    The house was perfect we had 7 girls and it was more than enough room for us. It was a short drive to the beach, stores, restaurants, whatever you needed. The kitchen was probably where we hung out the most, has absolutely everything you could need and the big commercial ice maker was a huge plus for us and our coolers. Would definitely stay here again!! Seamless check in/out process!

    Overall good. Nicely appointed. Beautiful home. Outdoors amenities were nice but a bit tired. Couldn’t find extra sheets for sofa bed then realized it was broken had to sleep on well worn couch. Stove and exhaust created havoc. Commercial paper goods cheapened the stay. Parking for two vehicles and no street parking made it difficult. Perfect for one family with one car! Only one king two other bedrooms were fulls. Kinda tight. SP Beach was dangerously crowded.

    Beautiful house and great location! Only issue was our minivan scraping exiting and entering the driveway due to the slope. Had to load our luggage on the street in order to not scrape worse, which is problematic as the street is definitely not for parking. May be less of a problem for SUVs and Trucks sitting higher off the ground.

    We stayed for a couple days and the House was clean, beautiful, and had lots of extra perks. There were lots of kitchen utensils and grilling outside was so fun! Access to the house by boat was cool since a friend of ours lives in Port Isabel and he came by on the boat. Overall would 100% stay here next time I'm in town.

    This home is beautifully decorated with high-end finishes and thoughtful details. The kitchen was perfect for cooking and playing games, and we especially loved the ice machine. The outdoor space looked great, though we couldn’t use it due to bad weather. Overall, a fantastic stay—we’d definitely return!

    We had a fantastic time! The home is beautifully decorated, all of the amenities were stocked, and towels and sheets were soft. Plenty of cookware, utensils, pots/pans. The ice machine was an added bonus.

    Ice maker was a huge plus. Boat slip and dock were fantastic. Home was clean and very well decorated. Parking is nonexistent. Nearest place to park if you have more than one vehicle and or a boat trailer is the public ramp and it’s about $40 per day. I’ll return though; the place was wonderful.

    We stayed at the Pompano House for 2 nights, and we had the absolute BEST time! The house accommodated for all of our needs. We really enjoyed the fishing pier with access to the kayaks and paddle boards, as well as all of the fishing equipment. We also enjoyed making fajitas on the grill! The landscaping was beautiful, as well as the interior of the house. The house was very clean, the ice machine was great, and the location is close to HEB and the bridge to SPI. The house has an awesome AC unit for the hot summer months, and the beds were very comfortable to sleep in. The owner was very responsive! We were so impressed with everything and look forward to staying here again in the future!
