Response from VrboOwner on 10 Jul, 2026
We are baffled by this review sir. Not once did we hear a word from you. There was absolutely zero communication on your side. As for the pots and pans we have confirmed that they are in good condition and have added even more. Our quality manager walked the house before your arrival and noticed no smells whatsoever. The rooms have TVs but it appears the batteries in a couple remotes might have died and we could have told you where more were located in the house. The pictures of the house clearly detail the dining areas available. As for the doors locking you were even sent a video upon checkin at 4:01pm that showed you how to lock the hurricane doors and you must have ignored it. Most sincere apologies for not living up to your standards but if you are not willing to communicate any concerns we will struggle to fix issues that we are not aware of.

House was great and we had a great trip. One thing I would ask the property owners is to update the amenities. There were things that were at the house that was not listed, so we brought things we did not need. The grill is hooked up to propane, so no charcoal needed. They have an ice machine in the garage that was wonderful. They did an amazing job getting us a working coffee machine for I say.

Response from VrboOwner on 14 Jul, 2026
Thank you so much for staying with us! We will definitely make a note to try and update the amenities however during summer months we hesitate to do so considering the wear and tear we typically face with persistent back to back rentals. Our grill on site was replaced a couple months ago and it is natural gas, not propane, so no bottles are necessary. Thank you for mentioning the ice maker as we do try hard to provide every ammenity possible to our guests. Please come back and see us!

We had a wonderful vacation, and this home was a great place to stay. The owner was excellent to work with, communicating promptly and going above and beyond to accommodate a few minor complications during our trip.A couple of things future guests may want to know: if you have specific kitchen items you like to cook with, it’s a good idea to bring them along, as well as a few extra kitchen towels. If you prefer sleeping with a blanket, you may also want to pack one or two.One important detail to note is that the twin-over-queen bunk bed is located downstairs in its own separate area that is not connected to the main living space. This wasn’t an issue for our family, but it’s something prospective guests should be aware of when booking.

Thank you for your candor. If we knew that you needed extra hand towels and or blankets we could have simply told you where they were in the house. Thank you for bringing this to our attention as they have now been placed in the regular stock for all guests to use. Please come back and see us. We appreciate you staying at Double Dunes!

It’s all about new memories and relaxing in comfort!

Why they chose this property

Walk to Everything! Downtown Port A Charm – Beach, Eats & Fun
Welcome to the heart of Port Aransas! Our place is perfectly located downtown, where everything you need is just a short stroll away.

The beach is just around the corner, too. Whether you're here to relax or explore, you'll love being in the center of it all.

What makes this property unique

Spacious Comfort with 3 King Beds – Perfect for Families & Groups!

One of the standout features of this home is the luxurious sleeping arrangements. We know how important a good night’s sleep is—especially when traveling—so we made sure to include three king-sized beds for ultimate comfort. No drawing straws or flipping coins—everyone gets to stretch out!
