Island Retreat has been a favorite of ours when visiting Port A. We've stayed here many times over the years. This particular unit had everything we needed. I would suggest a look at some very noisy beds that are not particularly comfortable. One thing that did occur was with the kitchen ceiling lights. They inexplicably went out. I flipped the switch and nothing. Then about ten minutes later I tried again and they came on. Just an FYI. All in all, for a quick getaway, we had a great time. We will return to Island Retreat.

We had a wonderful stay at this Port Aransas condo! The location is perfect—just a short-ish boardwalk stroll over the dunes to the beach, and close to downtown shops and restaurants. The condo itself was very inviting, clean, and well-stocked. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking, with modern appliances and plenty of counter space.The living area was comfortable and spacious, with plenty of seating for our group, and we loved being able to step right out to the private patio to enjoy morning coffee. The master bedroom felt like a retreat with its king bed and ensuite bathroom, while the second bedroom was great with two full beds.The pool was well-kept and a great way to relax after a beach day. Overall, this condo offered everything we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation. We’d definitely stay here again!

Over all we have always enjoyed IR and have stayed in this unit many times.. and several others on the property… although inflation is at an all time high and also due to Harvey 5 yrs ago I am very disappointed in the third part bookings. House keeping fee … two tax fees and other charges . Probably be looking for other options with less added on fees .

The location is good....that's about all I can say about this place. The door code didn't work. Took a visit from a maintenance person, no explanation. Living room furniture is old and uncomfortable. Beds were worse! Had to be 10 years old....old, soft and creeky. We all woke up with sore backs. Was not advised of the renovations going on next door. Hammering and noise the entire stay. Not a relaxing vacation as we had envisioned. Plus the outlets in the "master suite" bath didn't work.....
