The property was exactly as described, clean, well maintained, and ready for our arrival. Any questions we had were answered quickly, and the level of customer service really stood out. It's clear that the team takes pride in both their properties and their guests' experience. We made wonderful memories with family and friends and couldn't have asked for a better vacation. Thank you to the entire Life in Paradise team for your outstanding hospitality. We look forward to booking with you again!

We were extremely disappointed with the condition of the home upon arrival. The property was not…read moreaccurately represented in the listing, and several issues raised serious safety and habitability concerns for our family. We found evidence of mold, rotting doorframes, exposed electrical outlets, exterior doors with severely rusted or missing doorknobs, and bunk beds that were unstable due to missing screws. We booked the home as a family with 3 children ages 3 and under, which clearly there were safety concerns upon arrival. Outside of those concerns, the furniture was stained and filthy and the whole place wreaked of bleach. We documented everything and contacted the hosts as we packed up and left to find another place to stay. Unfortunately, they denied our refund request and eventually stopped responding altogether. We then escalated the issue to Airbnb support. To Airbnb's credit, after reviewing the documentation and condition of the property, they ultimately refunded us in full. The entire situation was stressful and not at all what we expected when booking this home. The listing needs to be removed from all platforms until thoroughly addressed, and the management company needs new leadership in place. I cannot recommend them in the meantime.

Peaceful when we wanted peace; fun when we wanted fun. No need to fuss over whether or not I brought everything I needed for the beach. If I forgot something or needed to pee - the house was 200 yards away. Everyone could kind of do their own thing (chill on the deck in the sun or take a nap in the shade, post up on the beach, watch a movie, cook) and at the same time, there was room for everyone to be a family together in the evening. We did The Black Marlin for dinner the first night (spectacular food and pretty good service). We also took advantage of the kitchen for a home-cooked meal the second night. I'm a pretty picky eater and a picky cook, and this kitchen had all the equipment I needed for the weekend. Most importantly - it was the best two nights of sleep I have had in a long, long time. So relaxing.

This is a cozy cottage that we stayed during our weekend in Port A. It was absolutely charming. The…read moresingle room had such a comfortable bed and single chair for resting. It was equipped with a fridge, microwave, and dishes. The host also included extra towels, beach towels, dishwashing liquid for the dishes, shower necessities and a broom to sweep if we wanted. I loved the extra outdoor shower to rinse the sand off and the porch chairs to sit and relax. Although it had WiFi, I loved that it did not have a television as I caught up on some reading (I had an iPad and headphones for hubby to watch Netflix ). Book on Airbnb and find this gem, Flora outdid herself fixing this place up. I also loved the original paintings.

Flora and her family are great, and have worked so hard to build this wonderful little spot along the beautiful Texas coast. When my family says "the beach" we mean Angler's Court in Port A.

The homes are so nice, the beach is fantastic, the amenities (basketball, pickleball, fitness center, swimming pools, fishing ponds, and much more) provided our family--including a 13-year-old son and 16-year-old daughter--with fun activities, and the staff took great care of us. In fact, we enjoyed it so much, we went to the real estate office and now are working towards a goal of buying a place here. In the meantime, we'll be coming back as often as possible and renting when we do. My family and I give Cinnamon Shores our highest recommendation!

We stayed at Bella Vista - Managed by SILVER SANDS VACATION RENTALS - in Port Aransas in April…read more2026, paying a lot for a rental that fell far short of what we paid for. When we arrived, the property had not been properly cleaned or inspected. Issues we encountered included: * Sheets with hair on them * FILTHY floors throughout the home - not sand from the beach, dirt from floors that had not ben mopped or cleaned. We had to wear socks most of the trip to keep our feet clean. * A dead, decaying bird on the patio by the pool * A dirty grill (and no way to clean it) * A dirty pool we never once used * Dirty appliances * Non-functioning ceiling fans, stove burners, and bedroom lights * Most TVs not working * 2nd floor patio door that wouldn't open A technician was sent to address the TV issues and we want to be fair -- he was polite, worked hard, and also cleaned the grill and removed the dead bird. We appreciated his effort. However, he had to come in and out of the house most of the day, which significantly disrupted our family vacation. We also had to spend our first hours their washing bedding for seven bedrooms. A property manager never came to the home or has ever contacted us. We were told they weren't feeling well that day, which we understand -- things happen. But with nearly a dozen issues, many of them cleanliness problems that should have been caught before check-in, it would have meant a great deal to have a manager acknowledge the situation. We have yet to hear from anyone from Silver Sands regarding this. We reached out to Silver Sands Vacation Rentals regarding the issues and they did not respond appropriately. For what we paid (including a $600 cleaning fee), we deserved a clean, well-maintained, operational and properly inspected home. We had many other properties to choose from and wish very much that we had chosen differently. We would NOT recommend this property or this management company based on our experience and will not stay at a Silver Sands Property again.
