YOU must be 25+ years or older to rent per our villa complex homeowner association rules... and the limit is strictly enforced at 8 (unless there is a baby - we can do 9 if 1 is in a crib/pack n play) - thanks!
With two floors of living space, you have lots of room to spread out - give the kids their own floor, or comfortably accommodate two families with this great floor plan! We even have a high chair and pack-n-play onsite for our littlest guests' use (you can bring 9 if one of 'em will use the pack n play)!
This two floor loft villa has a nice sized bedroom upstairs (pictured) with a full bath attached; an open loft bedroom next to it with a twin/double bunk setup that sleeps three comfortably; and the downstairs master bedroom (also pictured), full bath, and kitchen (pictured), dining area (pictured), and cathedral ceiling living room with pullout couch downstairs. Each room has a ceiling fan to keep the cool breezes moving! We're continually upgrading the villa - just finished painting a few rooms and installing new ceiling fans, a new refrigerator and dishwasher, and new mattresses for both queen-sized beds...
We've LOADED this unit with lots of 'extras' to make your stay easier and more fun -- in addition to the basic amenities of a coffee maker and toaster, our kitchen includes both a microwave and toaster oven for quick heating/crisping, 2 blenders for making those frozen drinks (no waiting - make two different flavors at once! We make an 'original' and 'virgin' version of the same drinks so everyone is included!); a waffle maker to help you 'cater in' breakfast in the morning - just make your own waffles to order!; and a George Foreman Grill when you don't want to bother with lighting up the outdoor grill (great for cooking a few hot dogs or hamburgers to get the little ones fed quickly) We have a washer and dryer (you supply your own laundry soap, please), 2 DVD players (living room and downstairs bedroom), a DVD library, VHS players (up and down) with a VHS library, and multiple TVs throughout the unit to keep everyone entertained when you're not at the beach. We've got a hot air popcorn popper so you can do 'movie night' at the villa, and cable TV with tons of channels! This is all in addition to the standard amenities such as new full-sized refrigerator complete with icemaker, new ceramic top stove, new dishwasher, standard spices (set of 12) for your use when cooking, and full sets of dishes, glassware, silverware, and pots and pans...
We are located outside downtown, on the ocean beachside of Highway 361 -- so you can walk to the nice ocean waves and white sandy beaches rather than be on the channel side with an inlet and no waves. The unit has a minimum two night rental requirement (three nights on holidays), and is a short five minute walk to the beach via the wood boardwalk. Sorry, but there are NO PETS allowed (in the entire condo complex - not just our rules) and this is a NON-SMOKING only unit.
There are two pools on property (pictured is the one just outside our villa) as well as sports courts (tennis and basketball). Best of all is a wash station right at the boardwalk entrance - you can rinse off all that sand and salt and leave it all outside! We also leave sand toys for your use - the sand toys are onsite so you don't have to drag your little ones' toys with you if you don't want to! [PLEASE remember to leave the toys when you depart so they're there for the next guests...]
Leave your cares behind as you stroll the beach at sunrise... Sip a cool drink from our second floor 'sunset balcony' off the back second floor bedroom, while the sun slips down the horizon. Watch the lights of Corpus Christi twinkling in the distance in the evenings... or view the stars in all their glory.
We are down the road from horseback riding and fishing; downtown has lots of great restaurants and bars, and plenty of shopping. Don't have a bathing suit that fits - just buy one here at one of the many stores that have a huge selection!
You are also 30 mins away from Corpus Christi, where a visit to the USS Lexington or the Texas Aquarium are perfect alternatives to the beach. Or go a few miles north to Rockport, for a day of art galleries and jewelry shopping... there's so much to do!
Now for the boring stuff - pricing:
Pricing is in tiers - there are different prices for summer vs. low season, spring break, and holidays vs. non-holiday weekends, so read the pricing dates carefully to make sure you're selecting the correct level. This is all detailed in the pricing section below - just find the dates that apply to you! Holidays are 3 days at the higher rate, and a 3 day minimum rental; if you rent for 6 days, as an example, you are charged 3 days at the holiday rate and 3 days at the non-holiday rate (and if you rent for 7 days, the lower rate night is the free night).
We accept credit card payment for a small 3% fee -- this allows you to immediately book your vacation once we confirm receipt -- what could be easier!
Please - NO MORE THAN 8 OCCUPANTS - THIS IS THE INSURANCE LIMIT unless 1 is an infant and sleeps in the pack n play. You will be required to check in at the office when you arrive in order to get a parking pass for each car.
While we encourage you to contact us IMMEDIATELY if you are renting the unit and there is an emergency. Otherwise, please let us know about issues WHILE YOU ARE THERE, as THERE ARE NO REFUNDS ISSUED AFTER YOU CHECK OUT. We ask that you only call between 9 am and 10 pm for non-emergencies - thanks!
Cancellation policy:
You may cancel 30 days or more in advance with no penalty. Within 15-30 days - a 25% penalty applies; within 14 days, no refunds (unless we can re-rent your dates).
Hurricanes - if the island is evacuated by the government, of course your money is refunded. Otherwise, cancellation policy applies.
