Weekend get away
Great place but really should fix/update internet router and Wi-Fi, add a couple blankets or heavy comforter for clients to sleep better, no ceiling fan so a small table fan would help as well or put on the listing for clients to bring with.Otherwise worth every penny! Hope to get back soon! Thank you kindly

Perfect for a weekend getaway
The location was great, and the unit was adorable. We had some trouble with the door lock code, but their response was fast. The bed was a little too hard for us and slept a bit hot but overall this was a lovely getaway.

Water heater was turned off from recent freeze. My husband had to turn it back on 🤦 And some kind of weird "splintering" noise from the HVAC. Other than that, nice stay.

The cabin was clean and inviting. The listing said no dogs so I didn’t bring my tiny yorkie🙁. I was Very disappointed when we observed several other guests with their dogs and heard others barking inside the other cabins!! The only other thing was that the coffee maker had a broken stopper when we arrived. It still brewed coffee but I could not “steal” a cup during brewing!🙃

Inside of bungalow was cute and very clean and furnished nicely, although 2 towels for a 4day/3 nite stay is not sufficient. Exterior needs maintenance. Outdoor fixtures very corroded.

Cute homey place.
Property was clean, cute and homey. Great location a few blocks from the beach and near the intersection of the two main roads. Only issue was that there wasn’t really anyplace to hang towels in the bathroom. Before we got there we were led to believe there would be no soap or shampoo, so we brought our own. However, it was all there as it should be. Only thing they didn’t have was extra garbage bags. All-in-all we enjoyed it and would stay again.

Nice Accommodation
Management provides excellent communication via email and text. Rental is as described and the photos are accurate. It is located in a busy part of town so it can get loud, but because of its location it is convenient to shops, stores and the beach.

Great place and location! Close to everything, very clean and supplied with all the essentials. Although we had an AC problem we called management and they were out within 30 minutes fix the AC and three hours later the maintenance man returned to make sure that our AC was still working. Wonderful place and we’ll definitely be back !

Good inside. Not good outside.
Very clean & nicely decorated 1 room bungalow. Many items were provided for, from towels, shampoo, soap, blow dryer, glasses, asst dishes, coffee maker ( & filters!), cookware, & more! Quiet cluster of about 8 single level units, you park right outside your front door. But surrounding neighborhood is not great; several junky properties nearby, rundown, overgrown lots & hodgepodge of unkept homes - many eyesores. Nothing can be done, just know in advance so when you arrive youll know what to expect.

Very Relaxing
My husband and I took a quick weekend trip to Port A and had a great time! Port A Escapes were so helpful and check in/check out was so easy. The location is a little deceiving by the picture, but the little house is nice. I did find an old shampoo bottle in the bathroom that had not been cleaned up. But, other than that, the stay was great!

Beach get away for two
We especially liked the “calming beach theme” get away here as it had a private fenced in area out the back door. You could use the grill and have a “honeymoon” experience for a few days before heading back to work! Close to the beach and walking distance to the grocery store and local restaurants. It was a very nice, first introduction to Port Aransas that fit into our budget and likes. Thank You

Beach get away
Perfect location! Close to the beach and restaurants. Worked out great for a little get away for my husband and I. My only complaint is that the comforter on the bed was visibly dirty and there were long brown hairs all in the bed so we didn’t use the comforter at all and we’re hesitant about even sleeping on those sheets. We didn’t report it to the property manager and just dealt with it. I would stay at this location again though just because of the location.
