My beach buddies and I have stayed here multiple times, and we love this place! It is equipped with everything you need in the kitchen and bathrooms. The only negatives would be we saw a couple of roaches. The front hose needs replacing, it is hard to use. Regardless of that, we will be back, it’s clean and comfortable!

The house was clean and just a short distance from the beach. The only warning I would give is that parking is tight if you have larger vehicles but other than that, this is a great place to stay!!

Nice, small condo. Right on Beach Access 1A ..about 10 minutes walk to the beach .

Very accommodating staff. Maintenance responded timely to issue experienced with mattress in order to make it more comfortable for my pregame DIL. Overall we enjoyed the condo very much. The only somewhat negative for us was the live streamed TV service … not a huge fan, but we adapted and were not at the beach to watch TV anyway. Also, the dryer settings seemed a bit confusing but we eventually figured it out! Always a great experience in Port A!

Great trip!
This unit had everything we needed. Kitchen was stocked with all the needed cookware. Towels were fluffy and new. I would suggest some type of flooring over the bare concrete floors. Constantly felt like they were sandy and dirty no matter how many times we swept or mopped and with a granddaughter that is just crawling, it was a concern. Location was great! Parking lot is very cramped. We took an F-150 Ford pick up and an Expedition and it was a very tight squeeze in the driveway. The one car garage is not part of the deal on this one. Downstairs was smaller than the pictures seemed. Overall, we would probably stay here again.

The description of this property is not really accurate. It’s alot smaller than expected. We found dirty and wet dishes in the cupboards, a fuse box on the patio being held shut by a board braced against our picnic table which must have just been painted because when you sat by it it left paint on your cloths

We had plenty of room for all eight of us , we have been going to Port Aransas every June usually for 4-7 days for the last 20 years. My family did enjoy the stay except for a few things one of the upstairs full size beds had a worn mattress, every vent was dirty and moldy the pans in the cabinets were still dirty and greasy , there were no extra blankets to use on the couches to watch TV and the water hose to rinse off the sand had a hole in it and the coffee maker was broken . It’s the little things that matter.

Check in was a breeze! Any email or message was quickly responded to. We had 9 people and we more than enough room. The three full bathrooms were perfect to allow everyone to shower without long wait. Plenty of towels and travel toiletries. Having a washer and dryer was great! We definitely took advantage of not having stinky clothes from fishing. The kitchen is FULLY stocked with plates, bowls, serving platters, cookware, utensils! A big back deck with chairs and propane grill. The beach is an easy walk away. Just over the hill. It was very peaceful and comfortable. I highly recommend this property! We’re already planning our next trip back!

This is a great location, walkable to the beach. There are four bedrooms, so pretty roomy; however, the sofa bed is extremely uncomfortable - you could actually feel the springs right on your body. My daughter put her yoga mat over the top, but then abandoned the bed completely for the downstairs couch when a tree roach ran over her. The batteries in the gaming station controllers were dead and none were available to replace, so we couldn't use it when we wanted to on a rainy morning. We found a card game, so played that.

The inside of the property was great! Outside could have been better, but we were at the beach everyday so it didn't bother us too much. The management person who gave us lockbox instructions and directions to property could have been a little nicer. The maintenance and front office person were great and helpful.

The size of was good for a group composed of adults and children as there were 2 gathering sites. If using just one rather small. Eating was a challenge as table sat 4 and bar 2 for inside dining. Outside view was of a fence but numerous chairs. Kitchen equipment should be updated and slight issue with cockroches but they were dying.

We stayed here last minute for spring break. Two families and there was plenty of room to spread out. Everything was clean and current- I would definitely stay here again and recommend the management company- it was a smooth trip.Two thumbs up!**Side note - because it's on the beach access road, it's the main road to the spring break crowd so just be fore-warned. It didn't bother us at all, but I could see it would if you were wanting to avoid that crowd.

I and three friends stayed at the condo early in Feb 2014. The weather disappointed but the condo did not. It was the perfect size for us. And it was within walking distance to the beach. Nice quiet neighborhood but easy drive to town. Not much view but the beds were comfortable, the place was clean and we loved having a laundry room. Come with laundry soap, paper products and garbage bags as there were very little of some and none of others. Check in and out was quick and painless. Great place and a great price.

Overall it's a great experience staying in Portaescapes. We were three families went as a group and this condo was perfect for us. Closer to the beach is a BIG plus. The Management is simply great . They made everything very comfortable.It would have been still better if we got access to the garage. WiFi was very poor.

We enjoyed our stay. I don’t believe this house could sleep 12 comfortably; unless there were more young kids than adults. We had 9 people, and it was perfect!
The loft upstairs was a plus being a good place for our teenagers to hang out.
Great location, and clean cozy condo overall.

We rented this property to celebrate my daughter’s high school and college graduation. The location was wonderful as we were a couple of blocks from the beach. We rent golf carts and had an absolute blast. We had plenty of room for the party of 12. Very cute, clean property with a swimming pool two doors down. Would highly recommend to anyone with a good size group wanting close to the beach.
