Relax in seaside splendor at this gorgeous Palmilla Resort home! Just a short drive from downtown Port Aransas and steps from the shore, this beautiful five-bedroom is the perfect place to treat family and friends to an unforgettable getaway to the Texas Gulf Coast. Experience stunning sunsets and sunrises from one of two private decks or relax inside beneath the cooling comfort of central AC. When everybody is ready to hit the beach, on-site access will have you touching sand in no time. Don't forget to grab the beach chairs provided! An outdoor shower adds convenience during your stay.
A bright, open-concept main floor layout greets guests inside with recent updates and elegant, high-end décor. For downtime during the day or family movies in the evening, the plush living room sectional and huge, wall-mounted smart TV are ready to provide comfort and entertainment. An expansive dining table divides the living room and kitchen. With place settings for 12, the entire household can enjoy group and family-style meals together. Teeming with attractive finishes and updates appliances, the impressive, full-size kitchen is the envy of most homes. Chefs in the group will find all the cookware, counter space, and utensils needed to prepare fabulous home meals. No need to spend your vacation on cleanup - the dishwasher can take care of that. A private patio can be accessed off the dining area. An equipped gas grill and outdoor picnic table will be a group favorite for beachside cookouts.
The main floor primary suite can be found just past the kitchen, complete with an en suite bathroom, wall-mounted smart TV, and private entry to/from the patio. A shared, half-bath is available at the foot of the stairs for common household convenience.
Heading to the second floor, you'll find the laundry closet just at the top of the stairs. To the right, a guest suite includes an attached bathroom, wall-mounted smart TV and sitting area, and a private balcony. To the left of the stairs, a small common area includes a loveseat sofa. A sliding, barn-style door opens up to the bonus bunk room. A full bathroom, and two additional guest suites are down the hall. Each of these bedrooms features an attached bath, wall-mounted smart TVs, and private access to a shared balcony.
As an added bonus, guests will enjoy access to Palmilla Resorts' gorgeous, two shared pools that are heated during our winter, complete with covered dining areas and poolside cabanas.

First time staying at Palmilla and it was awesome! Mila’s Retreat was a perfect house for our group. Garage access was convenient as it leads straight to the kitchen on the 1st floor. Kitchen is fully stocked. Tons & tons of space everywhere! Beds are comfortable. Kids enjoyed the bunk room while the adults enjoyed the king beds. Impressed with the Dyson purifiers. Loved the decor. Private courtyard was welcoming while we used the gas grill. Definitely recommend & we will be back!

The access to the beach is great
6 / 10Average·Aug 2022
Location was great, but be ready for some nearby construction as Palmilla is still being developed. We enjoyed the community pool and access to the beach. Floors were filthy when we checked in, and everyone's soles immediately turned black. We also had an ant issue in the kitchen as soon as we unloaded the food.
Communication with Vacasa was a bit bizarre. I emailed them weeks before with questions via VRBO, and did not receive a response to my email. After check in, the response times varied, and while they were eager to confirm they were working on fixing the ant issue, and said they *may* send someone to treat it, they were not able to confirm if anyone actually did enter the house to deal with the ants while we were at the beach. Apparently that a different team than whoever texts you back. We'll never know I guess???
Upon returning home I could not locate the charger for my baby's monitor and contacted Vacasa to ask if it was left behind. They said that I would be charged a fee for them to look for the item, whether or not is it found. No budging on this, and I was met with a cold "well, this is our policy".
Property overall is great. Property management leaves a lot to be desired.
