Nichole, Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you had a great stay at Linda Vista and that everything met your expectations. We strive to make the check-in and check-out process as smooth as possible, so it’s wonderful to know that it worked well for you. We can’t wait to welcome you back in the future!
It was so clean and with an open floor plan. There’s not any houses behind you to give you a little bit of privacy. The kitchen had everything we needed and the pool was amazing! We’ll definitely book this house again!

Great stay. Thought of everything including a baby gate for the stairs. The king bedroom upstairs is just very tall but they provide a step stool.

Pool was a life saver. Tons of seaweed at the beach. House was amazing and everyone was easy to work with. We will be coming back for sure. Thank you!

So glad you enjoyed the pool and the home! Love hearing that you are coming back we look forward to hosting your next beach vacation to Port Aransas, hopefully there is less seaweed next time! Thanks for staying with us.
This home is absolutely stunning!!! The private pool and game room made our stay with the kids extra enjoyable. The numerous balconies allowed for adult time while still being able to watch over the kids in the pool below. The bay view with a nice cup of coffee in the morning was beautiful and I prefer being on the bay vs the beach because there is a lot less sand to contend with.

This home was perfect for us. Plenty of room, comfortable furniture and lots of outdoor sitting areas. We loved the pool and game room. I have been looking for a house to rent for a long time and feel that I have finally found the perfect place! The property was clean a well-maintained. Great customer service. A short drive to the beach and on a quiet street.

If you have older family members This is not the house for you the stairs are tooo much and my 8 year old slipped down the stairs coming from the pool
Modern and clean, location would not be my first choice but it wasn't the end of the world. Please be aware you can book direct with the owners and avoid the scandalous fees. We had to pay nearly 150 bucks for credit card processing. Ridiculous

Our family of 5 + grandparents thoroughly enjoyed staying at this house. Everything was new and fresh. Easy check-in and out. Nice views of the canal and preserve. The pool was fantastic especially since the beach had tar balls on it :( We ended up just chilling at the house instead of returning to the beach, which was a short drive r 25 minute walk away. Great wifi for a work call, too. They had plenty of toilet paper, but only a small container of dishwashing liquid and a couple of dishwasher tablets. Would highly recommend!

We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay! This is such a great vacation home. We do only supply starter amenities for your stay but we hope this helped you out. Thank you for your review, we hope you come back and stay with us again.
We enjoyed our stay at Linda Vista. The house was beautiful and very clean. One of my cons would be that the beds sit up quiet high. I'm short, 5'2 so I had to literally jump into the bed. Also the bathroom counters were high. The kids couldn't reach the sink to wash hands and brush teeth. I would recommend the owners have a step stool for future families with little ones. The pool was a plus. It was so great to be able to just walk down stairs and jump in the pool when you didn't want to drive to the beach. There is no outdoor shower, instead there is hot/cold faucet to hook up a hose. We ended up using that to wash off our feet and legs as to not track sand inside. I loved that it had a washer/dryer. Coffee was great as well as the cute welcome gift left by New Wave mgmt. The management was nice and quick to respond as well. Another con was the credit card fee was so high. Overall this home was great, beautiful and spacious. My family loved it. We would stay here again.

Reviewer Comments:
January and February stay at this location. We have rented from VRBO numerous times across the USA and the Caribbean. This home rates as one of the nicest we’ve enjoyed. General home: very clean! Comfortable. Good closet space. Kitchen: efficient, most amenities included, dishwasher did not clean very well, however it may have been our detergent choice. Beds: comfortable, nice linens. Baths: good; fluffy towels. Rental Company not at all intrusive but available always if needed. A few negatives: a “desk” type piece of furniture would be helpful located somewhere in the house. An occasional chair(s) on second floor in game room would be good place to sit. I realize we were here during the winter and stayed over eight weeks. Many of my negatives probably aren’t an issue if only staying a week.
Response from VrboOwner on 23 Feb 2024

We're glad to hear that you found the general cleanliness of the home to be excellent and that you found it comfortable with good closet space. It's also great to know that you appreciated the kitchen amenities and the quality of the linens and towels provided.
We apologize for any inconvenience you experienced with the dishwasher not cleaning well. We'll make sure to check on this and ensure it's working optimally for future guests. Regarding your suggestions for improvements such as having a "desk" type piece of furniture and additional seating in the game room, we'll definitely take these into consideration for future enhancements to the property. Thank you for recognizing our rental company's approach of being available but not intrusive. We strive to provide our guests with the support they need while allowing them to enjoy their privacy and relaxation.

We hope you had a wonderful time exploring the area during your stay, and we'd be honored to host you again in the future, whether for a shorter or extended stay. Thank you for choosing our property, and we wish you all the best until we have the pleasure of welcoming you back next winter!

Our family had a fantastic experience at Linda Vista on Port A. The home was in perfect condition with the ideal layout for families. All rooms were clean and the home contained everything we needed for our stay. It was a nice, quiet location that was everything we could have wanted. We loved eating on the deck while watching the sunset and ships. It was a quick ride to the beach or our favorite ice cream stop. We have been to multiple vacation rentals, and this rental was the most organized with the best communication from property management. Even if this home isn't right for your needs; recommend staying with this company.

Linda Vista was perfect for our girls’ trip! The house is very clean, very spacious and cute as can be! The beds are very comfortable, the kitchen is well stocked and the game room is fun!

We loved driving around Port A and shopping in it as well!
