Great Spot!

Nice and quiet neighborhood. Nice and clean house (except for the bedding). Bedding was a little dusty downstairs. We had a family fishing get away and it was perfect.

Lots of Room

There is a lot of room to spread out. We were a party of 6. The deck in the backyard was really nice with a peaceful view and nice breeze. There were some laundry pods available. I'd recommend bringing some extra. The bathrooms had hotel size bottles shampoos and bars for your use. The location is a ten minute drive to the South Jetty. It would be nice if there were a long garden house in the back to wash things off of the patio to keep it dry. I would stay here again.

The Ideal Headquarters for your Port A Vacation

We enjoyed sitting on the covered deck watching the Herons, Egrets, and Sand Pipers wading in the back bay while sipping our coffee in the mornings. After a day at the beach, we were able to rinse off in the outdoor shower. The home is close to the beaches and great restaurants. This is a home away from home!

A lovely home

We do not go on anywhere on vacation without our four-legged family members, so we appreciated that the house is pet friendly. The fenced in yard has just enough space for them to run around. The outdoor shower was great for rinsing the sand off after a day at the beach. The house was clean, beds are comfortable, and there were plenty of towels, soaps, toilet paper, etc. We especially loved that an air fryer was included! My family loved every minute of our time at Lilac Sky.

Great stay!

The house was great for the six of us and my two small dogs. It was clean, comfortable and has a great view from the back deck. We would stay in this house again. Only thing I missed at this house, is that there isn’t an outdoor grill.

Great stay with a great view

The house was just as expected but with a great view of the salt flat. We enjoyed our down-time on the porch watching and listening to the birds. We could even see the ships passing in the channel.

It was nice does not sleep more than 7 people comfortable. The pull out couch is the most awful bed my nephew slept there and it is crooked and the mattress was horrible. Having everything we needed was awesome.. Otherwise loved the balconies and being so close to the pool

The many problems with this rental

Upon arrival at the property, the house was still being cleaned. Check-in time was 4:00 and we were not able to check in until 4:47 pm. While waiting outside for nearly an hour, we called the property management company and were told that someone would be calling us back regarding this matter. We never received a callback. Upon going into the home, the house was not thoroughly cleaned. There was a lot of dog hair, one of the beds did not have sheets on it and the backyard had a lot of dog poop in it. The coffee pot in the kitchen was broken. We called the property management to have them bring another one. It took 2 days for them to deliver it. The water pressure was awful in all bathrooms. The kitchen faucet only put out lukewarm water. The master bedroom closet ceiling was full of mold. The water hose in the front yard was also broken. Vacasa was called several times. There was a very long waiting period before some assisted us on the line. They would submit a ticket/message to the property management. Management would text us back but not respond promptly. We were very disappointed that the home was not ready at 4:00pm. Someone should have contacted us regarding this matter, but nobody did. Instead we got a text message saying that our concern has been addressed. I don’t see how, because nobody EVER called us. Overall, this rental was disappointing.

Smoothest rental ever!

This was the perfect sibling beach getaway trip. The house was ready early, clean and came with everything that we needed! The mosquitoes were a bit of a bummer but the house itself was perfect! Comfortable bedding, great living space and the washer and dryer were so convenient! Thank you so much! 5 stars!

Spring break 2023

Beautiful home in a wonderful location! Close enough to the beach to enjoy and just far enough from the craziness of after hours spring breakers. Our family had a wonderful time together making memories and just relaxing. Kitchen was well stocked with the utensils we needed to cook our meals, washer and dryer was a plus. Overall this house was perfect and we will definitely recommend to our friends.

Excellent spot!

We stayed here through the recent “arctic blast”! As such, we didn’t spend as much time outside as we would have liked. The property could use a good deep clean (the bathtub needs a round of Draino) and a bit of indoor aesthetic maintenance. Overall though the location was perfect and we loved the layout and decorations! The kitchen could use a few more items and seemed very bare bones; however, it was nice to have a decent assortment of spices for cooking!

Very disappointed never again

The floors were weak and you felt like you coulìd fall through. The rails by the stirs at the garage was broken big hazard. The tile on the floors was peeling up causing you to trip. Dog hair was all over the couches and floors had not been cleaned. The 1/2 bath drips condinsation and the toilet tissue holder is broken for the price I was very disappointed with our stay.

Overall, this was a nice place to stay.

We stayed during the week so it was not as expensive as it is on weekends. If we had stayed on the weekends/on-season when the price is higher, it may not have been worth the money as I think we could have paid a comparable price for something closer to the beach that is a bit newer/cleaner, and with more amenities. The pros: very spacious, with a good layout for multiple families with kids. Large dining room table and big kitchen made meal prep and eating together enjoyable. The back porch and it’s views were gorgeous. Lots of breezes, and no bugs! We really appreciated the outdoor shower and water hose is it made getting rid of the beach sand easy. Master bathroom, with the large walk-in shower and rainfall showerhead was a lovely. The location of this home is about a seven minute drive from Port Aransas public beach access, with very nice beaches. The shared swimming pool in the condo community was refreshing and beautiful! The cons: though it was clear that the house had been cleaned before our check in, it still left something to be desired - this home has been well loved, and received a lot of wear and tear. There were many dirt/stains/smudges on the doors, walls, cabinet fronts, as well as the couches indoors and outdoors. The floors were dirty when we arrived. There were also not as many extra linens as we had hoped: just enough beach towels, but no extras so we had to wash them every night; there were not extra blankets, so we found ourselves a bit chilly at night! The kitchen was minimally stocked with cups plates, and cooking essentials, all of the pots and pans were quite old - peeling and/or ceramic coating peeling off of all of them.
