Bravo Boards and Bikinis!

Our family of 5 (plus our 4 legged family member) came for the Nee Year and had a blast! The property is spacious and great for entertaining! Just a short walk to the beach. Outdoor space was amazing, and we enjoyed hanging out down there as well! Beds were super comfy!

Ideal vacation home

We absolutely loved Boards and Bikinis! It was clean, nicely decorated, and had everything we needed and more. We enjoyed the downstairs patio, pool, and swings The location was central to all things in Port Aransas. Even though it wasn’t beach access or view, it had a true beachy vibe. With a golf cart or vehicle, you can be on the beach in 5 minutes. We would definitely stay again.

Christmas at the beach

Thank you for sharing your property with us for our Christmas holiday. Although really cold weather prevented us from enjoying all the amenities, we appreciated all this property had to offer and made the best of our winter in Port A. This is a very nicely appointed beach house.

I can't say enough good things!

This is such a great property. The location is superb - just a short golf cart drive to the beach and very close to local shops and restaurants. The house itself has a lot of space and is very clean and inviting. The best part about this place is the outdoor living space. When we weren't at the beach, we were in the private pool. I loved that you could watch TV while swimming and we could enjoy all of our meals at the picnic table. I would definitely stay here again!

Perfect beach house

We had a great time in Port A, and the house was great. We have a crawling baby so rugs and carpet in high traffic homes aren’t ideal, but I felt overall that it was very clean and well taken care of. The beds were super comfy! The pool was IDEAL for small kids, there is a little shallow area for them to hang out and the water is a bit warmer there. We had a really hard time getting a golf cart, so book ahead! It might have been due to Sandfest though. We would definitely stay here again.
