Condo was clean & comfortable and location was right on the beach with a great boardwalk to the beach. It is a smaller complex and easy access to condo. Not as big and crowded as some of the high rise condos. Very comfy feel. Check in process was very easy. We would rent here again.

Arriving Before the Crowds
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: We stayed the first week in May. The interior was lovely, but slightly musty as it was the beginning of the season. Exterior is a little worn, but is very old school Port A for those of us who like that. Ocean view is a generous description - dune view is more accurate. In the kitchen they were short on glasses - 6 glasses and 4 cups for 5 people was a little stingy. Overall we had a great time and would go back.

Anchors Away was great location
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 3 of us for 5 nights (2 of those we had an additional person) in a very comfy 2 bedroom. Loved location, on back side facing dunes and walkway to beach. Nice to have our own balcony! Unit was clean and had enough essentials although we also purchased additional trash bags and cleaning materials we thought we may need. My only concern was AC. Maybe it was fixed but during day and even into the evening, although I set the thermostat down to 68 to try to cool it off, it would only cool to about 80. One bedroom cooled down but general area and one bedroom remained warm and I had to constantly live the one Dan around to stay comfortable. We called maintenance but he just said it seemed to be working://. As a result, I had some difficulty sleeping. The location is very close to everything: coffee shop, grocery, beach, restaurants. Other than the AC, it was a perfect trip!

Couldn't get the unit cooled below 79-makes sleeping very difficult. Loved everything else about the unit.

Getaway
Property was very comfortable, quiet, spacious and perfect for our family weekend getaway. Wifi was functional unlike some properties we have stayed at and our room even had a smart tv. Our only complaint was the master bed was noticeably warmer then the rest of the rooms and it was quite bright early in the morning making it harder to sleep in other then that it was really accommodating. I would stay here again.

Nice rooms and furnishings. Would have really enjoyed the balconies that were closed and locked! Kitchen nicely appointed and supplied. Good lighting and AC worked well. Had lots of trouble getting TV reception - no instructions available to help. Really liked the covered parking, especially since there was so much rain during the first half of out stay. Appreciated the boardwalk to the beach once the rain stopped (LOL). Overall a very pleasant stay in Port Aransas.

Will stay again
I had reservations about booking this place because of the complaints about the slightly dated interior. After staying here, I thought that the interior was just fine. It was clean and that's the most important thing to me. It was cozy and honestly, how much time are you actually spending in there anyway? The location was awesome, being the closest condo to the beach. The number of beds offers a lot of flexibility, which is great because we were able to bring our mother-in-law along in addition to our own children. The pool area was awesome, we went when the temperature is in the low 60s and my family spent a lot of time in the heated pool. The close proximity to downtown Port A was a huge plus as well. Lots of food, shopping etc within a very short golf cart ride. My only complaint was the master bathroom toilet didn't flush well. Sometimes took two or three flushes. Oh, and also the The second bathroom only had one out of four lights operational. Hopefully this is resolved for future guests. I would still stay here again, and actually as I speak I'm looking at availability for future dates.
