The house was amazing, especially huge main kitchen/dining area well stocked with anything you would need. All was clean as expected. There were a few loud neighbors partying on the balcony which didn’t bother us but upset one of the other neighbors to a point he was yelling threatening to call the cops. They were all much quieter after that. We enjoyed our stay.
We enjoyed our stay. It was very comfortable with plenty of room for our family. It’s walking distance from the beach. Having 2 kitchens and 2 refrigerators is a plus. The elevator was great for hauling stuff upstairs, but know that it doesn’t go to the 3rd floor and it is located in the garage. It was difficult for my mother who uses a cane to use.
This place had everything you would need for a great stay. Very clean. Great layout.

Always a good experience with this Company.
This property was great for family of 12. Large dining table was a selling point so we could all gather for family dinner. Sleeping on all levels allowed for alone time. Super close to beach by foot or golf cart. Two car garage gave us space for all our beach gear. Grelocation to shops and places to

Reviewer Comments:
House was super clean and we loved having an elevator to bring all our things to the second floor. Any issues we had the management took care of right away.
We took a group of ten 17-18 year old boys for a beach trip before they start their senior year. The house was perfectly set up to accommodate our group. The kitchen was the hub of activity and it had every utensil, gadget and cooking item we needed. The location allowed the kids to split their time between beach and pool easily. We rented 2 golf carts through the company recommended by the VRBO and I can’t recommend that enough - it was a great experience and really enhanced our trip.
This house and it's location couldn't have been better. I've rented many beach houses, although never in Port Aransas. The elevator was a game changer. When you stay for a week, there are a lot of items that need to be brought upstairs and the elevator made that a breeze! It doesn't have a pool on the property, but the community pool is close and we used it daily.
The house was furbished with everything we needed and we couldn't have been more comfortable. I would rent this house again.

We rented this unit as a Mother’s Day and Father’s Day present for our parents. Both my sister’s and my families stayed with them. Great location, the elevator was a great help for my dad. My only complaints were the garbage disposal operation, and the cooktop. I looked for a good hour for the garbage disposal switch to no avail. I finally embarrassingly called the management company. Even the electrician was confused until he called his supervisor. Turns out you have to put the stopper in the drain and turn it. The cooktop buttons are very sensitive, and we got an error displayed at one point. I googled the repair, and had to reset the breaker (in garage). Not a huge deal at all, just FYI for future guests. Great location, clean, comfortable. Plenty of room.

Reviewer Comments:
We chose this rental house because it was advertised as having an elevator. That was the deciding factor in deciding on a house for a reunion of mobility-impaired 70 and 80-year olds. When we arrived on Sunday, the elevator would not work. We called the help line and a repairman was sent out. He was unable to fix the problem. We struggled to get our luggage and food items up the stairs and into the house. The elevator did not get fixed until Tuesday afternoon. 3 long days. And we just assumed that the elevator went to the top floor. No, it didn't. So here we have 11 elderly people trying and failing to climb the steps to the second and third levels. Very disappointing, and we would never have chosen a three story house if we had known the elevator would not work. The house itself is beautiful. It was very clean, well-equipped, and comfortable. It would have been the perfect house if the elevator was operational.

Great house and host!! Easy check in and check out!
We stayed here with 6 adults and 7 children and there was plenty of space. The kitchen had empty cupboards for our food and plenty of seating. Lots of dishes as well. The beds were comfy we enjoyed the balcony. We all enjoyed the house.
Great house with great location. The house was perfect for our group & we will be going back!

House was decent, although wasn’t completely cleaned when we arrived, appliances on second floor malfunctioned and could not use them, dishes in cabinet were not clean, could have used more disposable items (such as paper towels, toilet paper, dishwasher detergent, etc) but the walk to the beach was desirable.

Perfect house for family gathering!
This house is amazing for families and friends. All age limits. The elevator was a life saver for myself and my husband (in our 60's, with bad knees).The customer service was awesome... my granddaughter left an old stuffed animal behind, and for very sentimental reasons we had to get it back... they made sure to find and send it back!
We have a big family, enjoy space and comfort that can accommodate. A Shore Thing is a sure thing! It met every expectation. It was near the beach, clean, comfortable and simply a wonderful property. Thank you for having us!
