Perfect beach stay for a family!

This location is excellent as it has a boardwalk right to the beach, situated right downtown, really nice interior, and great amenities at your fingertips (pool, game room, and park!!!)

Great location in a great complex

This condo was perfect for a beach get away. It was cozy and clean, plenty of room for 4 people. The walk to the beach was super short and the access to the pool even easier.

One of my favorite spots

The home is clean and well maintained. We enjoyed the short walk to the beach and using the clean, warm pool at the end of the day. We’ve stayed here twice and look forward to coming again!

Perfect Beach Location

The location for beach access is perfect. Very close to town also. The unit is nicely furnished and comfortable. I loved sitting on the porch. The kitchen supplies need some work: not enough silverware, no cutting board, no dish rack. Good pots and pans, lots of place settings and glassware.

Beautiful property, and close to the beach

I loved this property. Everything was magical except that I ended up losing my car keys so I had to have my other set over nighted. So we weren’t able to experience Port Aransas properly. Otherwise, my nieces LOVED EVERYTHING. The pool was exceptional, and everything was wonderful.

Great location

Property offers several amenities for families (game room, pool, playground and a safe short walking distance to beach). Lack of household items needs to be more emphasized. Bring your own dish towels, paper towels and extra TP or else you might have buy your own.

Beachhead

The only complaint we had was there was no Elevator and 3 flights of steps was horrendous with all the stuff we had. So first day was exhausting but the pool made it all better Last day we lowered all non breakables off the balcony in trash bags made it so much better. Good stay

Gorgeous View!

Nice, quiet family oriented complex. Very nice pool area. Grills were easily available. We were there on July 4th & we were able to see the fireworks from our boardwalk. We had 3 adults & 3 teens. Everyone slept comfortably in the unit. We cooked most of our meals there & had what we needed. The view from the balcony is amazing! You will get your exercise on the stairs, but you really can’t go wrong with this unit or complex.

Weekend Getaway

The location is clean and well kept. We had a little trouble getting in our condo initially due to not realizing we had to manually turn the deadbolt not the door handle in order to open the door after entering the code. Our call of despair on the matter was answered very quickly. 😅 The AC in this condo worked very well! Our view from the balcony was so nice and The boardwalk to the beach was very convenient.

Great Location

Check in was easy and communication with management was good. The location is fabulous and it’s a three minute walk to the beach. Balcony views were lovely and it was pretty quiet. We stayed during the week so it wasn’t crowded. Coffeepot could be replaced and I didn’t find a dish rack but these are minor issues. I understand the units are older so if you want to be able to run the a/c under 72, you might reconsider. I believe it’s a little overpriced for this unit but might consider staying again. Overall a good experience.

Close to great

We really enjoy the location and site of this stay! Easy access to the beach, beautiful view of the ocean from balcony and pool, and fun game room! However, the unit itself has a few disappointments. There is a strong smell of mold and we believed to see mold inside the trash cupboard. The toilets barely flushed and there aren’t adequate plungers available in the unit. The smart/touch kitchen sink faucet batteries died and we had to disengage the mechanism to get water and we never heard back from property management on getting it fixed. Limited paper goods available for longer than a couple days of a stay.

Thank you for your feedback! We’re so glad you enjoyed the location, ocean view, pool, and game room, those are definitely some of the highlights of this home. It’s a great spot to relax and unwind! We’re sorry to hear there were a few issues during your stay. We take concerns about odors and cleanliness very seriously and will have our team inspect the trash cupboard right away. We’ll also check on the toilets and ensure each unit is properly stocked with plungers. Regarding the kitchen faucet, we did receive your report and responded within 24 hours. We were informed that your husband was able to disengage the touch sensor and that everything was working fine after that, and no further assistance was needed. Thank you for updating us at the time. In terms of supplies, we do provide a starter set of paper goods and basic essentials for the first day or two. To ensure full transparency prior to booking, these details are listed in the property description and also reiterated in the check-in instructions sent the day before arrival. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, it helps us improve both the property and our communication. We’d love the opportunity to host you again for an even better stay. Thanks again!

needs updating

This propery is in need of updating. The microwave handle was broken. The air vents had mold. The bathroom floor tiles were loose and had cracks. The mattresses were old and sagged towards the middle. Make sure you take toilet paper, paper towels, and trashbags. They will only leave 1 of each item. The best part of this propery was the location.
