LOCATION

Royal Sands is a gulf-front haven for water lovers! At this fun community of vibrant, candy-colored beach houses, you can make a splash in 2 sparkling shared pools, go birding at the on-site ponds, or - best of all - take a short stroll to the beach via the convenient boardwalk.

Or summon your inner angler and plan your perfect deep sea fishing adventure with Dolphin Docks, a quick drive north. Bringing your own boat? Island Moorings Marina, with dock space for rent, is a short walk away. Another option: Rally the kids for a day trip to Schlitterbahn Waterpark, just 14 miles south in Corpus Christi.

Want to spend some time on land, too? Grab your clubs and head to the 18-hole Palmilla Golf Club, an Arnold Palmer Signature Course less than three minutes north.

Spring Break 2025

We brought my mother, my 17 year old daughter, and 2 of her 17 year old friends to port a for a long weekend. We really enjoy the easy access to the beach and the very quiet neighborhood. This is our second stay in this home- we stayed here for Spring Break 2024 because we enjoy the house so much. The set up is perfect. My elderly mother, husband, and I stay upstairs while my daughter and her friends stay in the downstairs bedroom. We all area able to have our spaces. There are some cosmetic fixes that would make the house more appealing- like fixing the broken blinds and touch up paint on some of the doors. But overall, we love the home and will reserve again for a weekend of Spring Break in 2026!

Great place in Royal Sands

We loved the home. It was comfortable, in a great neighborhood, and a good area of the beach. We enjoyed our time there and will try to get it again the next time we are on Port A.

Exactly as promised

Great location and proximity to the beach. We had a great time but ran into a few maintenance issues. We reported to the 24 hour service contact that a door handle in the master bedroom had come off and that the propane tanks were empty at the beginning of our stay and no one ever came to service those issues. On our last night of the stay the upstairs AC went out causing temperatures to rise to 80 degrees but again the reported ticket went unresolved. The house is well-equipped with a kitchen and beach toys. We rented golf carts from Kooks carts and they were brought right to the house. The house is right around the corner from the pool and a short walk. Great house but any customer service requests went unanswered with no follow up.

Comfortable home Amazing location

Loved the location of this home. It was so close to the beach and the pool and we walked to both. Make sure you have a beach wagon to easily haul your stuff for a day of fun at the beach. Plenty of room for 3 families to share with home able to handle a total of 6 adults and 1 child. Kitchen is spacious and great for cooking meals. The dishwasher is wonderful to have and quietly cleans while you relax. Fridge is fairly new and keeps items cold. Breakfast nook is perfect to gather as is dining area off living room. Beds are really comfy with only one person not completely happy with queen bed being “too soft”, but it was only mentioned once. Great to have 3 full baths with plenty of hot water for everyone. A/c is cold and works great keeping the home at a perfect temp for comfort. Amenities that we did not expect were beach equipment: boogie boards, sand buckets and toys for the kids and beach towels. A real perk is the outdoor shower to rinse off the sand before coming indoors. We did have a few things that needed to be addressed for safety reasons like a battery failing in the smoke detector resulting in a constant beeping when we first arrived. There were loose boards on the outside backstairs landing that were quite dangerous until repaired. These things were promptly fixed by bill the maintenance man who was friendly and courteous and very competent. He even repaired the knob on one of the master bedroom doors. This house is really quite

Thanksgiving by the Shore

Great location! Photo of the house needs updating it has houses built all around it. The place Fit all 9 really well. Only issue we had was the people before us left a terrible fish smell in the dishwasher, carpets really needed to be cleaned but besides that it was a great place to stay. The host communicated well with us throughout our stay! Would still come back overall best part was just a short walk to the beach like we had hoped for.

Very close to beach access

Great area. Away from town but not too far out. Nice balconies to sit outside. Clean and definitely would stay again. Cons: very slow wifi. Need to replace the TV in main room. It very slow and difficult guide to find channels, no local channels. Need a tv in all the bedrooms.

I would not stay in this house again

This property is in a great location but we were so disappointed with our stay. We had a cleanliness issue that made one of the beds completely unusable for the duration of our stay. We were never able to get this issue resolved and it completely changed the sleeping arrangements we had made. We also planned on cooking but were missing several items I would expect in any standard kitchen. The kitchen utensils were barely enough for our family to use, we ended up having to wash them after every meal and use plastic silverware. Everything was mismatched. There wasn’t even basic salt and pepper. The setup of the kitchen made it difficult to prepare meals like we planned. We have stayed in other homes at the beach and they had everything stocked that we needed to be able to cook, which meant all we had to bring was the food. If you stay in this house, plan to eat out or bring your own cookware, silverware, can openers and everything you need to cook. The location was nice and the proximity to the beach was great, but we would not stay in this house again. We definitely will not be using Vacasa either. The customer service was dismissive and never resolved the issues we discussed.

A 30-day Winter Retreat

The proximity to the beach was excellent. Plenty of space with a reasonably well-equipped kitchen. Would have loved a salad spinner. We were surprised there was not a gas grill as noted in the property amenities listing. The Weber grill was rusted through in multiple places including the handle. The grill as noted in a previous review (July 2021) needs to be replaced. Since we were there 30 days that was disappointing. All in all a great rental & would definitely stay there again if the opportunity arises.

Very Nice House

The house was very good with a well equipped kitchen although we did contribute a potato masher. The description about how close to the beach it is was misleading. It is not a 2 minute walk, it was more like a 5-10 minute walk. 2 minutes to the boardwalk not to the beach. Also it really only sleeps 9 in a bed, 10 would have to use the couch. Not enough mugs for coffee and the temperature was difficult to control. Washer and dryer were wonderful and the beds were comfortable, but I would like to have had a dust mop.. It would have been nice to be able to watch a tv program and the news. Seating was good and we enjoyed the table for dinning and playing cards. Overall a good stay.

Beautiful Home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were very comfortable and couldn't be happier with our group of 4 adults and 4 children in your wonderful home. Great kitchen, comfy beds, and a very short walk to the beach with easy boardwalk access. Home is beautifully decorated and nice appliances all in working order. The only thing I would add to the house is some additional silverware (especially spoons). . Some reviews mention the house being built next door. The house as of thanksgiving 2021 is "in progress" but did not bother us at all during our stay. I suspect it will be complete soon. We had a couple of minor issues with some housekeeping things and turnkey was super responsive and helpful! I would definitely stay again.
