Elegant island home with private pool & spa, AC - 1 block to beach

Good— need breakdown of charges to split bill with friends-

Great location. Pool and hot tub were so refreshing after a day at the beach

The location was outstanding. Probably the best on the island. The home needs better beds and bedding.

Had a great experience

It was a beautiful house and very clean.

Loved the pool and the size of the house.

Overall the stay was good. The house was beautiful, plenty of room. Kids enjoyed the pool a lot. Although We did have to go get a refill on the propane tank ourselves which was supposed to already have been ready for us. And we had to get trash bags because there were none to be found. Another downer was finding proscriptions from previous stays there in kitchen. Overall a good stay would go back.

The photos are deceiving. They are definitely photo shopped to make the pool larger and rooms. The hot tub buttons were peeling off, so we didn't know what the buttons controlled. The back side of the house around the roof looks like it has black mold, and the gutter or siding is falling off. We received a text letting us know If earlier check-in is available, we will text you separately. The day of check-in I made contact a little over one hour earlier than check-in time to ask about checking in early since I never received anything. They told me early check-in would not be possible because this property doesn't offer it. If it isn't offered, why was it even mentioned? The table was noticeably dirty upon arriving with circles from cups being sat on it which made me question everything else in the house. Take extra trash bags with you as we weren't supplied enough for our stay and had to purchase some. We went during off season so had we booked this during summer when the rates are 3x or 4x what we paid I would be extremely upset.

Location is AMAZING, Can Walk to numerous stores and restaurants. Does Have a little view of ocean from front balcony which was Nice! The discription of property Rms NOT True…master has King and a small futon you could fit a smaller child on, then there are 2 rms with twin/queen bunk beds, and a TINY 4th rm with no window that has a full/twin bunk bed.All beds were the metal beds you get like for a kids bdrm including the bed frame in master. If you’re 2 larger individuals I’d really want to know the weight rating, not very sturdy. The discription really should be changed to reflect the true sleeping arrangements as if you came with 3 couples and thought you were putting all the kiddos in the rm with all the beds you will be disappointed:-( I could go on about the cleanliness but there is too much to put I wish I could just post pictures:-( The outdoor spaces were GROSS!! I will say they did send someone promptly to clean! The hot tub didn’t work and that was so disappointing as in previous reviews other guests also stated did not work and response was it was fixed it wasn’t:-( No hot tub just a cold tub and then the pool also was not cleaned food in it bottom gross:-( They did send someone to clean and try and fix hot tub but was not fixed during our week stay but pool was cleaned! This could be a Beautiful home but the upkeep needs some help!!! You can tell it’s not cleaned well between guests! baseboards of a home cleaned regularly should not have caked on dirt:-(

We went to Padre to celebrate 3 of our group’s 60th birthday. The house was open when we got there. The back door would only open occasionally. The hot tub never got hot (the main reason we rented this place was the hot tub). I sent messages to Vacasa. Our first night there, the text (the only way to reach them) reply said they would look into the problem. After I sent 4 messages, we gave up. Sent messages again the 2nd day. This time they said they would send someone to look at the hot tub and back door. No one ever arrived. The bbq grill in the back yard looked like it should have been tossed. Nowhere near what the one in the listing picture showed. We wanted to spray down the patio because there were a ton of ants, but neither of the two hoses worked. There were ants in the kitchen, all over the counters. We were extremely disappointed with the lack of attention paid to this property. The property management is definitely not doing their job. We will not be recommending this property or property management to anyone.

This home was large and fit our party fine, but definitely lacking extras for all the essentials. No extra garbage bags or soap or towels or blankets. The pool and hot tub weren’t in top working condition either so that was really disappointing as that’s why we booked. However the home is very large and fit everyone in our party, when we requested things from the host they did send a house cleaner with some extra things, and someone to clean the pool, but the issue wasn’t resolved. Paid a lot for the issues to happen.

Perfect location clean big and roomy loved it

Home is walking distance from the beach. Home has a great pool that was suitable for a party of 11. Home had 4 rooms to accommodate living quarters. Home had a suitable kitchen and dining area for meals and lounging areas both inside and out. No complaints. I wouldn't mind rebooking the place for my next visit.

We had a party of 9 stay at the beautiful Blue Dolphin. Plenty of room and the house was clean upon arrival. The pool and hot tub were sparkling clean and we used it every day. Literally a 5 minute walk to the beach. Only criticism is there are hardly any “extras” in the house. No extra trash bags, 1 extra roll of toilet paper, no coffee or coffee filters, things like that. So be prepared to make a stop at the grocery store if you plan to cook or have several people staying. Fortunately, there is a grocery store right down the street.

Spacious home, very clean, the only thing is at night the pool is not filtering not sure if it is timed.
