The rental was a bottom story condo so there was no beach view. A neighborhood sits between the condo and the beach. The pool was great and the condo was clean and comfortable. It was a great stay for the price!

Thank you for your review! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the clean and comfortable condo and that the pool was a highlight of your stay. While the ground-floor location doesn’t offer a beach view, we’re happy to hear you felt it was a great stay for the price. We appreciate you staying with us and hope to welcome you back again soon!
Good clean property. Service was excellent. Did have a lil trouble with door lock, may just need some lubricant due to salt weather. Our stay was excellent. Recommend to anyone looking for a clean place to stay.
Excellent! We're glad you enjoyed your stay with Port A Escapes! We hope to book you again soon!

This accommodation was absolutely perfect for our stay in Port A. There were 3 adults, and we all felt it was large enough and comfortable. The condo was clean and the ac ran nice and cold. Also, having the benefits of a small pool and a beach boardwalk was something I was specifically looking for when searching for a rental, and this had both! Definitely would stay again!

Close to beach but not very sanitary
We loved the location and how close it is to the beach. However, many dishes had been put away dirty. There was silverware that was clearly dirty and a pitcher that was sticky and also completely unwashed. The dirty dishes probably caused the roaches. It was otherwise clean if a bit shabby.

Awesome and responsive staff, not great amenities
The staff at Port A escapes were great. When we arrived at our unit, our keys did not work. After hours maintenance arrived in less than 30 minutes with a new key. They unit itself was very clean, though we did see 3-4 roaches during our stay, including one in our bed. The water in the shower was lukewarm at best, and the water pressure was sub-par.

The ac wasn’t working very well. Very humid the whole time and didn’t cool down at all. Found roaches through the condo both live and dead. Did not stay the second night. Hopefully get some type of refund for the poor experience.

This is unfortunate! I don't see anything was reported to our office from you. For future reference please contact us directly with any issues during your stay so we are able to handle in a timely manner. We will certainly look into this more being that no issues have been reported by any guest recently.
The property and location were well maintained. The only issue we had was that when we woke up and made breakfast when I grabbed the plates to serve my family I noticed all the plates were very dirty. I notified the management and washed the dishes in the dishwasher. But that probably was my only disappointment. I’d say just check or maybe wash what you may use before using it. And there was only a small thing I could use as a broom. It would be a good idea to have a broom due to the amount of sand you my bring in from the beach. There is a wash station right outside the back door which was useful. We rented a cart and there was a cart rental parking so it worked out well.
