Great Beach Getaway

Reviewed on 2020-07-13 by David N. , San Antonio, TX United States

Overall

Location Location Location! Easy Beach and Pool Access from a ground floor unit. We did a Tue-Fri stay and the vacation couldn't have gone smoother. The check-in and check-out was completely contactless, didn't have to go by the office for anything. The unit is pretty basic but everything was in working order. We prepared all our meals at the unit, if your planning the same, recommend you bring extra trash bags and cleaning supplies as what they have is pretty limited, scrub brush was worn out, no dish washing liquid, we did find one brillo pad. Based on recent reviews, we were a little leery of bugs but very happy to report that we didn't see a one. During our stay, social distancing at the beach and the pool was very easy to do, not crowded at all at both locations. All in All, a great vacation and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property.

Overall

Location Location Location! Easy access to the boardwalk and the very large pool from a ground floor unit. We did a Tue-Fri stay and it was very quiet, the beach and the pool were not crowded at all and it was easy to socially distance at both locations. The unit itself is pretty basic but it was clean and everything was in working order, absolutely stress free. From the recent reviews, we were a little leery of bugs but happy to report, we didn't see a one inside the unit. We did prepare all our meals at the unit, so recommend you bring extra cleaning supplies as the unit provides limited trash bags, the scrubbing sponge was wore out and there was no dish washing liquid, we did find 1 brillo pad. But there were plenty of dishes, glasses, and utensils. Bottom line, Our family had a great and relaxing time and we wouldn't hesitate to book again or recommend to others. Also, the entire check-in and check out process was completely contactless, never had to run by the main office for anything.

Fine value!

Nothing fancy, but beach proximity is good (although we prefer the beach that is further from town). It was reasonably clean, and customer service/response to COVID questions was really good.

Comfortable Acomodations with one exception

Reviewed on 2020-06-22 by , San Antonio , TX US

Overall

The location was good with a very easy walk to the beach. The only issue we had was having to deal with bugs in every room, roaches, and other creatures. Island Retreat needs to hire reliable exterminators.
If it weren't for the bug problem I would have rated 5 stars.

63 Island Retreat Review

Reviewed on 2020-05-26 by , Bedford, TX United States

Overall

It was maintained well, there were a few insects spotted, dead and alive. There could be a few more kitchen items included for that price, extra garbage bags, few more towels. It was quiet except for some kids stomping around upstairs, which is out of your control of course. Check in Time was delayed a little bit, but got in within an hour of the time they promised. Overall a great weekend.

Manager's Response

Thank you for your review. We are glad you had quiet stay at this property. We will pass along the kitchen suggestions to the owner. We appreciate your business and hope you will stay with us again.

Port A vaca

Overall

We had a wonderful vacation. It has been a family tradition for more than 40 years and this year was great as always. The condo was clean and convenient to the beach and pool. If I had to make a suggestion it would be that we would have had more room for our own personal food and supplies. The rooms were well equipped but we needed to move things around a bit to fit in our own groceries and such.
Overall it was a wonderful week.

Overall

#63@ island retreat nice and clean and comfortable from top to bottom. However there were a few discrepancies. Thermostat was difficult to set. At night unit temp would register at 82 degrees, and even during the day we couldn't get comfortable. Sofa cushions and pillows had sickening odor, like body sweat or wet dog. We had to cover it with a blanket. Master bdrm king bed was exceptionally comfortable,the very best to sleep.also, we stayed a week and had no way to wash towels as there is no washer or dryer in this will cost you $4.00 to wash a very small load of towels in the laundry room. Poor linen service for what we paid to e management were concerned about complaints,and would look into making changes.probably would not rent this unit again.

Manager's Response

We would have been more than happy to address your issues had you given us a call. We do our best to make sure each property is in working order, but as guests check in and out for each stay, some things are not brought to our attention. We hope you had a great time and will consider us again in the future.

End condo unit in a quiet complex. Some of the complex was still under renovation from the hurricane, but this unit was untouched. Beds were so comfortable and the space was just right for our large family of six. Island Retreat pools are great. Walked to the beach everyday. Had a few snags with our unit but a Life in a paradise fixed them quickly. They are a great property management company.

Manager's Response

Hello Alicia,

Thank you for taking the time to submit your review, we are thrilled that you enjoyed the condo, it is a great spot to be near the beach! Thank you for understanding the situation in Islander Retreat, some units in the complex are not rentable, but this unit is in great shape. We hope to see you again soon

Necessary Details Not Provided Before Payment

Reviewed on 2018-06-17 by Olinda L. , San Marcos, TX United States

Overall

Arriving in the afternoon after driving several hours to find a contract to sign, not previously seen, or even mentioned, too late to cancel plans since you already had my $$, irritating. Having construction person approach me on patio 2nd day there to say they would be working on building, but not giving me a duration estimate, stressful. Having a bitchy apt manager come knocking on our door and acting like I had asked that construction be halted, when I had already spoken to Sebastian from your company, who supposedly had talked to the complex mgt. person, infuriating. I never receiving the time line request that I asked, the contractor, Sebastian and the bitchy mgt. person for, very unprofessional. Sebastian offered a $250 discount for the inconvenience, which I have NOT seen show up on my credit card statement. When will that appear??? To top it all off there were huge, finger sized centipedes crawling around the condo, and the living room furniture was extremely uncomfortable and couch/pillows dirty. Sebastian also stated I had gotten a night's stay free, which had not been discussed when I booked and paid. I'd like information on that as well as when the $250 credit will appear.

Manager's Response

Hello Olinda,
Thank you for submitting your review, we normally send out the contract via email when you make the reservation, I saw we had sent it on April 30th, you must not have noticed or seen it, when you check in after hours we place the contract with your welcome packet so you can sign it right before you check in as the final opportunity, unfortunately Island Retreat is still undergoing renovations after Hurricane Harvey, we mention this on the description of the property, we did not have a time table for when the work would be completed and that is why we offered compensation and could not give you a time of completion. Unfortunately, when there is a CAT 4 Hurricane, not all the work can be completed in a timely matter. I issued the $250.00 credit to you CC on June 10 and it normally takes 2- 3 business days and should already be back in your account. We cannot control centipedes crawling around the outside of the condo, we do have pest control services that spray that unit in a quarterly basis. The free night was shown on your confirmation email that we sent you after you made your reservation, I will resend you the confirmation email to you so you can see that it breaks down your total price and it shows you there is a night that the charges were $0.00. When we spoke about the Hurricane you acted sincere to the situation, now on the review, your sympathy disappeared

Thanks,
Life in Paradise

Our initial condo we rented had mouse feces in one of the beds and on the towels in one of the bathrooms. We were not made aware that the pool was not useable. Immediately upon voicing our complaints the Life in Paradise people met us at our condo and led us to apne in much better condition. Im sure this was a far more expensive condo but they moved us free of charge and were very nice! The 5stars is not for 63 Island Retreat but the condo we were moved to.
