The experience was great! We did have an issue with our door and had to get a new code. We loved our location! We wish there was a gate on the bottom floor balcony that lead to the pool. It would be nice to have restrooms outside of the rooms when using the pool. The room was wonderful, clean, and the AC worked great!

Comfortable place to stay, just the right distance from town minimizing any crowds on the beach. Comfortable bed and good climate control. Outside view is limited to back of the dunes. MB shower needs attention to remove smell. Washer & dryer should come with iron and ironing board. Need non-stick pans.

Much Needed Vacation
Our condo was clean and perfect for our small family. The property management company was very kind and quickly helped when we were locked out of our condo upon arrival. It was a short drive into town for shopping and eating and the beach and pool were perfect for our toddler to play at. Would go back again!

This condo is absolutely gorgeous it has everything a family needs. The rooms were spacious and clean the decor was up to date and beautiful. The bathrooms and showers make you feel like your in a luxury hotel I loved it. The only tiny thing I would suggest is updating the mattress and pillows.

Lovely place to stay
The condo was beautiful and perfect for a family with young children. We were one door away from the pool access on the first floor. The pool was nice, but could have been skimmed a little more often. Close enough to town that if you need to go it’s not a far drive but far enough away to feel isolated and away from all the noise. The only thing the condo was lacking was extra blankets. There’s a sofa bed, but no blanket for it.

Great room, very updated and clean! We have stayed at Grand Carribean numerous times and always pleased with the property! The boardwalk to the beach is very nice, but was disappointed this year that the area at the end of the boardwalk which I thought was dedicated to the condo renters, instead had many RV’s parked for the weekend and we had to walk further to get to an area we could set up our tent for the day! Overall, very nice place to stay!

Great for Our Short Getaway
The condo was clean, well-equipped, and in a great location. The pool and beach were easily accessible. We went when vehicular access was prohibited so the location and walk to the beach were perfect. It was a good size place. The only downside was the preexisting damage. I am not sure how long the damage had been there but we took pictures of the damage to ensure we were not charged. I would've like to have seen a checklist of some sort to note any damage at check-in. Luckily, we were not held responsible. The app was very convenient. Overall, it was a great stay.

Great Stay at Grand Caribbean
We loved this place. It is more secluded than staying close to downtown. Access to the beach was just a quick walk down the private boardwalk. The condo was clean, fresh, cool, and just a great place to be when not at the pool or the beach. We didn't have our kids with us, but it would be a great place for kids. The pool was never crowded, and neither was the beach. We highly recommend this place!

Port Aransas Vacation
My 2 boys and I loved meeting my long time friend and her daughter here for a short escape. The condo is beautifully renovated and decorated. We loved everything about it. There are no beach towels and only 2 old chairs provided for the beach. Come prepared! We also had a hard time finding out the wi-fi network and password but found it on the actual modem. This condo is perfect for a peaceful escape. It is located away from other condos and resorts. I recommend staying here if you are looking to get away and in no need of extra activities for older kids. The pool is perfect for young children.

This was the first time I rented a condo and didn't know what to expect. I have to say I wasn't disappointed!! The condo was the perfect size for my family. It was clean and conveniently located on the 1st floor which made moving our stuff easy! The beds were comfortable and the condo was very clean.. I would definitely stay again!!

Nice rental
The condo itself was great. We did have a few minor complaints. The master bathroom had a bad light overhead that consistently flashed rapidly - making it impossible to turn on the bathroom light. The master bedroom did not cool down like the 2nd bedroom. It would be great if there was a list of cable/tv channels available. It is a little further out from town so golf carts can't be driven there. You CAN rent a golf cart and drive to the condo from the beach.

Port A Family Vacation
Our family stayed in this unit last year and really liked it, so we decided to return again this summer. It has a well-equipped kitchen, and the decor is not as over-the-top "beachy" as many of the other units in this complex. (Which is a plus in my opinion!) The flooring in the main part of the unit is much nicer than some of the other units, as well. The owner has done some nice updates this year, including adding a comfy sofa. We enjoyed it just as much this year as last year and hope to return again in the future. A fun family vacation!

Port A Review
The condo was very well-equipped. The only complaint I have is that there wasn't soap and shampoo in both bathrooms.

The receptionist at Port A was not very helpful. Also, information needs to be much clearer that 4:00 is a very firm time for check-in. At 3:45, the receptionist still wouldn't let us check in.
