Great place horrible beds

Everything in the property was outstanding except for the beds. They may have been the worst beds we have ever tried to sleep on. They were lumpy, squeaky, noisy and it was difficult to get a good nights sleep.

Great Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Pleasant little condo. In great need of serious deep clean. Sofa had a nasty smell and was stained. Please replace the microwave, the back is rusted through. Not that it mattered a great deal - but the flooring was terribly uneven, like walking through a "fun house". The entry door was difficult to open, not a keypad problem. It often took us 6-7 tries just to get into the condo. Understand humidity and swelling, but this was a real inconvenience. Saw one roach, but this is TX. The A/C worked great.

I wanted to give this place a better review

Great location, very nicely decorated, the check in and out process was a breeze, we had everything we needed. The bad... the house didn’t seem as if it was cleaned properly before we arrived. Sand all over the floor, smears and finger prints on everything, hair all over. But the BIGGEST problem, cockroaches! We killed quite a few inside the house and couldn’t enjoy any time on the patio because they were all over the place. I saw previous reviews regarding roaches and assumed it would be a problem that had been handled. Clearly It was not. I’ve stayed in port Aransas many times and have never once had to sleep with roaches. I’m not one to ever leave a negative review, but I’d hate for others to have to deal with the same problem that my guests and I had to.

July 4th stay

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My stay was nice, the space was just right and There were enough towels in the room which was good. The biggest headache, every time we cooked the fire alarm would go off due to no ventilation. I didn’t realize there was no pool so that was a disappointment. Other than that my stay was good.

Back to our favorite place to vacation after the storm

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved everything about this cottage , location,cleanliness,amenities and ease to navigate around town. Was also surprised at how much work had been done in about a year from the storm. The only thing that was annoying was the mattress it was that old style bed frame that made terrible noise getting in and out of bed

Cute Cabin, Very Clean, Great location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We LOVED staying at the All Seasons Condo Unit E. The decor was adorable and was the perfect size for our family of 4. We enjoyed the location - walking distance to the beach and the main street with restaurants & coffee bar. The cabin was very clean! My only recommendation would be to have a place to hang wet/sandy swimsuits/towels and also to have portable fans for the bedrooms. Picking up and dropping off the keys was very easy and convenient.

Cute Beach Cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed here for a bachelorette party and it was absolutely perfect. There were 4 of us, so 2 to a room. The location is great, we were able to walk to both the beach and bars/restaurants. Although, a golf cart would have been a nice addition to the trip. Decor is adorable and the beds were comfy! If you plan on cooking, be sure to bring your own spices and oil.

The dining table was the perfect place for us to gather while getting our hair and makeup done! Super clean! The only downfall is the parking, limited spaces. I would totally stay here again!!

Whooping Crane get-a-way

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very nice, clean, comfortable cottage. Decor was very pretty. Everything was just as advertised. Well managed. We would stay here again and would recomend to others. We visited Port Aransas for the Whooping Crane Festival and really enjoyed the tours we took to see the wildlife. We dined at Kody's, Moby Dicks, and Spaghetti Works. All were good but we liked Kody's the best. Gave 4 stars for condition because the dishwasher was not attached to the cabinet and it tipped whenever the the racks were rolled out for loading/unloading.

July 2017 Port A Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: If you care about quality, I DO NOT recommend this place. Gross, stained, body prints and long hair in our bed!! This cottage is adorable, but very poor quality! Uneven floors, none of the doors are square, have an awful groan each time you open and close them. That was extremely annoying! NO space in the bathroom. Difficult getting ready in the mornings. Beds are TERRIBLE! Perfect location, easy to everything. Nicely decorated, like a little beach cottage. A/C works well. Fairly quite. Nice shower. We love Port A but will NOT stay here again.
