A great place to stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Reel Beachy was perfect for my party of 4 adults and 4 children. It is close to the pool which the kids really enjoyed. Everything we needed was provided. We used the grill one night (in the commons area) and even had grilling supplies provided. No complaints from us!

Fun In The Sun

The unit itself was clean The complex could use someone cleaning up the trash that was laying around. The large trash dumpsters need the trash picked up more often & the dumpster site itself cleaned up. Lazy people were placing their trash in overflowing dumpsters.

Wonderful townhome

The townhome was spacious and the amenities were great. The only negative was the abundance of gnats all over the kitchen and dining room.

Corpus Christi stay

We originally booked another condo but they had problems and Lisa was able to at the last minute get us another location. It was close to the bay and we had a view from the terrace. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend
