The house was nice but had a bad scent to it upon entrance and going down to 1st floor. The walls are dirty and need some TLC. The board games were great for our family visit. Enjoyed the proximity to the beach.

Crab Manor, Palmilla Resort
This was a beautiful townhome. So comfortable & CLEAN! Very easy to get to the beach, pools & restaurants in the resort, plus it is a short drive into Port A! Golf course is manicured & ready to play. Everyone is so nice & ready to make your stay fun & enjoyable! Would recommend to all thinking about a stay at Palmilla Resort! The golf carts are great to rent! Fun for all!

Location. Decor. Open floor plan. Clean. Great beds
We loved the house and community. The house has everything you need. My only recommendation is to pack bug spray. The mosquitoes were pretty thick (not the property’s fault).

Great Stay!
We had a wonderful time. Great location, just enough space! We had two couples and a 1.5 year old. We stayed in mid-August and the home really didn't get below 72 degrees which was fine for us, but we tried setting it lower. If you have little kids, bring a baby gate to block off the stairs. If you have kids stay in the cute small bunk room, bring some options to block the windows as they don't have window treatments (we used this room as a play room only). Great water shower pressure. The upstairs king was very comfortable. Location was also great - closest to the center pool & staff was friendly.

beautiful home
This home is so beautiful and in a convenient location! Everyone was comfortable and we loved the layout. My boys loved the little windows next to the bunkbeds. We would definitely suggest renting a golf cart but maybe not from this location because it’s very pricey. The drive to the beach was very short and we could’ve walked but driving was more convenient with all of our supplies. Also we would’ve liked to of had access to the garage because it would’ve made unloading our luggage and groceries easier. Only downside was that the freezer stopped working. The icemaker stopped making ice and some other drinks and food did not freeze properly. Other than that we would definitely like to return for our next Port Aransas vacation 😊

Great vacation home
We had a lovely time at this home! The whole family was comfortable, and had a great time playing on the beach and in the pool. We would definitely rent again!
A few things to know:
Pool and guest services are very close by.
The beach is not too bad of a walk, but we did rent a golf cart and that was ideal for kid and stuff towing.
Two of the bedrooms have walk in closets big enough to put a pack n’ play.
The area with the built-in bunks has an exterior door with windows (we were able to cover it for nap time to darken the room with no problems), and the interior door is a barn door so it is pretty open to the noise of the rest of the house (bring that sound machine!)
Parking in the back (at the garage) can be tight for long vehicles, but there was plenty of street parking at the front of the house so this really wasn’t a big deal.

Great Floorplan
This location is excellent. The floorplan is outstanding. Too many fees bring up the price but overall a wonderful spot.
