Sleepless in Port A
Overall we had some issues at the property from the moment we checked in. There were items that were in disrepair and fixable but it didn’t seem as if things were being maintained from renter to renter.
The house overall looked a bit warn on the outside. Paint was chipping and the deck in the rear had a lot of loose and raised up nails. The gate going up the front stairs was difficult to open and close, the back yard has not being maintained and the grass was so long that the mosquitoes were unbearable. The only reason we booked this property was for our dogs to go out but it was just so unusable as a yard and we did not use it at all.
There were things in the house not working properly like the faucets, light bulbs and we also had a some roaches. We reported all of this via message to the management company and they said they would send someone out which we declined because who wants Matience people in your rental when you are on vacation.
Our BIGGEST issue was the house next door which is a duplex that allows 16 people to stay in it and it has a pool which is near the Primary Bedroom. We had 4 nights of unrest from two different families/ rental groups making loud noises, playing loud music, screaming etc. Even though the curfew at Port A is 10PM they did not stop until 1-2 AM. We reported this to our management company, the houses management company and the police. Nothing was resolved until the police came. Just a warning for parents as we had no idea.

Weekend Trip
The place was very nice and conformable. We had to kill a few roaches. Recommend getting pest control. Otherwise the stay was very comfortable and would rent again.

Mothers Day Trip
We enjoyed our little weekend getaway at this beach house was super cozy and beautifully decorated. We will come back to stay here again. Only thing was there were dead roaches on the kitchen counter and in the living room area. There was a spider on the master bedroom bed. We are not the type to be like omg there’s roaches and spiders no biggie but they were there 😕 also there wasn’t any trash bags so thankfully we saved our groceries bags to throw our trash. Last the TV in the master bedroom was not working oh well it’s ok we weren’t there to really watch TV 😁 other than that we enjoyed our stay. Like I said we will come back to stay here hopefully next time there won’t be the little uninvited guests 😁

Great space
Great space for my family and our dog. Had a run in with two small live roaches in the mixing bowls shortly after we arrived in the evening. Called and they sent out someone to spray the next morning. Would stay here again.

Wonderful Property
We enjoyed our vacation and stay at Sandy Cheeks. Loved that the property has a fenced in yard and is pet friendly. We love bringing our dogs with us to the beach. The house had everything we needed (and then some). Close to everything (beach, restaurants).

Spontaneous Getaway!
My husband and I (and our 2 small dogs) booked this house for a spontaneous 5 day trip to Port Aransas. Overall it was a relaxing week and we enjoyed the accommodations of the house. It was as advertised, and was actually larger than we needed. It was nice having a fenced backyard for the dogs, as well as a faucet and shower wand to hose us all off after being at the beach all day. We didn't use much in the kitchen, but it looked well-stocked. There were 2 good sized refrigerators as well - we only used one, but I imagine it would be handy to have 2 with a larger group. Internet was out for one day, but it was out in the whole area, so no fault of the property. The location of the house was just a short drive from the main shopping areas in town. We rented a golf cart from "Gulf Carts" and had a great experience. They delivered and picked up the cart for an extra $25, which was convenient. Highly recommend renting a golf cart!

Great Beach Vacation
1st time to Port A! Beautiful beach destination. Great property. The only reason we would give it a 4 is due to the patio and backyard both needing a clean up and some work. Inside of house is as described and shown in pictures on listing. Bathrooms are tiny but they work.

Perfect Getaway
This house is so beautiful! Lots of beach farm house charm and the beds were extremely comfortable. The bathrooms are very small but honestly they work and it is a beach house after all. The living room area is very spacious and the couch will be the best post beach nap you ever took! We did have some structural concerns as the deck is rotting in places and was not nailed or screwed in along the railing in some areas. We found out the hard way. But the property management team was at our door within the hour and made it right/safe. You can see home has lots of upgrades and does look like it is a work in progress. If you have children, keep a close eye out as the stairs are plenty and steap and not all railing was secured due to wood rot. The stairs leading down to the back yard are brand new so it does look like they are working on improvements. Over all? Phenomenal weekend stay for a family of four! Felt almost like home.

Great place
Location is perfect. We rented a golf cart and it was so easy getting to town and to the beach. The place was very clean and comfortable. The grass needed to be mowed but that was our only complaint. Would highly recommend!

We had a lovely time over Christmas break.
The location is perfect; the cottage was clean, the beds comfortable, the kitchen well-appointed, the living room and tv's fine. The #2 shower could use improvement. The managemnt didn't answer us when I asked a question (maybe off for Xmas?)...We appreciated the fenced yard, which was a perfect space for our pups. All in all, it was a great place to stay.

Christmas at the coast
The property was lovely- simple and exactly as described. It was too cold to utilize the community pool or go to the beach but that was okay. We enjoyed our stay. The beds were so comfortable! Only issue we had was with the dryer not working, but it was not a big deal for us and did not hinder our enjoyment. I will give a bit of advice, if you plan on cooking while here, bring supplies such as spices, aluminum foil, ect. All in all- Wonderful property.
