Very nice but had issues

This property is in a great location. Beautiful pool that’s shaded in the afternoons and beach just a short way down the boardwalk. Unit was super clean and large with most everything we needed. Kids and adults alike had a fun time. But when we checked in Friday there was a roofing crew working outside our patio and they had blocked some of the pool area for safety which was understandable. Over the weekend we fished at least 4 screws out of the pool when my grandson stepped on them puncturing both his big toes. Painful and not acceptable. We did not know how to contact the onsite representative and the gate code for the pool and boardwalk was not posted in our unit. We had to get it from other guests. The patio doors were locked with no instructions and when I called the Port A Escapes #, the sent a very nice maintenance man who showed us the counterintuitive method. Also suggest more bath towels be provided. There were 2 per bathroom for a 3 night stay.

Perfect Labor Day Weekend

Loved the property and the access to the beach. The condo was so clean and well stocked. The primary sweet was HUGE! Not all of our proposed guests were able to come, but we used one other bedroom and heard no complaints. The only downside was that check out was at 11 on Monday and by 10:30 our door code no longer worked. Luckily my husband was still inside so we could finish packing the car. Would 100% stay here again.

Fantastic Stay

Our family of 5 had a very enjoyable stay. The location was perfect with very short walk over the dunes to the beach. We enjoyed the pool with tables and shade when we had too much sun. Very friendly neighbors and staff. Very, very quiet. We never heard others while in the unit. . The property was spotless. Kitchen was well stocked with all the essential utensils. We were provided with more than enough paper towels, dish soap, and toilet paper for our 4 night stay. Coffee maker is a traditional 12 cup. Beds are all very comfy. The fold out couch is a standard, thin mattress fold out, so put the littles on that one. The unit has been updated and is very nice. Watch the glass doors - it appeared that someone allowed them to slam and the glass was broken. We are grateful for our stay and would absolutely stay again.

Family Beach Trip

We love staying at the Grand Caribbean when we visit Port A, and we really enjoyed staying in this condo. The condo was extremely clean and was well equipped. It had the perfect layout and configurations to accommodate our family comfortability. The property was very well kept, the pool was clean as well as the boardwalk. Great place to stay!!! The only downside was the balcony door was extremely hard to open and lock, but that didn't bother us too much. I can't wait for another trip, and I will be booking this condo in the future.

Remodeling needs to be finished.

The unit is nice and clean. The location is in a really good area in Port A. However the unit could use some work. There were some pretty large cracks in the glass doors on the pool side of the unit. There are also old school vertical blinds on the back side of the unit that were missing panels. Normally I don’t mention sheets, but these need to be upgraded throughout. The owners have made some nice upgrades (new flooring), but there is still a lot of work that needs to be done for the prices being charged for this unit.

Good place but needs some TLC

This property has a good layout and accommodated my family and friends as far as space. We did have a few issues in which the owners need to correct. The A/C unit was not working when we arrived and had to be fixed which took a full day, the outside balcony light did not work and was not fixed after I requested to get it fixed, the front door was not secure when we got to the condo but it was fixed upon my request ( did not take em but about an 2 hours to fix the door), the sink in the front bathroom did not drain well and the sleeper sofa was broken but we were able to get it to function enough for one of the kids to sleep on. Over all we had a good stay but this unit does need some TLC and a few things looked into and corrected.

Relaxing beach trip

In general, a great condo at a great location that we would definitely rebook in the future. There were several minor issues that I would check on prior to another visit, but positives are: very comfortable beds, well-equipped kitchen, handy large pantry, conveniently close to pool, QUIET, even though it is a condo and close to pool, no mosquitos due to constant breeze, well-maintained boardwalk (lit at night). Outdoor shower and hose on boardwalk, broad clean uncrowded (*usually) beach, AC, TV, wifi work great, THREE bathrooms, water pressure great, except for one shower. Code access made check-in easy! There were a few boogie boards available for use, which was much appreciated. Here were the negatives: There is NO SIGN at all for Grand Caribbean on the road. None. GPS does work to find the turn off. Look for the yellow building. Sliding door from master BR to patio does not open. Sliding door from FR opens and closes, but cannot lock it. FRAMED sign on kitchen’s bar near sink says to please only use Dawn in sink (looks like copper sink), but there is a new bottle of Palmolive soap provided. Ice maker does not work; found ice cube trays in cabinet day 4 & left them inside freezer. No fly swatter. Had two pesky flies on arrival. Sink in BR on right as enter condo drains very slowly. Management volunteered to send someone while we were there. I opted not to have handyman, and assume it will be fixed day we move out. There was a broken pane of glass low on FR patio door (outer pane of double pane glass);it appeared stable. Informed management. Ceiling fan on BR to left as you enter had a 3-light fixture below fan that rocked like crazy and the pull chain clinked against the glass surround of a bulb. It was annoying enough that we removed chain while we were there and replaced the morning we left. (If fan is on low speed, there is no rocking or clinking) Water pressure in showers fine except that shower head in BR on right as you enter the unit was a large rain shower head which gave a nice gentle rain shower effect, but would be completely inadequate to rinse shampoo out of hair. M-Fri am, very few people on beach. Weekend (first week Aug) tons of people on beach. Cars and trucks parked to vision's limit. As cars drive on public beaches in TX, I suspect beach will be crowded every weekend all over island, but distance of these condos from town should give it an advantage.

Easy Getaway

The condo was very spacious and we loved that every room had its own bathroom. Kitchen was great for cooking too! Loved the easy private-beach access, and access to the pool. Only recommendation to owner would be to change the table out for something more sturdy. If anyone leaned their elbows on one side of the table, the whole table top would tilt to that side. Other than that, we loved our stay!

Too many calls for repair

Place great. The owner had lovely things ... I.e. pot,, pans, dishes, etc... However, they had way too many personal items - bicycle, high chair, tent, wagon..... The refrigerator wasn’t working when we arrived, and they were never able to fix the ice maker. The disposal was hit or miss. We lost power in 1 room for a while and the cable was less than reliable. I know this list sounds like we were unhappy, but, we really did enjoy our stay, just laying out our true experience.

A few things to note:

Loved the spaced in the condo and the proximity to the beach. Feel like kitchen was missing a few necessities to include: Blender, pitcher, and sufficient trash bags. Also notes asked us to only use Dawn detergent but there was only Palmolive under the sink? Also sink in first bedroom on the right did not drain. Other than these few things we loved our stay. And plan to come back next year!
