Nice quiet area, close to the beach.
My husband and I enjoyed the property. Screened in porch and king size bed were a big plus, plenty of towels and linens. Kitchen is well stocked with utensils, pots and pans. Description was accurate, perfect size for two adults. We would stay again.

Amazing trip
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: The cottage is adorable. We loved the screened in porch. It was clean and well kept. We also love that when renting thru this rental company there was no third party tacking on additional charges. We love Spanish Village cottages and only stay there when we come to Port Aransas twice a year. Also the gift cups left for us with the cottage name and personal welcome sign inside the cottage was a great addition.

Great location!
The property was accurate as listed. It didn’t have a laundry room or an ice maker. It also needs a bit of love-several items need attention (bed, door, couch). All work in a pinch. The location is excellent-walking distance to many restaurants, bars, shopping and attractions. We appreciated being allowed to have our dog! Very good, reasonably priced property.

Wonderful Stay
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: What a great place to stay!! We have 2 very large dogs and you would not believe how hard it is to find a place they are welcome. Our little bungalow was very clean. The location was perfect. It’s a little village with other guest getting to share the joy of the beach with their dogs. You are in walking distance to all the food places. The staff was very helpful and pleasant. We will be staying again.

Great place for 2 and pet family.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: This place is very suitable for a couple and pets. It says up to four people but I feel like it would be a little tight for that. Maybe a couple small children would be ok. It was clean and had a comfortable bed. Nice screened porch to enjoy morning coffee. Location is very convenient to anywhere. I would stay here again. Property managers were great communicators.

Very nice cottage
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: One of the nicer places in this community, as it has a parking spot to keep your car off the street. Communication was great! They even assisted with some information after-hours. Place was clean and welcoming.Appreciated the area under the TV to set up a computer/workstation away from the kitchen counter. Able to access our accounts on the TV. Enjoyed relaxing and playing guitar on the screened porch.

Nice little cabin!
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: This little cabin was very cute and well appointed. Comfy bed, great kitchen, and the fenced yard was great for our dog! The only complaint we had was we could not get the heater to turn on. I am sure it doesn't get used often lol. We had a cold snap our second night. By the time we realized the issue it was late and we were settled in for the night, so we just threw an extra blanket on the bed and it was fine. Great location in heart if old town. Loved the place!

Reviewer Comments: great little cottage, loved the screened in porch, clean and in good condition, couple of rips and tears in the screens but great sitting area, had a small fenced yard for our 2 dogs, great location! walkable to many great restaurants, only real disappointment was the shower-so small and narrow , hard to move around, the water spray was awful--like stinging needles in my face-couldn't even finish the shower otherwise we loved it there! will stay there again but highly rec they change the shower head.

Needs a few repairs
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Original Vacation Rental suffered damage prior to our arrival, so alternate lodging quickly arranged (Port A Escapes was extremely helpful). Alternate lodging, Casa Mariposa, was not up to par. Repairs needed: a chair on porch is not safe... throws you backwards. Shower is so small/tight with showerhead so high (unable to reach or adjust) so continuously sprayed in face (no way to rinse legs) (suggest replace w/handheld), bedroom entrance is trip hazard the wood gives way and traps your foot (needs repair). Lastly the bedroom fan clicks constantly w/no way to adjust (suggest giving earplugs). Microwave is so high on the wall even my husband had difficulty with use.

Deceptive Advertising and No Response from Property Manager
Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Property advertised as new central air and upon arrival 2 small window units were in the windows. We called right away and the maintenance person stated the AC hasn't worked in a very long time. He would get back with me on if a larger window unit could be installed to get us through our trip and we never heard back from anyone at Port A Escapes. We spent 3 miserable nights there and had to leave a day early. I could go on and on but only allowed 2000 characters. NO NOT STAY HERE!!

It was ok
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a quaint little rental with a nice screened in porch and all the basics but was very basic. For the price, during off season on a weekday, it was over $200 a night with a $150 cleaning fee but I basically had to do most the cleaning including taking out the trash and running the dishwasher that we didnt have. The bed was makeshift, the shower was dirty and the pressure was intense. It was a good location but there were men working around the property for the good portion of a day so mowing, weedeating and people on the property.
