About the host
Hosted by Thomas Mangold & Azita Bayat
We have owned properties in Port Aransas since 2004 and enjoy sharing our homes with our repeat customers and new guest as well.
We love sharing our cool houses with people and sharing the fun vibrant area of Port A!
We love sharing our cool houses with people and sharing the fun vibrant area of Port A!
Why they chose this property
The best part about Port A is the location to everything! The grocery store, 25 restaurants, 12 bars, the beach, the dock, the ferry, the shopping, EVERYTHING is a couple minute golf cart ride away. We wanted to stay in the city and as close to everything as possible to provide our guest with that same experience. It is so cool to drive to the beach for an hour, come take a quick outdoor shower and jump in the pool while you grill lunch. Have everything at quick access so when one person gets tired they have a place to retreat and not be a party pooper. Lots of games and books to keep you busy if the weather is crummy. The kitchen is outfitted with everything you could possibly need to make meal after meal to save some money while at the beach.
What makes this property unique
The 6 Passenger Golf Cart is a must in Port A! They are all registered with the city and are powered by super unleaded gasoline. The golf cart has seat belts and a beach pass and is available with our home rental for $95 per night.
The heated pool- Welcome to Texas where the weather is 96 on one day and 46 the next! You never know what you are going to get unless it is summer than you can ALWAYS expect HOT, HOT, HOT! The same is for the island... don't ruin your vacation by not having a heated pool! See rates section for fees for heating the pool.
