We were looking for a vacation rental with at least 4 bedrooms and this was an excellent choice! The GPS had a hard time locating it but after we arrived we knew exactly where to go. It's not far from the main street. We had plenty of space and the kids loved the pool area!

This home is beautiful, with lots of space and great kitchen with all the things needed to cook meals including a coffee pot. Very nice bedrooms with plenty of beds and seating for big groups!! The house was nice & clean when we arrived. We had an issue with No Electricity in 3 of the downstairs rooms. However, after a quick phone call with customer service, this issue was fixed in a jiffy!!! The pool area was fabulous with a kids splash pad which was great!! Nice little back patio. Short drive to stores and to Port Aransas beach. Would definitely stay here again!!! Thank you.

Padre escapes was a nice place to stay overall. The biggest concerns were amenities and property management. Before arrival you are asked to complete paperwork for your stay. It asks you what time you expect to arrive for possible early arrival.i feel none of that paperwork is reviewed before hand. The number listed on the Airbnb did not answer before our stay, I wanted to ask if there was a coffee maker and confirm possible early check in. Once able to check in on our first day (4:20pm) the pots, pans and kitchen amenities were broken and dangerous for kids. There needs to be upgrades to allow for kitchen space in the pantry (possible a shelf or door hanger). If I am to overlook these details I can say the place was clean and comfortable overall. Our stay was nice but I cannot say if I will be going back.

Very nice & comfortable experience.

the layout was accurate but for the pool area it show the pool right back behind the patio which that wawas not our units the kitchen was not up to date with untenil some of the bowls were dirty under the cabinet need more cabinet space didn't have anywhere to store our groceries, the washer and dryer was broken we had to us the 2nd unit washer and dryer
- Gloria C. , Posted: 09/27/2019
Thank you for the feedback, we apologize for these inconveniences but the pool is not directly behind the property. Not sure where that impression came from but it is certainly not directly behind the unit, it is a communal pool that is located about 125ft away. The washer and dryer was down for your stay but has since been repaired and we will be sure to double check the dishware.

The house did have 5 bedrooms with comfortable beds so plenty of room for our group. The pool was nice. However, would note this condo comes up under a search for Port Aranasas and it is acrually on North Padre Island about 20 miles away form Port A. There was also a slightly musty odor when we entered the condo that was tolerable after using some room spray. I suspect it was due to the older couch which probably needs to be replaced as it caused a few in our group to suffer allergy symptoms. The Kitchen was small but very funtional with plenty of cookware and utensils available. It would be a great option for those wishing to stay closer to Corpus Christi if they replace the couch.
- Anonymous , Posted: 09/04/2019
That is an Airbnb issue. We've let them know that it maps us incorrectly but as of now nothing has been done about it. We're working with the owner on replacing the couch. Thank you for the feedback.

The house was big enough to accommodate all 16 of us without a problem. The amenities were very nice and the location was perfect.
- Leon F. , Posted: 08/07/2019
We enjoyed our stay at the beach. Next year we will need to look for a larger condo with more bedrooms. Our grandchildren are getting older and need more space. I feel this condo needs a good cleaning.
- Molly Z. from San Antonio, Posted: 07/21/2019
Thank you for the feedback, cleaning will be addressed.

This space is incredible for a large group! we had 14 people in our Group and we all fit comfortably. We would definitely go again! If your group is going to be using the kitchen often, take a large pot and an electric skillet, but other than that they had EVERYTHING!
- Crystal W. from Santa Clara , Posted: 07/07/2019
We had a great time at the beach! The townhouse was spacious- we didn't feel like we were sleeping on top of each other, which is always a concern when you have 15 people! The AC was broken the first night but they were able to fix it for the 2nd night. The property management was always super nice, checking in with our stay. Would rent again!
- Angie O. , Posted: 07/02/2019
Thank you for the feedback, we apologize for the AC issues but glad to hear we were able to address it promptly.

We had a great stay and everything we needed was readily available! Check-in and Check-out were a breeze. Location is nice, and the pool was some great fun for the kids!
- Jeremy T. from Corpus Christi, Posted: 06/24/2019
Overall excellent townhome! Property management makes everything very easy from booking to the stay. App is user friendly and has all the information you need. This is our second year staying at Nemo Cay, we rented 3 homes to accommodate our large family and we love the area (very close proximity to beach) and the pool. Looking forward to next year.

it was awesome
- XUQIANG N. from SAN ANTONIO, Posted: 01/02/2018
The rental was nice and clean. The only issues were the upstairs halfway bathroom. The toilet didn't flush well and the tub had very slow drainage. Also, the water heaters used for three unit didn't keep the water hot. But, everything else was great!
- Tiffany C. from Houston, Posted: 12/29/2017
Thank you for the feedback, we've got plumbers investigating the issues you pointed out. We'll get them addressed. We look forward to having you back again soon.

Very clean beautiful home. Lots of space.
The only recommendations would be to include pillow cases for the extra pillows in the closets and possibly provide a blower dryer in one of the bathrooms. Everything was great. I will return for more customer trips and even with my family! I loved the text reminders, ease of checking out and the app.

This was the first time at Nemo Cay and we were very disappointed with our Condo. The rug in the living room was full of ants. We called the front office, and after being hung up on, we called again and had the rug removed. While we were sweeping up ants we moved the sofas and it was a filthy mess underneath with dirty socks, water bottles and trash that obviously showed this condo doesn't get properly cleaned. We complained and maintenance came with Raid (nobody ever came to clean) and unfortunately had to keep my 1yr old off the floor away from the ants and bug spray. The smell was horrible which added to our disgust.After complaining the office said they would contact management and we would hear from someone on Friday. Sadly we never got a call from anyone. After the Raid didn't help, maintenance came back out with a Ortho Home Defense bottle and sprayed the entire condo which still did not help. Saturday we were still sweeping away and killing ants from the dining area, living room, bedrooms and bathrooms. We were really looking forward to our family vacation and it ended up being a huge headache having to make sure we as adults didn't get bit (which we all did) but more importantly protecting the kids from also getting bitten. The kids were miserable not being able to walk around freely because of bug sprays and ants everywhere. When the Property management recommended this place to book they mentioned that it was only 4 years old. This property is in bad shape for it being only 4 years old. There is mold on the bathroom ceiling, masking tape on the stairs, none of the remotes worked when we arrived. All the table placemats and decor were so filthy with dust that we removed them from the table and cleaned the table top thoroughly before any of us ate on it. I think that condo got a better cleaning with us sweeping, dusting and mopping than it has ever been cleaned by management. Sad/Mad to have spent a majority of our vacay cleaning and fighting ants!!!
- Debra L. from San Antonio, Posted: 08/09/2017
First, the place is a lot bigger than the pictures make it seem. A family of 11 and never felt crowded. Great location near beach and away from the city.
The only down side is that I felt this unit needed a little tlc. The step guards on the stair case were coming unglued. Screws in on the table and chairs need to be tightened. And there was an ant problem, not sugar ants. The kind that ruin a good picnic. The management company was quick to resolve the issue, but a little pre-care beyond the maid service could make this place a real winner.
- Anonymous from Cypress, Posted: 07/19/2017
The townhome was very nice and spacious. They had everything we needed for the whole weekend. The kids loved the pool area and I loved that it had enough seating area for the adults to sit and watch the kids comfortably. Would definitely recommend to anyone coming to the area and plan on staying again next year.
- Valerie V. from Odessa, Posted: 07/12/2017
We were very disappointed with the cleanliness and location of this property. We did enjoy the pool, however it was a long walk from the property and the beach was no where close. Washer leaked, doors were squeaky and hard to open and close. Floors were extremely dirty. Would not want to stay there again!
- Anonymous from Brandon, Posted: 06/18/2017
We're certainly disappointed to hear your concerns. We would've been more than happy to address them during your stay. We have a very high standard for our cleanings and this is certainly disappointing. We will work to do better and we do appreciate your feedback.

We took our 3 kids to visit our family in Corpus Christi, TX. It was a little farther that what first appeared on the listing, but still a close drive away. We were pleasantly surprised to be on Island where things were more relaxed and calm. We were only a mile from the beach and the nice November weather meant we were able to enjoy the beach, pool and playground here and there. The kitchen had most things you might need, but there were a few things that would have made the stay even better: coffee filters, broom or mop and a laundry basket. Overall a lovely stay - hope to make it back at some point.

Thanks for letting us know about the missing items, we'll get them restocked.

AWSOME!!!

We had a wonderful time staying at the Nemo Cay Resort. Our place was very clean and beautiful. Such a relaxing and great location. Close to the beach and many other area attractions.
- Adam D. from Manhatten, Posted: 08/08/2016
the family loved the place will probably come back next year
- Cathy L. from Ferris, Posted: 07/29/2016
Our stay was very nice. Swimming pool was great. The only thing I would say is how messy non residents left the pool. Cigarette buds, glass beer bottles laying around, and bottle caps.
- Anonymous from Elk Ridge, Posted: 07/16/2016
Thank you for the feedback on the pool. We will pass it along to the HOA.

Wonderful place to stay. Our family had a great time together with plenty of space and amenities.
- Minnie C. from San antonio, Posted: 07/09/2016
The property was as described. The property was very clean.The patio could use some attention. Weeds need to be cut. Other than that my family was very impressed with the property and enjoyed all of the amenities

Fire alarm that chirped the first night we were there. Shower that leaked into the kitchen below, parking violation not enforced.
- Rick G. from Lafayette, Posted: 11/30/2015
We're sorry to hear your stay was so disappointing. Unfortunately fire alarm batteries can go out from time to time but I know we were there within half an hour (at 10:30pm at night) to address it. Unfortunately the leak has been an issue we've had a hard time tracking down but we are currently in the process of getting it fixed. Unfortunately parking is an issue at every complex from time to time. We do our best to address these issues as they come up. We apologize for these inconveniences but we do appreciate your feedback and hope to see you back again soon.

We had great time . We love our vacation rental home. very clean and nice. We will definitely stay next year too
- Rachel T. from Dallas, Posted: 09/10/2015
We had a wonderful stay! Very clean and quiet - we never once heard our neighbors! We would definitely stay again if we return to Corpus Christi!
- Anonymous from Chandler, Posted: 08/26/2015
New and in great condition. Very spacious (given that it has 5 bedrooms). It came fully stocked to accommodate our stay. The only two bad things about it are, one, it doesn't have a great view of anything, and two, it is not located near any notable restaurants or stores. You will need to drive back over the big bridge to get to any of these. The beach is about a 5 minutes drive away, as well as the half finished Schlitterbahn. I would say, these are the only two attractions nearest to this home.
- Anonymous from RICHMOND, Posted: 08/22/2015
This 5 BR, 4 bath unit fit the bill for our family get-together. It was a short drive to the beach, Schlitterbahn and Bob Hall Pier. The only negative is limited parking if you have more than 2 cars; guest parking is scarce so you must park on the street. The swimming pool area is very nice. Would definitely stay here again; property mgmt people were very accommodating.
- Janice H. from Austin, Posted: 08/05/2015
Place was nice. Service from rental office sucked, they argued with over a broom like I stole them **** thing. Just wanted a broom to sweep the sand up. They charged me a fee plus postage just to send a ring back we left there, really after spending 3 grand you can't send me a ring back without fees.... Not to mention it took several calls to get it back dur to the incompetence of the staff and losing the info where to send it. It's been several weeks and still no ring. My advice don't leave anything behind. Also each room has a smart tv.. Wireless would not reach so only TVs with cable worked which was 2 out of 5.
- Anonymous from Lone Oak , Posted: 06/29/2015
I sincerely apologize for the inconveniences you experienced during your stay. You are 100% correct there was a significant level of incompetence displayed by our staff that we are not proud of. Upon learning of the incompetence we had in handling the situation we did not charge you a service fee nor did we charge you for the shipping. I will e-mail you tracking info for your ring. I also advise guest not to leave anything behind. This is the first I'm hearing off issues with the TV's, we will certainly look into. Thank you for the feedback, we will use it to improve our services for future guests.

- Eliasar M. from Houston, Posted: 04/21/2015
It was great, the place we rented was very nice and convenient to the beach for us. I wish we had gotten a bigger one but we managed with what we got. All the warms were nice and we loved the fleece blankets that were in the closets. The 2 master bedrooms were really nice and the yellow, gray, and white bed sheets in one of the rooms were nice, i really wanted to take them home with me.
