PERFECT PLACE FOR PERFECT VACATION

We arrived about 6pm and had a little issue with the entry process but communication with the Manager/Owner was easy and they were able to fix the lock issue with no other problems. The house is beautiful, exactly like the pictures. The swimming pool is great, perfect for the family to enjoy. Quiet area, the house sits at the end of the road, so there wasn't any thru traffic, which is nice. Plenty of towels for both bath and pool are provided. They also have board games for family to enjoy, which we did. Everything about this home was perfect and we will definitely be back.

Perfect for our family getaway

This home was perfect for our family of 5, but had so much more room than we used. Huge bonus is the golf cart and private pool. Had everything we needed in the kitchen and a surplus of towels and extra bed linens. We stay in Port A a few times a year and this home had the coolest and best A/C we've ever come across. We would definitely stay again and recommend this home to others.

Best communication, lovely property, perfect for runners!

We spent our family Christmas/New Year during the great freeze of 2022 🤣 Despite the challenges that the weather provided, Kathy made sure that we were 110% taken care of. We absolutely loved having the beach within walking distance and the private pool for relaxing and splashing. Special note for runners *there is many miles of beach front that is runable, I ran every morning (felt completely safe running as a lone female) and enjoyed watching the sun come up. We had a really hard time leaving definitely plan on coming back!!!

Do not rent this property!

We checked in 15 min early, that being said 15 hours later would not have been enough time to correct problems. House very dirty, burners on stove not working. Dishwasher leaking. Shower in master broke. Only one towel provided in master. Hardly any dishes not near enough to cook a proper meal, even if the stove worked. Had lots of peel and stick notes on everything. Lots of cleaning expected to be done yet nothing provided to do so. No kitchen towels to even wipe counter available.Large yellow stain resembling /smelling of cat piss in second bedroom. Only 2 wash pods provided but even if I wanted to wash it the stupid notes leaved all over the place asked not to Wash comforters. Sand in every bed, except one bunk bed! Home HOT. Another note asked not to turn thermostat below 70 total understand that yet house never cooled below 75. We had to go to the store and purchase basic cleaning supplies just to stay.

About the host

Hosted by Kathy Boles

Host profile image
We are native Texans who grew up on Port Aransas beaches. This is truly our happy place. We can see the place we spent the first part of our honeymoon from our beach home’s porch. It's a special place filled with a lifetime of memories. We absolutely love everything about Port A (searching for sea shells, building sandcastles, cruising the town on warm summer nights with an ice cream in hand) and are excited to share it with you and your family. Our goal is to provide families a comfortable space to return to year after year making memories to last a lifetime.

Why they chose this property

Our girls love the beach, but they also love to swim so having a private heated pool within walking distance of the beach was key for our family beach escape. The open floor plan and spacious first-floor outdoor area also create an inviting space for bringing our friends and family to visit the beach with us. We hope all of these points will help you create as many memories as we have!

What makes this property unique

So close to the beach, but on private street means you won't feel like you're in the middle of everything even though you are. We are in the golf cart zone though you won't need one to access the beach as it's just a quick 8 min. walk down Sandcastle. We try to keep all of the things our girls enjoyed about visiting when they were small-games, books, beach wagon-as well as make sure mom and dad have what they need to relax, too like a blender, coffee maker & coffee supplies, kitchen necessities, etc. We hope your family will love our home as much as we do.
