Cute condo in a great location!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo looked just like the photos. It was cleaned and well maintained. The property management company was easy to work with and quick to respond. We would definitely stay here again. The pool and grills were right next door so it was the perfect location for us to have a small birthday party. We were there in December and the heated pool was a comfortable temperature during the day.

Great location and lot's of fun

My wife and I took our 4 kids ages 8-18 for a week in June. Very close to the beach, great pool area with slides, and a fun game room. We had so much fun, and would highly recommend to anyone considering this property to go for it! We loved the access from the back patio to Lake Padre and my boys spent hours out there fishing every day.

This place has all you ever need on vacation. Very clean, location is great for quick access to pier fishing and the beach. Loved the ice machine! We didn't have to go get ice once. Lots of kitchen amenities for those that cook on vacation. We will definitely be back.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed this location! It was clean and comfortable. My kids loved the pool. Easy distance to the beach. Views were beautiful. The pool is pretty loud and your balcony is right next to your neighbor without a full divider on the bottom deck. We didn't mind either, but if you are looking for a quiet place this may not be the place for you. Security comes and kicks everyone out of the pool about 1030-11pm.

Reviewer Comments: The location is great, the condo is exactly as pictured and great but:The cooking pots and pans were horrible, there were more scratches in the pans than teflon coating. Unusable.Slight indication of cigarette smoke on arrival. Really noticed the odor in all our clothes when we unpacked. If neither of these bother you then this place is great!

We loved the condo and the canal access for fishing. Its really close to the beach so that was nice. The only negatives were that the furniture in the living space is small and not comfortable. If you actually had a full house, there would not be enough comfty seats for everyone. They also do need to have pest control come. Since this property is pet friendly we also would have loved to have a designated area for the dogs to potty. The grass has stickers which we were picking out of their paws for an hour and the turf is also the picnic area so its a little difficult to manuver.

Frisos Acropolis apartment is truly a luxury apartment, just like the pictures! The view of the Acropolis is second to none. The apartment is spacious, beautifully decorated and clean. The kitchen is fully stocked for cooking whatever you want. The fridge had many items for breakfast and snacks. There is an instruction guide full of information and even some grocery and restaurant recommendations. Communications with Yannis and his associates were excellent. We were greeted promptly upon our arrival and shown around the apartment. It is perfectly located across from the Metro station, next to the Acropolis Museum and easy walking distance to shops, restaurants, and of course, the Acropolis. We highly recommend this beautiful apartment!

This is an end unit, right next to the pool. Unit is very nice. 3 bedrooms upstairs. 3 bathrooms, living room & kitchen. Well stocked kitchen. The whole complex is investment property so it either really busy during certain times or empty like it was for us. Love this location.

I was bitten by something while sleeping. I didn't receive the code to the pool in my email. The only way I got the code was showing a email to the resident that I was staying there. Besides that it was ok.

4 night stay. The last night the home flooded from a bad plumbing repair the third day. We were up all night moping and drying out our things. Rushed out the final day with a 1 hour late check out after getting 2-3 hours of sleep. Long story short customer service is not good. We would have appreciated being able to sleep in a bit more (went to sleep at 4:30 am), and possibly a comp stay for this vacation being ruined from their flood.
