Great Vacation Location!

This is a wonderful house in Port A! It is in a neighborhood that is close to everything and oh, so quiet and peaceful! You can catch a cool sea breeze from the deck and swim in a crystal clear pool (the water felt great!). Buy a parking pass and drive to the beach in minutes--you don't have to haul all your stuff down the street or over a dune. It's also a quick trip to the grocery store, Fins, or the coffee shop! No pics this time--we ended up so chilled that I did not take a single photo! Just know the house is impeccably clean, comfy, and roomy for a couple or a small group. Well outfitted for our stay. It's pet friendly, too!

Perfect quite street near all the fun

We have stayed in the property twice and will stay again. They are very centrally located between the shop, food and beach. The street is quite and great after a day at the beach to relax and recharge for the next day.

Great location & loved the pool

The house has everything you need for a relaxing stay. The landscaping and pool are beautiful. The rooms are comfortable and the house is we decorated. The location for me was perfect. Close to the wonderful Waves cofre and gelato place, close to the beach and to the downtown with all its restaurants and shops. Would stay there again!

Our third time at this location many more in the future

We had an amazing stay at this vacation rental! The location couldn’t be better—tucked away in a quiet and peaceful area, yet just a short walk to the beach and shopping. It was so convenient to have everything we needed within walking distance.The home itself was cozy, comfortable, and well-stocked with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. It was also very easy to find, and the covered parking was a great bonus.The pool was fantastic—clean, refreshing. We really enjoyed spending time there after a day at the beach. The price was very fair for everything this rental offers.Overall, this was a wonderful place to stay, and we would absolutely book again. Highly recommend!

Our family enjoyed the cozy island vibes 2.0 house. It was located on a nice quiet street. It was a short drive to the beach, restaurants, and shops. The pool was nice and clean. The laundry/ storage room had pool floats , beach items, and outdoor games. The house also had games for the kids! The house had everything you need for a family beach vacation!

Great place for a small family!

My family and I loved staying here. The house is equipped with everything you need. We even forgot our pack n play for our baby and the house ended up having one. I was hesitant to book because I was worried about the pool with our little ones, but you actually have to go down the stairs outside of the house and through the child locked gate to get to the private pool. The pool stayed nice and cool because of the shade sail above it so it was great to cool off in after a day at the beach! P.s. BRING MOSQUITO SPRAY!

Do not recommend until maintenance issues are addressed

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a progression of several maintenance issues that continued to arise during our stay. Port A Escapes was extremely responsive in trying to get these items resolved and ensure we had a great stay but they were beyond a simple fix that could be completed during our stay. I have addressed all the issues with Port A Escapes that need to be fixed before being rented again. The house is for sale so maybe this is why there were so many maintenance issues. The issues we had were as follows: A/C, heater and washing machine did not work. House smelled badly of mold, a slow draining bathroom sink, refrigerator ran loud and constantly, a bedroom had a sagging door and the house would shake while walking up and down the stairs. I do not recommend this property at this time. It is a great location, has a lovely pool and yard and is clean.

We had a really nice stay at this property. Everything was very clean and well maintained, which made us feel comfortable right away. The pool was a wonderful bonus and a perfect way to spend the afternoons after coming back from the beach. The location was also great, literally just a short golf cart drive to the beach and close to restaurants and shops.One of the highlights for us was that the property is pet-friendly. It made our trip so much easier to bring our furry family members along, and the space worked well for having pets with us.The only minor downside was that some of the furniture wasn’t as comfortable as we’d hoped, but that didn’t take away from the overall experience. Overall, this is a clean, convenient, pet friendly spot with a pool, and we’d definitely consider staying again.
