Sun-soaked days by the pool, salt air on the balcony, and the kind of unhurried evenings that only a coastal escape delivers — Yahwaves is built for the way you actually want to vacation in Port A. Tucked inside the golf cart zone, the home puts you a short stroll from Port Aransas Beach, with the marina, seafood joints, and souvenir shops of the lively downtown stretch just a quick cart ride away. The backyard is the heart of the home. A private pool anchors the space, ringed with loungers for sunbathing and a covered patio for shaded breaks. There's a putting green for some friendly competition, a firepit for after-dark gatherings, and an outdoor dining table that pulls everyone together once the burgers come off the grill. The outdoor shower means sandy feet stay outside — a small but mighty detail when you've been at the beach all day. Up on the balcony, mornings start slow with coffee and a view over the neighborhood. Inside, the open-concept main floor flows easily between the kitchen, dining area, and living room, all wired with a Sonos sound system to set the mood. The dining table comfortably seats ten, so whether it's a long lunch, a board game tournament, or planning tomorrow's fishing charter, there's room for everyone. The kitchen is fully equipped for anything from coffee runs to full family dinners. Each of the four bedrooms comes with its own ensuite, which is a real luxury when you've got a full house. Two king bedrooms each offer their own ensuite with a walk-in shower. A third bedroom features a queen and an ensuite with a shower/tub combo. The bunk room — two twin-over-twin bunks plus its own TV and ensuite — is the unofficial kids' clubhouse. Practical perks round it out: in-home washer and dryer, parking for up to six vehicles, and boat parking on-site for anyone planning to chase redfish in the Gulf or cruise the bay. When you're ready to venture out, you've got options. Port Aransas Beach is a 14-15 minute walk away. Mustang Island State Park is a 13-16 minute drive south for quieter stretches of shoreline and birdwatching. The Port Aransas Nature Preserve sits a few minutes up the road for boardwalks through coastal wetlands. And the marina district — where seafood spots like Virginia's on the Bay and Grumbles serve up the day's catch — is an easy golf cart hop. Whatever rhythm your trip takes, Yahwaves keeps you close to all of it. AvantStay provides a personalized hospitality experience to elevate your stay.
