Amazing home that was fully stocked with necessary items for a good stay. So conveniently located. The only hiccup we had was checking in, we were not provided the correct code and couldn’t get a hold of anyone for 30 minutes. Although this was not ideal, the overall stay was excellent.

We had a great time staying at La Casa Gialla! It was roomy and perfect for our family summer vacation. It was on a quiet neighborhood street, but yet close to so many of the local attractions. A big plus was that it was pet friendly and had a pool!

Extremely spacious with a large amount of amenities offered to guests. We used every amenity from the fire pit, tv, living room, kitchen, pool, and all beds. It also is within seconds of the beach access road and 5 minutes from a grocery store. Everything was clean and in very good condition. We will definitely book again if possible.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family really enjoyed our stay in this home over Spring Break. This is a nice large home with ample room for the 10 of us. The large deck and fenced yard out back were great. The only thing that I feel guests with possible health issues should be aware of is that there are lots of steps to go up and down.

Cozy, fun and has all the things!

It was just a wonderful experience and the home was cozy and had everything you needed. The master bathroom was amazing! It was rainy when we stayed but my twin boys loved sitting on the deck and jumping in the pool anyway. They would get cold and go straight to the master rain hot shower. Perfect distance to the beach with the free golf cart. That was the highlight! The outdoor shower wasn’t working but maybe we didn’t know how to turn it on so we could have reached out and I’m sure the rental company would have helped us. They were a pleasure to work with and seemless transaction getting in and out of the property. Thank you for such a great stay for our family and a very much needed get away.

Great family option

This was our second time staying at La Casa Gialla and we enjoyed it again. It comfortably accommodated my husband and me, our four kids, my parents, and my brother and sister in law. The kitchen is incredibly well-appointed for cooking just about anything, though if anything, it could use fewer duplicative dishes to allow for a little space for your own food, spices, etc. One down side for us is the fact that there isn’t a grill. And if you bring one, you have to use it in the driveway where there’s no shade. Makes no sense, IMO. The pool is great. The sunshade wasn’t over it when we got there, but we called the management company and they were responsive. Sent someone out the next day to put it on. That made a big difference, allowing us to use it for longer periods and cooling off the water significantly. The downstairs master suite is beautiful with lots of room and a separate tub and shower that are both pretty awesome. Be sure to get the key to the back fence, which allows you to access the outdoor shower when you get back from the beach so you don’t have to track all the sand in the house. Highly recommend!

Family vacation 2019

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was very comfortable, the four bedrooms were large and suited our family well. The kitchen was big and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the back porch as well. The pool is small but the kids had fun. We visited in July and the temperatures were high 80’s low 90’s. The pool was HOT on several days. I think it needs a shade sail to partially cover it or a fountain to cool the water down. We noticed most pools in that area had addressed that problem. We also Were disappointed there was no grill, we always take food to cook out and were unable to have several of our meals (hamburgers, steak, hotdogs) because of this. We have been coming to Port A for 14 years and always had access to a grill. There was a large patio for cooking and hanging out but with no grill we couldn’t use it. There is also plenty of room for an outside shower but there is not one. Overall it’s a very nice house in a great location, with a few tweaks it would be perfect. I gave 4 stars on the cleanliness because the grass was a bit tall and there was sand in the pool when we got there. The inside of the house was very clean.

Family Summer vacation 2022

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Pros: Big home, private pool, golf cart, close beach access, large driveway.Cons: Check in was a disaster! We received a ready to check in email) as it states to hold off on check-in until we receive code) @4:03 pm and home was far from ready/cleaned. We waited another 30minutes as our frozen foods were melting in car. We then had to wait again for quick home inspection. We Checked in, left house to check out area and beach,came back to hot home upstairs and we tried adjusting A/C unit but seemed to not be adjusting correctly as it was set at 80. We called the “after hours” service and were charged $150 for doing so as they said someone tuned on heater (still makes no sense to this day and we were at blame for it). Guest room outlets we’re out so had to wait until following day to use any plugs there. That same room also had missing TV remotes. This home has lots of stairs and not suitable for elderly or babies. Also, plan to bring your own trash bags as cleaning crew left none. We brought along our dog but there was no grassy area, so we had to leave the home each potty break or use puppy pads. Overall, we had a nice family vacation but seems to be somewhat unorganized due to “busy summer bookings”.

Loved this home and the communication from the host! Only down fall is the gate you access to the Backyard. You have to walk through the rock beds, and it’s unsteady which complicates carrying coolers or anything on wheels.

Reviewer Comments: This Is our second time staying at this rental vacation sleeping is priceless lol I slept like a baby, but I suggest there be lights in the backyard because it was already dark by 6ish and we weren’t able to see anything downstairs, also the Wi-Fi was a 0 we never got service on the Wi-Fi we had to use our own hotspot to connect to anything for the weekend. Communication the first time was superior this 2nd time around was not so great. Over all we loved the stay but those few details were to be addressed.

Great Family Vaca @ La Casa Gialla

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our large family took our first beach trip together to Port A recently and stayed at La Casa Gialla for 4 nights. From check-in to check-out, we thoroughly enjoyed our time and La Casa Gialla was clean, comfortable and accommodated our large group well. The bedrooms were nice size and the beds very comfortable. The kitchen and living room areas were roomy enough for all of us to be together at the same time and still not feel crowded. We weren't able to enjoy the outdoor patio as often due to mosquitos and the heat, but this wasn't a big issue for us as we spent most of our time at the beach. The only recommendations we have is there wasn't space in the kitchen for non-perishables (pantry space), so we had to leave most of our groceries in bags on the floor. Having a gate between the kitchen and hallway would have been helpful to keep the little ones safe and away from the stairs. The outdoor shower wasn't working properly, so we weren't able to rinse off when returning from the beach and before entering the home. These are all minor issues and none that we felt hampered our stay in any way. We highly recommend La Casa Gialla for a family wanting to spend a fun trip at the beach while having all the comforts of home.
