Just a short distance from the ocean, this pet-friendly vacation home lets you experience it all. Jump into your car and make short work of the 6-minute drive to Port Aransas Beach or the 3-minute drive to Mustang Island Beach (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

After you return, unwind on the balcony and enjoy the outdoor furniture. For a change of scenery, come inside and enjoy the digital TV.

A sitting area, a dining area, and air conditioning are featured at this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom rental. Bathroom amenities include free toiletries, towels, and toilet paper. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a microwave and cookware. And because there's a washer/dryer, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
