Welcome to Leave of Absence, your perfect getaway in sunny Port Aransas, where coastal charm meets modern luxury. This beautifully designed retreat invites you to leave the hustle and bustle behind and embrace a slower pace just steps from the beach. Start your day in the luxe backyard oasis, lounging poolside on sun chairs as the sparkling water beckons for a morning dip. Fire up the grill in the outdoor prep area, complete with a bar and stools for casual conversation, then gather around the outdoor dining table for a feast of fresh seafood.
