We did have to drive in to shop and eat, but that’s OK. The walk to the beach was really close, which was nice. The air conditioner is set on 73; that’s OK. I would’ve liked it a little colder but I understand. Other than that, the house was great, the property management was great. No complaints.

2023 Port A Family vacay

Great family vacation. So far best house we have stayed at in all the years we traveled to at Port A Only set back was issues with beach location and golf carts getting stuck and getting to the area where golf carts are only allowed.

Great Spacious Getaway for Large Groups with Great Host!

We had an amazing stay at this property! The house was spacious, clean, and well-equipped, making it ideal for our large group. The location was convenient, and the outdoor space was a great bonus. The property owner was extremely polite, responsive, and reasonable to deal with, which made the entire experience even better.
