Come to your home away from home with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in Port Aransas, Texas, which can host 6. You will be wowed by the beautiful wood and comfortable furniture in this condo. The fully equipped kitchen means you have everything you need for your stay such as a drip coffee maker, appliances, dishes, basic pots, pans and utensils. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare fantastic meals for your family and friends. The large granite island has two barstools and overlooks a round table for four. Everyone can gather comfortably in the wide-open living room with a couch, recliner, two armchairs, and a flatscreen TV. The rustic colors and designs capture the Texas spirit. Metal dolphin artwork swims above the TV pointing the way to the private patio that overlooks the shared yard with a pool, playground, and partial views of the Gulf. After you check out all the art in the living area, head to the master bedroom (BR1) where two full-sized beds let everyone spread out. Relax and watch some TV. The attached full bathroom includes a hairdryer and tub/shower. The second bedroom (BR2) has two twin beds and, like every room, a ceiling fan to stay fresh. The second full bathroom has a fun fish theme which inspires you to cross the dunes on the nearby walkway to get to the ocean with a tub/shower unit. Amenities included: TV, wireless internet, access to BBQ pits and picnic areas, laundry facilities, 2 boardwalks to the beach, 2 shared pools. Located near downtown Port Aransas, you have easy access to the golf course, shopping, restaurants, and beach access with walkways over the dunes.

Great location
It was alright. We had problems getting in with the lock box. There was an actual problem with it. Nobody came that night they said they were going to send someone but nobody came. My husband actually found an unlocked window and crawled through. They came Monday morning. Also we had nothing but sheets in the master bedroom. No cover or blankets. I got them Monday. So all that is hit or miss and more of the property people issues. But one thing the owner could do to greatly improve the place is to get new mattresses. They aren’t that expensive any more and can do a lot for sleep quality.
Over all the location is great for the beach and pool.

Reviewer Comments:
The condo was what we wanted, not too fancy but definitely comfortable! The kitchen was well stocked, the tv worked and the beds were comfortable. proximity to the beach was good and we loved having a golf cart! That was fun. We toured port A and I have to say. WAY TO GO! The town looked new and fresh and everybody was very friendly.
