Great location. Easy to get to beach and to the center of town. House was very nice, clean, and snug. We were there during a tropical storm and had no problems. Do bring dish towels and something to scrub dishes with. We had a wonderful time despite the storm.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed our prime location and found both the beach and town center easily accessible. It’s wonderful to know that you found the house clean, snug, and up to your expectations, even during a tropical storm.
We truly appreciate your feedback regarding the dish towels and items to scrub dishes with. While we do provide these items, it seems there was an oversight during your stay. Please know that we are always here to assist you, and for any future visits, don't hesitate to reach out to us immediately so we can promptly address any needs you may have.
We’re delighted that you had a wonderful time despite the storm, and we hope to welcome you back soon for another memorable stay!

Best Spot in Port A!

Reviewed on 2022-09-21 by Joseph

Overall

We have been to Port A a few times now and this is by far the best house that we have rented out! The house was clean and ready on time for check in and we didn't get the code to the house by check in but called customer service which picked up right away and provided the code to me which was very helpful. The house was clean and didn't find anything wrong with it when we came in, the cleaning crew also puts sanitized stickers on the toilet and toilet paper so that way makes the customer feel comfortable. We had no issues throughout our stay and instructions were clear and easy to follow along for check in and our check out process. Will definitely rent this property next time we go to Port A!

Broken things

Reviewed on 2020-07-12 by , Fort Worth, TX US

Overall

Our stay did not meet are expectations. Last year we stayed at a property to the right of this property and had high expectations, Since we had a great time last year.
We arrived and we had several issues the first day. First the garbage disposal was leaking, next the tv remotes did not match up to the TV so we had to play remote bingo to find the right remote and tv. Next the rocker on the porch was broken. It was pushed up against the wall on the porch and when it was pulled out we could see it was broken. Both bathrooms the handles to flush the toilets had to we had to fix. The shower in the master bedroom shower head was not properly attached and was just hanging on to the down spout. You were able to use it as long as you didn’t move the head. Lastly we did see a couple of water bugs in the house.
The house was laid out nice and roomy we had a descant time but were sadly disappointed since it did not meet our expectations or hopes. Since the bar was set high in 2019.
The garbage disposal was fixed promptly.
Would I stay at this house again no. Would I use Life in Paradise again yes.
