Peace of the Sea

Property was nice and clean. Located is just a short drive from the center of town. We were six in our party and fit comfortably. Condo sits behind the pool which made for a great view from the large patio. A coded walkway lead us directly to the beach. Home was equipped with everything needed. The kitchen had plenty of paper products, utensils, dishwater and cookware (just bring your food and condiments). Overall, we were very satisfied with our rental and looking to come back soon.

Wonderful time on the beach!

My family and I had a great time. My teenagers had a fantastic time, right on the water and pool was awesome too. Very clean and comfortable. The only complaint that I had was that you definitely will need to bring ALL that you need. Don't forget toilet paper, paper towels, something to clean with, etc. Bring it all.

Our family had such a great time staying in the condo! The place was super clean and the first floor location with pool view was perfect for us. I highly recommend it!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay for spring break. Perfect location and easy access to beach. The pool was refreshing. We liked the new upgrades and modernizations from the last time we stayed in this unit. Very Relaxing. This our goto place to stay in Port A.

The listing and information given on this location was a 2.5 bedroom with the half bedroom/utility room having bunk beds. It did not! The information given on the Wifi password (which the signal strength was spotty and needed it for work) was not correct. The location on the beach was awesome along with the pool being a good size. This condo is great for only two couples, no more than 4 people. We have had good luck with the management property helping out, but even after bringing the sleeping accommodations in the large utility room, it still shows it on their website. Beware!
Taken from their web page!!!
This 2 bedroom, 2 bath condo has a great additional sleeping area in the extra SPACIOUS UTILITY ROOM.

Living room has FLAT SCREEN SMART TV (Netflix) for movies! The master bedroom has a KING-size bed and second room has a queen bed. Additional sleeping accommodations are in a utility room with a bunk bed that is a twin over a full bed. (this is not true!)

The location was great. The pool was clean and very close to the room. The beach was a short walk.
Only complaint was the wi-fi did not work. I called the management service several days in a row, they never called me back.
Caught a maintence man the fourth day and he came and looked at it. The problem was a cable in the condo. He got a different cable and it was fixed.
Everything else was very nice.

Convenient check in & out, well kept, clean, & nicely furnished. Management helped us right away with a minor problem.
Very convenient beach front access, our stay was very quiet, we had quiet neighbors, with a nice pool, & beautiful view of the horizon from the first floor.
Spacious & comfortable.

This was a lovely, very clean condo with spacious rooms for a family of 6! A short walk to the beach and just minutes from shops and restaurants in Port Aransas! I especially liked that it was a small facility with only 40 condos. Kept commotion to a minimum! I would highly recommend this wonderful getaway condo! Plus, Starkey Properties is always very courteous and helpful!

We definitely loved being so close to the beach. A boardwalk trip to the beach; instead of loading up the car with kiddos, toys, wet kids, and sand is much preferred. I would recommend a small fold-up wagon to transport items, if need be. Our family enjoyed this stay better than previous years as the beach area seemed cleaner and more secluded for morning walks. The location of the property was outside of the regular Port Aransas rentals we have stayed in. If you don't mind a short drive to town, it is definitely worth it. There is a nice little wash facility to wash your items of sand upon your return. The first floor condo was great in order to sit on the porch and keep a close eye on those older kids swimming. Although, we did comment that it would have been nice to have a view of the ocean instead of sand dunes. It will dependent upon what is most important to you. Trash chutes are above on the 2nd and 3rd floor -- not too inconvenient. The master bedroom was spacious enough to set-up a pack 'n play. There is a pull-out couch; however it was not necessary as the beds were spacious. My only personal compliant was not having a microwavable safe bowl to heat up food in; hence the 4 in amenities. Otherwise, it would have perfect 5's across the board.

We had a wonderful stay at Grand Carribean.Friends & family joined us on our trip.We had our Wedding on the Beach behind Condo. Gorgeous!!!

I've stayed at Grand Caribbean the last 2 summers- last year for our family vacation of 6 and this year for a ladies trip of 6. We all enjoyed our condos both years. Both were clean and nicely furnished as well maintained. The pool was cloudy this year and had a bit of debris in it but overall everything else was exceptionally clean. I would definitely stay here again. Great view of the beach/ocean.

Very comfortable. Only thing that wasn't great was the weather which you had no control over. Didn't get to spend time on the beach.

Loved this place and will definitely book it again!

Manager's Response

We loved this place! The condo was clean and inviting and decorated with cute beach themed items throughout. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the beds were very comfortable. The kids loved the bunk beds! We were so close to the ocean we could just take a short walk from the condo, and the pool was a nice break from the sand and salt. We can't wait to come back! One minor thing was that I wasn't crazy about the sheer curtains in the main area - I didn't like that it was so easy to look in at night.

Relaxing week, relaxing place! Plenty of room.

Manager's Response

It was clean an spacious loved it

Very clean and quiet place, close to the ocean. Way quieter than a hotel, and with the extra rooms a lot more private. The kitchen is very nice and having an extra restroom is great

On the whole, our stay was great. We love the location and the size and general condition of the property. However, there was one thing that would make us pause before ever renting 1005 again. That was the BUGS in the kitchen! Dozens of crawly things! I didn't call to complain because we were only there for one week and really didn't cook at all. But they were awful! I hope you would fumigate the place before renting 1005 again!
