Ohana Hideaway

This house was a little piece of heaven. It is beautiful on both the inside and the outside. The hideaway included every amenity you could possibly think of. The beds were comfortable, the linens were spectacular, showers were clean and spacious...truly everything you could want and more. Richard even let us check in earlier to accommodate our travel plans. This place is definitely worth a stay! Check it out! Thanks, Ohana Hideaway for making our stay wonderful!

The PERFECT Texas Beach House!

Amazing place for a family beach vacay! This home is ultra clean and amazingly cozy. Nice bedding, soft towels and a FULLY stocked kitchen. Lots of coffee making options and every pot/pan/utensil needed.The location is unbeatable, less than a 2 min walk to the beach inside a gated community that was very secure. Less than a 10 min drive to several great restaurants, bars & shopping. Plenty of seating inside and out for our party of 8.The upstairs deck has great views, we spent a lot of time bird watching and enjoying listening to the frogs in the pond at night. The tiki bar and huge picnic tables on the ground level were cool and breezy and perfect for dinner off the charcoal grill. The outdoor shower perfect for washing off the beach.Lots of beach toys, boogie boards, sand castle toys, etc. Plus a two person hammock.There are thoughtful extras in every room, makeup removal towels and makeup mirrors in every bathroom. Books and games. They even had a high chair, and pack & play for the kiddos.Plenty of parking, we had 4 cars and could have fit more!It’s very serene and peaceful. We can’t wait to come back. My niece cried when we told her it was time to pack to go home.

Ohana Hideaway

My husband and I recently stayed at Ohana Hideaway and had a fantastic experience. The house had all the amenities one could need, making our stay incredibly comfortable. Our two dogs absolutely loved the fenced-in yard and the spacious deck, which provided plenty of room for them to play and relax.The bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep, and there were plenty of towels and blankets available. The kitchen was fully stocked with cooking utensils needed to prepare a meal, which made dining in a breeze.The location of Ohana Hideaway is simply stunning. The house offers great views of the Gulf and the nearby bird sanctuary, which made for a serene and picturesque setting. The neighborhood was very quiet, providing a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle.Overall, Ohana Hideaway is a wonderful place to stay, especially if you're traveling with pets.We would definitely stay there again. Highly recommended!
