The property was easy to find, however parking is very limited and tight. The cottage itself was clean. The furniture was less than desirable. The hide a bed couch was extremely uncomfortable to sit on and the mattress was very thin and smaller than the frame, I don’t see how two people could possibly sleep comfortably on it.

Adorable quaint cottage close to the beach and shops

We really enjoyed our stay! Super close to shops and just a few blocks from the beach! The bed was super comfortable and my 13 ye old said the pullout sofa bed was super comfy as well! It was the perfect size place for my family,1 adult and two children ( 9 and 13).

Great property

My husband and I had a great weekend getaway at this property. The condo is in a great location, walking distance to the beach and several restaurants. The condo was clean, well equipped, and nice and cool over a hot Texas weekend!

Terrible stay

I tried rescheduling our stay before the hurricane they wouldn’t let us. We had to leave in the middle of our mini gateway due to poor communication. No hot water in the shower and there were spiders in the room. I don’t recommend this place.

Don’t waste your money staying here

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Cute little place on the outside but has some major issues. There were multiple cockroaches in the house during my stay. There was hot water for maybe 30 seconds and then just cold water. The blanket on the bed could not have been thinner, I had to bring a blanket over from my parents house. The inside could use a paint job (chipping paint and water stains on ceiling) and could use some updated furniture and decor. The bedroom dresser was falling apart. The shower rod and curtain were completely rusted. It felt like this place maybe has a lazy owner who doesn’t care about the guests experience. Other than all that felt safe and liked the location. Had a much better experience in a different cottage on the same property. They are 100x nicer and have better amenities. Skip this particular one and choose a different cottage.

Sandfest Again!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: We enjoyed the stay, but the cottage we stayed in was a bit small. We’ll look for a larger one next year. Also, the TV did not get very many of the channels we normally watch, primarily ESPN. Maybe some younger folks could navigate their way around that, but since there were no instructions available, we were unable to. Would also like to give Island Outfitters a shout out for their cart service. They’re the best!

Super Cute!

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: This small cottage was very cute. It was close to so many restaurants, bars, and beach. There were 3 of us that stayed. The couch pulled out to a queen bed and took up the entire living room area. The bathroom is very small and not much room to put your belongings. However, I would definitely stay here again. It was perfect for our 2 night stay. Very clean and convenient to everything Port Aransas!
