Lantana Guest House in Old Town Port A - 3 blocks to the beach, food, and music!

The Lantana Guest House is a charming studio type apartment with a full kitchen, full bathroom, a queen size bed, sofa, and small dining table. The yard is fenced with a large pergola just outside the door and a hot tub on my deck, both of which you are free to use. Pet friendly (in fact, I have a dog that is occasionally in the backyard, and will definitely want to meet you). Plenty of off street parking. Very walkable and the beach and best night life within a few blocks.

The listing price includes the 7% hotel / lodging tax which I will pay to the City of Port Aransas.

Weekend getaway

Mark’s Lantana Cottage was exactly what I wanted. Close to the beach. Close to shopping & restaurants. Quiet, quaint, & very clean!Arriving at Lantana Guest House was so pretty! The home is really pretty & the guest house was a hidden gem. The backyard was perfect for my little dog, who came along with me. Walking into the cottage was very welcoming. Very clean, everything you need, and then some! Lots of extra bath towels, very comfortable bed, stove, and microwave and a full-size refrigerator. Mark had a beautiful patio to sit outside and relax in the evening.Walking distance to some of Port Aransas’s popular restaurants. Beach was located very close, just down the street. Take an evening stroll or get up early in the morning and take in the gorgeous sunrise.I would highly recommend Mark‘s Lantana house if you are looking for something a little bit off the beaten path, quiet with easy access to everything in Port Aransas. You are literally five minutes from anything.Look forward to visiting again!

This was our third time staying at the Lantana Guest House, we keep coming back to Port Aransas because we are obsessed with this guest house! One of our all time favorite short-term rentals we've experienced. We get to bring our dog, there's a hot tub, beautifully maintained gardens, a pergola. So close to the beach. Love just sitting in the back yard, feeling the breeze and the sounds of the palm fronds. Mark is so chill, everything feels like a breeze. 10/10 would recommend!

Visitor BEWARE!! We had such high hopes based on reviews. Either the place has gone downhill or past visitors are completely unobservant. The shower doesn’t drain, there’s mold in the sink, mold in the refrigerator door seals, the cabinets are filthy and, most concerning, there’s black mold on the HVAC vents. The hot tub also had excessive, concerning white foam after using the jets and cameras directly pointed at it that were not disclosed prior to booking, as required by VRBOs privacy requirements. The musty smell should have been our first sign something was amiss but we figured it was the “beach” smell. We were out at the beach all day and night so, unfortunately, we didn’t notice said issues until the next morning. Otherwise, we would have left immediately. We didn’t feel comfortable addressing the host in person at check out because the condition is so poor, we didn’t feel like they would be receptive. Instead, we contacted customer service same day. We requested a refund due to the unhealthy condition of the property but they are still waiting on a response from the host. It’s been almost three weeks now with no response from the host. We had congestion that cleared within hours after leaving the property. We had to thoroughly clean and wash all our belongings to prevent bringing mycotoxins home to our kids. The condition of the property is a true health hazard, especially for those with lung or immune issue. We are still expecting a response from the host via CS.
