The property was exactly as described, clean, well maintained, and ready for our arrival. Any questions we had were answered quickly, and the level of customer service really stood out. It's clear that the team takes pride in both their properties and their guests' experience. We made wonderful memories with family and friends and couldn't have asked for a better vacation. Thank you to the entire Life in Paradise team for your outstanding hospitality. We look forward to booking with you again!

We had a good time at Mustang Towers but were very disappointed with certain aspects of the condo…read more 1. We cook a lot and the kitchen severely lacked working utensils . The manual can opener did not work at all. One mixers did not work at all and the other one was very poor. We had to scramble around with other guest and neighbors to borrow their items. 2. The Air conditioner filter looks like they haven't been changed in about 2 years and have a very thick about of lint. 3. We ran out of toilet paper and was told by the property managers that we need to buy our own. That means we have to go into town to buy toilet paper. I have an Airbnb and would never tell our guest to buy their own toilet paper. Receiving a message like that makes me want to care less about turning up the temperature on the AC to save you money. It makes me less motivated to leave the condo as clean as possible. For $2 or $3 you certainly taint how I fell about staying there. 4. Maybe not your issue but the umbrella that we rented was not very good. The auger bit to drill a hole in the sand is not make for hard sand on PA beaches. The only way we could use the umbrella was to manually dig a hole with a borrowed shovel so the hole was deep enough to withstand the wind. 5. The furniture in this condo was a lot older than other MT condos that we stayed in.

Peaceful when we wanted peace; fun when we wanted fun. No need to fuss over whether or not I brought everything I needed for the beach. If I forgot something or needed to pee - the house was 200 yards away. Everyone could kind of do their own thing (chill on the deck in the sun or take a nap in the shade, post up on the beach, watch a movie, cook) and at the same time, there was room for everyone to be a family together in the evening. We did The Black Marlin for dinner the first night (spectacular food and pretty good service). We also took advantage of the kitchen for a home-cooked meal the second night. I'm a pretty picky eater and a picky cook, and this kitchen had all the equipment I needed for the weekend. Most importantly - it was the best two nights of sleep I have had in a long, long time.

La La Land was a gorgeous home and we would definitely stay at this unit again. Unfortunately, our most recent stay included several service and maintenance issues that impacted the experience. While the staff was courteous, response times were challenging when problems arose. The most significant issue occurred on our final night when multiple fire alarms sounded in our unit for an extended period of time while we were traveling with an infant and toddler. Because maintenance was not immediately available on-site, it took quite some time to resolve the situation. I truly believe our experience would have been very different had maintenance personnel been available on the property to respond more quickly to urgent issues. For a resort of this size and caliber, having faster on-site maintenance support would greatly improve the guest experience and help prevent minor issues from becoming major disruptions. Cinnamon Shore has so much potential to provide an exceptional vacation experience, and I hope management continues investing in the operational side of the resort to match the beauty of the property itself.

Longing for surf and sand, we scheduled a long weekend in Port Aransas and found a fantastic house within 5 minutes of the beach. "Villa 4 Rita" is dog friendly and can sleep a total of eight. The setup includes two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the other with twin beds. An open loft sleeps 4 but it has a low ceiling and the stairs are treacherous. Melissa made our trip fantastic.

Not only is there website the most friendly, so are their prices. They never charge hidden fees and they carry mostly mid-range properties. They provide two tabs for dishwasher, a small dish soap, at least two toilet paper rolls, a trash bag, and all of the linens (towels, too). You bring additional of the other if needed - but this is a small price to pay for NO FEES. Getting your key is as easy as stopping by their office (located near the ferry landing). If you arrive after 4pm, there's a drop box and you can pay on your way out. You must put down 1 night deposit (you can use credit card online) and pay full amount when you arrive, but they only accept checks, money orders and cashiers checks up to 2 weeks prior to your stay. Upon arrival you can pay with credit card (although it's very courteous to pay with debit) or cashier's check. We once had several houses booked for a large party so I made sure to bring a cashier's check to avoid the fees. There are very few properties I've not completely loved in the last 5 years of booking with them. If you want an honest opinion about a property - hit me up and I will let you know. TIP: Hang on to your keys - only fees are for lost keys!
