Sweet little condo in a 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: Great location. We adore Beachhead, the pool, the view, the pool house. Condo is small, but that’s what we were looking for. Kitchen and bathrooms are particularly tiny. We knew what we were signing up for and were very happy.

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: Took my daughter and 2 friends and stayed 3 nights, very happy with our condo and pool facilities. The beds were comfortable and furniture was nice except the couch is not very supportive and an area rug in the living room (not in pictures that I reviewed before booking but had been mentioned in other reviews) appears dirty and needs to be cleaned or replaced.

One of the best in Port Aransas

Beach Head Condos is one of the best condos in Port Aransas. My family and I travel to Port A at least 4 times a year and try to reserve a beach head condo. They are clean, convenient boardwalk and nice pool. My condo this time did need updated smoke alarms and I'd like the owner to know. Safety is extremely important to me when traveling with children. This location of our condo was definitely a prime location and I'm looking forward to returning before schools start. Thank you so much for all the great amenities available to us.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: We had a great time and are coming back next year. A couple things: the couch cushions were uncomfortable and the rug by the couch should either be replaced or removed. Overall, the unit was amazing. Everyone I talked with to make the reservation and answer my questions were all very helpful. The location was amazing and so many restaurants to choose from. It was just a great first-time experience. Thank you.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was peaceful and outstanding, the view was great, the people were great, and the place was not what we expected. It was better than we thought. Sure at night people on top were loud and heard everything at night, but we had to deal with it all our four days. Other than that, we went to the beach and the beach we were at. Thank you

Clean and comfortable

I’ve stayed at the beachhead for years so I know what to expect. Was happy to see the gameroom has been renovated. Unit 102 was clean and comfortable. I wish we had known what the view would be when we booked but proximity to the heated pool and playground was great. The walk to the beach is easy! The kitchen was well appointed except a blender. Bathrooms were clean and plenty of hot water. Would have been nice to have some basic salt and pepper available. We could hear the neighbors above quite a bit but like I said, I knew to expect that having come here for over 10 years. The beach head is great for its location to town, the beach. Highly recommend!

Don't do it!

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: There were no sheets for pull out sofa bed and not enough towels. I asked for some when we arrived, they came the next day. The parking was horrendous and I dare to say dangerous! I left a cosmetics bag with medicine in it, somehow it was never found.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: The location, pool and beach access were perfect. The condo was very clean and appropriately stocked with towels, etc. the sofa sleeper was aged and not a comfortable sleeping arrangement. At night when we returned to the condo we would have liked to watch TV, but the equipment was dated and not accessed easily. Parking was a bit odd also. Originally booking said there was an over flow area and we could ask for an additional parking pass but when I asked and one person said yes, the other said no. The confusion of parking passes came from what was posted on the site and then another explanation from the management company. The community was quiet, comfortable and perfect for a family vacation.

A vacay not so good vacay!!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Upon arriving in the rental it had a strong odor of some kind of chemical. I immediately called Management and asked if the rental had been fumigated? Management quickly said she didn't know that HOA takes care of that. My question was never answered as I would of expected. Management said they would send maintenance over to our rental. The maintenance man was very polite and courteous. When I asked him if he could smell what all four of us where smelling, he said "honestly, I can't smell anything because I just finished a cigarette"! Maintenance worker said he was called to spray our room with a spray that you refresh your car with. He proceeded to spray new car smell spray into vents which was overbearing and made the smell even worse. Maintenance worker also said HOA takes care of fumigation. I was hoping that they would have accommodated us by putting us in another rental. We loved Port Aransas and the beach!! Our stay in rental was not good. Sofa sleeper was not comfortable, king size bed needs to be replaced and sitting area in living room needed more comfortable sitting chairs.

Nicer than it looks in photos!

This was a perfect spot for my family and our best friends with two little boys under 1 year! Would book again. Could use some blackout curtains in the twin bedroom though. It was quite warm and super bright during the day and early morning.

The pots and pans were so cheap all my meals stuck to them. I left a very expensive MY PILLOW behind and the maid threw it in the trash instead of turning it in to the management team. I was livid I have never in my life stayed anywhere where the maid did not turn your left behind items in to a lost and found. I could not believe the maid threw my pillow away. Roaches were bad. Harry was very helpful and so was Lynn Grant

Hope the next people that stay here can enjoy it as much as we did!
