*Tropical storm time. Yes, it is a part of life here, but we understand and know that some guest get a little nervous. The good thing is we are on the 2nd floor, so we just watch the cars and golf carts wash around. "IF" a storm does come to the coast our standard cancellation policy will be in effect unless there is a mandatory evacuation by the city of Port Aransas. If there is, you will be prorated on time stayed, minus cleaning fees.

Excellent!

Wonderful stay for our family of 6! Great community as well as other vacationers that we met along our stay. Precisely as described and appreciate the little extras; crockpot, great cooking pans, fans, beach towel hooks at the entrance, comfy beds, plenty of linens and the shower heads…my boys sure did love them. The balcony is serene and a wonderful spot to take in the sea air. The coast is a short walking distance, enough so that we were able to enjoy it morning, afternoon and evening. Will definitely be back!

Home Away From Home

This was a wonderful place to stay. There was plenty of room for 5 people to stay, with extra room to spare. The balcony has plenty of seating. The kitchen has all the basics. It truly felt like home every time we came back for the night.

Great Stay

Great condo to stay in. We stayed in “off season” in September. It was quiet. Cozy. Really good communication with owner. I absolutely loved the many pillows and blankets provided. It was clean, close to beach access roads. Lots of restaurants near by. I think the only downside was there was no washer/dryer but our stay was short so we were okay. And also the ferry wait was an hour long. But that’s not the condos fault. More location related. I would 100% recommend to stay here.

This place was adorable! I loved how the living area and bedrooms where in separate areas. The place was very clean and the host was very helpful with tips for the island. I loved how there were floor fans in each bedroom. I have nothing negative to say about this place! We will stay here again.

Sandy Feet Condo

We enjoyed our stay in Port Aransas very much. We had 2 grandparents, the older teens, a younger elementary aged child and a 2 yr old in our group. This place was clean and uncluttered. Microwave, toaster, Mr. Coffee, dishwasher, full sized fridge. Air Conditioner worked very well. The main reason for renting a golf cart is to avoid all the sugar sand in your car, but a 6 person golf cart costs about$160 + for 24 hours. The Pel's are very good hosts. Check in and check out were easy. We'll definitely stay again.

We had a great stay. Hubby and I with 5 grandloves. The kids ranging from 2 to 11. We all enjoyed it. There was plenty of room for all of us. I was a bit confused that the listing claimed a short walk to the beach and showed a walkway, we didnt look really hard for it but the walkway was not as openly marked as we thought it would be. But that was such a small thing to us. The host was welcoming and offered any help we would need. Its a great place to stay.

About the host

Hosted by Amy Pels

Host profile image
We purchased Sandy Feet Retreat in April of 2017 to enjoy what the Port Aransas area has to offer. We have vacationed here for the last 20 years and decided to look for own little piece of paradise. When we came across this end unit, with its own private staircase, tucked into a little secluded area of the Sea Sands Condos, we fell in love. With the Gulf breezes, the shaded balcony and everything in town close by, we could not pass this up. We can't enjoy the full benefits of Port Aransas yet... But that is why we are sharing with others, so they can find the same coastal love that we did 20 years ago.

Why they chose this property

At Sandy Feet Retreat you will find a homey feeling. This is not your sterile type rental property. When we have down time or a couple of days, you will fund us, the owners, enjoying time at Sandy Feet Retreat.
