This property is awesome! We booked Port A Tropical Hideaway for our family vacation and it was perfect. We had 18 people in total, and with the ability of booking a space big enough for everyone, we all had our own spaces but could all still be close together. The main house and downstairs apartment/game room are spacious enough for group meals or for just hanging out. The kids loved all the games downstairs, and everyone had their own private space. There's tons of parking, both in the garages and out in the driveway, that we never had an issue even with 5 vehicles and 2 golf carts. The host is incredibly sweet and very attentive. Any questions I had were answered promptly and efficiently. I would highly reccommend Port A Tropical Hideaway to anyone looking to take a large group to the island. We will definitely be back!!!!!!

There were a few issues with some cleanliness and one bed was heavily damaged up arrival and they were communicated with the owner the owner was very responsive and helpful in hearing our concerns. The owner was not aware of these issues as they were not communicated by the maintenance staff. The owner apologized and offered a partial refund. Overall the house was lovely and in a good location. Other than the few things mentioned to the owner the experience was great.

Don't rely on the pictures. There is no bunk room. There is no foosball table. Both a disappointment to young cousins hoping to room together. In the apartment downstairs, there is 3 SMALL bedrooms with no cabinets or dressers or table to hold suitcases in 2 of the rooms. We did fine with the layout but the listing did not mention the main house is upstairs or that the apartment was not one level. I thought the bunk room was part of the main house. It is not. It is part of the apartment. You have to go outside to go between the apartment and the main house. There is a giant step up in the bathroom in the apartment and another step to get to the tiny bedroom that had the queen bed. These were important things for us to know as we had several guests who use a cane due to knee issues. The apartment has the 2 rooms with bunkbeds, a room with a queen bed and the pool table. The kitchen is now a kitchenette with very little counter space. The apartment does not have central air. It has individual units. The units in the queen room and the small bunk room were dirty and had error messages during our stay. There were also dehumidifiers that needed emptying as soon as we walked in, but no directions on what setting to use were provided, so we guessed. The small bath on the apartment had a malfunctioning toilet and the shower drained really really slow. Minimal toilet paper was given. I have never been told to supply toilet paper at my vrbo. One roll of paper towels in the main house and one roll for the apartment. There were 14 of us, so this was not enough which is fine, but the property manager was not apologetic, sympathetic or accommodating to either paper need. A few roaches were seen in both units. The main house upstairs is really nice and it is a stark contrast to bare bones less glamorous apartment. All of this came as a surprise since the pictures are almost all wrong. When we pulled up, we didn't know where the front door was to the main house. The checkin email had a wrong code for one of the doors and no wifi directions were given. Melanie was unreachable for weeks 2 different times. I actually had to ask VRBO customer service for help. When she was finally available, she was kind and accomodating. I have used VRBO several times and never encountered these issues. Overall we had a good time, but had we known about the layout, accomodations, and AC issues, we might not have chosen this rental.
