We ❤️ Channelview
My family has been visiting Port Aransas for over 60 years and specifically Channelview for many years. The improvements to the property after Harvey are beautiful. Our unit offered enough space to provide personal privacy as well as gathering areas that accommodated our group of 9. Check in and out was seamless. The weather was gorgeous. The water and the beach were pristine. We’re looking forward to our next visit.

Outstanding Visit
This property is absolutely beautiful. We have been staying at Channelview for 30+ years in different units and this unit is by far the most beautiful one we have stayed in. The decor is Beautifully updated and the kitchen was fully stocked with anything one might need to cook with. The wrap around deck was awesome and the fact we had our own gas grill to cook on was a bonus. We love watching the huge ships come into the channel and the fishing off the private pier is a family favorite.... We will be back!!!
