We didn’t want to leave !

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 had such a wonderful stay ! The property description was accurate and we arrived to a clean well maintained place. We traveled with our 3 year old and 18 month old and this was the perfect place to stay! Walking right out the door to the pirate playground and swimming pool made for lots of fun. We also made the 5 min walk down to the beach a handful of times and it was the perfect location for some sandy fun. The place was well stocked in the kitchen and even had an air fryer which we loved! My 3 year old cried when we left saying “I love it here. I don’t want vacation to end!” We will definitely be back!

Our new go-to vacation spot!

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: This was our second time staying at Smuggler’s Cove, and we absolutely love it! The location of Beachy Keen is walking distance to the beach for my older kids to fish, but gives my little one a fun play area right outside our front door. The house fits my large family perfectly and everything you need for cooking meals is readily available. Very clean and well kept townhouse and grounds.

GREAT WEEK!

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: My family and I came out last year with our 3 kids and just loved it. My wife and I said it would be fun to make it a tradition and go every year with our kids. This past weeks trip was just as fun and our 3 kids had a blast! Beach is close and always nice to get home and get right in the pool. Yes! We will be doing all again next year.

We will definitely be staying here agin. Highly recommend Smugglers Cove - Beachy Keen.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
It was rainy and cloudy most of the time we were here, but it was still a great beach vacation because we were staying in a cute beach cottage! I was so grateful for that! The cottage was super cute and very clean! The pool and area directly around the cottage is very cute and fun! Feels like a beach resort. The rental agency was very pleasant to work with and contributed positively to our vacation time … no stress!!! Very important for a relaxing vacation. Thank you Padre Escapes!

Great place for kids

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: Overall our stay was great. The location was close to the beach and there were lots of extras in the house for the kiddos! We did find a couple of used, dirty washcloths left in the bathrooms when we arrived. Also..... I was shocked to find out we had to put the sheets on the top bunk bed ourselves.
