Great property. Unfortunately, no carts available for rent on site. Property is larger and maneuvering a full-size truck is possible but not ideal. Pool could certainly have been ready to serve upon opening versus opening and then getting the bar set up. I would advise maybe having setup occur 30 minutes before opening on Sunday.

Beach weekend

Everything about the house was great. Well stocked for entertaining/cooking. Comfortable beds & couches in the living room. Next to the pool and a short walk to the beach or bar. Only negative was the flickering can lights on the 3rd floor and the fans that only operated on slow. Would definitely rent this property again!

Perfect beach experience

We decided to take a summer beach trip and this place was the easy & perfect decision. The home was extremely clean and NICE! And the fact that it's on a resort you literally do not need to take anything other than your food and beach towels, toys, drinks and a bluetooth speaker. There is a pool with complete bar that was awsome. And we purchased 4 beach chairs with umbrellas for our beach day that were really comfy. And the golf cart rental was awsome too! Overall our time at Port A was amazing!

Never disappoints

For over 50 years my family and I come to and visit Port Aransas and every year it never disappoints. We have stayed at Palmilla a few times but it was a first for this particular home and we were very happy with the spacious room and accommodations. Thank you Vacasa and Poolside Paradise for sharing your home! Until next time!!!

Would never rent again

I liked that the pool was right out back door. If you have small toddlers this is a 3 story and anyone below can hear footsteps that sound like a herd of horses all day.

Beautiful House, beautiful Property

The house is amazing,Kitchen was well stocked. Location is next to pool, Grill, and bar. Property is gorgeous. Elevator was a life saver. The only thing missing was an outdoor grill and sharp knives . I recommend bringing a collapsible wagon to haul stuff up and down the elevator. This is not a place to stay if you can’t traverse stairs. There is no ramp to get in the house and kitchen is on third floor.

Beach Time

The house was great, clean very convenient to the pool and beach. We will stay again in the future. Only issues we had: 1. Lights in the kitchen and loving room would get dim then bright then dim then bright again. 2. The tv's downstairs wouldnt stream movies constantly buffered.

Convenient Location

We had 10 people stay at Poolside Paradise. There was plenty of room. AC worked great, bedroom fan ran a little slow but we brought extra bedside fans that helped. Location is walking distance to pool, guest services and gym. Highly recommend booking a golf cart. You can cruise around the Palmilla Grounds which has 2-pools, a restaurant, coffee truck, and Reds Cabana Bar. There is a golf cart drive way that has access to the beach . We spent most days cruising up and down beach and going into Port Aransas town for food and drinks . You can’t go wrong with any property in Palmilla but Poolside Paradise was 10 out of 10 for our group. We will be back.

Beautiful home, great location

This is a very beautiful home, very comfortable for our group of 10. Location was perfect, right by the pool and not a long walk to the beach. Easy access to guest services, rent golf carts, obtain wrist bands for amenities. Only issues we had really were some of the lights wouldn’t stay on (might be operator error). We also couldn’t turn on the island lights at all and someone is permanently signed into the Netflix accounts so we couldn’t change it. Really none of these things were a big deal and we would definitely stay again!

Palmilla beach house

The house was located right behind the pool! Just step out the back door and you are just a few short steps away from the pool. The house is 3 stories, with the bedrooms located on the first two floors, and main living, dining and kitchen area on the 3rd floor. There is an elevator in the house which was very helpful for us as we were traveling with two seniors who can’t do stairs. There was a few steps on the front porch and the back porch to enter the home, but only a few. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots/pans and cooking utensils. Both a regular coffee pot and kuerig in the kitchen. Loved the fact that each bedroom has its own bathroom. We will definitely keep this particular house in mind for future visits.

Amenities were not available, rat in pool so it was closed the entire stay when the manager stated it would only be 2 hrs. TV in bedroom did not work, lights were flickering on and off in living room. Grill was closed, and some bedsheets were stained but we were provided new ones. Bathroom doors did not lock, and downstairs did not cool with AC on.
