Cozy quarters
While a lovely spot, the “sleeps 6” description speaks more to physical bedspace than practicality of actually having six people get a good night‘s rest. It’s a bit cozy for 6. ;)
Master Bed mattress and sheets could use an upgrade, for comfort. Blinds in Master Bedroom also missing any ability to be adjusted.
A lovely spot for a weekend getaway for 2!

Island Experience
The property was cozy and worked well for our family. I loved the bunk beds built into the nook in the wall. That was such a great use of space. There was plenty of room for the six of us. We enjoyed our stay on Padre Island. Where we stayed, there is a pool outside the bedroom window and the groups are very loud are out there very late at night (until close to 2:00 a.m.) Since we were on vacation, it wasn't a huge inconvenience, but it was annoying.
