The best part was the deck--great ocean views. Would love more comfy seating there. The kitchen was well stocked with equipment and we cooked several meals there. We did need to purchase salt, pepper and other essentials. The smoke alarm went off every time we used the oven, but turned off quickly when we opened the doors. The place was quiet, even during spring break. Beach access was easy and nice they have a shower there to rinse off on your way in. Beds were firm and could have been more comfy. But it was a good location for outings to the beach and town. Very easy vacation.

Perfect place for us

Came to Port Aransas for a quick family get away that fit in all our schedules and this place was perfect. Plenty of space and had everything we needed to be conformable (we cooked all our meals and only went out one night). Location was perfect too. Easy walk to the beach which made it easy for us to go back and forth.

SandFest stay

The property is located close to beach access both by vehicle and walking pathway from condo. Unit is clean and has a nicely equipped kitchen. My only complaint is the late 4:00 check-in and early 10:00 check-out. If you are only staying a weekend, you are not really getting much access to the condo

Great view and location

Great place and the location was super. Right by the pool and the beach access trail. Beds and room sizes were just right. Water pressure was low but an adjustable shower head might help that. Really could have used a washer and dryer because the community one was not great and ran about $3 load. All in all, great beach place and we would certainly stay again.

Great View/very peaceful

The unit had beautiful finishes and fixtures and the view was great from the living room, master bedroom, kitchen and balcony. The balcony was large so that our family could all sit there comfortably. The location was convenient to everything in town and the beach was a short walk down the private sidewalk. The pool was large and very nice. We stayed with our 2 adult children and their spouse/fiance and our 5 year old grandson. Everyone had thier own space and it was very comfortable. We very much enjoyed our stay.

Great beach access

We had a great time & enjoyed our stay. You might want to bring your own pot holders if you plan on using the oven (we just made do with a towel). My guys are avid baseball followers & were disappointed they couldn’t use the TV in the living room to watch a game in the evening. I called the rental company, but don’t think the maintenance worker ever made it over. It didn’t detract from the trip, just a bit of a bummer.

Best Location EVER!

I honestly can't think of anything negative to say about this home. It is more beautiful than the pictures show. The layout of the rooms was perfect for my teenage children. Everything was clean and it was easy to find anything we needed. The view from the HUGE balcony is worth us coming back over and over for! Plus the bonus of having a pool just outside the building was amazing! My kids loved going to the pool after a fun day at the beach (which is literally just a couple minute walk... but wear shoes on the walk, those stickers are no joke). Bring your own beach towels and salt/pepper/spices.... they did have coffee filters and a wine opener though, which is the important stuff ;) Overall we LOVED our stay here and we are already looking forward to booking again!!

Not what it appears to be!

We received a call the day of check in and was told the AC was not working properly and the dishwasher was broke, and both would be repaired tomorrow. Didn't happen. AC took 3 days. Dishwasher never got fixed and full of nasty water that put out a foul smell. It was a bummer because nobody liked spending vacation time hand washing dishes. We spent over 300$ on groceries so we didn't have to eat out all the time. No AC and cooking dinner didn't work well as it was hotter in the condo in the evening, so we had to eat out. The beds are not comfortable the queen is an old spring mattress that squeaks and bounces when you move. The king wasn't much better. As for the bunks, well they are futon mattresses. The coffee pot was so filthy in the reservoir that it could be cleaned so we had to go buy a new one. No we didn't leave it so bring your own if you need coffee. We were not offered any type of compensation and most of my emails from the management were unanswered. Will not return to that condo. On a good note the balcony was awesome.

Great location with room for improvement

I will start by saying the greatest thing this rental hard going for it with the location. It was an easy walk to the beach and across from the pool without being too close. Communication was great about the stay which we appreciated. The condo itself had a great kitchen. It was stocked with everything you could possibly need. The living room had the absolute smallest television I’ve ever seen in a rental. It was basically a laptop screen. The balcony was a great size with a wonderful view. It was begging for a larger table, but overall OK. The kids bedroom with the two bunkbeds had great beds. There was no TV in the kids room, which I thought was a little odd. But other than that it was a wonderful room. The shared bathroom was OK. There was a towel rack that fell off during the shower, which was a bit alarming, but it was overall clean. The secondary room was good, but there are no closets in any of these rooms. There were some creative alternatives that were helpful. But the bed was absolutely uncomfortable for three days. The headboard did not seem to be attached at all so anytime, you sat down on the bed, you feel like the bed was going to fall apart. The master bedroom looked like what appear to have mold, or something black along the whole perimeter on the bottom of the shower. It was quite disturbing. We were unaware that we were renting a second floor unit. Which ended up being just fine but clearer description would’ve been helpful. Overall just ok.

Almost perfect

Loved the unit! It was well appointed and very clean except there was a used bar of soap in the master shower & the shelf that it was on clearly had not been cleaned either. There is a large balcony facing the ocean which was really nice. The stairs to the unit are pretty steep for carrying luggage, ice chest, etc.

Perfect location

My sister wanted a pool, my husband wanted a clear view of the dunes/gulf water and I wanted a short walk to the beach. This spot had it all. We enjoyed the morning walks and watching the moon rise on the balcony in the evening. We even grilled some shrimp on the outdoor grills by the picnic benches. We will definitely be back. Thank you for a great experience.

Port A

Location and large deck were great. I would say the condo was very dated and linens (espicially) washcloths and towels were threadbare. We ended up purchasing some dishcloths and leaving for future guests as there were none. Knowing these things, we would come prepared with our own supplies if rented again.
