We loved the views and being on the water. Wished we had our fishing poles as fish were jumping and pelicans diving into the water. The place was a little out dated and no water pressure in the bathroom at all. It was cheap and would stay again as the view was worth the stay.

Generally OK
Stayed for 21 days. Positives: back decking directly on the small waterway & marshland views; Long Island Village is a friendly community with nice amenities; home is priced lower than most..Not so positive: older home in need of some upkeep; smells musty/moldy; generally clean, but rusty/rough around the edges.

A very comfortable place to stay!
The bed was so comfortable and the bathroom was small but nice. The dining area table and chairs probably need to be replaced. Other than that, no complaints and we really enjoyed out stay!

sittin' on the dock of the bay, watching time and rockets flying away"
The fishing was fun, the rocket launch viewing was incredible. There are maybe 30 spots around as good as this one, 20 are homes, this had the best value.

Nice community with activities. Large deck right on the water. Good location. Cleaning crew needs to focus on cleaning from wall to wall, not just beds and counter tops. I swept the floor and there was dirt and dust that had clearly been there a very long time.

The view, scenery was great. Inside first appearance is nice but roaches start coming out at night and the bathroom needed to be cleaned correctly. There was clipped hair in the shower, like someone had shaved. Probably would not come back to this property.
First of all, I never received the check in instructions/access code. We were waiting outside the property for about an hour and a half. During that time, I was trying to contact the host through online message and phone, but no answer. And when they finally contacted me via phone, I spent another 20-30 minutes getting the right access code. The host kept giving the incorrect code. So this was a big waste of our time. Secondly, the trailer is out of date and needs a lot of repair and upkeep. The back door to the patio, kept opening with the wind and didn't remain shut unless you lock it from the inside. Third, the water pressure from the shower is horrible and the water lever kept coming off the stem. Fourth, who ever is cleaning the place needs to do a better job, there dead roaches inside. I can go on and on but I'm sure you get what I'm trying to imply. The last thing and this is a safety concern is the cut open flooring in the kitchen, my wife tripped a few times, almost falling to the floor. We travel a lot, and by far this has been the worst experience we ever had. I would not recommend this place or wish this experience on anyone.
The property was nice, scenery was great. This was our toddlers first fishing outing. We had seen in the reviews that the bed was uncomfortable, well that was putting it lightly, the bed would make a loud squeaking noise when getting on the bed. Roaches was a problem too, one had landed on me and scared me. Fishing was nice for my boys and was safe because of the fence. Overall, outdoors was much better than indoors.

I am not going to say there was mod in the unit, but I am very allergic to mold and when in the unit, I was stopped up and had headaches. It was so bad, I was suppose to leave on Thursday the 8th, but left early on Sunday the 4th. The first night I thought it was stale and musty from lack of use and ac running. We were only in the unit at night, so during the day I would get better. On the second night, it started when we came back in. I checked the ac filter in the floor in the dining area and it was all crumpled up, not fitting the rectangle access to the duct work, and extremely dirty. I tried to straighten it the best I could. Also, it is a central unit and the compressor did not come on the entire time we were there. It just blew air. Fan on outside unit never came on. We did talk to the check in place but they referred us to the unit rental company, which I did on the only number I had. They told me what to do for early leaving, ie dishes and bedding, and thanked me for letting them know about the ac. By the third morning, I had had enough and could no longer stay in the unit, and left. The only saving grace was a window ac unit in the add on section of the unit that allowed for some fresh air.
The best thing about this property was the view of the Gulf and Space X. Also the deck was awesome. Having a washer and dryer was a big plus. However, this park model needs some updating. Not all the blinds worked; there was a stain in the toilet; there was limited kitchenware and cleaning supplies. During a strong rain storm, the vent fan in the bathroom leaked. We would suggest a tv in the bedroom. Only one tv caused some disagreements! Parking was ok since we had just one vehicle. Two vehicles would have been a challenge. Not sure we would spend a month like we did this year. The view, the deck and washer/dryer were BIG pluses. There are a lot of items the need cleaning and updating.

Relaxing Stay in Sunny Port Isabel
We enjoyed our stay for the most part at this property on Long Island Village. The unit is basically an extended mobile home, but it was clean and has a great deck that overlooks a waterway (but not the bay). The bathroom was very small, but otherwise the place had the basics we wanted for a relaxing stay. It's in a quiet gated community of retirees and winter snowbirds, which we preferred over the rowdy college crowd on SP Island over spring break. The village has an indoor and outdoor pool, hot tub, tennis courts and several amenities that we didn't take advantage of. Comfortable for a couple to stay at, with a queen size bed in the bedroom, but the sofa bed in the living room was uncomfortable, either as a bed or a couch for that matter. And more bedding and linens would be appreciated. We had to call for sofa bed sheets, which they promptly delivered. There is a washer and dryer but no dishwasher, although they provided dishwashing soap pods for some reason. It's not fancy, but it was more spacious and comfortable than a hotel room. Note that they charge a $80 community fee over and above the booking fees, which you pay when you check in.

Long Island View Stay
I always love my stay at Long Island, but this time I was a little just a little disappointed. The shower door would not close and they said they would come fix it that day and call before they cam. That wasn’t the case they came the following day with out a call. And the knob on the shower handle was broken and we had to use the metal stem to turn on and the did the shower. Other that those things I loved my stay and will stay again.
I will start with positives. I loved the location overall. The people on the holiday park were all openly friendly. I do wish there were place to eat and or drink, that were within a reasonable walking distance. For meals out we were forced to drive.
My main negative was the $80 dollar parking fee and facilities fee. I only finding out about it the day before arriving. We never used the facilities so that was useless fee for me and my spouse.
The door code to the unit arrived on the morning of my arrival to my rental. My UK mobile provider did not provide mobile data in the US, so I did not have internet to access the door code. When I asked the lady at check-in if I could use their internet to access my mail to get the code I was told no. I had to go and find a place with public wifi to access my e-mail to get the door code. Luckily there is a Walmart near with public wi-fi.
I don't blame vrbo for the issue regarding Wi-Fi, it would have been helpful if they had sent the door code via email and text. That would have been really helpful.
Overall, I had a wonderful trip so it was not all bad.

I called the number to let them no the problems I was having and no one came out and I was there frm thrusday to Sunday and had to see roaches in the bedroom and kitchen he view was nice and the ppl was very friendly but I will never stay there again
It is a little more worn than some properties, but it was described accurately. They also recently added a newer sofa bed. This would also be a great location to view Spacex launches from!
