Rest and relaxation await you in this 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom first-floor condo in Port Aransas, Texas which can sleep up to six guests.

There are two bar stools at the island and a round table to the side to offer a more intimate seating for two. In the living room, an overstuffed couch with tropical accent pillows and three armchairs make room for your whole group to watch TV or look out the windows at the dunes. Notice the decorative stars which give you the flair of Texas. The master bedroom (BR1) holds a King bed with a beautiful dark wicker head- and footboard with crisp white bedding and beautiful blue accents and a wall-mounted TV for your viewing. The weathered-looking chest continues the beach vibe into the bedroom. An attached full bathroom gives you privacy with granite vanity, a large tile shower with a glass door enclosure and a closet. The second bedroom (BR2) sleeps four guests with two Full beds. The playful shark-themed bedspreads match the surfboard hanging above them. This bedroom also has a TV, closet and chest.

The furniture is outdated and the beds are too old, time for new beds, couch was worn out too, time to retire that couch and get a new one, pillows should support your head and neck not just look pretty, good thing I brought my own

We had a great time, the location is great, the swimming pool is clean and big, close to restaurants and stores and walking distance to the beach. It was a perfect size for our family.

Lovely condo, perfectly situated

We visited to attend Sandfest and consider purchasing a home in Port Aransas. The condo was clean, the furnishings delightful and the location perfectly located for our purposes. Only two minor drawbacks: Noise from the unit above and headlights from the parking spot outside the master bedroom from an intoxicated and clearly angry resident/renter/visitor. Other than that, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Good Stay

Had a fun time in Port Aransas. The condo was located in a great location. There were a couple issues with the cleanliness of the bathrooms, but overall everything was good. We would stay again.

Fantastic Getaway!

Condo was very clean, had everything we could possibly need, so close to the beach, it was great! If you have any disabled persons in your party, be aware the curb is high and the handicapped ramp may be a distance away from the door, not the property owners fault of course, being on the first floor was good. Communication between myself and the property owner was great and the credit towards beach equipment rental was such a big help! I have nothing but fond memories of my time in Port Aransas and the Island Retreat complex!

Great location to the Beach!

Island Retreat was a great little place to stay for our 3 day beach vacation. Our corner unit was right next to the boardwalk to the beach. Super convenient as we didn't really want to get a car permit to park on the beach. The condo was nicely appointed. The rug in the living area definitely needs to be changed out. It was stained with black marks everywhere which I assume is beach tar. There were also big chunks of beach tar stuck to the kitchen floor adjacent to the rug (which I assume is where the black marks on the rug come from.) Overall it was a nice place to stay it just needs a little cleaning TLC.

Clean and convenient

This property is perfect for accessing the beach, with the boardwalk right off the back porch. The resort has many great amenities to offer, such as the pools and sand volleyball. Our unit was nicely updated, comfortable, and had just about everything we needed for a short stay in Port A. The location is central to everything. We would definitely recommend this rental and return for another visit.

Very comfortable, clean, and great proximity to the beach. We spent most of our time fishing, but the location made it ideal for us.
