The house is just a few blocks from the beach, so use a car or a golf cart. The house has two parking spots, but you can easily park a third car blocking the other two and comply with the Port Aransas rules of no parking on streets. The first floor is open floor plan and very spacious. Well equipped kitchen although the pans are old and stick, so we got our own pans.The master bedroom with its full bathroom is in the first floor and there is a half-bath for the social area under the stairs. The TV has Internet and Direct TV, so we were able to see the FIFA games (this was very important to us).The upstairs has 3 bedrooms and a full bathroom. The washer and dryer are also upstairs.All rooms spacious, comfortable beds.There is an external shower and a hose outside that you can use to rinse out the sand.The pool is OK, shared with all the houses in the development (I believe there are 6), the pool furniture is sturdy.Port A Beach (managing company for the rental) arranged a voucher for us to rent beach gear, which was great because that way we did not pack beach chairs or a cooler.There were only a couple of little things, like the grill was not cleaned when we arrived, plug strip in kitchen loose, one of the bathrooms did not have the liquid soap to wash hands, etc. Minor things that we reported immediately as per their instructions do they don't charge us for it.We were 10, and were comfortable in the house. Plenty of space for all.

Lots of room to hold 2 families comfortably. Enjoyed our stay. Recommend to others.

The house is way smaller than it appears in the posted pictures. The property manager is basically unreachable and when you finally get a call back he treats you like you are stupid. Upper bunk sheets were dirty. The walls were dirty. The throw pillows on the bed were stained and stunk. The house was decorated well and it has a very functional layout but the parking and the outside pool area are a mess. The homes need to be power washed and dead trees need to be removed.
