Summer Getaway

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 rental home fit the bill for us perfectly on spacing and rooms (albeit pictures showed two sets of bunk beds and in reality there were the top twins and a single full below in one room). The number of bathrooms was beyond convenient after a day at the beach/pool and we never ran out of hot water! The home was warm, comfortable and very conveniently located with lake front fishing out the back door and community activities/restaurants a short walk away. We cooked our meals on their grill andin the kitchen which had every tool and dish we could need.Property management was fabulous at checking to make sure every detail was attended to from optimal AC in the unit, to prompt responses to questions and text reminders for schedules. Remember to bring some extra toiletries for longer stays.We will definitely plan another vacation to Cinnamom Shores and would love to return to The Veranda!

Cinnamon shores

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have come to cinnamon shores for years. This recent stay the house was good, issues with toilet and dryer but otherwise we loved the house. We were not happy at all with the decline in service from cinnamon shores...the staff were polite but really couldnt help. The restaraunts have really gone downhill in service and quality. There wasnt the usual live music on weekends at the circle. Just really disappointed and will look for elsewhere to stay in future.

Amazing 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: We stayed Tuesday through Sunday mid-July a The Veranda in Cinnamon Shores North. The amenities in this community cannot be beat. We had beach chair set up daily and rented the golf carts from Sage, which is on site. We received daily messages and check-in to ensure everything was going well and we did not have any needs. The house itself was an absolute dream, and I loved the style and decor. It was perfect for our family for, very roomy and could easily fit a set of grandparents or a few more people. We especially loved the extra sitting room upfront and the master bathroom jet bathtub! The wraparound upstairs porch was perfect for morning coffee or evening cocktails. Backing up to the lake made it especially private and quiet. I would absolutely stay here again.

Always a good time at Cinnamon Shore!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a beautiful, comfortable home in a great location! We had 4 adults and 2 children and it was more than adequate. This home is on the lake, so we were able to do some fishing off the back porch. A couple of drawbacks: 2nd master had a slow draining sink, which was “fixed,” but continued to drain slowly. Only 1 burner on the stove worked. The toaster oven would bake, but not toast, the utensils are limited and need replacing. But it’s nice to have the outside hose, and be on the lake. I do recommend this home, just mentioning the downsides so the owners are alerted.

Great location

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: Location was awesome! Right on the pond for backyard fishing or enjoying your coffee with a view.Beds are very comfortable and each bedroom had it's own bathroom which was nice. Home is well decorated but not very kid friendly due to all the tabletop decor.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our fourth stay and we’ll be back. Perfect for our family with young kids. The porches are enjoyed by the whole family and are ideal spots to puzzle during naptime or enjoy a glass of wine after putting kids down for bed. We love this sweet retreat.

Paradise!

What a great locations! Far enough from home to feel like a vacation but close enough for the drive. Amazing hospitality from the entire neighborhood! The beach was perfect. 3 days was only a tease. I seriously recommend a longer stay to fully enjoy this amazing paradise!

Family escape on Lake Colby

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We shared this rental with another family and had a wonderful few days at Cinnamon Shores. The place is well equipped with everything you need, and the location on Lake Colby is superb! It is a bit older than some of the other Cinnamon Shore properties, but you really can’t beat the verandas and set up.

Great stay!

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 rented The Veranda 141 in June 2020. It is a perfect fit for 2 families. 2 large master bedrooms and a great bunk room, each with their own bath. The front living room downstairs has a murphy bed that is great for an older child. The best feature however is the location on Colby lake. You can walk out the back door and the lake is 10' from the porch. Perfect for breezes and a nice view. It faces east so the back yard/porch is shaded in the afternoon. We will look for the Veranda again on our next trip to CS.

We come to CS 2 to 3 times a summer.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Fishing real close. Enjoyed our stay. Microwave needs to be replaced ASAP. The cs staff brought a temp quickly. Requested someone to make the living room remote to work no one ever came so that was a little tough for 5 nights with 7 kids ! But TVs in other rooms just not working in the gathering room the right way. We would stay there again.

Perfect porches and comfy interior

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My husband, 20 month old and I stayed here. I spent every evening out on the wrap-around porches. There were always several tiny tree frogs, which was so much fun to see. The location on lake Colby is perfect. Everything was clean, comfortable and well thought out. This is our second visit to cinnamon shores. The first housevwe stayed in was fine, but and I would definitely stay at The Veranda again. You just can’t beat the porches.

nice house but not sure the "resort" is worth it.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I really liked the Veranda. Much more comfortable than Southern Charm. After years of staying in dated junky places close to town or right on the beach, We got excited about the amenities and up to date houses at CS ad we have stayed here the past three or trips. I think I'm going back. The resort is just not that nice. We had a hard time getting chairs and umbrellas and then an umbrella came out of the sand and concussed my wife. Very little in the way of apologies from the management. And while the pool service is a great amenity, the food is not great. I think the menu is fine, its just not good quality and it costs a ton, like everything else. Also too much motarized traffic. It seems like every person has their own golf cart wizzing around the place with little regard for pedestrians. Lastly it just doesn't feel like Port Aransas. Pseudofancy with non of the redneck charm of Port A. If it was actually nice, I think that would be fine but it's just not that nice.

Very Disapointing!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. 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 do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: BEWARE! Verify Bed Count before staying! We have stayed at CInnamon Shores 9 times in the past few years. This stay was very disappointing!!! We booked The Veranda after wanting to stay there for 2 years. It CLEARLY states that is easily fits 12 people. The internet states the downstairs EASILY sleeps 4 people. When we arrived there was NO foldout sofa like stated. It only slept 10. The most disappointing part was how uncaring the office staff was. THey basically said they couldn’t help that the description was wrong and there was NOTHTING they would do to fix the situation. They would not refund ANY part of the money that was paid for 12 beds. They would NOT put our 2 adults that was without a bed in another condo. THey would NOT put us in another house that held 12. All this after we paid for a home that they told us slept 12, we received zero assistance and only a very RUDE office lady. We called the office multiple times and they never had any type of solution. We told them we had adults not children, and we couldn’t put our 2 adults on the sofa that didn’t pull out. When the maintenance manager came to check and verify the couch did not pull out, because the office didn’t believe me when I called, he told us that the office was rude and he felt so bad that they were not willing to do anything to help us. They wouldn’t even return our calls. We were stuck with 2 adults on a blow up mattress after paying $6000,00 for this stay. The office called the owner who told them they had in fact taken the fold out couch out a “while back” and they needed the office to update their website. For as much money as this vacation resort charges, they need to know how many people can actually sleep in their homes. Cinnamon SHore is a great place that we Love. Please get some customer service skills and caring front desk workers. THey are only helpful at taking your money, not fixing any issues!!

Beautiful Escape

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Veranda is a beautiful home with a great location w/in CS. It backs up to one of the lakes, so you've got a great view right off the back porch. We traveled with our 3 & 5yr olds & met friends w/their 1, 3, & 5yr olds. The bunk room was perfect for the 4 girls and the rental office was great at providing baby gates and a high chair prior to our arrival.Pools were nice and clean, golf carts worked well (you will definitely need one if you have kids with you as this house is not super close to the beach), beds were comfortable, and the whole community is just beautiful! The home was clean and mostly stocked with what we needed (dish soap, detergent, shampoo, soap, toilet paper). It would have been nice to have basic pantry staples stocked as well (seasonings, condiments, etc) but we made do just fine. My only other small complaints would be that the towels were small and thin (when you pay a premium price, you want premium quality), the grill broke our second or third day there and they didn't fix it until the day we were leaving, and we paid for 2 days of umbrella and chair service and the 2nd day they forgot us, so we had to wait to have them set up for us, and at that point, the beach was so full that we were set up WAY down the beach where it wasn't raked - we had to deal with all the junk that washes up in the sand instead of the nice, clean, raked part of the beach where everyone else was. Kind of annoying to pay for something and not get what we were expecting. I will say, of all of our meals, my favorite was the one we cooked at home (when the grill was working). Lisabella's was overpriced in my opinion and the options in town are not great (whataburger was probably the second best meal we had if that tells you anything). We had planned on the movies & smores nights but it rained both nights they were offered so we weren't able to enjoy that. All in all, we had a great trip and will be back!

the Veranda

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The beach was fantastic and the access superb. The house and the service of the leading company left much to be desired. Left messages with questions and concerns but received no follow up. The home and especially the furnishings were filthy. Had concerns with overall cleanliness from the moment we saw the trash filled outdoor shower...and the home and furniture were in equally disgusting shape.
