The property is also within walking distance of some of the area's most sought after restaurants, coffee shops, ice cream parlors, music venues, nightlife, art galleries and great shopping. There’s no need to worry about transportation if you’d rather leave the golf carts or vehicles behind.

The city of Port Aransas offers a heated community pool, skate park, basketball courts, baseball fields, playground and beautiful park on the ship channel to watch the dolphins in the evening, all a short drive away.

The backyard and front yard are lovely outdoor spaces with lush landscaping, oak trees, palm trees, and high privacy fences to enjoy. The “Port A Tropical Hideaway” owners have thought of all the details to ensure guests have the best possible experience in the property.

Don't forget the game room with a real Tiki Bar and seating for 7, mini fridge, pool table, commercial foosball table, TV and high bar table with seating for two to watch all the fun.

The main home entry on the upper floor leads to a spacious living room with two oversized sofas, wingback chairs, and a flat-screen TV mounted over the electric fireplace. The kitchen island has four bar chairs and a separate dining area for six. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to prepare delicious meals and entertain a large group. With an open-concept layout, creating an inviting space for everyone to gather, chat, laugh, and make lasting memories.

Upstairs, there are two bedrooms: a king master with a full bath and a king guest room, each with TVs. The sunroom, which is located off the kitchen, has an extra-long twin daybed with standard twin trundle bunk bed. In addition to the bathroom off the master bedroom, there is one other full bathroom in the hallway.

The downstairs apartment is accessible from the front of the home or from the back of the home going into the game room. The apartment has a small living area with a futon sofa, side table, coffee table, a flat-screen TV, and kitchenette with breakfast area seating for four. The kitchenette has a full-size refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, blender, toaster, griddle, electric skillet and kitchenette supplies.

We had 5 families with plenty of room for everybody. Great grandma and grandma took the apartment and were able to get away if needed. We had room to store all the food in 3 different refrigerator. Plenty of kitchen utensils,dishes. spices and appliances if needed. Most definitely will take advantage of going back next year we all enjoyed it. Thanks for the memories.

Great Location
The property situates very well for bigger groups. There are essentially 3 separate areas accessible by their own entrance. We enjoyed the property and its Old Town location for short golf cart ride to restaurants, fishing ramp, and beach. Great spot!

Great location and house layout!
Had a great time in Port A, we loved that we could walk to the docks from the house. The different levels of the combined VRBO listings was great for our group of 8, everyone had their own bedroom! The game area with the tiki bar was neat though I think the pool table could use an upgrade. No matter we still had fun! The AC worked great and we used the fire pit and grill while we were there. Would stay here again for sure!

Wonderful vacation home!!
Perfect Stay! This house had everything we needed and more! It was perfect for our multiple families and friends. There is plenty of space for everyone to have their own privacy, yet still remain cozy enough, when we all wanted to be together. The homes are beautifully decorated, clean and have everything you need and more. The game room was so much fun to enjoy with foosball, a pool table and a tiki bar. There was something for the kids and adults. The location couldn’t have been better being close to the marina, beach, coffee shopping and great restaurants, so everyone had plenty of places close to go on foot or in the golf carts. We also enjoyed the two private yards. We definitely will be back!

Perfect for a large stay.
There are actually 3 sections of homes. It's a perfect stay for a large family and or friends. Perfect location, walking distance to pretty much everything. Bedding was very comfy, the house was clean, (which a a huge, huge deal for me). The only reason I gave an overall 4 stars is because the master bedroom and master bath in the upstairs to the right had a sewer smell to it. I do know that they are doing some work. But who goes to Port A and stays in their bedroom all day. We would definitely stay here again!

This is our go-to rental when we have large groups. The house is wonderful. It has so many break out areas for getting away from the group, if you want to, and read a book or just sit on the upper deck and feel the Coastal breeze! Short walking distance to everything.

Mold Issues
I’ll start with, this house is on the market. I doubt it will pass inspection. My husband and I + our children were the unlucky ones that had to take the downstairs space. We immediately noticed a very strong musty smell. So strong that we actually decided against sleeping in any of the bedrooms as the smell seemed to be worse in the rooms. After further inspection, we noticed the AC units were filthy, moldy and not all of them were working. So one of the rooms was not cool enough to sleep in even if you could get past the smell. Also discovered after our kiddos put their clothes in the dresser compartments, they have mold in them as well. If I had to guess, there is most likely mold in the ventilation system. As mentioned in a previous review, the glass on the front door is shattered. Had it shattered all the way through during our stay, that would’ve obviously been problematic so we were extra careful when closing that door. We saw roaches in the downstairs and upstairs kitchen (while making breakfast). I did bring all of this to the home owners attention during our stay. And let her know that we did not occupy the downstairs space the last night as we wanted to get our kids out of there and could no longer sleep on the futon. The space in it’s entirety was not able to be used to its full potential due to the mold issues. She agreed to refund for the downstairs space and text me saying she would send screen shots of refund, that never happened.

Stay was great with family but Pictures were deceiving.
All of the air filters needed to be replaced. Water was leaking onto the pool table in the game room. There were quite a few water roaches. The window was broken on the downstairs front door. Had a great time with our family but will not rent this property again for our annual trip.
