Perfect sombrero stay

We just love the sombrero beach area and this house certainly provided! Very close to the beach for walking or biking. The property sits back off the main road and there's plenty of privacy. The dock had plenty of room for our boat and kayak and paddleboard. The house was clean and had most of what we needed. We drive down and always pack supplies for the kitchen and between our stuff and what's there we were able to cook plenty. The dish disposal broke while we were there, and they came the same day to fix it. The towels were either new, or cheap, and when we used them they left white fuzz all over us. Besides that, perfect stay!

Cute house on the water

There was two families staying with a total of 8 people and it was plenty big enough. We enjoyed the conviennce of being on the water to get to and from our boat. The kids loved cooling off in the pool after a hot day on the water. Would rent again in the future.

Great place to stay!

This is a great place with plenty of room and very private for the location. We enjoyed the pool area alot even tho it is small right around the pool the upper deck is great for laying in the sun or at night watching the stars. The boat dock is great.

Great stay for price

We stayed at this location for 9 nights. We liked how the bedrooms were set up. The pocket door closed off the spare bedrooms and gave us more privacy. The mattress in the queen bedroom was terrible and really needs replacing. Also, the beach chairs were torn and not able to be used. We kept our jet ski at the dock and it was only a 10 min slow ride out. My kids loved the pool. We just wish the pool lights were working for late night swimming. House needs some updating but it was a great price.

Great getaway!

We really enjoyed the peace and quiet this home offers. Great views. Sombero beach is within walking distance and is very nice. We brought both sets of parents and everyone had a good time. I might recommend taking out the trundle bed and putting another queen bed in the house. Other than that, everything was perfect!

Not impressed with the house

House needs a lot of updating. Bed sheets look worn out. No TVs or cable in the bedrooms. Kitchen is not fully functioning with all things you need to prepare meals we had to go out and buy things. Dryer did not work well had to dry a load multiple times.

Construction next to property

The location is great and pool and privacy was nice. We had to go buy pillows, bedding was minimal! Stains on pillows and towels. Home needs some maintenance. Only 3 lounge chairs around pool and all were broken. You could not see the canal because of vegetation. The worse problem was construction next to the home where we had to listen to a Jack hammer all day! We could not converse because of noise! Friends stopped by and left because it was so annoying! I called management and did not get a response! Very disappointing when you pay a higher price for a larger home!

Missing a few key items

We found this place lacking a few things. Hot water would not work in master bath so all used a small bathroom. Texted number given, no response. Slow drain in small bathroom. Fresh water to dock not working so couldn't rinse anything there. Lighting not adequate for days where sun goes down at 5:30 pm. Carpet appeared dirty. No beach towels we could find. Needs new blender and a pizza cutter:) Location and wide canal great though!
