Money Beach: 4th of July week now available as a Friday or Saturday check in!

10/10 Excellent

"bring your own crockpot, otherwise dishes and cutlery more than adequate for very large groups. one beach towel provided with every bathtowel inventory."

Salty dog on the rocks

8/10 Good

"Great place to stay, great location. Bottom floor of the property is not ideal for 4 people, it would best suit 3 or less. AC on the bottom floor is a bit lacking but we made it work. It's in a super cool spot that felt like you had your own private beach and the private pool was nice."

Gulf Front! Private Pool! Hot Tub! Dog-Friendly!

10/10 Excellent

"The place was amazing for our family of 6 adults and 7 children. The detached downstairs bedroom was good for the older preteen. The hot tub was excellent. The few snags we ran into were handled quickly and efficiently. Communication was quite timely. Well stocked kitchen with utensils, plates, cups and even a griddle.Smart TVs in every bed room. Plenty of towels.Great view of the beach from both balconies Small negative: small all in one washer/dryer unit so we had to do laundry round the clock almost."

Isla Del Oro: 4th of July week now available as a Friday or Saturday check in!

8/10 Good

"Pros: house is great size. It’s very nice and was clean. We had large family of 16 and plenty of room. Plenty of bedrooms and baths. Plenty of room for everyone to sit for meals and hanging out together and separately. View is beautiful! Nice pool area. Two large fridges, 3 mini fridge and two ice makers and dishwashers were great! Plenty of parking. Close to town. We had yellow flags when Cape had double red first of week.Cons: water pressure was terrible all through the house. Most of the bathrooms had no hot or even warm water after 3rd day. Called to report 3 times and we’re just told they would call plumber. No one ever came. There is a cracked window near ceiling on main floor, and bugs came in - noseeums I believe. We vacuumed them up every night. Reported this also. Exterminator came while we were about to sit down for dinner and said he would come back. He never came back. You definitely cannot access the beach directly due to the bayou in front of the house although others had commented you can. The property description stated this, but we were hoping. Recommend golf cart to get to beach access - @ 1/2 mile. We also rented paddleboard and crossed with that, but there were gators in there. They never came close. Some of the men walked across in waist deep water, but it was gross! Gulf water is not clear in this area. It’s more like the Atlantic."
