Beautiful and Comfy Space!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We absolutely loved the Big Kahuna! The space was roomy enough for our family plus two, and was just as bright and welcoming as ever. The kitchen is large, with all the cooking items you need to make or bake a family meal. Full size fridge fit everything under the sun, and the ice and water maker is perfectly filtered. The courtyard playground and pool are lovely with a dump bucket that fills with water and dumps into the pool - so fun! Pool was heated during our little chilly stay and was cozy enough for extended play time. We couldn’t have landed in a better spot for our break with our family. Thank you, Padre Escapes! CUTE SPACE AND PROPERTY!
