Great getaway for relaxation and adventure!

This house is in the right spot for being near restaurants, essential businesses, and of course, the beach! Super clean and tidy. I really like how the neighborhood pool is literally in the backyard making it super convenient for access. Also, huge plus for being pet friendly! Comfortable couch and beds. Slept great with no issues. I adore the decorations within each room, setting the right theme for the environment. I definitely recommend everyone to book their next getaway here as I will be returning back in the near future guaranteed. Overall above expectations. Thank you, Padre Escapes, for everything.

2nd time but probably the last...

Love the place, location, pool, etc ...BUT We just can't sleep on those mattresses, they're so uncomfortable :( I had to sleep on the sofa halfway through the night. I really wish the mattresses would get an upgrade, until then we just can't go back.

The cottage was just right. We were very pleased. However, shortly after I provided my email I have been slammed with spam-like emails. It’s sad to think my email was sold to others.

Very Nice Place

We enjoyed our stay. The property was as advertised, very clean and in a nice location. Close to the different beach locations. We especially liked the floor plan, the two bedrooms were across the main living area from each other, so there was a sense of space and privacy. We also appreciated being able to bring our dogs and have an enclosed courtyard. We would definitely stay here again.

Needs Improvement

Great location, nice floorplan, & nice pool, but there were some issues. Beds were horrible. Felt like discount mattresses, wife and I tossed and turned all night. Master br fan is spinning wrong way and no way to correct it. Master br toilet leaks and makes a horrible screaming sound when it fills back up. Scared the heck out of me at least 2 times the first night. I had to shut off the water valve to get some sleep.

Nice set up

This cottage worked well for our family. Having the pool iff the back door was great. The house could use an updated couch, most pillows had tears in them or didn’t zip up. The beds allowed for 1 pillow per guest, with pillows in the closet with no other pillow cases. The house could also use a deep clean. Sand on the floors, under coffee tables, and couch upon arrival. Kitchen cabinets were peeling on the sides. The space was nice, but expected a cleaner property for the price.

Will definitely be back.

This was the best birthday weekend ever. Our place was exactly like the pictures. Walked in and a birthday gift was waiting for me from the property management, that was a complete surprise. This place was stocked just like a regular home it had everything we needed to prepare our meals everything was thought of. The pool was cool and refreshing. The only downside was it rained 2 of the 4 days we were there. More sun would have made it a complete paradise. It was quiet and conveniently located to everything. We are already planning the next getaway. Management is the best and great to work with. Don't wait to book a stay. Much better than any hotel/motel.

This was our first time staying in Corpus Christi. Everything was very clean. Just a short drive to restaurants, grocery store, and beach! We will be staying here again!! Thank you for allowing big dogs. We have a very gentle chocolate lab and sadly finding it very difficult to travel with him due to his size. Please know this is why we booked here because of the pet policy!
