Some good, some not so good!
3/5 We loved the location of this property—close enough to walk to the things we wanted to see in Port Isabel and just a very short drive over the bridge to South Padre Island.The backyard was as beautiful as it looks in the pictures. Unfortunately (especially as someone who brought a young child who wanted to play in the yard and paid an extra fee to bring our dog)—the backyard was covered in dog stool and there was nothing to clean it up with. We had to contact the owner to be able to access the personal shed to get a shovel to clean up 15 mounds of dog poop. I understand that this was the previous guests’ responsibility to clean up after their pet—but it would be nice if supplies were available to clean up after your pet (since it’s a pet-friendly location) and if the cleaning crew checked this as part of their service before giving the okay for the next guest to come in. The back porch was so nice. We loved the window from the kitchen that looked out onto the backyard. I do feel like it should be disclosed that the bathroom is not appropriate for anyone with mobility issues. The entry is extremely narrow. The shower is a completely tiled stall shower with nothing to hold onto. Had either of my elderly parents been with us, I would not have felt safe with them using this shower. It was definitely hard to shower a small child in it!I also had to spend over an hour dealing with the host trying to figure out the alarm system that was not working. Very frustrating.

Tropical home
5/5 Older Florida home nestled in tropical landscape. Fenced in yard was great for dog. Owner was very accommodating. Location was very convenient to restaurants & grocery stores. Only a short drive over the bridge to the island.
