Only issue was some burned out light bulbs and wall switches that had no effect.

Last Stay
We have stayed at this house previously, this time upon arrival we noticed right away the up keep has not been maintained. The house is settling, the stairs outside coming up to second floor swaying and warped, siding in the back fallen off, inside the house the carpet stained looked dirty, the kitchen table up stairs was dirty actually had food on it, the showers up stairs had hair and “black” stuff on the floor. We had to clean the restrooms before we could use them! Massive water roaches throughout the house! We paid a lot of money to stay here, the owner did not even offer to refund anything! Oh wait the upstairs AC went out 8-9pm at night it was 83 degrees and we had our grandkids with us! The owner did get this fixed! Needless to say we will not be using this house again.

July Rental
Place is well taken care of with nice accommodations however, the hot water was only warm and the boat lift is undersized since our 23 foot boat was about 15 inches or so too wide to fit. Slings are a better option for size consideration. Enjoyed our stay, the neighborhood is quiet

First Time to Port Isabel/SPI
Stayed Feb 10-14 Had a wonderful relaxing long weekend. Even got to see dolphins right off deck. Home is nicely kept and clean. Well stocked appliances, utensils, and even ice makers. Filtered water a plus. Used the soaking tub and since no tub at home left some lavender epsom salts for someone else to enjoy 😁 Recommend baby gate for top of stairs with pets or kids. My dog wanted to police up and down so gate would be handy but hey she was doing her job! Only things that would’ve made this exceptional would be having gas grill available and use of elevator because those stairs are steep carrying all your stuff up. Understand not having it available but could’ve been a great option We would definitely consider returning

Double FUN!
This property is more than what we expected. We might have missed it in the listing but we were surprised that it has an elevator. It made easier for us to bring things up and down. My most favorite part is the boat pier in the back of the property. I enjoyed every minute of fishing in there. There was no boring moment even just staying in the property. I will definitely recommend this property to my friends.

Very well equipped!
This house was very well stocked with all the things you need- pans, dishes, soap, beach towels, paper products etc. Beds were very comfortable. House was super clean and super close to bridge to cross to island. Dock was nice to fish from and of course, boat slip was an added benefit. Takes about 5-8 min to get out into open water. We saw dolphins on a couple outings!!!! One thing about house, there really are 3 bedrooms and one living space downstairs with bunk beds. If you have kids that will sleep there it may not be a big deal because there is not much privacy. Owner was very easy to communicate with and very responsive. Overall, this is a great house to rent and we’ll definitely be back!!
