Best Stay in Port A
This place is beautiful. The heated pool and hot tub are the perfect mix of covered and sun. You are just a short walk from the beach and a short commute to town. We will definitely be renting this place again.

This beach front home is absolute perfection. It was large enough to have a surprise slumber party for a soon to be 16 year old as well as several sets of adults. Clean and wonderful. Highly recommend and would stay here again.

Enjoyed our stay
House was very spacious, we enjoyed our stay. My only complaint would be that the water in the hot tub and pool located on the back porch of the house was not very clean, could use a cleaning treatment.

Spring break getaway
We really did enjoy our stay. The house was clean and the beds were comfortable. The spa and pool were a plus. I really liked that it was close to the beach and we had a board walk close to the our rental. I would definitely be renting this rental again.

Son’s 1/2 birthday celebration
My son’s birthday is in December and never has an outdoor party. So this year we did a 1/2 birthday and came to Port A with some of his friends and another family. To say the house was amazing is an understatement. Super clean, super beautiful! The only issue was the door code didn’t work and they were there to fix it within 10 mins. Just a short walk to the beach. Would highly recommend and definitely will stay here again!

Great Stay
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed our 5 night stay here. The house has everything you need. They include a few laundry pods, dishwasher pods, 2 paper towel rolls, and some trash bags, which was all really great. The layout of the house is nice. The pictures didn’t really explain it well...but it has a nice layout. The bottom floor has 3 rooms and two bathrooms. The 2nd floor has the living area and the master bedroom with a very large bathroom, and a half bath. The 3rd floor has the bunk room with a bathroom. The elevator was very nice to have for coolers and luggage! Oh, it also has a washer and dryer on the bottom, and second floor. Beds were comfy enough.A few cons: if you get a golf cart, you have to drive a 3ish minute drive (on a main road)...you can’t take the walk over bridge with the cart. Also, the mosquitos in the pool area were out of control. I know this is somewhat out of their control, but we couldn’t even use the pool (in August). We attempted it and came out with so many bites, even with bug spray. I guess because it’s completely shaded. Overall, it was a great place to stay.
