Phenomenal Spot for Wedding

Perry is fantastic - the best Vrbo owner I have interacted with us. When we were looking for intimate locations to host our wedding, he went out of his way to give us a tour and worked with us while planning for our day! The property is so nice and very clean - the rooms are cozy and welcoming! The pool and backyard spaces are perfect for weddings or family vacations and we will be back soon!

PERFECT house for large gathering

I celebrated my 30th birthday with all of my family & had a fun family reunion! Communication leading up to our stay was fabulous, my expectations were exceeded when we got there! I had brought some pool floats and wanted to bring corn hole - but they’re available in the garage!!! The kitchen was well equipped and everyone had the best time. Just wear shoes on the deck, a couple of splinters were dug out of little feet. It was a FABULOUS stay and I’d stay here again with another large group!!!

College Reunion

We had a great time at this property! Even though the AC went out on our day of arrival, the host was very accommodating and had it fixed the next day. Perfect rental for families with kids, if you have all adults, I recommend no more than 12.

Great house

We have a large family and the house accommodated all 21 of us. Short distance from the beach, close to stores. The private pool area was great. Full recommendation for this house.

Great for Big Groups!

This house is perfect for a multi family or large group vacation. They have everything…dishes, spices, pool toys, fire pit, 3 refrigerators, TV’s everywhere, the list goes on! The owner is very responsive to questions and handled the one issue we had right away. I would highly recommend this place. We will definitely be renting this one again for future trips!

Port A Vaca

We had a great time. The house was great with lots of space for our 3 families. The kitchen was stocked with pans and dishes which we used and appreciated. There were plenty of towels both for the pool and bathing. We loved the blankets we could throw over ourselves when watching TV. I personally appreciated the hangars :) We all appreciated the laundry soap and hair products and soap in the showers. The pool was awesome and we spent a lot of time there. The owner has gone out of his way to provide extras that made our stay fun and easy. The owner was also easy to communicate with and helped us when we needed anything. We all agreed that any future trip to Port Aransas will be spent in this house.

Family vacay

We really loved our stay. We had a big group of people and it never once felt crowded. That’s how big and spacious the area is. They had everything you ever needed which was a big help. The communication with the host was great. He always responded quickly. We’ve been to plenty Airbnb’s, and this is by far the best one. Will definitely be coming back again

The Gold Standard of Port A!!!

Everything from booking, check-in, the home, the amenities, location, check-out, and the owner…. set the standard of how a vacation rental should operate. House was stunning and had tons of parking. Beautiful interior and no expense was spared on furnishings, linens, backyard pool/amenities, Great layout especially with multi-family renters. Entire mother-in-law suite on lower level with kitchen and several bedrooms would give 2 families their own privacy when needed. Place is huge! Perry was the king of hosts’ ensuring everything was to standard and even went out of his way to recommend local restaurants and bars. Beyond accommodating to make sure our stay was memorable (the good kind). There is not one negative thing to mention or recommend. Thank you so much for opening up your home to us and we will certainly be booking here for years to come!

Amazing!!

We had a big group stay for spring break and it was absolutely perfect! We had plenty of room and the property manager was so responsive and helpful. He left out little snacks for us and we had a ball. We were also so close to the beach so it was an easy walk! 10/10 recommend!!

About the host

Hosted by Perry Graham

Host profile image

Hello, my name is Perry I grew up in this house and was blessed of being raised on the island doing the fishing and beach life. After graduating on the island I went to the Marine Corps and retired after 21yrs. Since then my wife and I decided to settled in the Heartland of Texas to raise our son and manage our land. I still have a very rooted connection with the island and all the wonderful people on it.

We love spending time here relaxing in the pool, fun on the beach, fishing, or just socializing and eating in the many local establishments. Even though we live off the island now, I am available to answer any questions you may have and strive to make your stay as comfortable as possible.

My mother Mary Jane spent over 30yrs fishing offshore on the island and went by AnglerJane on the docks. (Or “Cuda Jane” if you ask John) She always wore a gold Marlin necklaces and that is the short version on how the name Marlin Jane came about.

I am excited that you get to be part of all the enjoyments that the island has to offer and honored that Marlin Jane's Beach House will be part of creating many wonderful memories.

All the best and God bless!
