Isle Be Chillin'

Fantastic stay. It was a very easy walk to the beach and the pool, so a golf cart wasn't even needed. The house was clean, spacious and well equipped with games, puzzles and books to keep the whole family entertained. Also, the decks were lovely and peaceful for sitting outside and enjoying the view.

Very easy check in and check out. Good communication through text. Very close to the beach. Elevator was a must for us and worked great once we got everyone to remember to close both doors when they got off. I had to send my granddaughter to find it and bring it up to me a couple of times. There were some tar stains on the rugs. We were told about the tar on the beach and to be careful not to bring any in the house and we were very careful. Would definitely rent again if we go back to Port Aransas.

We had a nice time! This house is perfect for us with an elderly family member who can't go up and down stairs.

The house and amenities were very accommodating.
The location could not have been better for accessing the beach. We were a family of ten and had more than adequate space to accommodate everyone very comfortably. Starkey Managment was always available to assist in any questions that we had before and during arrival and departure.

We’ve rented beach houses in Port Aransas for over 25 years. Isle be Chillin’ is one of the best for our annual family gathering in Port A.

We had a lovely stay at this well appointed home for a large family gathering. We enjoyed the views of the ocean from the 3rd floor deck, easy access to the boardwalk for a short walk to the beach, and the community pools. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. The house was clean and everything was in great condition. My only complaint is I wish the house were equipped with a combination lock - only having 1 physical key was difficulty amongst our large group.

The property allowed for both privacy and group entertainment. All aspects of the trip were provided for in the property. There was enough room for the whole group to gather. i.e meals , games ect. There were also areas to relax individually.

The house had a cigarette smell. One of the second floor bedrooms did not have cable tv. Lastly the third floor balcony’s’ outdoor outlets were not working. The first floor bedroom was the most accessible for a wheelchair user. Although the shower seat could be a little wider from back to front. The elevator was great!

The property was just as described, very clean and only a few mins from the beach. We enjoyed our time very much! It was very quiet!

We had a blast! The house is so accommodating and the view is beautiful! The elevator made it so easy to maneuver luggage up and down. Thanks for the wonderful time. Can’t wait to go again.

We were very pleased with this house, and plan to rent it again. The house is clean, the rooms spacious with attached baths. And the beds and pillows are very comfortable. Most of the time when you stay somewhere they supply you with wafer thin pillows and a mattress that is passable. Not here. I slept as well here as if I were in my own bed. The kitchen is large enough to cook in easily with two or three people working at the same time. Nice appliances that all worked well. Though we did eat out often, when we cooked I had no trouble at all. One thing I like about having a home over even a suite in a hotel is the room you have to gather easily in one area. The dining area was large enough to accommodate eight to ten easily. Then there was a very nice living room with couches and chairs. No one felt crowded or had to sit on the edge of a bed or table. And if you want to watch TV, each bedroom and the living room all had televisions. From the third floor balcony you can see the ocean. I sat out there with my coffee watching the sun come up. And it was just as comfortable in the afternoon and evenings, as the west sun is blocked by the house. Finally, one thing I want to mention that could be very important. If you travel with older family members, or have family that stairs are challenging, this home has an elevator. No walking up two flights of stairs to carry suitcases or groceries. It's not always needed, but sure was a perk that we took advantage of. Oh, if you want to wash your clothes, there is a washer and dryer in the house too. For a Port A trip with family and friends this is where we will go from now on. The beach is only a quarter mile or so from the house and an easy walk. So if you get too hot or tired from being on the beach, walk back to the house and chill. The house is named appropriately and I look forward to "Chillin'" there again.

Such a nice place! The elevator was a huge help with delivering groceries to the kitchen on the top floor and also with a couple of our family members who could not navigate the stairs. The bedrooms each had their own bathrooms and the beds were comfy! The beach is easy to access, very close to the boardwalk, and it's great that the boardwalk will accommodate golf carts. Thanks for such a nice stay!

Our family rented Isle Be Chillin' for 4 days. We had a great experience. The bedrooms are clean and beds were comfortable. The baths were all unique and very clean, and had a few towels for our use. We really enjoyed having the laundry room near the front door, as we could come in from the beach and throw everything in the washer. There is also an outdoor showering area to rinse off and clean beach toys. The elevator was extremely useful for our aging mother. The kitchen was very well stocked for cooking. We spent many hours outside on the upper veranda enjoying the ocean breeze and feeding the seagulls. There is also a separate fridge/freezer in the stock room for chilling cokes and drinks.
We did rent a golf cart for easier beach access over the walkway from the condo, but it isn't necessary as you can get beach access by truck by going back into town and driving up. During the week, we could get beach access right next to our walkway bridge, but on the weekend we had to drive about half a mile to find a good spot so keep that in mind if you don't want to take your vehicle on the beach! The condo is about a block from the walkway bridge, so easy to walk over as well as long as you have no disabilities.
The house has lots of fun games to play, but we were enjoying our visits too much to use them.
We are already looking to rent again next year, our family will be back to this property!
