Longing for surf and sand, we scheduled a long weekend in Port Aransas and found a fantastic house within 5 minutes of the beach. "Villa 4 Rita" is dog friendly and can sleep a total of eight. The setup includes two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the other with twin beds. An open loft sleeps 4 but it has a low ceiling and the stairs are treacherous. Melissa made our trip fantastic. We got her take on restaurants and took her up on a few of her suggestions. Check in and check out were as easy as the beach breeze.

They offered less than one night refund when the water heater and water pressure was bad 5/6 days. Seriously, do not rent from these people. Between poor communication, lack of value for the customers and failure to make it right... it's not worth it. The houses are stocked with the most minimum of supplies. They did not offer to relocate us to different home. The downstairs flooded when the storms came because the weather stripping was bad. They text me before we even arrived that the stove wasn't working and they would provide a hot plate.. I have worked in properly management, I travel and am a travel agent. I deal with unreasonable people all the time... I was not high maintenance or unreasonable... they rented the house in the condition after they already had my money and refuse to refund. They offered last than one night stay.

Either crossing the bay bridge on one side, or taking the short ferry on the other was the line of demarcation between ordinary life and beach life. But over the years, those condos have become more and more expensive to rent. And now, no longer having school-aged kids to accommodate, we can do different things, like go in October (when it's still 80 degrees). Just south of those two condo towers (of course on State Highway 361, like everything else on Mustang Island) is the Lost Colony set of beach houses. This year we booked house #2, and I prefer it greatly to tower-life. First, assuming you'll have more than two people, the cost per person beats the adjacent condos. Also, it's just more personal to me to just walk out your unit and be at ground level, and not have to wait for an elevator, etc, or having to hear people run up and down the hallway outside your door at all hours. We were only there for three days, so didn't need to take advantage of the available laundry equipment in our unit, though my mom-in-law was there longer and that seemed to be very handy for her. Our unit was decorated in a "Pier One Beach" motif, so you'll never forget where you are even with the blinds closed. And our unit (not sure if all do) even had Netflix. Downsides are that the curtains are all pretty sheer, so trying to sleep in with the morning sun could be a problem if you're used to pitch black like we are. Much of the sheets didn't seem to fit the beds, when we wanted to swap out when we left and another guest was going to take our place. We didn't really use the lower floor bedroom with the bunk beds, but if you've got a couple kids, that would probably be a plus. The kitchen was pretty much stocked well enough for us (though we did buy a couple things, like trashbags, when we got our groceries), but the upstairs shower was pretty nice and big if that's important to you. The A/C unit inside was in the main living room though, so that was fairly loud and distracting when it was running, and with the thin curtains and not well insulated windows, probably ran more than it should have. Though when it ran, it blew cold and hard! Almost so much that it was difficult to find a balance between too cold when it was running and blowing on you, and warm when it stopped. We were not bothered with having to take our trash to the dumpsters by the main road. All in all, we liked it. It being gated and smaller helped with the privacy. Honestly, the biggest complaint I had was the loud A/C in the living room. So, first world problem. I'll put this just shy of four stars, so round up.

We booked a last minute cacelation on Memorial day weekend. The transaction was quick and the rental agreement was emailed with access codes for entry. After driving for hours with the kiddos, we arrived around lunch time. Our cottage was beautiful... perfect in fact. The theme was "Endless Summer" and was wonderfuly decorated in a beach theme. Our unit had a queen bed and a pull out couch and kitchen. Our inlaws were in the unit behind us and lets the kids stay in their extra room... which allowed for a romantic weekend alone. Restaruants, fishing and parks are all in walking distance. Hands down one of the best vacations I had. If you are ever in the Rockport area give Lisa a call and stay in one of her 5 cottages... sit on the beach... feet in the sand... sun on your face... and thank me later.

If I pay you to hire the home photographer, do I own the photos and can I use them in the future? Can I have a receipt from 3rd party vendors you are paying on my behalf? Are my profits reduced by any additional costs or fees that you incur in the operation of your business? Can you modify the nightly rate between weekends and weekdays to encourage weekday rentals at a reduced rate? Can you guarantee that our property will be available every unoccupied day of the rental period and not be listed as unavailable due to staff shortages or unavailability of cleaning crews? Are your house cleaning crews licensed and bonded and has anyone ever reported an issue with the conduct of your house cleaning crew while at their house. Do you record telephone conversations and meetings? Do your homework and understand that, in my opinion, the owner of Yknot Realty, operates her business with the intent to profit from the use of the owner's property without regard for achieving maximum income for the owners. Additionally, in my opinion, attempted to use her large physical stature and a raised voice to intimidate me when questioned.

When…read moreI contacted them to inquire about the deposit I was told by who I am assuming was the manager (Malynda) that they typically do not encounter this with the property because of the caliber of clientele they typically rent too. I agreed with some of the charges but not all. It took over 30 days to get an itemized statement (which is required by the property code). They changed the rules on the posting for the property after I kept asking for the itemized statement. If you have another option rent through someone else. They have a tendency to rate properties to a specific clientele.

Cotter Port Aransas, Texas 78373 800-45-COAST (361) 749-5919 Attention Chamber of Comerce & BBB members: To whom it may concern; I would like to report a dishonest rental company/BeeGees Coastal Quarters. This is my complaint: The other reviews on Yelp are correct about this property manager BeeGee not being honest & giving deposits back. My hubby & I stayed with BeeGee over a week Thanksgiving holiday 2014 & we had a lovely time. We ALWAYS bring our OWN linens & towels we NEVER use ANYONE else's. Hotel, condo or otherwise. She told us bc we were so neat she would give us a great deal on our XMAS vacation rental with her & she would wave the cleaning fee bc we use our own linens & are neat freaks. She said she would just transfer the deposit over to the new XMAS reservations. We made the XMAS reservations, she held the deposit over & we went for XMAS 2014/New Years 2015. We left the house spotless. We NEVER received any deposits back of any kind. I phoned her a few weeks back to ask her about it & inquire about reservations for another holiday & I was informed our deposit would be double & still no refund on either of the rentals from Last year. We have now found a new rental company (Palm Bay rentals/pipalmbay.com) that is much better & a whole lot more honest.
