Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
Disliked: Communication
We had no electricity for 10 hours and there are cracks in the shower in front bath as well as a large crack in the side of the tub. The shower is leaking and under neath the house you can feel where it is holding water. I will say the view is beautiful and it was very nice being on the beach. This house needs lots of updates including new pans to cook with.

Great Beach House

We had a great spring break visit to Port Aransas and loved staying in this property. The house was very clean, had all the basic supplies we needed, and was easy walking distance to the beach. It was exactly what we were looking for and we would absolutely stay here again!

This was our first time staying at this beach house; and we were very pleased! The view is amazing. The interior was very nice and clean, & more spacious than we expected. The side door could use a tad bit of work, but other than that, we had zero complaints! The prices were very good. We will definitely be back. This is our new favorite place.

Cool place to stay with a direct line to the beach

We had a great time at this house. The beach was steps away, there was a lot of great light and amenities. Perfect for a change of pace and a real beach experience. Would definitely book again.
