Close to surfing, this smoke-free vacation home brings it all within reach. There's convenient onsite parking, so you can leave your vehicle behind and let your feet make short work of the 3-minute walk to Ellis Memorial Library or the 9-minute walk to Port Aransas Birding Center.

After you return, you can unwind at the beach (enjoy the direct beach access!), chill by the outdoor pool, or sip a drink in the hot tub; you may also like the deck or patio. For a change of scenery, come inside and enjoy the free WiFi and TV.

A living room, a dining area, and air conditioning are featured at this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom rental. Bathroom amenities include 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 there's a dryer, so you can even pack a bit lighter.
