This was a really great stay at a wonderfully affordable price. The apartment was clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the large balcony and access to the private fishing pier. The management company was excellent with their quick response and solution when the AC unit failed to cool at the initial unit. I would absolutely stay here again.

Disappointed
Check in was great and we loved our time at Port Aransas, however we had several problems with our unit. The air conditioner did not work for two days and after three calls to the office/emergency # it was finally fixed. There was mold in the cabinets above the stove and some of the dishes were dirty. We ended up washing everything we used just to be on the safe side. Bonus... cockroaches in the bathroom. We will definitely go back to Port Aransas but will be staying elsewhere.
