About this property

Sea Oats Cottage; Romance by the Sea, Luxury 1 bdrm, 1 bath, walk to the beach

SeaOats cottage is a gracious getaway for two in scenic Port Aransas on Mustang Island. This beautiful newly constructed home was built as a Vacation Rental. Located on the 'quiet end' of 11th Street in Port Aransas, the SeaOats sits just below the historic Chapel on the Dunes, which is the oldest consecrated church in Port Aransas, now popular for private weddings on Mustang Island.

Proud owner Jim Atwill has planned each area of the construction with your comfort and luxury in mind. All finishes in this home are high end, from the red oak flooring to the Travertine tile spacious shower to the Texas pink granite on the counter tops. Finest stainless steel appliances appoint the kitchen. Make no mistake, there is no accommodation in Port Aransas that comes close to the comforts you will feel in the SeaOats Cottage. Sleeping for 2 adults only, relax, get away, rekindle, rejuvenate, and relive those past vacations when times were slower. No children or pets.

A beautiful and thoughtfully arranged property. We loved all the personal touches inside. It was by no means a generic, run of the mill vacation rental. Truly lovely. We felt like we had the best place to stay on the whole island.

We enjoyed our stay here so much! We felt right at home, and liked being able to walk to the nearby beach. The cottage is small but cozy, and has everything you might need.We are already talking about making a stay here a reoccurring thing. Highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for something that’s not a condo.

Great cottage just perfect for 2 adults. Parking got tricky thanks to the Chapel on the Dunes traffic but the cottage itself offered everything we needed.

We stay in Port A often . This home is a very quaint cottage. It is cozy and has lovely features. I think I particularly liked the history of the property, which is available at the house. It has everything you could possibly need. The towels are plush. The bed and linens are comfortable. The couch is comfortable. The lighting was romantic. The shower was amazing. The host left us some coffee and it was beyond excellent and kind of them. The kitchen has what you would need for cooking. The cottage is for two and has a beautiful wrap around porch. It was VERY clean. What I did not like, was that we had to keep the blinds closed because of the foot traffic going to the Church in The Dunes. We are also used to seeing the ocean and I missed that aspect of our stay. However, if you are looking for a romantic, cozy, understated elegant cottage ….this is definitely a must place to stay! The host communicated beautifully and I would highly recommend staying here.

Why they chose this property

Newly constructed as the first Accessory Dwelling Unit in Port Aransas, the design plays off the Katrina cottage plan and was designed by the owner's brother, an artist in Santa Fe and the plans were drawn by a well known Santa Fe designer.

What makes this property unique

Local craftsmen added their expertise to this design which makes good use of every inch of the space in this gorgeous cottage. From the appliances, fixtures, lighting and furnishings each piece fits perfectly in place and the whole of the creation is much greater than the unique parts that went into it. Not fussy, but uniquely high end finishes from the red oak flooring, granite counter tops, luxurious linens, no detail has been overlooked.
