Perfect house

This house was perfect for our family and friends! It was clean and right next to the pool. (The pool was warm but that can’t really be helped in this Texas heat.) we loved all of the deck space and all of the seating in the living room. We will definitely be back!

A Shorething Splender

The Shorething house was spectacular. The funishings, art deco, and exterior plants were wonderful. I especially loved the Bird of Paradise flowers. The owers take good care of this house. The kitchen was well supplied with good pots and pans. My family enjoyed staying at this house. I give this house an A+.

We have stayed in port A at different houses over the last 18 years. This house was perfectly kept, everything listed was as it should be. Wouldn’t. Change anything we did for the group we had. Would definitely stay there again. Thank you for the opportunity.

Port A family vacation

The house was great, lots of room for our group. It was a little stretch of a walk to the beach, 10 minutes with little kids. Two of the bedrooms did not have doors so it was challenging to get kids to bed in them. Loved that the pool was right next door and viewable from the deck of the house. The home was well stocked with essentials and no issues with anything.

Great House & Location!

House was great! Loved that there were 2 refrigerators. Clean, AC worked great! House even felt cold at 72 degree at night! Loved the large island in the kitchen. Perfects for staging food for a large group. The only negative would be the top room is not enclosed and is right off the kitchen. Anyone who sleeps in there will be kept up late or woken up by the early risers. Also, the recommended cart place was pretty pricy. I recommend selecting a cheaper place in town and driving the cart down the beach to the house vs the valet pickup/drop off method. (Personal preference). Either way, glad that the cart option was recommended!
