Great Family Vacation Spot

We loved it here. Children ages 2-7. Right by pool. Close to beach=WIN! The only problem I had was: they said I had to get physical key. Turned out, I just needed code. We will be back!

Thank you for your feedback! We're delighted you and your children enjoyed the location near the pool and beach. Apologies for the confusion about the key—glad it got sorted out. We look forward to welcoming you back!

Pirates Bay Vacation Rental 2023

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our first Condo rental with Starkey Property. We have been renting house with Starkey for several years. The place was clean but a bit noisy sometime and reserve parking is conflicting with other renter.
Response from VrboOwner on 9 Dec 2023
Hi Vincent! I am so happy to hear that you continue to use Starkey for your vacation needs! Pirate's Bay is a growing community much like most of Port Aransas and parking can be limited at times. I hope that despite these frustrations, you and your family had a wonderful vacation with lots of memories made. Please come back and see us!

Great Location

The condo had plenty of room for a large party for sure and Great Location right across the highway from the beach!Check-in was not ideal had to wait 20 minutes to tell me to head to the location. The A/C unit was not cooling someone finally came and kind of fixed it but it took til 11:30 that night and was still a little stuffy the whole time but did bring fans but still was not ideal. I'm sure they tried their best and management even brought charcoal and lighter fluid which was really nice.

Thank you, Pam! We're glad to hear that the condo had plenty of space for your group and that you enjoyed the great location by the beach. We apologize for the delays during check-in and any issues with the A/C. We appreciate your understanding and are glad the fans helped. Thank you for recognizing our team's efforts to make your stay more comfortable. We hope to welcome you back in the future!

Family Beach Trip

The place was nice and clean. We enjoyed the very easy access to the pool. Little hiccup on the check-in. I was instructed to go to their office a few miles away to pick up a key but no one answered the door. I called and was then given the code for the front door. The parking is limited. (2 vehicles) A normal size vehicle can fit in the garage. Extra parking spots are available but are very limited and are first come first serve. Overall, the house is a nice stay for a family trip to the beach.

Friends reunion

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: Great place to stay for a big multi family group. Plenty of kitchenware provided and a newer working fridge with ice maker. Plenty of room in living room for gathering. Very close pool access. The only draw back was hdmi cable in living room was bad so could watch tv. Master bed a little hard for my liking, pool has built in hot tub that was heated but water level was above the partition wall so pool water was even hotter than a normal midsummer pool temp.

Summer of 2021 Port A Visit

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 had a great experience, the owners were very gracious had left a myriad of activities for the kids, the condo fit our families extremely nicely, very clean, stocked with cooking supplies and a great location with the pool area.The washing machine attempted to walk out of its space...which was reported to the service company :)The only concern we had was the unit next to us...which should of been relatively the same size as ours and they were way over the limit as to the # of one time when we were in the pool, approximately 25-30 people in the pool were associated with the one unit. I realize the management has no way of knowing this in advance but perhaps the name it was rented to can be on a list to not be excluded from future rentals.BTW this was our 1st time to stay on that side of 361 and it was not an issue at all.thanks, we will return!!

Great Family Fun

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: We had a wonderful time at the beach house. All in all a beautiful and well appointed house. There were a couple of things we noticed. The internet was slow and spotty, it worked best when you were right next to the router. the lock to the shared bathroom did not work. (we hung a scrunchie when occupied :)) Also, front door handle kept coming off. We would totally stay there again!

Wonderful time as always staying with Starkey Property Management

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: Our annual employee trip and this year we had 22 people. The folks at Starkey Property Management put us in a house that worked as our base place for dinners and other accomidations at the Balanise, which was awesome. Every year, no matter the size of our group, we are taken care of. Why even look at the rest when you can stay with the best.
