Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family had a great time! The house is an easy walk to the boardwalk access to the beach. Beach access road 2 is a quick dash for the hauling of beach gear (canopy, coolers and chairs) to our spot. The pool is several houses away and has no shade for sun relief. The house could use a second broom on the main level and needs kitchen towels and hot pads. Otherwise, everything was great!! House is a quick drive to Port A and only 20 minutes to HEB plus in Flour Bluff. We loved our stay! ##### Larri W.

Beach is walking distance. Enough space for 2-3 families with kids. Maintenance available 24/7 Cons - Bottom floor smelled unpleasant. No connectivity in 1st and 2nd floor from inside the house. Water leak on first floor, though attended by maintenance caused inconvenience during the stay. ##### Vinod G.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I stayed with a group of friends this past weekend and this home was great! It was very clean, air conditioner and all appliances worked, and it was very close to the beach. There is a boardwalk right on site that heads to the beach and is only a 3-5 min walk. I have stayed at a couple other places in port a and this one has been my favorite. I will hope to get this place again next year and recommend to anyone looking for a vacation beach house!!! ##### James J. ### 8/10 Good #### Paul P. 29 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Family Vacation Property was great size and spacious for everyone.

Unfortunately, the beach access was a problem for us. This location only provides a walking boardwalk. note - no golf cart access. We Had canopies, coolers, toys so we had to drive to beach access 2 (2 miles) or beach access 1 (5.7 miles). Bathrooms very clean, beds clean, kitchen clean! Living area needs some attention. Overall, lovely house. But we will not stay here again due to location. ##### Courtney M.

The walk to the beach was not far and the views were great! There is an inside staircase to the 3rd floor master room (the house description says there is not). A grill is NOT provided even though there is one in the pictures. Luckily we had brought our own grill and griddle. According to the HOA regulations a grill can not be with 10' of the house. This was an inconvenience, since it rained the majority of the time we were there. But the house was fully stocked with everything you need to cook with! ##### Beverly F.

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Port Escapes company requires a 4:00 check in. We checked in at 4:00 to discover that the first floor was locked and no key to be find. The Port Escapes company told us three different options to get in to find out in the last phone call conversation that there was a key to unlock the first floor. Called back at 5:03 and was given the after hours phone line and reported that we did not have a key. We were told by the port escapes after hours person that someone would call us back. Nobody called us back. We did not have access to the first floor which had to additional bedrooms that we paid for! Terrible management company and found the first floor dirty with dead bugs! Terrible place to stay! ##### Sarah M.

The property was well equipped, better than we expected! It worked out very well for our whole family, And it was also fairly close to the beach, which is where we spent a great deal of time! One thing that you might want to fix is the wood flooring in the living room hallway on the 2nd floor. It's bowing and coming apart. Thank you! ##### Paul V.

She has leukemia and many health issues that come along with age. But....she is determined to carry on with our family traditions and one is always a yearly trip to Padre Islands! We chose this property so she would not have to climb stairs and it worked out perfectly! We love the Lost Colonies area and have stayed several times in different homes on property. It is one of the best and most convenient beach front properties for all ages! This is our family time and love the privacy to just enjoy each other!! ##### Shelly J.

Reviewer Comments: This place is very nice!! This was our first time renting this place and we all loved it. It was very clean, easy to access, close to town but out of the way enough get away from the traffic and it had plenty of room inside and on the patio deck. ##### Brandon J. ### 2/10 Terrible #### Amanda S. 28 Jun 2022 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy #### Disappointed The reviews are very much true. The listing say remodel home but the 2nd floor is very uneven, there a spot on the floor that Dips in and feels like your going to fall through the floor. Bunkbeds are not very sturdy they wabble alot they look like there about to collapse. Sheets were not cleaned some rooms had sand in the sheets, we even found a poop stain on one of the of the beds. There was dead wasps on the windows. Some of the ceiling fans do not work. The washer is extremely loud. Bottom sliding door does not lock they have a stick on there so it wond open. Overall for the amout of money that we paid is was not worth it. They hype the price up they actually should really look into that 2nd floor that's a safety issue. Oh yes and also kids couldn't play outside on the grass due to there so many stickers in the ground they keep gettingpokedby them, I am not overreacting there was alot, even one that stay in the house step on one. The only good that came out of this home was how close it was to the beach, other then that this home needs alot if work, they actually should rent it out without fixing it 1st someone gonna get hurt. 1 star for me not going back. ##### Amanda S.

Reviewer Comments: House and location were great. The only problem we had was with the mosquitoes. We were unable to use any of the outdoor areas. I'm not sure anything could have been done about this. Otherwise, very nice. ##### Timothy H.

Reviewer Comments: The biggest problem was the wasp nest INSIDE the house, on the living room ceiling. They came out promptly to spray the nest but we continued to deal with live wasps in the house for the remainder of the stay.Other problems:Internet didn’t work the entire timeTwo televisions didn’t work properly No blankets on the beds or in the house. The weather was very cold.The house is outdated- not the luxury property that is advertised.On the plus side, the location is great. I think the office staff was trying to help fix our problems but it was thanksgiving week, so it was difficult. ##### Anne R. ### 8/10 Good #### Alice S. 24 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Take a breather This has been our 2nd year staying at this property. I like the downstairs for my elderly parents and the upstairs for our adult children and grand baby. We did have some minor issues with the property the drier wasn’t working and the sink had a leak. When I contacted the property manager they had someone over to try to repair the items. But over all it was a good stay. ##### Alice S.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Pelicans Place is getting a little run down and needs some improvements. The plumbing needs attention, the 2nd level floor near the dinning room, feels like you might fall through in a couple of spots. The washer is extremely loud, the dryer was broken and couldn't be used. Maintenance came out and fixed some of the drain issues and tried to fix the dryer, but was unsuccessful. We had to use a local laundry to wash and dry our clothes, which took time away from our vacation. For the price we paid, I expected everything to be in working condition. I recommend that someone does a complete walk through before anyone is allowed to stay at this location.I wouldn't recommend this property until these issues are completely repaired. ##### Richard N. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [SpringHill Suites by Marriott Dallas McKinney/Allen](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dallas-Hotels-SpringHill-Suites-By-Marriott-Dallas-McKinneyAllen.h23474052.Hotel-Information) > > [I L❤️VE U!
