We had a great stay at Lost Colony. The location was perfect — just a short walk to a beautiful, quiet stretch of beach. The house was clean and comfortable, and the deck was a nice place to relax after a day by the water.
Have stayed at several VRBO homes in Port A over the years, and this has become our favorite. Great location with direct gulf view. Clean, comfortable with all the basic necessities.
The property was clean and had everything we needed for a week's trip. The location of the beach access was perfect. Gulf view with easy in and out access.Far enough away from local stores and businesses to feel isolated but still close for eateries and grocery supplies.
I’m torn on this review, the place itself was just as listed, great location right in the beach, the house itself was great but there small things throughout the trip that added up to me deciding I won’t book this place/management company again.
We had an amazing time! The house is perfectly located to the beach and pool. The master bedroom view is amazing as well as the view from the balcony. We couldn't ask for a better view and location!
Had a great time with my wife and kids (9 and 6). Great house and proximity to the beach. Will go back!

My girlfriends and I have been going to Port A for many years and this is by far our favorite place that we have stayed. It is right on the beach and next to the pool. It was clean and spacious, decorated nicely with comfortable furniture. Also a large balcony to enjoy seeing and hearing the ocean. A nice touch was that the host left a thank you gift! We can’t wait to go again! Needless to say this was the perfect place for our girls getaway!
We were looking for a nice place with ocean views and direct beach accces. Lost Colony delivered everything we were looking for with comfort and ease. Property was clean and comfortable . We will be coming back again! Highly recommend Lost Colony ! relaxing beach experience

We had a great time. Fantastic location. Easy access to beach with great views from the house. There is a lot of stairs with turns if you're traveling with an older group. Master and master bathroom were very very nice. No issues with other areas of the house, just not quite as fancy as we thought it would be from the pictures. Parking is tight if you're in pick ups but the over flow parking is close and convenient.

Great view of the beach! Felt like we were right on the water. The house was great, clean and perfect for our group. The community pool was right next to the house. You could lay in bed and look at moon light on the water, storms roll in and sunrises in the morning. We really enjoyed it. Highly recommend!
The house was in the perfect location. Direct access to the beach and pool you couldn't pick a better spot. It was well maintained, clean and provided everything you need to accommodate a large family. It is three levels so be prepared for stairs, it was well worth the beach view and privacy. We did have an issue with the bed count but when we notified the management they resolved quickly. Thank you for a beautiful home away from home! This property is well worth it!
it and provided an amazing vir
Its a little beach house located right on the shore within a gated community of similar homes. The location is good, with the ocean visible from the terrace. However, the view is partially obstructed by lush green bushes, which also attract quite a few mosquitoes.
The boardwalk is surrounded by greenery, and while I was initially concerned about snakes in the area, thankfully, I didn’t see any. One downside is that there’s no shower on the ground floor, but there is one on the boardwalk, though it’s also surrounded by the same greenery and mosquitoes. Additionally, the entrance had quite a few ant hills.
The house itself was clean, and the furniture was comfortable. The kitchen was well-equipped with almost all the necessary utensils, though it would have been nice to have some basic items like salt and pepper on hand. I also noticed there were no extra throws or blankets; each bed only had a thin sheet-like blanket.
Overall, our stay was enjoyable thanks to the beachside location and reasonable price, but I don’t think I would choose to stay in this house again.
Access to the beach is great, and the view is amazing.

We loved out stay! Very close to the beach and tremendous views. The king sized bed mattress needs to be replaced, but other than that we were very pleased with the home. Would definitely stay here again.
Well-appointed, and location location location. Steps from the beach. Easy access to everything we needed: HEB, airport to pick up a family member, Mustang and Goose Island State Parks, nice restaurants, coffee shop.Plenty of plates, utensils, glasses and serving dishes. Comfortable furniture, everything in good shape. Nice beds.Easy communications w/texts, info on fridge.Only negatives: ice maker wasn't working but we didn't need any. Wish there was a small pantry(even free-standing) to put our food; kinda covered up all the counters. This close to the beach, we didn't care. Great stay.
