We very much enjoyed our time there. The home was well appointed, plenty of towels and kitchenware. The BBQ that is provided however, was a fire hazard with it being extremely rusted to the point of the legs no longer being level. But overall, it was great! Thank you to the owners for allowing us to rent it it!

Great property we really enjoyed our time communication was great. The only thing I wish would be different was a washer and dryer in the home rather than a community laundromat. The listing does say it’s coin laundry I just rather the convenience of having in home especially for a beach stay.

Matagorda Beach and Bay Getaway

Perfect location for day at the beach and for East Matagorda Bay wade fishing (no boat). This condo was exactly what we expected and it was perfect for our family of 5. Beach, pool, fish, repeat.

Loved the view. Take your own toilet paper & paper towels & trash bags. Condo was nice. Needs a dresser in room with twin beds. The closet with queen bed was locked so we had to share a closet. Host very nice. Pool nice.

Beautiful view

Overall, we had a great stay at this condo (4 adults/3kids). Check in was bumpy as the cleaning people had not finished when we arrived so we had to wait. Owner had attempted to warn us, but internet was spotty and we did not know until we arrived. The condo is laid out and furnished well. Upstairs was great for the kids to have their own area. We could have used some wine glasses and a pitcher but otherwise the kitchen had everything we needed. The walkway to the beach was tricky and overgrown. A gentleman stopped us and told us to watch for rattlesnakes and warned we shouldn't use it. That was unnerving. We do not have 4x4 so driving on the beach was not happening. The pool was good to have after a day at the beach. We enjoyed the area, less crowded than Port A and Galveston. We have stayed in Matagorda 3 times and would return to this condo specifically again.

Best Beach House Ever

This is our first time going to Matagorda, and we intend to be back. This beach house is just perfect. It's clean, it has two beautiful decks, it's walking distance from the beach, and the pool is amazing. It's seriously one of the best beach houses I've stayed in. We wanted a place where we didn't have to drive the entire trip and this was it. A few things to note: 1) The walk to the beach is a trail through the dunes. I think that's the same anywhere you'd stay in Matagorda, but just be aware of it. I had a wagon with our beach stuff, and boy that was a challenge. Not sure I'd use it again. I also had to be super careful about the toddler not getting into the prickly stuff on either side of the path. 2) The pool is wonderful! We spent as much time at the pool as the beach. 3) The upstairs room is not closed off to the rest of the house. This was perfect for us, because it has a queen and two twins. I could sleep up there with the kids and they didn't disturb the others. However, it does mean that you hear everything that happens downstairs. When my dad started cleaning the kitchen at 6am, it quickly woke up the 2 year-old. Hope you enjoy this lovely house as much as we did!

This is the BEST beach condo in Matagorda TX. It was immaculately clean. The place actually looks like the pictures. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen had what I needed to cook meals. The view was the best and our favorite part of the whole trip. We watched the sun rise every morning. I have no complaints at all. The pool was newly renovated and perfect. My kids had so much fun swimming. Check in was quick and the host was super friendly and responded quickly to my questions. Highly recommend!!!! (There were six of us).

Great vacation spot

The house was perfect for our needs. The location is great. Having the pool was nice when we wanted a break from the beach. My only suggestion to make it better would be to mow a proper path accross the dunes or build a walkway. The mesquitos were awful on that walk.

Reservation was for 4 nights / 5 days, only 10 towels were given for this stay which is unacceptable given we were at the beach daily. Who wants to shower with the same towel each night, most people shower nightly, just saying. Beds were SUPER uncomfortable, AC cut out at night, host said it cuts off to prevent freezing. We only put the AC on 70, so there is no reason for it to freeze up.

Location location location

This property was a perfect location for a short girls’ getaway at the beach. And all-in-all it was wonderful!! While the beach IS within walking distance from the condo, the dunes trail is hilly and uneven and is accompanied by a rather large swarm of aggressive mosquitoes! Like, terrible mosquitoes! The hosts do have bug spray available but we were absolutely bombarded by the pests anytime we were on the ground level of the property until we got to the water. We wished there had been a few extra towels provided including a dishtowel. Other than that, the beds were comfortable and the stay was pleasant!
