbage. Bad weather is no oneâs fault but the house swayed in the wind. Not the vacation we were hoping for. Turned around for home ASAP.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Villa Verde. The interior was comfortable and accommodating. The porches provided panoramic views of sunrises, sunsets and the night sky. A fun time at the beach was just a short trek across the dunes.
This was the right place for my wife and myself. Not too small-not too big. Several things needed fixing but did not dampen our stay. I talked to property management and they assured me that repairs would be done-so with that being promised-the place should be perfect.
Overall the stay was fine and we had a relaxing vacation, but there are some reasons this house was available for a last-minute booking. It took us a little by surprise that the mowed path up the dunes didnât actually go to the beach, and that we had to walk to the end of the street and through the nature park beach access. Something about the pictures we saw made it look like direct beach access from the house. Our stay was after the Fourth of July and the bay side of the beach was a huge mess with trash pile everywhere and buried in the sand. My dog walked through broken glass. There were also a few things that would have made the experience better. Neighbors who didnât let their un-neutered dogs roam off-leash would have been nice. The coffee maker overflows and needs instructions taped to it. It doesnât work like a normal keurig. The shower is made of very thin plastic that is taped together with waterproof tape at the corners. If I had slipped Iâd have taken out the shower wall. The bed was comfortable, the couch was comfortable, there is a tv in the bedroom with a password-locked roku, the Wi-Fi connection was good. Overall, it was comfortable, but I felt it was overpriced.
We took a quick trip to Matagorda. The property manager was great and provided us with some options on local food locations and helpful reminders. We'd stay there, again.
