Cozy Villa

Choose Shadow Palm Villas because they are pet friendly. This was our third stay. Any issues with your unit, management is very prompt to correct issue. Villas are within walking distance to beach or short ride by bike or vehicle; plus close to grocery store, restaurants, gas station & my favorite Coffee Waves. Very nice stay.

Welcoming!

This villa was so nice. It is very well equipped as it had good cookware and cooking utensils as I have stayed in other rentals where I have had to travel with a good knife and pans. Very spacious, nicely decorated and tile floor throughout making it easy to keep up after our pets. The host was so responsive and quick with communications too. The swimming pool was so inviting and well maintained. Just an overall wonderful, quiet, serene place to stay.

AC's could have been better

We loved our stay, it was very well kept and professional. The only problems we had were the AC's. On our first night, we had trouble sleeping from the heat. But other than that , it's a great place to stay at!

Port Aransas

Location was easy to find, parking was great, and the inside was perfect for us. The actual location is more like a good 15 minute walk to the beach. And on a hot day with all your beach gear, there and back, 15 minutes is too far. Renting a golf cart to help with all the gear and kids is a must.

This place is a Gem!

We loved everything about this villa in Port A! It was nice and spacious (more spacious than I feel the pictures make it). It was nice and clean and the decor is simple and tasteful. The beds were very comfy, too! The area is quiet, except for the sound of the ocean when you step outside - loved that part! The beach is only a few blocks away, and a nice drive. We had our golf cart and took it there. And...they provided a space and extension cord so that we could charge our battery on the golf cart - a great, extra plus for us! We were there over Thanksgiving, and the nice spacious kitchen allowed us plenty of room to prepare and eat our traditional meal. I would definitely stay again if I plan to be in Port A again!

Another Great Beach Trip

We love everything this property offers! The management is excellent as well as their communication. We were very comfortable in Unit 5. We cooked some great meals and enjoyed the pool during our stay. Sun setting views from the pool are pretty special! And the bonus? Our fur babies were welcome and it was fun for them, too. Thank you, Jacenda, for accommodating us like you did. You made our trip just that much more special!

Great pandemic get away spot

The villas were ideal for 2020. Walking distance from beach (tho I recommend renting a golf cats if you are staying multiple days/have lots of beach gear). Social distancing was easy. No condo crowds or shared railings/doorknobs to worry about. Grills and pool were clean. Property seems fairly new and is well maintained. Definitely coming back!

About the host

Host profile image
Shadow Palm is our family's idea of going to the beach to relax, play, have fun and spending high quality time with family, friends and even business associates.

Why they chose this property

Shadow Palm really does reflect what my family likes in a vacation home...you have privacy. Each villa is a stand-alone home. Only Shadow Palm guest can use or even see the pool area. Each villa has everything you need for cooking, socializing and having fun.

The grounds are beautiful and you can hear the ocean, so whether your vacation group just includes your immediate family or several families in multiply villas, there is enough room and space to relax and enjoy the breeze.

What makes this property unique

Built To Have Fun and Relaxation:
The resort style pool is great to cool off or for sun bathing. It is also a comfortable place to enjoy dinner and cocktails. The pool area has outdoor grills and cabanas.
