Best Place on the Beach

Beautiful home with easy access to the beach and to town. I went there this past weekend to "reset" as it was the second anniversary of my husbands passing. We were together for over 45 years, my high school sweetheart. The close and long walks helped clear my mind a bit. Although it was just my brother and I, this place would be amazing to take a large family. May have to bring my grandsons next trip. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.

Dear Gretchen,
Thank you so much for sharing your heartfelt experience with us. We are deeply moved by your beautiful words and are honored that our home could provide you with a serene space to reset during such a significant time.
Your story of love and cherished memories resonates deeply, and we are touched that the peaceful walks and proximity to the beach offered you some solace. It warms our hearts to know that you found comfort and clarity here.
We wholeheartedly agree that our home is indeed a perfect gathering place for families, and we would be delighted to welcome you and your grandsons on your next visit. We hope that it will be filled with joyful moments and create new, lasting memories for you and your loved ones.
Thank you once again for choosing our home and for your kind words. It’s guests like you who inspire us and remind us of the true essence of hospitality.
Warmest regards,

Our normal place was booked so I chose 12 La Playa and was pleasantly surprised at the space, the pool, the golf cart (included) and all of the special little touches even for our 4 legged babies.

I didn't get an opportunity to write in the guest book so I am glad for this time to reflect. During our stay we had a family reunion and occupied three guest houses. All three houses were a perfect fit for each family. Specifically, the Queen Anne for us could not have been more beautiful and accommodating. It was so clean and fully furnished with games, toys, kitchen ware, bathroom supplies and anything we would need. The decor of this home was amazing and the beds were so comfortable.

Experience was great from booking through check-out. Clear communication for arrival and departure, nice amenities (shampoo and conditioner! plenty of towels! coffee filters!), great house. Loved the living area--so many areas to sit in, and a pretty big kitchen as well. The location was awesome--we LOVED being able to walk to the beach, instead of having to drive.

3 Bedroom house in great location

Reviewed on 2020-10-18 by , Montgomery , TX US
Overall

Located in a small enclave of homes. First floor consisted of the garage & utility room. 2nd Floor consisted of kitchen, living room, breakfast room, full bath #2, master bedroom (en suite Full bath #1/master bath), Bedroom #2 (w/“Relax” sign above it), and wrap around deck. Third floor was more of a loft area with 3 twin beds and an en suite full bathroom. Location was close to beach. Stayed during COVID quarantine so there was a time period where Vehicles (including golf carts) were not allowed on beach so this house’s location would have been perfect. You could walk to the beach by accessing the private bridge/boardwalk. Beach views /ocean views available when sitting on back wrap-around porch. The 3rd floor loft/bedroom had a TV and some kids’ toys & crayons. It was the perfect rental home for our family with 3 boys (between 6-8yrs old).the only negative I found was that the kitchen didn’t have much pantry space but that’s really nitpicking. Everything was a great size. We’ll be staying here again in the future.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are glad that this home was accommodating and you were able to take advantage of the boardwalk to the beach. We appreciate your business and look forward to having you back again soon.

Our family of 3 absolutely loved our stay in Port A and the 12 La Playa villa that we rented. The property was spacious, clean, and well-outfitted. We even felt comfortable bringing our 5 month old puppy with us as the floors were all terracotta tile and it was easy to clean the sand off all of us with convenient outdoor shower. Check-in and out was super easy thanks to the online authorization. The only aspect of the property that could use some attention is the outer decking where the would deck and stairs is getting VERY weathered, to the point that bare feet are not recommended. We rented a golf cart from Life in Paradise for a day and even rolled through the Domino's drive-thru to pick up our pizzas to take them home after a day on the beach. Overall, it was a stellar vacation for us and the first time we ventured out since COVID hit in March. We felt safe and comfortable thanks to the wonderful accommodation and the miles of beach right outside our door. Thank you. We will visit again!

Thank you so much for staying with us, and we are so happy that you had a wonderful stay at 12 LaPlaya. The wood deck and stairs have had a \"facelift\" since your family's stay with us. We do look forward to your visit again soon!

Enjoyed the house. Great location!!!

We decided on this trip pretty last minute, so we were happy to find a house within easy walking distance to the beach. The boardwalk is very close and convenient and looks new. You're not allowed to park on the street in the neighborhood, but we managed to fit two trucks and a car on the property. The house seemed basically clean (no insects!!!). There were some stains on the master bedroom and bathroom rugs and the couches, but that's to be expected in a pet-friendly rental. Plenty of places to sleep and lots of seating in the living room to relax. The beds were firm, but very comfortable. We slept great!!! The upstairs is a little warm, but some box fans were provided which made a big difference. There are three TV's and two Roku's, if you want some indoor entertainment. There is also a washer and a dryer in the garage (we didn't use them). Dining room table seats six with two nice bar stools at the counter. The only thing I would change about this place is to update the pots and pans, and especially the skillets. They were very old and many were not in good shape. Made cooking for a crowd a bit of a challenge. Also, providing some more dish towels would be great. Two just were not cutting it.Overall, this was probably our favorite trip to Port Aransas. It was great to get away and just have some fun. We really enjoyed the house and would totally stay here again.

We really enjoyed the house which was well supplied with plenty of room. A bit of caution is the neighborhood is tight and you are at the mercy of you neighbors, especially across the street. We were unlucky as they were 24/7 parties and the house next door had 4 dogs who barked all night...sleep was not an option. If you get lucky with your neighbors this is a great property!

A group of 7 of us stayed at this house for a weekend and it couldn't have been better! With a group of girls this large, having three full bathrooms with showers was a big hit. The house was big enough that we could space out well if we needed to, and the seating areas were big enough that we could all relax together as well. The large space made it to where we could be cooking in the kitchen and not wake anyone up that was sleeping, which was also important! The kitchen was fully furnished with utensils and cookware, which was handy when we came from out of state. The walk to the beach was just short enough that we didn't mind it either! And the location on the beach was perfect.

Check in was easy and we were able to get in a little early. Very clean and perfect location with an easy walk to the beach. With 4 boys ages 5&7 it was nice to be able to go back to the house without hopping in a vehicle. Only thing I would ask they improve is the deck. It’s worn and we had a couple issues with rusty nails - we just grabbed a rug and put it over the spots. Other than that I would highly recommend staying here. I also liked having the app because it had all the info we needed.

What a nice location, a fun walk over the boardwalk to the beach, a very quick drive with your beach things, close to town but secluded. And how nice to bring your pups ( for a fee of course). However the home itself desperately needs the attention of an adequate cleaner. There was a massive amount of dog hair & fur under the furniture & in the air return. Other than that there is an AC problem upstairs & the temp has to be lowered overall to keep it bearable for sleeping. Be careful going barefoot on the deck you might get a splinter and make sure your pups don’t walk in the “grass” it’s full of grass burrs. Be careful of backing a pickup into the carport the loose white rocks tend to get thrown & they could cause a mess or injury. It’s better to park your pickup in front of the house. We had a good time but did exercise some deep cleaning with a broom.

We are a family that comes to PA every year and have for well over 30 yrs. We usually stay in a condo but our favorite one has not reopened since Harvey. We decided to rent a house and Life in Paradise was recommended to us as a good company to work with. We were more than pleased with the property and the rental company. We will rent with them again. Next time we might get in a house with pool in the complex. We did miss that but the beach access was excellent. We had our adult sons and a daughter-n-law with us and the house was large and very comfortable. Loved the deck mornings and evenings!

This beach home at first appears a little rustic, but everything proved to be family friendly and very comfortable. It has a large living-dining room with two large sleeper couches and other seating,and a desk. The wifi works well and the TV has enough channels to keep the family happy. The Mexican tile floors are worry free if sand is brought in and easy to maintain. Over all this is a very quiet location 5 minutes walk to the beach. Once on the beach you can walk miles in rather direction and see and do many interesting. The surf is safe for the family and the sand beach is 100 feet or so wide, and you can fish of the beach or off a pier or of the famous rock jetty just 2 miles away.

We really enjoyed our month stay there and highly recommend it.

We spent Jan/Feb 2014 at this rental. We love Port Aransas! This was our first time to the island and we love the community.

As for the house, the space is wonderful, including great living room furniture and master bedroom mattress. We enjoyed the short walk to the beach--4 times per day because of two dachshunds.

The only downside is the interior needs paint, new carpeting in the upstairs bedroom, paint exterior doors, and maybe new stove burners and drip plates--it needs \"staging\". The most negative to us are the pavers outside and is the reason we did not rebook at this location for next year. If they replace the pavers with cement, we would be back! Did I mention we love Port Aransas!!

I am very glad you enjoyed your stay at Port Aransas and at # 12 La Playa. Thank you for taking the time to write the review and bring the issues above to my attention.
