Everything was great. Very clean and convenient location for our weekend.

It was a great location and cute little condo that was accommodating to all our needs!
4.7
The property was very clean and had everything we needed to make our stay a relaxing one. Loved that the pool was right across the way from where we were staying. Made it easier to go back and forth when we needed something. Would definingly book again.
4.7
Easily accessible to everything we wanted to do. Quiet area...the space was perfect for 3 of us. The only thing they could try to work on would maybe put shade over the pool or a water sprinkler feature on it to cool the water a bit. After the heat of the sun the pool did get too hot to be usable till after the sun goes down. But this is probably a problem for most pools in this area.
4.7
Some friends and I along with my daughter came for a long weekend for my daughter’s birthday. Everything with the stay was ok except the mattresses were so hard. I have stayed here before which is why I booked it again. The only other thing I would change would be to change out the shower curtain liners, they were still moldy from my last stay. Overall I would book it again.

Clean place, has a pool also so close to beach

I’ve known about Port A for a long time and wanted to stay close to the beach near the Sandcastle. We booked this great rental due to the reviews and the proximity to what we wanted and loved it. The location and the apartment are exactly what we wanted. Very friendly staff that we dealt with via phone and texting. We are going to be looking to book this again next year. Thanks for the wonderful memories and experiences!!

It was an amazing location, communication was great! Pool was good, could use some shade. Good stay for two couples!
4.7
Like the location and the layout of the rental. Could use a small vacuum as the broom was not that good for sweeping sand. Condo floor was still full of sand when we checked in. Could use a new hose outside. The hose kinks up and has holes. It was difficult to wash all the sand off.
4.7
This property worked well as we were out on the beach all day Saturday and could just cook Saturday night. Sunday we fished on a charted boat then came back showerd and chilled. Its location is great! Close to beach and restaurants. Both rooms had showers and toilets. Living room small but loveseat and couch. Kitchen was awesome! Washer dryer good. Floors could have been a little cleaner. And bedroom nightstands needed repairs or replacing. Also in one bedroom the satellite box was behind TV so you had to get up out of bed to change channels.
All this was reported to management company so hopefully will be resolved. But overall beds comfortable, bathrooms good and was a good place to stay for the money. I would stay there again!

Reviewer Comments:
I read thru the reviews as I always do prior to booking and can say they are fairly accurate. Still no pizza cutter to be found, LOL, but the cutlery set on the counter next to the fridge more than made up for that! Like most units on the island, the space is tighter than shown in the pics but three guys fit just fine for a fishing trip. The sleeper sofa was even semi comfortable but got even better once we added the air mattress we brought along.

It was everything we needed and having the pool so close was a plus. The location was perfect. The only thing is the bed in one room was super squeaky. Comfy though.
4.7
The queen beds are rock hard. Our youngest slept on the pullout couch and you could feel nothing but springs! She put pillows under the sheets to sleep on to be a bit more comfortable. The pillows were stained brown with i don’t know what, thank God there were pillowcases. Make sure to bring your essentials. They could have provided travel size toiletries, salt & pepper or oil to cook but they provide the bare minimum!!
We won’t stay again, not worth the price for the quality of stay.

Condo was very clean and kitchen was fully equipped except there was not a pitcher to make tea. Dishwasher was under cabinet and I had could not turn it on but I am sure it was just that I didn't know how.We rented a golf cart which I highly recommend as that is the way to get around in Port A.Condo was very quiet since there were only 2 other units rented.
4.7
Nice quite location. Floors were dirty, top of fridge and dryer is very dusty. Looks like it’s never been cleaned in a while. Need some maintenance. Bedroom by the washer, the door is hard to close. It drags on the floor pretty good. The other bedroom in the bathroom the floor is falling in. If you were to jump you would fall through the floor. No adjustment to the air conditioner. Stayed on 68 degrees. We had a blast in Port Aransas. Unit needs some minor attention.

This property location was awesome. It was clean & very close to the beach. The only 2 things I would recommend is that the owner gets new mattresses. It says it was remodeled & it looks to be but they did not invest in comfortable mattresses so we did not sleep well. The second thing is that they did not have a pizza pan or pizza cutter. I must say this was a first for us because every property we have rented had those. Other than that it was great!

Decided to take our family to Port Aransas for Spring Break. We loved the property! Super clean and a great space for our family of 5! We knew we needed something bigger then a hotel room so our 3 kids could have room to move around and this was the perfect size.

Husband, brother, sister-in-law and I spent 5 days/4 nights. Condo was the perfect size for the 4 of us. Very clean, close proximity to the beach and all the shops. Already planning a trip for next summer. Staff was super friendly and helpful!

I absolutely loved everything about it. The condo was great with the pool. My kids never got bored. My only problem was the washing machine did not work. When I was finally able to get door unlocked, I had to squeeze out all the towels by hand to dry. Other than that, I couldn’t have asked for any better. Can’t wait to do it again at the same place.
