Stylish Beach Retreat, Pool, Golf Cart Zone & Pet-Friendly | Costa Bahia

Port Aransas has a way of slowing everything down — the ferry line, the salt breeze, the short walk from your door to the water — and this Costa Bahia 204 drops you right into that pace. Located on the second floor, this coastal one-bedroom, one-bath retreat sleeps six and was styled for unhurried beach-town days, with breezy, tastefully decorated interiors that recent guests have called both super clean and genuinely comfortable. The AvantStay team is quick to reply and happy to share local suggestions, so you can arrive, exhale, and let Port A do the rest.

Inside, the living room is set up for easy evenings — plush seating and a smart TV for movie nights, plus flexible sleeping that opens up room for the whole group. The dining area is ready for shared meals, and the fully equipped kitchen handles everything from a quick snack before the pool to a full dinner after a day on the sand. The king suite is the place to wind down; guests single out how comfortable the bed is and how well the a/c holds up through a Texas summer. In-home laundry and two on-site parking spots round out the details — and that second space is a real bonus if you rent a golf cart to buzz around town, the way so many Port A visitors do.

Costa Bahia itself is a laid-back, pet-friendly community built around a sparkling pool: loungers for stretching out, picnic tables for a casual lunch, and a grill for cooking as the day cools off. There's small-boat parking on site if you're towing a rig, and additional units in the community if your group grows beyond one condo. Beyond the gate, the best of Port A is minutes away — wide Gulf beaches for swimming and shelling, some of the best fishing on the Texas coast, dolphin-watching and birding along the shore, and a walkable run of seafood shacks, ice cream, and local shops, all with the easy beach-and-restaurant access guests keep mentioning. Ferry over, cruise around by cart, or claim a lounger by the pool; however you play it, it makes the whole trip feel effortless.
