A Shore Thing - epic Gulf views. Only 65 steps to beach- low monthly winter rate

Everything was great except our vehicles got stuck multiple times in the driveway. The owner needs to ensure that the drive is cleaned regularly. It was very difficult for older adults to be pushing vehicles out of being trapped in the sand. We've stayed in this house many, many times and have never had this problem before. But it made things very difficult. We are staying here again starting Nov. 15. I feel like we should get some reimbursement from our previous stay or a discount on our next stay.

This was our first time staying at this beach house; and we were very pleased! The view is amazing. The interior was very nice and clean, & more spacious than we expected. The side door could use a tad bit of work, but other than that, we had zero complaints! The prices were very good. We will definitely be back. This is our new favorite place.

Location, privacy & great house.

There were major problems with electrical and 10 inches of sand in the driveway. The managers felt it was typical of being at the beach and would not reply to texts. We ended up having to call the safety hotline about 5 times. They were going to cut off our power for four hours to fix the issue and expected us to find a place to go since no ac. The sand they told us it was worse the weekend before us. They told us to enjoy the view. We luckily had a four wheel drive and we learned quickly how to use it. When the managers disagree with what you think is safe, they simply ignore you. It was pathetic. We felt we were on our own to deal with whatever they thought was standard. Clearly we felt ignored. The microwave was very clean and nice.

The sand covers the driveway - it is about 10 inches deep so yes, it has a great view and yes it is on the beach and yes it is a great house, but you better be aware of the sand - sometimes you can drive in without using four wheel drive, but out of a 6 day vacation we had deep deep sand for all but the first day.

This home is in an absolutely ideal location. However, when we checked in, it was full of bugs and the refrigerator had not been cleaned and there was a strong unpleasant odor. The local vacasa team came that day and swept the hugs up at our request. The pictures are not current and the house needs a lot of maintenance. The kitchen appliances are old, the microwave doesn’t work, although they have put one on the cabinet for use, a cabinet door is not attached, the dining tables are very worn, the bathroom shower does not have the enclosure shown, just a curtain, there is no outdoor shower. Overall the pictures are very deceptive.

My business partner and I stayed for 2 nights for a fishing trip. Excellent location. Open and spacious with a great deck for relaxing and watching the beach. Clean with comfortable beds. The grill is useless due to corrosion. We would definitely bring our wives back and book this place again.

Great property and location. On the water and near everything else.

The cleaning people did a splendid job preparing the place for us! The view from the rental and the beach assess were both excellent. However, the rental itself needs attention. Many appliances, beds, kitchen wear, furnishings, etc. need to be better maintained or even replace. Also, the kid's bunk is room smelt like mildew when it rained. It was strong enough that our kids ended up sleeping on the floor in another room and didn't use the bunk room for the remainder our stay. We still had a fantastic family vacation because things like this aren't a huge deal to us. But we thought we should recommend maintaining the rental better for a more comfortable stay.

We really enjoyed our stay and the location is hard to beat! We came to Port Aransas for Spring Break with our 4 young kids and had a great time! The house is literally situated ON the beach, so the fact that we could just walk outside and be on the ocean was wonderful. The house does come with a variety of amenities, including a regular drip coffee machine, a Keurig, a blender, and a toaster (I didn’t see these things listed on the site and was wondering about them). The only downside was the kitchen amenities, particularly the microwave, stovetop, and oven, as well as the dryer. They’re all pretty outdated. The washer was new, but we had to put the dryer on a 60-minute cycle twice on high heat for each load to get it to dry all the way. Additionally, the hot water tank must be on the smaller side because it seemed to run out when we all took showers at the same time. Other than that, our stay was great and we’ll definitely return for another trip!

If you want a place right on the beach, this is it. You literally have to drive down the beach to get to the house.

Second time to stay there. Great location.

The inside was clean and comfortable. Really bummed they took out the front steps. Don't think you can be closer to the beach!!

The house is perfectly situated next to the beach. Check-in was seamless and the property was clean and well stocked. Lots of towels and toiletries provided!

Location was great, access to beach extremely easy. The house easily accommodated all six of us. We had a great time and hope to come back again next year
