The first-floor guest bedroom has a 32” TV, a twin-over-full bunk bed, a twin bed, and a twin trundle. A full bathroom with walk in shower is next door.

Upstairs is the main living area, with a lounge, dining room and kitchen sharing the same airy space. The lounge is overlooked by a 50” Vizio TV, with a love seat, recliner and papasan chair on offer to guests.

Doors lead out to the upper balcony, so fling them wide and let the ocean breezes flow in. There are deck chairs for 4 outside.

In the kitchen, a granite island sits amongst stainless steel appliances sure to please the most discerning of chefs. A glass breakfast table for 4 sits within the generous space, and there’s balcony access as well. The main dining room has a long wooden table for 6.

Just off the living area is the upstairs master suite, which also has balcony access. The en-suite bathroom has a dual vanity and walk-in shower, there’s a huge walk in closet and a king bed.

LOCATION

Royal Sands is a gulf-front haven for water lovers! At this fun community of vibrant, candy-colored beach houses, you can make a splash in 2 sparkling shared pools, go birding at the on-site ponds, or - best of all - take a short stroll to the beach via the convenient boardwalk.

Or summon your inner angler and plan your perfect deep sea fishing adventure with Dolphin Docks, a quick drive north. Bringing your own boat? Island Moorings Marina, with dock space for rent, is a short walk away. Another option: Rally the kids for a day trip to Schlitterbahn Waterpark, just 14 miles south in Corpus Christi.

Want to spend some time on land, too? Grab your clubs and head to the 18-hole Palmilla Golf Club, an Arnold Palmer Signature Course less than three minutes north.

Spring Break 2025

We brought my mother, my 17 year old daughter, and 2 of her 17 year old friends to port a for a long weekend. We really enjoy the easy access to the beach and the very quiet neighborhood. This is our second stay in this home- we stayed here for Spring Break 2024 because we enjoy the house so much. The set up is perfect. My elderly mother, husband, and I stay upstairs while my daughter and her friends stay in the downstairs bedroom. We all area able to have our spaces. There are some cosmetic fixes that would make the house more appealing- like fixing the broken blinds and touch up paint on some of the doors. But overall, we love the home and will reserve again for a weekend of Spring Break in 2026!

Great place in Royal Sands

We loved the home. It was comfortable, in a great neighborhood, and a good area of the beach. We enjoyed our time there and will try to get it again the next time we are on Port A.

Great family stay

The house was perfect size for our family of six. Plenty of towels and linens for us to use. Easy walk to the beach and pool! The washer/dryer was an added bonus for our wet and stinky clothes before packing up!

Thanksgiving by the Shore

Great location! Photo of the house needs updating it has houses built all around it. The place Fit all 9 really well. Only issue we had was the people before us left a terrible fish smell in the dishwasher, carpets really needed to be cleaned but besides that it was a great place to stay. The host communicated well with us throughout our stay! Would still come back overall best part was just a short walk to the beach like we had hoped for.

Perfect Cozy Beach House

Our stay was perfect. The house was very clean, beds were comfy, location was fabulous. We had everything we needed and more. We loved the porches. The boardwalk to the beach is a short walk away. Only thing I can think of to suggest to the owner, is to provide some door stoppers, to keep the doors propped open, but that is hardly a complaint. We would love to stay here again in the future.

Very close to beach access

Great area. Away from town but not too far out. Nice balconies to sit outside. Clean and definitely would stay again. Cons: very slow wifi. Need to replace the TV in main room. It very slow and difficult guide to find channels, no local channels. Need a tv in all the bedrooms.

Exactly as promised

Great location and proximity to the beach. We had a great time but ran into a few maintenance issues. We reported to the 24 hour service contact that a door handle in the master bedroom had come off and that the propane tanks were empty at the beginning of our stay and no one ever came to service those issues. On our last night of the stay the upstairs AC went out causing temperatures to rise to 80 degrees but again the reported ticket went unresolved. The house is well-equipped with a kitchen and beach toys. We rented golf carts from Kooks carts and they were brought right to the house. The house is right around the corner from the pool and a short walk. Great house but any customer service requests went unanswered with no follow up.

Great Beach Getaway

Great house, great location. The only issue we had was that the front door lock wouldn't work. We were able to get in using a lock box key but that made it a little inconvenient with multiple family members going different directions and returning at different times. Bring your own salt and pepper and anything else you might need. We had a great time and would return to stay here again.

Good Property

Nice house. We had a bit of a problem with the front door lock, but they worked hard to fix it. Building a new house next door that will make the porch a bit more claustrophobic, its nice and open right now. But we have come back.

Wonderful Beach Getaway!

I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our beach getaway at this property. The house was clean, comfortable, and conveniently located just a quick 5-minute walk to the beach. The beds were comfortable with plenty of room for up to seven. We enjoyed coffee on the front balcony and dinner on the back balcony. The property was just as described and well maintained. I wish it was a little closer to Port Aransas, but it was still a wonderful stay. We would stay there again!

Wonderful Beach Getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. It's roomy and comfortable and fully equipped for a family. It's an easy 5-10 minute walk to the beach via the boardwalk. The internet and Direct TV worked well, beds were comfortable, towels were thick and fluffy, and laundry room was convenient. We'd drink coffee on the front upstairs balcony and ate dinner on the back balcony after grilling on the downstairs patio. My only suggestion would be to have some table lamps in the living room, as the overhead lighting is too much at night. And although there are beds for 7-8, the living area only seats five max. But I would recommend this property and hope to stay there again.

Thanksgiving break.

The house was suitable for our short stay. As others have noted, there are no decent knives, only a few steak knives. And there was nothing to clean with in the kitchen. A brush for pots but nothing at all for counters. We ended up buying a sponge. Oddities that didn’t impede our stay.

First trip to Port Aransas

Great property! Super clean, spacious and comfortable. Decorated nicely and very tasteful. We have rented several vacation rentals and this one ranks high in the list. Neighborhood was nice and clean as well. Comfortable beds, plenty of towels, great dining area for family meals and TWO refrigerators..nice plus!! Walkway to the beach was convenient. Property management were attentive with things like garbage, etc. Two suggestions....a few more kitchen essentials could be added (strainer, pizza cutter, etc) and a journal for vacationers to write in. Previous stays we have found some great suggestions by reading what others have done. However, these are trivial things and would never keep me from revisiting.
