"The place was very clean. Check in was easy. We even got to see a deer right in the back yard and found an arrowhead at the beach. The guy from 2024 that said there were roaches is full of prunes. Zero issues with bugs. Except mosquitoes. They are massive, but slow. They are not inside until you open the door. Kill them quickly and you will be fine. We will rent from Matt again in the future."

Beachfront Condo at Matagorda Dunes with Pool Access

10/10 Excellent

"Awesome, quick getaway with the family. The host is very, very responsive. The pool area is amazing. Its a salt water pool and the water was a perfect temperature. Super refreshing! I met the property manager there, he was friendly, had great recommendations and area insights. There are semi hidden path ways to walk to the beach but the beach is only a 3 drive (if that) from the condo. We chose to drive and you can drive on the beach. 4 wheel drive is almost necessary but there is an area by the beach entrance you can park at and walk in if you are worried about getting stuck. The condo itself is very well equipped, clean and cozy. Great views from the deck! I highly recommend this location as the place itself and host are great. Looking forward to a return trip soon!"

"After walking up the stairs and opening the door of the Matagorda Pearl we were pleasantly surprised by the absolutely beautiful, modern, spacious and spotlessly clean house. Our host, Ryan, was incredibly kind and quick to respond from the moment we booked the property through the day we left. As advertised the house was within minutes to the beach and the refreshing pool was a short walk away. Our family loved staying here."
