Awesome Port Aransas Beachfront! Unobstructed Ocean Views Top Floor, 4 Bedroom

Our JVRAwesome, Port Aransas Beach, Beachfront, Top Floor, Penthouse Condo, "JVRAwesome Beachfront!" has a totally unobstructed gulf of Mexico view from a gulf facing wall of glass doors and windows that span the living room , dining area and main bedroom. Let the view and sounds of the gulf soothe the stress away. Located on Port Aransas Beach (Not Holiday Beach)

Our top floor, beachfront penthouse includes a large living area with sofas and a large screen TV, spacious dining and bar area, plus 4 separate bedrooms and 2 full baths provide plenty of room for playing games and relaxing. There are 5 Televisions. A door between the living area and three of the bedrooms ensures that night owls and early risers do not disturb each other. We have a washer and dryer in our condo.

The living area looks directly out on the beautiful waters of the gulf of Mexico and has a sliding door to the oceanfront balcony. The living room has a sofa, loveseat, two comfortable chairs and a large screen TV.

The dining area looks directly out on the gulf of Mexico and has a sliding door to the oceanfront balcony. There is a beautiful dining room table with additional seating for four people at the counter top bar.

Island Retreat is a great place to spend time with family and friends. This smoke-free condominium is beachfront . . . you simply walk over the dunes on the boardwalk to the flat part of the beach. Two pools! Pickleball, volleyball, shuffleboard, tennis, basketball all on the 25 acres of Island Retreat to enjoy! Fish House and Boat parking on-site.

The beach is awesome for playing with the kids, acting like a kid yourself, enjoying the scenery, taking a long stroll, a morning jog, reading a book, or delighting in the last rays of a gorgeous sunset. If you don't feel like getting sandy at the beach relax by one of the two pools or play some tennis, volleyball, shuffleboard or basketball.

Or simply treasure pushing your child in a swing on the playground as they giggle with enjoyment.

Port Aransas has some great restaurants for when you feel like eating out (or you didn't have any luck fishing).

If you feel like exploring there are plenty of options - scuba diving, snorkeling, sailing, deep sea fishing, Aransas Wildlife Refuge and Whooping Crane Habitat or the beach!

Please note that while the listing frequently states "one night minimum" there are times throughout the year when we have more than a "one night minimum" even though it may say "one night minimum".

There is a 3% additional fee that will be due for payments made by credit or debit cards.

After all requested guest and tenant information and all payments (including 3%) is received the check-in information and code will be sent. Thank you.

College roommates trip
We Loved staying here on the beach! We all turn 70 this yr, so we wanted a beach get away. Port A seems like an unknown Gem! Not crowded like the FL or CA beaches. We rented a golf cart & explored the beach. Also the Dolphin sunset cruise was nice! Great seaside restaurants… With beautiful views of the harbor!

Beautiful home. We had everything we needed. Amazing sunrises each morning. Beach was superb. Just a short walk to the very nice clean pool. Elevator was great for our 95 year old dad. This is a fantastic property.

Amazing Place. Anxious Visit
Love the property and appreciate the owner providing their mobile phone and quickly responding to any inquiries. My only complaint is that my family and I feared the excessive rules. For example, there are strict guidelines regarding the ac: certain vents open at certain angles, and thermostat set at 76° “or else.” After following the rules, most bedrooms were still too warm and I’m glad we brought additional cooling fans. If you break the fan remote or misplace any remotes, there’s a large fine. Wash your towels and put in dryer before you leave. Not a fan of having to do laundry on vacation. When we started the washer to wash the towels, there was a terribly moldy odor coming from the machine. Note on washer/dryer: do NOT put anything with sand in the washer/dryer. Again, afraid to wash anything at all. Our stay felt more like a test than a vacation. We spent a lot of money on this condo to relax and enjoy ourselves, the whole time we felt on guard and uneasy for fear we would be fined for the slightest mishaps. It's possible the owner is not aware how the directive messaging can be perceived. Messaging felt more like a syllabus for a college undergrad class versus a "welcome and please be mindful" during your stay.

Great condo for families!
My family absolutely loved staying at this condo. We have small children and an infant, so the fact that we were located on the beach was a lifesaver. The pool was also large so we didn’t feel crowded up against other families. The actual condo was perfect for us as well. The large dining table and kitchen island provided plenty of space for our nightly dinners (after grilling by the pool) and everyone had their own space…kids played games and the adults enjoyed spending time on the balcony in the mornings and evenings. We hope to return here next summer!

Perfect Get Away
The condo was even better than the pictures online. We felt so at home. A well taken care of unit. It was a total relaxing time away to enjoy time off and family. It was well stocked and spacious. We would definitely book this condo again if we go to the beach. I loved watching the sun rise, and the ocean front. Thank you again.

Beautiful property, wonderful views. A cozy get away stocked with everything you can possibly need. We enjoyed cooking in the kitchen, hanging out on the patio and relaxing while watching movies at night. The open concept allows you to see the amazing ocean view no matter where you are. Host was welcoming and friendly. Can’t wait to visit again.

Great Condo!
The condo was very nice and clean and in a great location close to the beach. My only complaint and it was a big one for us was the master bed was SO uncomfortable. It had 2 huge, deep body impressions right where you would lay so that you would almost get stuck in them. Time to replace that matress!
