Oceanfront Corpus Christi Condo w/ Pool!

Reviews

• Ok but older

  3/5

  The view of the ocean great. The Condo is small. The queen bed is very high and requires steps to get on and off. The shower had only really hot water. It was not stocked with items that other condos in the same price range have. The owner would not allow us to use the dead bolt to secure the door when we were inside the unit, as it was "part of the keypad, not to be used by tenant, but controlled by owner". The keypad was in the outside of the door. It alerts the owner if you turn the deadbolt on the inside. There was too much and too large furniture for the very small condo.It is only suitable for 2 adults and 2 children, definitely not for Seniors. The 2 plastic chairs on the patio were not as pictured. The icemaker does not work, the office personnel were great, the pool ok. I have used VRBO many, many times, this was the most disappointing. I would definitely not stay again.

• Conference Condo

  5/5

  We booked this for our conference at American bank center. Easy to get to and get back. Right on the beach. Great place.

• Corpus christi stay

  Was way less than what we expected. Had hard time connecting to internet. No TV remotes. Floors dirty. Toilet running. Furniture oversized for the condo. Keys to gates not working. Door lock coming apart. Hard communication with management nd ownership.

  Hi Majdi, thanks for your review. After going over your feedback with the homeowner, they wanted to share the following:
  - When you let us know you were having WiFi issues, we immediately reached out to our internet provider. They checked and verified that the WiFi was working.
  - The remotes for both the TVs were located in the condo, and you confirmed this with us during your stay.
  - The floors are swept and mopped before every guest's arrival as part of your cleaning process.
  - When the cleaners arrived an hour after check-out, they were surprised to see you still at the property. If possible, we're always happy to accommodate a late check-out, but guests need to request this in advance.
  Thanks for letting us know about your stay!

• Bugs ruined the relaxation factor

  2/5

  This unit had a cockroach problem (also referred to as palmetto bugs). It's the BEST VIEW of the bay and the ships, but we could not fully relax because of the little pests everywhere. Check to make sure it's been exterminated before you get there! We saw them crawling on the table while we were eating take-out Fri night, on the bathroom faucet/sink while brushing my teeth, crawling on the wall that the bed is shoved against, inside the utensil drawer, on and on etc. It was very unpleasant. It's an old building and the balcony doors get left open a lot. The owner offered to send maintenance to assist and offered a discount on a future stay. Also, as of Oct 2021 the elevator at this end of the building is under construction. Not too big a deal unless you have a handicapped family member like us who can't do stairs. It was a long walk to the working elevator. Helpful to know. I should have asked in advance.

  Hi Arc, we want all of our guests to rest easy when they stay with us, and we're sorry that you experienced some issues during your trip. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to clarify the following:
  - After your stay, the cleaning crew examined and confirmed that no pests were found in the condo. I offered to send someone over to the condo to address the bug issue, but this was denied by your group.
  - The cleaning crew also had to spend extra time to fumigate the condo due to the smoke odor left behind in a nonsmoking condo. While we want our guests to enjoy their stay here, we also need them to respect our house rules and treat the property as their own.
  - The sliding glass door works properly and can be shut. I ask guests to please keep the door shut when not in use, especially with the A/C running.
  Thanks for taking the time to leave a review.

• ISSUES

  2/5

  I was very dissapointed when we got there because the AC was not working and could not get a hold with the owner, it took like 3 hours to get an answer. this condominium is very small for a family of 6, it looks old and we saw several roaches in the kitchen. sorry but I would not recommend this unit.
