We had such a great time staying here. We had been traveling throughout Texas and wanted a quiet relaxing place for our last stop. That is exactly what we found. Our condo was comfortably furnished and had easy access to the beach as well as Matagorda. If you are looking for a lovely place to rest close to the gulf I highly recommend staying here!
Nice quiet property. Easy access to the beach.
Property location and amenities were very conducive to a relaxing beach vacation. Town with stores and restaurants was easy drive.
We were here for fishing. Did not spend much time in the condo, more time on the water. Condo was nice and served it purpose, a place to shower and sleep. There are two beds and a bathroom upstairs. The spiral staircase is not easy for larger people, especially with luggage. Keep that in mind. The AC was cold, the beds were comfortable. The pool was a nice add and provided a refreshing dip after a long day fishing in the sun. The house is located near the beach, not far from the jetties where there is good fishing. We chartered a boat for bay fishing the first day, and chartered a boat for fishing 60 miles out on the second day. Matagorda is a great place to visit, fish, and enjoy time away. This condo was a great place to stay.
Great place to stay.
The property is really nice and was spotless when we showed up. The pool is fun and clean, beach access is maybe 5 minutes away. Had a blast with the fam.
Quiet neighborhood with great views. The pool was relaxing for the whole family. Communication with the property manager was great as well. Overall, highly recommend.
Condo was comfortable for me and my girls. View was good and able to walk to the beach. Quiet beach and town. Very relaxing stay. If you like to fish, lots of options to drop a line in the water here.
Great place to stay with a great view
Sound of the ocean and nearness of pool was very relaxing
Very nice
We stayed here to celebrate my husband’s 44th birthday, and everything was perfect. The beach is a very short walk, and we loved our time at the pool. Communication with the owners, check-in, and check-out was super easy too! We’ll definitely be back.
Perfect place close to the beach for a weekend getaway. Place was clean and comfortable. The owner was great to work with and excellent communication. Will stay again!
Loved the home kids enjoyed the pool and close beach access
What a fantastic property a stones throw from the Gulf! I was extremely happy with everything about the stay and will be back about the same time next year!!!
Very relaxing and enjoyable! Comfortable and fun. The kids loved the upstairs! Great location within the complex! Enjoyed the access to the beach over the dunes! Very nice!
The place was everything it say it would be! Absolutely WONDERFUL! Comfortable beds! I loved having coffee on the porch listening the waves on the beach and just looking at the pond! Host was VERY HELPFUL!
We enjoyed our stay at this property very much! The wi-fi (once I learned how to connect) was very fast and reliable. I was about to Zoom, stream video lectures, etc. with no issues even with high winds outside. The condo is nicely decorated with a fun beach them. Overall the property was clean (the bed linens smelled terrific!), but the couch had some stains on it. The Saltillo tiles in the breakfast room area are cracked and wiggle when you walk on them. The downstairs tub fixtures are rusting out. We appreciated that the Keurig had k-cups available for our use and that there was sugar available for our coffee/tea. We didn't do any cooking while we were there, but the kitchen is small and there are limited pots and pans for cooking. Overall, the condo was perfect for us and we really enjoyed our time there.
This property was awesome. It turned out to be the best place to spend my birthday in. The stars are amazing at night and during the day you can go to the beach
Amazing location. Love the community here
Our stay was absolutely amazing!!!! The house was clean and the kitchen was fully stocked with all the accessories you may need to cook with. Our only issue we had was all the mosquitoes. They were so bad we were only able to stay outside for extremely short periods of time and had to use a ton of repellent. But the property was truly amazing and we had a fantastic time!!!!
Good available amenities especially the ice machine!! We didn't use the pool, but it was nice knowing it was available. We drove to the beach since we had a lot of stuff, but the beach can be accessed by a short walk over the dunes. WEAR BOOTS for the walk over the dunes. There are snakes in the grass!
Good place to stay.. I will be coming back again soon
Small but nice, good for a small size family. Close to the beach. Recommend!
It was a nice little stay
Nice place to stay.
Cute condo, well furnished, and well stocked with any utensils you needed. Property manager and owner are extremely prompt and responsive - especially when your friend enters the wifi password in backwards!! We had zero issues or complaints with this stay. You could walk to the beach if you wanted to but in this Texas heat, trust me, take the car!!
We had a great time on the beach and fishing. The unit was nice, clean and cozy. We didn't swim in the pool but took advantage of the ice machine every day. We would rent again again.
The house was amazing. Very clean and everything was just as expected from the description and pictures. Definitely recommend for anyone wanting to stay in Matagorda near the beach!
Condo has everything you need. It was a short walk to the beach.
We really love the cleanliness and how responsive management was.
