The first floor offers a comfortable living space, featuring one bedroom with two queen beds, a full-sized bathroom, and a fully equipped secondary kitchen. You'll also find a cozy dining area and a secondary living room complete with a Roku TV, DVD player, and a selection of movies in the video library.

Outside, the backyard is equipped with three charcoal grills, a picnic table, an outdoor shower, and a variety of beach toys and chairs for your enjoyment.

The second floor of the home boasts breathtaking ocean views and serves as the heart of the house, featuring the main kitchen, living room, and dining area. The bright, open interior is bathed in natural light and includes a cozy living room with plenty of comfortable seating, perfect for relaxing or spending time with loved ones. This floor also includes two beautifully appointed bedrooms—one with a king-size bed and the other with a queen-size bed. Both bedrooms are equipped with Roku TVs for entertainment and blackout curtains to ensure a restful night’s sleep. A spacious full bathroom with a tub/shower combo and double sinks is conveniently situated between the two bedrooms. The kitchen on this level is a chef’s dream, complete with high-end appliances, including a 36” Italian gas range, and fully stocked with all the essentials needed to prepare gourmet meals. Outside, you’ll find a sprawling covered wrap-around deck furnished with durable polywood furniture and an outdoor dining table, offering an ideal spot for al fresco meals or simply soaking in the ocean breeze.

The third floor of the home is a perfect retreat, housing the spacious primary suite and a cozy bunk room. The primary suite is an inviting haven featuring a king bed with a luxurious mattress and high-end sheets, ensuring a restful night's sleep. It also boasts an attached full-size bathroom with a grand stand-up shower, double vanities, and a private toilet closet, as well as double closets for ample storage. Just outside the primary suite, you'll find a versatile space that includes a comfortable sitting area, a dining nook, a full-size bathroom, a charming kids' bunk room with four twin beds, and a convenient kitchenette.

Step out onto the additional covered patio, which offers stunning ocean views and durable polywood furniture. This patio is the perfect spot to relax and unwind, especially in the afternoons when it provides welcome shade. After a day spent at the beach or pool, you can escape the sun and enjoy a refreshing drink, dine alfresco, and take in the breathtaking sunsets.
Three living rooms are perfect for hosting movies or game nights with comfortable seating areas. Everyone gets front-row seats to the HDTV. The cozy area rugs, decorative light fixtures, and plush accent pillows and blankets make this a comfortable place to relax. One on each level allows plenty of space to spread out.

Our beach house is nestled in the sought-after Sand Point Circle community, offering a perfect blend of convenience and relaxation. Guests can take advantage of the community pool and hot tub, conveniently located just across the street, for a refreshing dip or a soothing soak. A private boardwalk provides easy access to the beautiful beach, where you can enjoy the sun, sand, and sea. Additionally, the community boasts the island's only beachside bar and restaurant, making it a unique spot to savor a meal or drinks with ocean views. For those looking to explore, downtown Port Aransas, with its charming restaurants and shops, is just a short drive away.

Port Aransas, a gem on the Texas Gulf Coast, offers the perfect blend of sun, sand, and relaxation. With its pristine beaches, charming small-town vibe, and a wide range of outdoor activities, it's an ideal vacation spot for groups. Enjoy fishing, water sports, or simply lounging on the sandy shores. Don't miss the Port Aransas Nature Preserve for birdwatching. This coastal haven promises unforgettable memories for your group getaway. Come stay at Chili Petin for an incredible vacation on the Texas Coast!

For guests with mobility concerns, please note that this is a three-story home. There are 9 steps leading up to the front door, 5 steps down to the first floor, and 11 steps up to the second floor. However, if easier access is needed, you can enter the first floor directly through the carport entrance, which requires navigating just two steps.

During your stay, you will have access to the entire home, with the exception of the garage and a few owner closets.

The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 4 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 5 bedrooms and a dining area.

Everything it says and more

We loved this house and highly recommend to others. We were traveling with grandparents and their two son’s families. The space was perfect. There was everything we needed in the kitchen (from plenty of pans, plates, silverware, spices, coffee and creamer. I have never had a host leave coffee supplies) and beach supplies were great. They even left a sand bucket and bubbles for the kids. The pool near the house was a bonus. Would definitely stay here again.

One of Our Best VRBOS

Our large family of grandparents, kids, and adult grandkids plan a yearly vacay. We were very comfortable here with plenty of room to spread out, play games, and cook delicious seafood. The main kitchen was completely stocked with everything we needed. But the first plus grandma noted was the cleanliness.

Good Location and Roomy

We enjoyed our stay at Sand Point. The owner/manager was responsive to any needs that arose, which were minor. Keep in mind, this is not a new home with new furnishings, but a beach house that is a few generations old. It serves its purpose well, being very spacious for a large group.

This place is a gem!

We had a rental that cancelled on us last minute 😬 we were super lucky to find this wonderful house! We’ve stayed at a variety of rentals in Port A but I think we may have found our happy place! Spacious, well-equipped home, boardwalk to the beach, couple of blocks from the beach road. We had a wonderful trip!

Fun Family vacay

We had a great time at Chili Petin! Everything was exactly as advertised, the house was perfect or our needs. 5 bedrooms and the bunk room was great for our teenagers. Everything was very well stocked and I loved that things were labeled and easy to find. We spent a lot of time on the porches, great furniture and plenty of seats for everyone. We would definitely stay here again!

Really enjoyed our stay at Sand Point. Location was close to everything including walking distance to the beach. House was fully stocked with all the cooking gear, games and stuff you might need for the week at the beach. There is even a beach front bar at the end of the block that makes great pizza if you don’t feel like cooking or found out. Definitely recommended !
