wonderful place to stay at port A.

Great two floor area. I came with three kids and they had their privacy upstairs and I could have mine downstairs. The outside is directly next to a pool. The owner made sure that everything was taken care of and that we were happy with the accommodations. Would recommend, and would stay there again.

2022 Annual Get Away

Our accommodations were perfect! We loved staying at The Love Shack at Pirates Bay. Quick access to the beach and loved that the pool was right outside our front door. Surprisingly enough even when the pool was busy we could not hear the outside noise in the house. The house was perfect! Kitchen well stocked and the kids loved the bunk bed set up in the loft. It was private right at the top of the steps. They had a gate at the top of the steps that was well thought out for the littles. We put a fan in the loft area at night to drown out any noise in the living room below from the adults, the kids slept so well and even slept in, in the morning. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were very comfortable. Erinn was our host and she was ready and available with any questions we had. I would highly recommend this rental and we can’t wait to return next year.

Perfect for the kids

The kids enjoyed the property. They really enjoyed their loft sleeping area. The location was close enough to the beach but far away enough from the traffic. Short distance to our favorite places to eat. We are already planning our next trip back. Easy to just walk out the front door and into the pool! Very cozy.

Only issue with the property was that the bed frame in the master was broken. Called owner and they sent someone out to fix it within a few hours. Everything else was good. Location is hidden from the crowds, but still close to beach access road and restaurants.

About the host

Hosted by Erinn Adamek

Host profile image

Hello all! I'm your host Erinn! I gave up my sales and marketing career when we started our family in 2005. My husband and I have always loved Port Aransas, so in 2011, we purchased a townhome that we could share with others as a vacation rental. Then, as most owners do, we hired a local property manager. As our daughters grew, I missed the social interaction from my career. We decided I should jump in and try self-managing. I enjoyed it so much, that since that time, we've added 3 homes to our portfolio. We warmly welcome you and take pride in being a small part of your family memories.

Why they chose this property

In town, handicapped accessible (no steps to front door), no carpet (great for those with allergies) fully stocked kitchen with good quality cookware and utensils. High speed, reliable internet and premium cable. 4 large wall mounted TVs. We've really tried to make this home comfortable for any type of guest. We use 100% cotton sheets and towels.
