About this property

Affordable Efficiency (717E)--In-Town, Easy Beach Access, and Pet-Friendly!

Welcome to Below Deck! This bright and colorful efficiency unit is tucked away in a quiet area, but is within walking distance of shops, restaurants, and everything that Port A has to offer. The beach is only a few blocks down Avenue G and is perfect for a quick beach getaway or fishing trip. It has a queen bed and a private bathroom with a tub/shower combination. There is a small refrigerator, microwave, and coffee maker for your convenience. A wi-fi enabled smart television to stream your subscription programming and wireless internet are included with your stay.

Outside, you'll find a small patio for enjoying the gulf breezes and a fenced SHARED yard that is shared by the complex for your four-legged friends to use. We've just added a shared breezeway for the complex with covered seating and a game area. It's a perfect place to unwind after a day at the beach.

There is one parking space for this condo. Any additional cars, boats or trailers will need to be parked on the street.

There is not a washer/dryer in the unit, so please plan accordingly.

Below Deck is one of five units on the property which can be rented if you have additional guests. Contact us for more details or with assistance in booking multiple units.

This property is DOG friendly. We welcome well trained dogs that are not labeled as "aggressive breeds" with a limit of 1 dog for this small space. We charge a $25 pet fee and ask that you pick up after them when they do their duties outside and kennel or crate them if they are left home alone.

The only complaint I have is the outside unit for I guess the upstairs apartment was really really loud 🙁 Only suggestion is an extra blanket and hangers but I understand people steal hangers 😉 Overall I would stay again 😊👍🏖️🕶️

Quick beach stay

Great location close to the beach. Nice fenced in area for your pup and comfortable common area to sit in the mornings/evenings. Although close to downtown businesses was quiet but little bright in room at night with outdoor lighting.

Great Location

Location was great, host communicated effectively. Room was comfortable however could use some curtains to block out sunlight and lights from surrounding businesses at night. Refrigerator handle was broken and room was musty smelling. Overall good for our short stay with limited time in property.

Great room at the Beach!

Our room at Island Getaway was clean, safe, centrally located and had all we needed for a great beach vacation! Check-in was seamless and had easy communications with our hosts. The new common areas are very nice as well. We will be back!

Cute studio condo

Perfect for me and my daughter. No frills just a basic, clean, comfy room. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom clean and the shower head had good pressure. I liked the location, walking distance to shops, a bar. It’s a nice place for a short visit.

The little condo was just wonderful. A quiet space to relax with all the comforts of home! It was very clean and the bathroom closet was huge enough to hold all of our travel luggage, so we didn't have to keep shifting things around. There is a wardrobe in the main area to hold more clothes as well. Both Bobbi and Nancy were in communication throughout our trip to help with recommendations and reminders. The condo is settled in a quaint alcove and you can safely walk less than a block for food, drinks and souvenirs! Although, you should go a bit further for a golf cart. Go to First Stop Carts, Darcy is super nice and he gave us a discount. We are already making plans to come back because this actually felt like a vacation, and not just a trip to the beach!!!

If you’re looking for luxury keep scrolling. But if you’re looking for a simple place to clean up and bed down after a day at the beach that’s affordable and convenient you won’t beat this gem.

Perfect place to stay

My husband and I loved it! Easy to find, about 3 to 5 minute drive to the beach! It's pretty quiet for the most part. The hosts were very quick to respond if we needed anything. We brought our dog with us. They have a little fence in yard. Will definitely stay there again whenever we go back!

This was a perfect place to stay. We had all the comforts we needed with this efficiency. We did not plan to cook meals but had a refrigerator and microwave. We love Port A and plan to stay here again. We did have our small dog with us. The noise level is low and he even seemed to enjoy himself.

Efficient, and centrally located

Property was more than sufficient, and located close to most attractions. Best for those who are going to be on the go, and wanting to sample the local flair and not wanting to prepare their own meals.

Absolutely adequate

This property provided a base for sleeping and relaxing on a fishing filled four night adventure. This property is a little spartan but more than adequate for resting and freshening up during our stay. I have no problem recommending this property for those on a budget.
