This was our first visit to Port Aransas. We took our granddaughter to the beach for her first time. We loved our condo and the location to the beach was perfect! Just a short walk and we were on the beach. The room was spotless and the beds were so comfortable. We can’t wait to come back and visit again. Thank you so much for a wonderful vacation!

Everything was as advertised. The unit was very clean and well stocked. Great for a small family. It’s in town so it’s close to everything. I rented a golf cart and it was delivered to the office for easy pick up (I was the only driver so delivery was necessary). The unit has its own private beach boardwalk. The pool was large, clean and very close to the unit. We would definitely stay here again.

The accommodations were exceptional! It was the perfect size condo for us and have everything we needed. The walk to the beach in the morning we beautiful, especially is you were up as the sun was rising. We loved sitting on the back porch and listen to the ocean waves. The online reservation process was user friendly and the easiest that I have ever experienced. Renting the golf cart was easy as well and the office staff were just fantastic! Everyone was so friendly. We didn't want to leave but we will definitely be back to visit soon. Thanks for making our stay a great one!! :-)
