Island Retreat is a great place to spend time with family and friends. This smoke-free condominium is beachfront . . . you simply walk over the dunes on the boardwalk to the flat part of the beach. Two pools! Pickleball, volleyball, shuffleboard, tennis, basketball all on the 25 acres of Island Retreat to enjoy! Fish House and Boat parking on-site.

If you don't feel like getting sandy at the beach relax by one of the two pools or play some tennis, volleyball, shuffleboard or basketball.

4.0 / 5.0
The amenities were as described, very nice. The location was as hoped, easy access to the beach, nice view from the balcony.
The air conditioning was not able to keep the hall bedrooms as cool as the rest of the house.
Overall we had a wonderful time.
3.0 / 5.0
Love the property and appreciate the owner providing their mobile phone and quickly responding to any inquiries.
My only complaint is that my family and I feared the excessive rules.
For example, there are strict guidelines regarding the ac: certain vents open at certain angles, and thermostat set at 76° “or else.” After following the rules, most bedrooms were still too warm and I’m glad we brought additional cooling fans.
If you break the fan remote or misplace any remotes, there’s a large fine.
Wash your towels and put in dryer before you leave. Not a fan of having to do laundry on vacation. When we started the washer to wash the towels, there was a terribly moldy odor coming from the machine.
Note on washer/dryer: do NOT put anything with sand in the washer/dryer. Again, afraid to wash anything at all.
Our stay felt more like a test than a vacation. We spent a lot of money on this condo to relax and enjoy ourselves, the whole time we felt on guard and uneasy for fear we would be fined for the slightest mishaps. It's possible the owner is not aware how the directive messaging can be perceived. Messaging felt more like a syllabus for a college undergrad class versus a "welcome and please be mindful" during your stay.

My family absolutely loved staying at this condo. We have small children and an infant, so the fact that we were located on the beach was a lifesaver. The pool was also large so we didn’t feel crowded up against other families. The actual condo was perfect for us as well. The large dining table and kitchen island provided plenty of space for our nightly dinners (after grilling by the pool) and everyone had their own space…kids played games and the adults enjoyed spending time on the balcony in the mornings and evenings. We hope to return here next summer!

The condo was even better than the pictures online. We felt so at home. A well taken care of unit. It was a total relaxing time away to enjoy time off and family. It was well stocked and spacious. We would definitely book this condo again if we go to the beach. I loved watching the sun rise, and the ocean front. Thank you again.

We had a great time. A lot of things to offer. The pools were great. The tennis and basketball courts were awesome. The walk to the beach was short. All in all the place was great. My only complaint is that people leave dog poop on the board walk.

Beautiful property, wonderful views. A cozy get away stocked with everything you can possibly need. We enjoyed cooking in the kitchen, hanging out on the patio and relaxing while watching movies at night. The open concept allows you to see the amazing ocean view no matter where you are. Host was welcoming and friendly. Can’t wait to visit again.

4.0 / 5.0
The condo was very nice and clean and in a great location close to the beach. My only complaint and it was a big one for us was the master bed was SO uncomfortable. It had 2 huge, deep body impressions right where you would lay so that you would almost get stuck in them. Time to replace that matress!
5.0 / 5.0
We had kids, teenagers, and adults in our group. There was something for all ages. The proximity to the beach was perfect. Being able to walk to/from made it each to go back and forth throughout the day. The views of the beach and balcony were perfect for a the morning cup of coffee. The courts (basketball, pickleball, etc) were fun in the evenings (we brought balls with us). The place was spacious with a fully stocked kitchen, laundry in the apartment, and enough room for our party of 8 to each have their own space. Fantastic place and owner.

Great View, large and cozy space. Easy walk to the sand in the nice lighted boardwalk. Great spot in Port A!
5.0 / 5.0
Roomy for our group of 8. Kitchen was stocked with the necessities. Highchair and portable crib for the 18 month old as well as infant silverware. Enjoyed the gulf view from the balcony. About a 5 minute walk to the actual beach from the condo itself, but you can always drive to it and park on it with a beach pass. (It's gonna take you about 5 minutes to get there by car, but it's always an option for dragging beach chairs, toys, and beverages.)
Owner was kind and friendly with questions or concerns.
Would stay again.

Enjoyed our family outing (all family members over 60) with plenty of space & privacy when needed. The elevator was a big plus for some who didn’t want to use the stairs and the beds were comfortable. Very well stocked kitchen if you want to do your own cooking. Great communication with the owner.

One of the best if not the best VRBO property we’ve stayed at! Clean, roomy, perfect location. I couldn’t find the door code on my phone so had to text Jane. I was embarrassed, but she graciously responded immediately. When the reviews say kitchen is well stocked they aren’t kidding. Anything you could want. You won’t be disappointed.

This property is so beautiful with plenty of room. The kitchen is amazing and had everything needed and then some. Everything about it was nice…..good towels, sheets, pillows and we loved the dining area with a table large enough for all 8 of us. The decor is just so pretty! I felt like I could move in. The location was great too. The boardwalk is nice, and we enjoyed both pools as well. The property looked well kept with flowers blooming and common areas very clean. We can’t wait to come back!

We have been staying at Island Retreat for 30 years. This is, by far, the nicest unit we’ve stayed in, with four bedrooms with comfortable beds, great ocean views, and a spacious living area area. The elevator wasn’t working when we arrived (someone had overloaded it), but Jane worked diligently to get it back up and running. She was exactly what you’d hope a host should be. Five stars all the way!

This unit is excellent. We loved the location - quiet but close enough in town for a quick trip to the grocery store or to grab a bite to eat. Very comfortable beds/linens with cute decor. Living space was great for our family of 6 adults and 2 children. Wonderful views, clean and great communication. We will definitely stay here again. Highly recommend.

My sister, brother, and I, along with our families stayed at this awesome condo for a week for our family vacation. The condo was perfect! It had everything we needed, is in a great location in town, the onsite pool was perfect for after the beach each day, and the view on the evenings on the balcony was wonderful!

We had a great time in Port Aransas! The condo accommodated our group of 10 (5 adults and 5 kids) very nicely. We had a great time playing at the beach and the pool, both were just a short walk! I would definitely recommend this place if you are looking for a nice relaxing getaway!

The condo was even better than described. Very comfortable, very clean, very well equipped and organized. The property itself appeared to be well maintained and parking was easy. The elevator to our top floor was described well by the owner and detailed instructions were provided.
We highly recommend and plan to come back!

My family had a terrific stay here! The place was extremely clean and exactly as pictured. We loved having a third-floor view of the water and a very quick walk to the beach across the boardwalk. The balcony is spacious enough to hold a couple of lounge chairs plus several extras. The kitchen was perfect with lots of dishes and appliances but none of the previous-guest clutter that you find at a lot of rentals. The property has a tennis court and small playground as well as picnic tables and grills. We hope to stay again next summer!
