Close to sailing, surfing, and more, this smoke-free cottage brings it all within reach. Jump into your car and make short work of the 11-minute drive to Port Aransas Beach or the 4-minute drive to Palmilla Beach Golf Club (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

Spend some time at the beach (enjoy the direct beach access!), relax by the outdoor pool, or sip a drink on the balcony of this cottage, which also features a BBQ grill. As for the great indoors, you can come inside and enjoy the free WiFi, TV, and library.

As you settle into this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom rental, you'll find a living room, a dining area, and air conditioning. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a dishwasher, as well as a microwave, cookware, and a blender. And there's a dryer, so you can even pack a bit lighter.
