    Nice clean hotel with friendly staff. Resort definitely needs a renovation. But it is convenient…read moreand has lovely views of the harbor. Please rethink the location of the refrigerator, I stubbed my toe multiple times. Also the heating system needs help. Our room was freezing and bumping the thermostat up to 85 continued to blow cold air. I wish I could give this place more than three stars, but the above is my reasoning for my rating, mainly for the awesomeness of the staff and the cleanliness of the resort.

    I recently stayed at South Shore Harbour in League City and had a mixed but mostly positive…read moreexperience. The staff throughout the hotel were very kind, professional, and responded quickly whenever we needed assistance, which really stood out during our stay. The room itself was spacious, and the fitness center was excellent with plenty of equipment and activities available. The pool area was also very nice and relaxing. We ate lunch and dinner at Opus on the property, and both meals were very good. Breakfast had a great variety of options, although the quality of some items was about a 7/10 overall. There were a few maintenance and cleanliness concerns that kept the stay from being exceptional. The balcony was wet and had noticeable algae buildup, and while searching for an outlet behind the bed, I found that area extremely dusty and dirty. There were also water stains on the ceiling, some rust in areas of the room, and surprisingly no towel racks in the bathroom. Overall the room is very outdated. Another inconvenience was parking. Parking availability was poor, and we ended up having to park underground and walk through the rain carrying our bags. Also, only one elevator was working on our side of the hotel, which caused delays. Overall, the hotel has great amenities and excellent staff, but some upkeep and maintenance improvements would make the experience much better.

    I booked my son's 1st birthday party at Just Kidding Play Cafe three months in advance and paid…read morearound $700 for their "Just Show Up" package, which advertised pizza, drinks, snacks, frozen treats, decorations, a party host, full setup, and cleanup. Unfortunately, we did not receive what was promised. From the moment I booked, communication was almost nonexistent. I never received a confirmation email, receipt, or follow-up about the party. A week before the event, I had to call myself just to ask what colors I had selected because there was no way to review my booking details. I was told to email photos, colors, and the "vibe" I wanted for the theme ("Harrison & Co."), which I immediately did. I received no response. Two days before the party, I called again to confirm the owner had received the email, and I was told yes. The day before the party, my mom called because I was nervous about the lack of communication, especially with a unique theme. Gabrielle told us she usually does confirmation calls 72 hours in advance (which we never received) and assured us everything was understood and we could "just show up and enjoy the party." I also dropped off additional decorations the day before, including a banner and photo table pieces of my son. When I originally booked months earlier, I specifically asked what decorations would be included because I wanted to know what I needed to provide myself. I was told the package would include things like a banner, balloon arch, backdrop, table toppers, number balloon, tablecloths, plates, and more within a $140 decoration budget. When we arrived, the room was extremely underwhelming and honestly disappointing. The only banner displayed was the one I brought myself. The only table decorations used were the photos I provided. There was one small basic balloon arch, a number balloon, tablecloths, and plates still sitting in the Family Dollar wrapper instead of set out on the tables. The room looked bare. What made this more disappointing is that the "Just Show Up" parties shown on their social media look nothing like what we received. I had also recently attended my niece's party there and saw firsthand how much more effort, decoration, and detail went into her event compared to ours. There was also no party host throughout the event. My friend passed out pizza, my sister cut and served cake, and my family cleaned the room ourselves. Right as we were almost finished cleaning, Gabrielle walked in and told us we didn't need to clean because she would do it. I chose not to address the decoration issues during the party because I wanted to focus on enjoying my son's first birthday instead of dealing with conflict during the event. At the end of the party, my mom respectfully explained to Gabrielle that while we would still pay in full, we did not receive the services we paid for. There were no frozen treats provided, no host, and the decorations were nowhere near what had been advertised or described to us when booking. Gabrielle repeatedly responded by saying she had a $140 budget and "didn't know what direction she was allowed to go in" because it wasn't a basic Disney theme... despite having three months to contact us for clarification. She also kept reducing our concerns down to "so you wanted more balloons," which completely missed the point. What was most disappointing was the lack of accountability afterward. There was no genuine apology, no offer to make it right, no discount, no complimentary pass, nothing.. despite the fact that several advertised services were not provided. I rarely leave negative reviews, but after paying a premium price for an stress-free "Just Show Up" experience, this was incredibly disappointing. Even more disappointing considering I was a regular customer frequenting at least once a week.. I will never be going back.

We would definitely consider hosting another event there and would recommend it to others. The facility is well set up and can handle its advertised duties, but the real story is the service provided by the staff. The staff and DJ did a great job of accommodating our party. We brought in outside catering, selected our own music, and spent a long time transforming the facility with a different look and feel. In short, we were particular, and the staff worked very well with us and all the parties involved to make it a success. My daughter and I selected music and I built a slideshow. Chris, the DJ (and either the husband of the owner or co-owner, I didn't ask), did a great job of working the music together to make a great program. We selected some music that wasn't traditional for a teeny-boppy party, and he sequenced it beautifully to engage the entire audience - even the grandparents were dancing! We also changed the program slightly during the event and again he kept up very well. If you are bringing in your own music and slideshow, make sure you follow Chris's directions so that you get the results you are looking for. I brought a few different file types of the slideshow in case there were difficulties playing one on their computer, but there weren't . The food and beverage accommodations are good, although we did not prepare food there, nor did we serve alcoholic beverages. We had dining catered by Gina's restaurant of Clear Lake, and they worked well with the Enchanted Gardens staff. We had a few family members arrive after the dinner was cleared, but the staff reheated and served them food. The service we had included sodas, tea, and water. For an additional fee, they served coffee. About the only drawback is that the facility is a little hard to find. We had a few guests that had difficulty finding the place. There are several factors for this; first is its actual location. It is situated in a strip shopping center that doesn't look like it would accommodate an event facility. Secondly, there is not a sign by the road, so finding the exact entrance in the dark was a little challenging. Third, it appears as though some search engines (including google/yelp) appear to show this near FM 517 even though it is near 146 (some 30 minutes the other direction). We learned of this from some very persistent guests. I hope to submit a request to fix this, but I would highly recommend that you include a map to the facility or directions with your invitation.
