Another wonderful stay here! The property was as described, with tons of extra details (dog dishes, games for kids, outdoor shower for after the beach)! This home is located in the golf cart district and is close to restaurants, shopping and the beach. The check in and out process was easy and convenient. Thank you again and highly recommend!

We really enjoyed our stay at The Sassy Crab. The unit was clean, decorated nicely and had everything you'd need in the kitchen. The location was great for getting to restaurants and shopping and a short drive to the beach. We enjoyed the on-site pool and the outdoor shower for rinsing off from the beach. The check-in/out process involved stopping at the mgmt company's location to get/return the keys vs. a keypad but it was close by and not a huge deal. We arrived late and were able to get the keys from a lockbox at the mgmt company. I’d definitely stay here again.

Reviewer Comments:
The house was very clean but I could tell when we walked in that there had been a dog in the home. Eventually the odor went away and the home was spotless. Only problem we had was that my wife who is only 5'1" could not get in the queen bed it is so high. We had to borrow the step stool from the laundry. Also, the beds were very warm, the mattress was covered in plastic and there was a waterproof mattress cover as well. You could feel the heat from your body rising up and this made it somewhat uncomfortable. Other than that, the house was in a prime location, very well appointed and comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. Would rent again!

Overall great stay and would stay again! This is a clean and spacious property, very comfortable with 4 adult kids. Close to beach and restaurants. There was a sign on the refrig as to not overload it or it would freeze up. That was a bummer as we arrived with cold food/drinks for the weekend. It never did get cold, we ended up buying ice and keeping our drinks in our cooler. No coffee filters, tv remote batteries or hand soap in the restrooms. We went out and purchased and left for the next guest. Overall great stay and would stay again!

Over all our stay was great. Minus the washer overflowing and leaking water everywhere. We called maintenance and I'm assuming they came quickly as we had to rush my child to ER clinic. The other few concerns I had were there was urine along the bottom of the downstairs toilets.the bathrooms did not smell clean as you can imagine. And in the future it would be nice to have a detailed list of the items in the home to be better prepared. For example is there a air fryer? What type of coffe maker do you have? K cup or filter? Toaster etc. When I called to the office I asked the girl if there was an air fryer, she said no. To my surprise there was one on the counter.

The size and layout of the house was perfect for the 8 of us (6 adults & 2 kids) and was pet friendly. The location was also perfect as it was within walking distance to our favorite restaurants and just a short drive to the beach. We enjoyed the community pool. We appreciated having an outdoor area to rinse off after the beach. We wished the master bedroom would have been cooler for sleeping and the master bath sink had more water pressure.

We had an amazing stay at this property. They really took effort to think out every single detail and possible need while in our rental. For example different levels of step stools to accommodate children and frozen shot glasses 😉 The property was very clean and check in and check out was effortless. The location was great as it was not too immersed in the action but only a 5 minute drive to the beach. There were also restaurants within walking distance. I would definitely stay at this same property again or another rental property with Port A Escapes.

This condo is beautiful and well equipped!! It’s close to all the action!! Just a few minutes from the beach and pier! Great for families or any group!!

We have stayed in a number of homes in Port A but this one was perfect for my husband and I and our puppy. Great location in the middle of town. Close to dining and the beach. It was about a 3 minute drive to the beach. The cottage was new and had all the cooking utensils you would need. It was decorated in very cute beach and crab decor. We will definitely stay here again. I have recommended it to our friends and family. Thanks for the great stay at Sassy Crab!
