Fantastic Location

The location can’t be beat! Easy access to the beach and pool! This beach area was relatively uncrowded, sandy, clean, and shallow—perfect for families and young kids. However, I wish we had been forewarned about the tar. The outdoor shower station in the community had a sign mentioning using the tar removal provided, but we never saw any such product. The property was fairly clean. Downstairs floors need a good scrubbing. Our bare feet were black not long after we arrived! Air filter needs replacing and a thick layer of dust was on the bookshelves in the bunk room. Bathrooms were tidy. It would have been nice, with a young grandson, if we had been able to use the tubs. Showers worked fine. Lots of space for the 5 of us. Would have appreciated some beach towels on site, or just more towels and washcloths for everyone. Kitchen was decently supplied with cookware and appliances, but if you’re planning on making much in the kitchen, you’ll need to bring all the cooking/pantry supplies. But, we had been advised in advance that there weren’t many basics on hand. Overall, we had a nice time and would stay again!

Mediocre house

The house was old and worn, carpets were dirty. Treads on the stairs loose. It smelt and the air filters were filthy. The pool was extremely dirty. I called and they came and cleaned the pool and air filters but needed the owner to fix the treads. They also sprayed for misquotes which were bad before that. There were no storage container with covers for food, the pots and pans were all scratched non stick so we had to go buy our own and the dishes were all plastic so could not use in the microwave. The beds and baths were clean and acceptable. The beach and deck were awesome!

Awful smell, broken appliances, dirty, but close to beach

The positive: we were extremely close to a relatively uncrowded part of the beach. Very little competition or crowds and we enjoyed the beach and the weather. The house was large enough for our family of five and our dog. The neutral: fire ants and stickerburrs were everywhere. That comes with the territory but worth knowing. The bad: the house is built on creosote pilings, which gave the entire place an overwhelming stench of mothballs. We did our best to air out the house and nobody was physically sick from it, but family members in the area with sensitivities to indoor air allergens would not enter the house. We called and were told that was just how the house was and nothing could be done about it. The washing machine wouldn’t spin; we called to let them know and they sent a repair tech over who informed us the drum was broken but otherwise it was fine (which is not fine). No other effort was made to fix it over the weekend so we did our best to hand wash our clothes. The dishwasher was also mostly useless. We didn’t overload it and do know how to use a dishwasher, but this just did not clean dishes. The kitchen table was covered in a sticky film that would not come clean. We had to use our fingernails to scrape up the Monopoly money when we played a game. The stains on the carpet upstairs are everywhere. We get that it’s pet friendly but we also assume a level of cleanliness that simply was not there. Other reviews note some of these issues, they are definitely not reso

Quick May Getaway

I really enjoyed our quick getaway. House was clean and in a cute little gated community. Great location right on beach and house located just a short 5-10 minute ride into Port A in one direction or North Padre in the other. The only thing I wished the house had was beach towels and more full size cleaning items (dish soap, hand soap, kitchen counter disinfectant/cleaner). Other than that I really enjoyed the house and our stay.

We really enjoyed our stay. Excited about the view from the decks and short walk to beach. Even though weather was cool, we walked on the beach each day with our dogs. Kitchen was great for cooking and beds were very comfortable. The couch and living area were great for hanging out together and after Thanksgiving nap. Thank you so much. We enjoyed our stay!!

Long weekend stay

Great time, great place. Very short walk to beach which is tough to find in that area. Easy to get to Port A for dinner or whatever else. Only hiccup we had was wifi wasn't working, but the property management co couldn't have been more helpful. Offered to send someone out relatively late at night. (We deferred to morning and they got up and running right away.) Would go back!

Wonderful weekend

We loved this house!! It was a trip with family: 2 grandparents, 2 adults, 3 twenty-year old & 1 toddler. There is a lot of stairs that were hard on Grandma, but she mostly stayed in the living room off the kitchen. The “ bunk” room is larger than the pictures. The pool was great and our balcony had stairs down to the pool gate - very close! And the boardwalk to the beach was very close also. The house was very clean & had all the extras we appreciated like shampoo & soaps, toilet paper & paper towels, dishwashing soap & even some pods for the clothes washer. The only thing we had to buy was kleenex for each bathroom. The refrigerator had a working ice maker with lots of ice. We all had a wonderful time !! I highly recommend this rental!!

Lovely Property - Poor customer service

Overall it was a lovely property. The pros of this property is location, location, location. Easy walk to the beach. The rooms were roomy, but the upstairs bedrooms didn't cool very well. Property was clean, however, there seemed to be alot of dead bugs in the unit, even under the coffee pot and toaster. Upon arriving later in the evening, we discovered that the lock on the balcony door in the master bedroom was broken. The maintenance man came out and took a look and told us it could not be fixed and they would have to get owner permission to replace. We were a group of 3 single women and I was uneasy about sleeping with a broken lock. Upon speaking with the property manager, she suggested we use a broom stick to secure the door. We did try that but it did not work. She then told us to "live with it or go home". While I realize there was nothing more physically that could be done that night, I wasn't prepared for such a harsh remark. Very disappointing! They did come back out 2 days later and brought a security bar for the sliding door. Also, just a suggestion for future guests, it might be nice to offer some welcoming touches and information about Port A itself.

Awesome Stay Near Port A!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay during our spring break trip to Port Aransas. The rental was clean, cozy and located just steps from the boardwalk to the beach. The deck overlooks the pool area so it is easy to keep an eye on little ones and communicate with family members. We appreciated that maintenance was on the grounds every morning keeping things neat and tidy. Even though it was spring break, the beach adjacent to the complex was not crowded and it was easy to find a place to set up. Highly recommended and we would not hesitate staying here again!

Great location, house needs attention

House location is great, we could walk to the beach easily and made it convenient for the teens to go back and forth. That said, AC was awful we actually got a text saying not to turn it to the lowest setting as it will freeze up and stop working- Not ok. IT was very HOT the first night and made it very uncomfortable for everyone. Had 3 lightbulbs out, really? Just replace them. WiFI was NOT working, after multiple texts with no response the Mgmt company sent someone out, we were NOT informed and scared the crap out 2 of our teen girls who had walked back to the house from the beach, I was livid, got a text after the fact saying manit was at home and there was a new WiFi password. The carpets upstairs were FULL OF BURRS and stuck into the rug, what kind of cleanign job was that?? We had to wear shoes at all times upstairs as thats how bad the burrs were, I pulled about 20 out before I gave up . In summary all my biggest issues, AC, WiFi and cleaning are brought up in just about every post before this, I should have listened- I would not recommend renting this unit if any of those 3 issues are a concern of yours or be prepared for a hot first night, no WiFi without multiple calls and texts and wearing shoes upstairs for burrs (which makes me think the rest of the home was just not clean enough) Just FIX YOUR ISSUES, all I want is to write a glowing review, none of these issues are news to you

Excellent location, almost right on the beach, short boardwalk. Lovely view of the ocean, nice decks and pool was great. Plenty of room & beds. 3 bathrooms were great. Nicely decorated. Cons: The 2 upstairs carpeted bedrooms had large stains on the carpet and smelled so bad! The air conditioner did not cool the upstairs bedrooms and was not much better on the main level. The internet did not work. A broom and swiffer would have been nice for a quick clean up and some basic cleaning spray. But no cleaning supplies were provide. 3 dishwasher cubes and a small sample size of dish washing liquid was all that was provided. The management company was quick to respond to our calls but were unable to resolve the issues while we were there.

Perfect Location! Great Home!

We loved the house and really loved the location! I was concerned about the recent negative reviews but we were very happy with the rental. The sofa in the pictures has been replaced with a nice sectional and there was plenty of room for us. I loved that you can sit on the patio and see the ocean and the pool at the same time! We could let our teens swim and keep an eye on them at the same time. The house is literally steps away from the boardwalk. The only cons would be that it’s not fully stocked So if you think you need it then bring it. Also- the mosquitoes are horrible so bring bug spray. All in all we would definitely stay here again!

Dirty, Dysfunctional and Dissappointing

This property was falsely represented in the pictures from the Vrbo website. The property was extremely dirty and not well maintained, definitely NOT worth the weekly rate we were charged. There is no way this place should have been advertised for up to 8 guests! It was really just 2 bedrooms and a large closet with bunk beds. Additionally, the dryer did not work. Microwave was broken. Furniture was worn out and very uncomfortable, and so were the worn out mattresses. TV and internet did not work. The place needed a major updating and we finally had a replacement dryer installed following a visit to the local management company, Port A Escapes (they tried their best to get the property owner to approve a replacement dryer which should have been within 24 hours). We ended up getting the replacement dryer more than halfway through our stay. Can you imagine the inconvenience of no dryer with 6 guests and an infant at a beach house? Piles of wet towels and laundry ... a total disaster. This was unacceptable as it it should have been checked to ensure it was operational before we arrived.. If you book a property on Vrbo make sure you ask when the exterior and interior pictures were taken. The interior pictures for this property were taken in 2014, which was very misleading. Thankfully our family made the best of a bad situation and while we appreciate Port A Escapes assistance in securing a partial refund, we will never use Vrbo again. Unfortunately there is very little you can do when you pay in advance. Oh well ... lesson learned!
