Perfect place to stay!
This condo was the perfect place for our family to stay! Most cozy beds, amazing kitchen, great shower pressure, great living room space!! And the perfect location right next to the walkway to the beach, right next to the tennis and pickleball courts and pool! We can’t wait to find an excuse to come down to Port Aransas just to come stay there again!
