Wonderful house!!!

I stayed here with my family recently and this house was perfect! Very clean and had everything we needed! Short walk to beach or a min drive to beach if you want to take car instead. The golf cart was an amazing perk and made everything so convenient! Definitely recommend this place and will be coming back.

Awesome Place

House was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The location was awesome, we enjoyed sitting on the porch looking at the ocean! Unfortunately the cart was being worked on, but Kenny was gracious and got us a cart to use during our time there. I would for sure recommend this place.

Sea Turtle-best getaway

We enjoyed our stay. The rental had everything we would need and the coffee onsite was awesome. The golf cart was a Huge plus. We went riding to the beach and throughout town. What a great location!

Enjoyed the stay!

We enjoyed our stay in Port A! After looking at the last review, I was a bit concerned. I reached out to the property manager and they quickly responded to my concern, sharing that they had spent time making improvements. Overall, things were great! There's a bit of a fishy smell in the fridge/freezer, but it's not bad and the manager has been informed. A bit irritated that a previous tenant was careless and perhaps a bit self absorbed. Bring a cooler and keep your bait there chucklehead. The property is a short walk to the beach. The golf cart was a huge benefit! Loved it!

Fun at the Beach!

We had GREAT time staying at the Happy Green Beach House! It is just a quick walk down a private path to 16 miles of flat beach. Perfect! There is also a golf cart provided which was a real treat. Never having been to Port Aransas before we didn't know how wonderful it was to have this included in the rental. Once we arrived we quickly figured out that this is a big bonus. Both bathrooms have been updated which made those after beach showers even better! We enjoyed morning coffee on the deck and a glass of wine in the evening while grilling dinner. All in all this was a lovely getaway for our Family! We look forward to returning again next Summer.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
There were several major problems with this rental property.Upon entering we noticed a foul smell. When we opened the fridge and freezer to store food we were hit with the revolting smell of fish. This property has obviously allowed fishermen to store dead fish in freezer/fridge. We could not use the ice and had to throw away anything like grapes, blueberries, lettuce as the stench stuck to everything. I had to bleach out my icechest and containers we brought home. Worse is the bottom step was broken in half. I sprained my ankle and will see a doctor as it is not better after 10 days. My son-in-law went face first in the dirt carrying items to the car. I am 67 and have had 4 spine surgeries. If it had been me I would be suing. One of my sons also twisted his ankle coming down the steps. The third bedroom is virtually unuseable. There is a window which has no curtain or cover that beams in the neighbor's lights all night. There is also no door for this "bedroom". There was disgusting mold in the coffee maker as it had not been cleaned out and dishes that were so greasy that it was gross. Avoid this rental at all costs unless you love the odor of dead fish.

Perfect Property

This property was perfect in every way. Location was awesome and the house is settled in a really small private neighborhood. The house is beautifully equipped with everything anyone could need. There was even beach toys and chairs etc. The golf cart was in very good condition and our whole trip cost us just $5 in gas. We toured everywhere in the golf cart so this was a really big asset to the property and kept our vehicle safe and clean at the house. The host was awesome and answered all questions with speed. The house was also decorated very tastefully with a cute seaside theme. Thoroughly recommend this property for everyone.

Great vacay in Port A

We traveled to Port A for a family wedding and beach vacation. Kenny's place was conveniently located just off a beach access road and had all that we needed. Having the golf cart was a major plus as that appears to be the main mode of transport.
