Imagine waking up every day with the warm sun, sandy beaches, and ocean waves just a few steps away. That's exactly what you'll get when you choose Palmilla Beach Resort as your vacation destination. The beach boardwalk is just a short walk from your stay, and downtown Port Aransas is only a quick drive away, offering plenty of dining, shopping, and entertainment options. On days when you don't feel like venturing too far, you can always enjoy the resort's shared pool or fitness center.
Enjoy access to incredible amenities, including two elegant resort-style pools that are heated during our winter season. A designated area at the beach with food services and air-conditioned bathrooms. During the summer, poolside cabanas, golf carts, beach chairs, and umbrellas are available to rent via Guest Services.
Sip sweet tea and enjoy the warm breeze on the private patio as you listen to community concerts during the summer. Inside, beach-chic decor and laid-back furniture make the living room extra welcoming and the kitchen is perfect for preparing dinner for family and friends with its marble countertops and stainless steel appliances.
With four bedrooms to choose from, everyone is sure to be comfortable and content with the room's central air-conditioning, soft linens, and tasteful decorations. A private washer/dryer and scenic balcony round out the home's magnificent amenities.
You will find yourself wanting to return every summer to create more lifelong memories at The Good Life!

We loved our stay at The Good Life! It is very spacious, has comfortable beds (which can be hard to find in rentals) and was perfect for two families. We will definitely be back!

Amazing trip
Layout was fantastic- kids rooms up stairs, adults can hang out on the mail level.
Plenty of storage - had absolutely everything we needed kitchen wise - beds were very comfy - tons of garage space
Great location between both pools and short golf cart drive over the bridge to the beach
Could not have picked a better place!!

Long weekend getaway
This rental was beautiful, clean and perfectly located. We were able to comfortably fit the whole family and eat dinner together every night using the beautiful dining table that is provided. We loved it. We will be back.

Weekend escape
We loved the house. We didn’t use the kitchen, but it had everything you would need to make lunch or dinner. Thank you for allowing us to decompress in such a lovely home.

Great family vacation!
3 generations and we had enough space for all! Pools were great, really clean and nicely equipped! It will be nice to see what will be offered in the common areas when the community is finished.
Only advice, if you manage with a small vehicle -do it! The parking is extremely tight!

Great house!
Highly recommend “The Good Life” house! It was very spacious and was beautifully decorated. Had all the amenities you would need. Just a quick walk to the pool and the beach. We used the VIP beach service which was super convenient. There was construction in the neighborhood but it was not loud or disruptive. We had a 10month old baby with us and it didn’t wake her. Will
Definitely come stay again!

Great home. Pictures don’t do it justice
Brand new home. Great layout. Plenty of space for everyone, our kids just loved the bunk room. Kitchen was a nice place for everyone to gather. Only real “didn’t like” is the master bedroom has a glass door for the balcony with 0 blinds/shades/curtains. Sun was early and brutal and you’re on display for the world to see. We had to makeshift a sheet in the door to help out. But that’s minor. House was terrific, and we’d stay again in a heartbeat.
