Nice location
Pros - Great location. Beach is walking distance. Enough space for 2-3 families with kids. Maintenance available 24/7 Cons - Bottom floor smelled unpleasant. No connectivity in 1st and 2nd floor from inside the house. Water leak on first floor, though attended by maintenance caused inconvenience during the stay.

Family Vacation
Property was great size and spacious for everyone. Short walk to the beach. Several lights and fans did not work inside on all floors. All patio lights outside on all floors did not work except for one light in driveway. Washer didn’t work. No utensils or cups downstairs.

Amazing Stay at Pelican’s Plave
We have a. Large family of 7 adults and 6 children. We chose this house because of the three stories so we would have room to spread out! Perfect choice! The house was amazing and only a 2 minute walk to the beach. The community does have a private boardwalk to the beach which was very convenient. We definitely would stay here again!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Friends and I were able to spend some time in Port Aransas, and had a great time. The house is in the perfect location, close to Port A and to Corpus. We loved just hanging out on the deck and tower. The beach was clean, and not crowded. I hope to go back again soon. Thanks for having this place available!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental was clean, comfortable and well maintained. For our size group we used all the bedrooms. The only downside was 2 of the bedrooms were only accessable from the outside. The downstairs was like it's own self-contained unit. It was very nice.

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: I stayed with a group of friends this past weekend and this home was great! It was very clean, air conditioner and all appliances worked, and it was very close to the beach. There is a boardwalk right on site that heads to the beach and is only a 3-5 min walk. I have stayed at a couple other places in port a and this one has been my favorite. I will hope to get this place again next year and recommend to anyone looking for a vacation beach house!!!

PJs Stay
The property was clean, convenient, comfortable with all the appliances, kitchen wares, & normal room needs that we might want & it was all decorated in a tasteful and artsy manner! The property was well equipped, better than we expected! It worked out very well for our whole family, And it was also fairly close to the beach, which is where we spent a great deal of time! One thing that you might want to fix is the wood flooring in the living room hallway on the 2nd floor. It's bowing and coming apart. Thank you!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We rented our first beach house. We have always stayed in condos. However, our family has grown so much we now need a much larger space. This beach house was perfect for us. The kids and their wives and children slept in the downstairs apartment. The rest of us slept in the upstairs quarters. Place was clean, cool and comfortable. Close to the beach and the pool was small but nice.

Pelican's Place
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 had a terrific time at the Pelicans Place. I would highly recommend this location to others considering a rental just a nit out of town. For us the location was perfect as we didn't want to be to close to the Spring Break crowds. The only negative I could say about this house was the disconnect from the lower lover. We had 5 couples in our party and two of them who slept on the first level had to go outside in the rain to come up to the 2nd floor main level to join the rest of us for dinner or just socializing.

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: Our mother is 90 years and has always loved the beach since growing up in California on the beach! She has leukemia and many health issues that come along with age. But....she is determined to carry on with our family traditions and one is always a yearly trip to Padre Islands! We chose this property so she would not have to climb stairs and it worked out perfectly! We love the Lost Colonies area and have stayed several times in different homes on property. It is one of the best and most convenient beach front properties for all ages! This is our family time and love the privacy to just enjoy each other!!

Plenty of Space for Multiple Families!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Enjoyed the House! Plenty of beds and space for multiple families. Kitchen is stocked for all your cooking needs. Unfortunately, the beach access was a problem for us. This location only provides a walking boardwalk. note - no golf cart access. We Had canopies, coolers, toys so we had to drive to beach access 2 (2 miles) or beach access 1 (5.7 miles). Bathrooms very clean, beds clean, kitchen clean! Living area needs some attention. Overall, lovely house. But we will not stay here again due to location.

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 had a wonderful stay at this house and the management has a great app. to help with everything. Beautiful views of the shore from the top deck, and a really short walk to the beach on the boardwalk. house was very clean with ample towels and utensils. A large washer & dryer helped our group a lot. The only bumps to the rental was, the fridge door was hard to keep shut,no hookups on t.v. in kids room for Xbox & video games, and no grill. Other than these three little probs., the house was a fantastic place for our vacation. The grandkids really enjoyed the pool after coming back from the beach. (On a side note, it is in a HOA, only 4 autos allowed in drive, with no street parking.)

Needs Attention
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Pelicans Place is getting a little run down and needs some improvements. The plumbing needs attention, the 2nd level floor near the dinning room, feels like you might fall through in a couple of spots. The washer is extremely loud, the dryer was broken and couldn't be used. Maintenance came out and fixed some of the drain issues and tried to fix the dryer, but was unsuccessful. We had to use a local laundry to wash and dry our clothes, which took time away from our vacation. For the price we paid, I expected everything to be in working condition. I recommend that someone does a complete walk through before anyone is allowed to stay at this location.I wouldn't recommend this property until these issues are completely repaired.

Unclean and locked out!
Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Port Escapes company requires a 4:00 check in. We checked in at 4:00 to discover that the first floor was locked and no key to be find. The Port Escapes company told us three different options to get in to find out in the last phone call conversation that there was a key to unlock the first floor. Called back at 5:03 and was given the after hours phone line and reported that we did not have a key. We were told by the port escapes after hours person that someone would call us back. Nobody called us back. We did not have access to the first floor which had to additional bedrooms that we paid for! Terrible management company and found the first floor dirty with dead bugs! Terrible place to stay!

Disappointed
The reviews are very much true. The listing say remodel home but the 2nd floor is very uneven, there a spot on the floor that Dips in and feels like your going to fall through the floor. Bunkbeds are not very sturdy they wabble alot they look like there about to collapse. Sheets were not cleaned some rooms had sand in the sheets, we even found a poop stain on one of the of the beds. There was dead wasps on the windows. Some of the ceiling fans do not work. The washer is extremely loud. Bottom sliding door does not lock they have a stick on there so it wond open. Overall for the amout of money that we paid is was not worth it. They hype the price up they actually should really look into that 2nd floor that's a safety issue. Oh yes and also kids couldn't play outside on the grass due to there so many stickers in the ground they keep gettingpokedby them, I am not overreacting there was alot, even one that stay in the house step on one. The only good that came out of this home was how close it was to the beach, other then that this home needs alot if work, they actually should rent it out without fixing it 1st someone gonna get hurt. 1 star for me not going back.

Beautiful House-Perfect Location
We had a wonderful week staying at Pelicans Place LCV 23. The walk to the beach was not far and the views were great! There is an inside staircase to the 3rd floor master room (the house description says there is not). A grill is NOT provided even though there is one in the pictures. Luckily we had brought our own grill and griddle. According to the HOA regulations a grill can not be with 10' of the house. This was an inconvenience, since it rained the majority of the time we were there. But the house was fully stocked with everything you need to cook with!
