  This house was perfect for our family! Love the large living area and the master. The bunk room was perfect for grandkids. We have rented many houses in Port A and this ranks up as one of the favorites! There was an issue with a refrigerator being broken and the new one delayed, and PAE brought a loaner fridge in and up to the kitchen. While not “perfect” they went out of the way for it to be as close to it as possible. Stuff happens, things break, and PAE took it in hand and found a solution! We will definitely be back!

  Amy G from Austin, Tx recommends this vacation rental

  We had a wonderful stay at "A Shore Thing" this past weekend. We had 3 families (kids from 3 to 16 years old) and everyone had plenty of room. Grandma appreciated the elevator and ADA options since she id currently using a walker. The downstairs area is like a separate home with a full kitchen, den, bedrooms, and bathrooms. The upstairs kitchen was truly a delight for me to prepare family meals for our large group. They have everything needed to cook in this stocked kitchen including lovely serving dishes, tons of plates and glasses, nice/sharp knives, good pans, and even 2 crockpots. This has not been the case at other homes we've stayed at in Port A. Also, the photos don't quite do the interior justice...even nicer in person. This is our favorite home and we will be back!

  Great home, convenient 200 yard till you are in the water at the beach, less than 2 miles from the palmilla golf course. You don't have to worry about parking on the beach because of the easy 2 min walk to get there. The home was in great condition and very spacious. A ton of bedrooms and sleeping arrangements along with plenty of seating and common areas for us to hang out at. The balcony was in a great position for hanging out during the evenings. We had a great time here and I would absolutely recommend staying here.

  Overall the accomodations were very nice, clean, and modern. The neighborhood area was very nice. Kitchen was well equipped. It slept 16 but needed a bit more explanation of exact beds and sleeping arrangements. A few maintenance issues needed attention and a water leak in kitchen caused a bit of an inconvenience with flood alarm that was connected incorrectly to system and caused police to be dispatched. Port Aransas police are very polite and respectful!
  Walk to beach was great and neighborhood pool very clean. Management company was very easy to contact by phone and through app.

  We rented this for the full occupancy of 14. It had enough beds and what we thought might be a couple of smallish ones, but doable. Get there and find out that 8 of the 14 spots are in one room. Ugh! This house has a fantastic great room/kitchen that mostly made up for the bedroom kids are all adults and prefer privacy for couples. The property is also within walking distance of the beach...also awesome! It was clean as could be and was fully stocked for almost any little thing you could need. Very nice home!
  This house would be exceptional for a few couples with a lot of smaller kids.

  Sandesh P from Austin, TX recommends this vacation rental

  We had a great time, over the Sandfest Weekend in April 2017. We were a huge group of 5 couples plus kids & the house was large enough to accommodate all of us. Only thing that threw us off a bit was that the 5 Bedrooms mentioned, included a small room with the convertible sofa couch. I would not have counted that as a Bedroom.
  Overall very new house, with all appliances being quite technologically advanced. Almost all of us work in technology field, but still had difficult time figuring out the stove, garbage disposal, etc. But the property managers were quick to respond to any issues we had.
  
  Beach is a quick walk away from this house.
  We had a great vacation, and would recommend this house to anyone with a large group/ family.

  • Manager Responded on 4/28/2017

    We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay. We are very sorry that the hide-abed couch was misrepresented as a fifth bedroom and will have that corrected. We hope you will think of us again the next time you are in Port A.

  This was our second year to stay at "A Shore Thing". We absolutely love this house. It is perfect for our large extended family. House is so close to the beach and town. Kids love this place. Community pool and outdoor shower are so great! All of the amenities are so first class. The only negative I have is with the refrigerators. Both times that we stayed we had issues with them not getting cold enough to keep our food from spoiling. Which is a shame to pay this much for such a state of the art house to not have cold refrigerators. We had to use ice chest.

  • Manager Responded on 3/23/2017

    Thank you for staying with us. We wanted to let you know that both refrigerators have been replaced. We hope to see you again.

  Such a beautiful home and so convenient to the beach. The beds were amazingly comfortable and couches inviting . Appliances were modern and the kitchen was well stocked with utensils. Our group of 11 ladies spent many hours on the back balcony reading, visiting and solving the world's problems. It's a "smart house", maybe smarter than us as we had some technical difficulties the first 2 days with the stove top, elevator and TV, but the service professionals were quick to respond. We had a home church service with a keyboard, hymns, the Lord's Supper and a sweet Bible devotion. We called our group The Beach Church of the Sisters Cousins Aunts and Friends. What a fun time we had! A fantastic 4 days in beautiful Port A!

  This vacation home rental was everything we hoped it would be. The home is very modern, completely stocked with everything you would need except food and is a very short walk across the boardwalk to the beach! There is also a pool on site if you want to avoid the sand for the day. The home is a "smart house" and is very modern with every convenience you could possibly want. We had four families stay here and we had ample room for everyone. The pictures are a very, accurate representation of the entire house. We were extremely pleased and would definitely stay here again if we needed a house this size! We did the entire check-in and out by phone and had no issues with the agency responsible for renting the property. Everything went very smoothly!

  Jennifer C from San Angelo, tx recommends this vacation rental

  We took our own ramp which allowed him to safely enter the elevator. It was a tight fit as he is a power wheelchair user. Someone needed to close the door behind him after he entered. Also, the rooms on the floor with the roll-in-shower were not big enough for him to transfer out of his wheelchair so he slept in the main bedroom on the second floor. Also, the bed was too tall for him but others would not have an issue probably. He did use the master toilet as the other bathroom had a cabinet over the toilet which doesn't work with his toilet chair.
  The alarm for water leaks went off and the staff came instantly to find there was no leak. My Mother was home alone and would have been upset had they not come so soon.
  The weird algae or seaweed on the beach was the biggest negative but we would stay here again.
