Perfect little cottage for a weekend getaway with husband & my fur babies! I think the outdoor private shower was my favorite cause it had long lasting hot water! The yard was safe and secure for my pets. We all felt safe and comfortable. The sunroom/screened in porch was my 2nd favorite but next time I will bring a fan for air flow. Communication with host 5 ⭐️

The efficiency has a cottage feel - but is attached to a small house. It has a separate driveway.
It is in a great location close to all the attractions of old Port A from food to beach to shops.
I had no issues and can recommend the accommodation.

Property was not as pictured. Beautiful wide door featured in most interior pics has been replaced with narrow dark barred wooden door that lets little light into this mostly windowless studio.

First I want to say that this cottage was not a cottage feel at all. We got inside this rental and were inside a garage instead of a rental. This rental was very small for three people. We found spiders everywhere. Also the french doors were not very secure. The table wobbled a lot. The bathrooom was very small as well. we do not recommend this place for a rental.

This property was perfect for us as a couple on a week long stay in the Port Aransas area. We wanted a location fairly close to the beach and shops, yet the neighborhood felt very quiet. The house was on the small size, which we knew when booking, but there was also a small private outdoor space available and a screened porch. Several amenities were provided on our arrival which was appreciated so we could settle in right away without needing to shop. The kitchen was a great size for preparing our own meals when we wanted. The bed was comfortable. The management company was easy to communicate with and helped us arrange to pick up keys after hours. We loved our stay and would stay here again.

Overall the rental was adequate. A couple minor items such as no hand soap by the sink, only 2 bath towels provided(my wife uses 2 towels when she showers), it would have been nice to have a couple beach chairs provided. On a positive note we noticed the propane for the grill was empty and we called on a sunday morning and it was replaced within a couple hours. Thank You, we enjoyed our stay.

This was a very nice quaint cottage with old charm. It was quiet but then again it was during the week without party animals. The backyard was maintained with St. Augustine grass that was plush. It was perfect for our dog that loved it! I would go back to this rental in the future.

Had some pros and cons
Pros: short walk to the beach and drive-on access. Dog friendly-we stayed with our 2 dogs. Fenced in yard. Affordable. Kitchen was well stocked with enough to make breakfast, knife to cut a watermelon and Tupperware to store it. Very small unit but still doable for short weekend.
Cons: sleep was uncomfortable due to ac unit never feeling cool enough. Felt like there was sand in the bed immediately after getting into them, even after knocking the sand off my feet from the floors. Laundry facility had roaches all in it and we didn't even know where it was located at first. Water pressure in kitchen sink was probably less than 50%. Shower head had water coming out of all the cracks and seemed as if it were going to pop out of the wall if you weren't careful adjusting. Our check in was at 4. We got the keys at 3:55, got to the unit right after 4 and maid service was still there so we had to wait to get in. Baseboards, fans, AC vents all covered in dust.
Don't recommend for longer than a 2 night stay. We were just thankful to find a place on July4th weekend that was dog friendly, closer to the water, and affordable.

Cute place, nice amenities
Though a little smaller than expected we adjusted easily and LOVED our stay. We will likely book again on our next trip. The backyard was a wonderful perk and allowed our kids somewhere to play. Having access to laundry on site was definitely a perk.

We truly enjoyed our visit to Port A. The accommodations were extremely private and secure. Allowing our fur babies to accompany us and the ability to give them a private grassed and secure fenced in area was a major selling point for us. Updating the AC with a motel style unit would be great.

Excellent stay
Was a great property. Small/quant but it didn’t feel crowded. Nice bed, sleeper couch, nice kitchen amenities, nice bathroom. Everything we needed. Excellent location. Quiet too. If I had to pick a negative, would have liked a light in the screened in patio. Unless I couldn’t find it… All and all 10 outta 10 property.

This was a lovely little beach cottage. It was private, and the yard was perfect for our dog. Right in town, and close to many things! Additionally, the hosts were very responsive - we accidentally locked ourselves out, and were let in by maintenance quite quickly.

I am a property manager. I know the business. Problems happen. Having said that, the property manager walked off in mid-sentence as I was explaining there was no heat and it was 41 degrees in the unit.
The property management company should have checked the heat before check in. They blamed it on the owner. I do not recomend Port A Escapes.

Space too small
The place is fine for just 2 adults. It is too small for 4 adults and a pet. There was no space to walk around. The property should be advertised for 2 adults. And even though pet is welcome, my pet was confused and restless.

October in Port A!
We had a wonderful fall getaway to Port A. The cottage was just perfect. Clean and really cute! I loved the French Country decor. The outdoor area was great for relaxing and for our dog to run around in. Totally recommend this cottage and hope to stay here again!

It was fine, have stayed here before. Love the upgrades of the laundry room but the sleep number bed did not work, even with a new battery. The place was clean but was too warm when we got there. Had to crank the A/C down & use the extra fan to cool it down. There needs to be some type of lights outside, could see nothing & too many keys. We stayed here because of our dogs & the addition of the privacy fence was great as well as the location!

Perfect getaway place
This cottage was perfect for our fall getaway. Everything was clean and functional. I did not cook during our stay but did use the fridge. The fenced yard area was a nice to have since we did have our dogs with us. The entrance could use lighting - it was extremely dark in the evening.
