Affectionately nicknamed Surf Inn, this unique home offers laid-back living with a private, heated pool in a great area of Port Aransas. Additional amenities include a grill, horseshoes, darts, and a firepit. This vacation retreat is perfect for a pair of families or a group. You’re just a short drive to the beach and Port Aransas Nature Preserve is practically across the street. All the shops, restaurants, and entertainment venues of Port Aransas are also nearby.

*There is an additional charge for the pool to be heated. We will need 24 hour notice for the water to heat.

After a day of outdoor fun, unwind and chat about your day or watch a movie on the 70-inch flatscreen TV. If you are looking for a bit more excitement, play some friendly matches on the new foosball table in the downstairs laundry room.

The remodeled kitchen has stainless steel appliances, a tile backsplash, and beautiful countertops. Brew your morning pick-me-up in either the coffee pot or the Keurig machine. Grill your catch from the sea on the gas grill for dinner.

This home features three distinct outdoor living spaces. There is a covered balcony by the front door, as well as a covered patio below, where you’ll find a picnic table, a dining table for six, and a 32-inch flatscreen TV tucked inside a protective cabinet. Challenge everyone to a dart tournament or play a game of horseshoes. In the backyard, swim in the pool or lean back with a book in one of the Adirondack chairs. On cool nights, pull all the chairs up to the fire pit and roast marshmallows.

You’ll find a washer/dryer, extra refrigerator, and beach chairs in the lower-level supply area. This is a dog-friendly home - an enclosed, dog run has been added for your convenience. There's also an outdoor shower available.

We booked this with another couple and had a great time. The house is a bit older but was clean and had everything we needed and more. The pool was fantastic to have after long days on the beach. The fire pit was a plus and the back yard in general was my favorite spot. Lots of palm trees providing privacy and shade. We watched a football game on the outdoor T.V. And planned to use the grill but we had a load of snacks so it never happened. Super Close to everything but in a cute little neighborhood off the regular beaten track so it feels more private and it’s quiet. Would love to stay here again but it is a rare find so book far in advance!!! The staff at Vacasa was also amazing. I realized the golf cart was blocking the outdoor tv when we arrived and let them know we planned to watch a game in a couple days. They had it moved within the hour and were easy to get ahold of and communicate with. Come to find out, we could have moved it ourselves but I didn’t know that.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Sep 2025
House was in nice area close to all the souvenir shops and a short drive to the beach. The house itself was in rough condition, but we made it work. Some of the issues we had were taken care of fast by the management team. The pool is private, but the shade in the backyard creates a hotbed for mosquitoes. We couldn’t enjoy the pool for more than a few minutes at a time before getting eaten up by mosquitos. I get we’re in Texas, but that yard needs to be treated with repellent before stays. Probably won’t stay here again unless some serious renovation is done. I just don’t think it was worth the price we paid for the weekend.
