Our families had such a great visit to Port Aransas and the accommodations had a lot to do with it! Everyone had plenty of space to spread out and the outside pool/patio was the perfect gathering space.

We had 23 people that wanted to visit Corpus Christie for a family reunion. The Whale of a Time location was perfect. Everyone had their own bedroom. There were two kitchens which made it nice for eating. There was an outdoor eating area. There was a pool for cooling off. There were plenty of bathrooms for everyone. Nobody felt crowded. Check-in was super easy. The only negative thing was that beach access wasn't easy, but I think that is problematic for all of Port Aransas, not just this place. There are very few properties that have beach access. We wish we had booked longer.

This rental was perfect for my birthday celebration. Each couple had plenty of privacy and the beds were comfortable. Plenty of parking, two fridges & kitchens and everything was clean. The ice machine outside was full & ready to use- nice addition. There was an air fryer (awesome!), toasters, and Keurig machine. Do note that there are appliances, but no cooking supplies (seasonings, oil, coffee pods, etc.). Unfortunately, we paid for the pool to be heated and it didn't work. However, as soon as I called management, they sent someone out to see what they could do. They did reimburse us for this since it wasn't able to be resolved. We would definitely stay here again!

Management team was extremely helpful and responsive both in booking our stay and during the time we were there. The space was great for our family of 17. Everyone agreed the layout was perfect for multiple families and the breezeway area upstairs was ideal for the kids to hang out during the day so that the parents could visit. Having the pool was a huge bonus. Everyone in the family wants to return.

We stayed here for 7 nights for our Family Reunion. The property was lovely. We loved the pool, it kept everyone busy when we had down time between activities. There was plenty of parking four our 6 families. We had children ranging from 2 to 17, there was plenty to do nearby for the older kids and tons to do for the younger kids.

We have a fairly large family and have a hard time finding places we can all stay together whale of a time was perfect for us! The pool was an added bonus. The only negative was it rained on us the day we were leaving which made loading difficult. We all felt this was the cleanest rental we’ve ever stayed in. Also between the 2 kitchens we had everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again!

We enjoy having the lower level bedrooms for the older family members and the pool in close proximity on property to watch the younger family members. I would have to say the beach situation during COVID was a joke and the politics being played during summer 2020 was a joke and an embarrassment to the people of Texas. Vote those leaders out of office!!

The place is beautiful. Well kept and excellent location. Everything was perfect, the only hitch was one garage door would not open and was not instructed on the pool heater. That made it to cold to swim.

Manager's Response

First we would like to Thank You for staying with us! We apologize if it was not made clear at the time of check-in that Guest have access to only one garage. The Pool can be Heated or Cooled; next time you stay please call the SPM office and they will take care of it for you. We look forward to welcoming you back!

This was the perfect setting for our annual Couples’ Retreat. The house was beautiful, spotless and spacious. There was plenty enough space for each couple. The weather was beautiful so we spent plenty of time in the courtyard. We ate our meals outdoors and even sat around the fire pit and made s’mores. This is definitely a place that I would visit again!

We are so glad you were able to enjoy the Fire Pit and Loungers. Let us know when you're ready to come back!

Managment company went silent once my rental was paid in full. Over 2 weeks I left 5 lessages during business hours and finally reached them on call #6; very frustrating. By that time it was too late to try to accomplish our needs. One thing we needed to clarify is if the pictured BBQ grill existed. It did not but 2 older / smaller charcoal puts were. On the first night we used the provided fire pit (not cleaned) for an appropriate-sized fire. However, a lady barged into our group saying we were not allowed to have a fire. There was no notification that we could not have a fire (but there were 2 charcoal grills...). We shared the corner condo kitchen with a flurry of roaches and their little ones; nice. Everything functioned well; ice machine; a/c; appliances. Rear patio table needs to be replaced; rusted out and left chards in kid’s hands.

Manager's Response

First we would like to thank you for choosing to stay with us. We apologize that your stay was not without issue. We try to take care of any issues brought to our attention as quickly as possible. Had we been notified of any insects we would have sent out the exterminator right away. We apologize for the unnecessary visit from your neighbor, your fire was not in violation of the Village Walk rules. Unfortunately, we can not control other Owners or Renters and can not intervene if it is not brought to our attention. We hope you return and we are able to meet the high standards we set for ourselves. Again, thank you for staying at Whale of A Time!

Excellent venue. Brought along a chef to feed our customers. Main kitchen was spacious for him and we dined in the larger dinning area across the courtyard. Oven in main kitchen has trouble holding temp but we the chef managed fine and Im confident it will be fixed. Had a minor AC issue upon arrival, called it in and in less than 30mins all resolved. Beds are comfy and restrooms great. All very clean and community as a whole very quite. Parking is limited but we knew that coming in and were prepared. Still able to fit 8 vehicles on this corner unit easily. We were there on weekdays so weekends may not have as many spaces to park. Absolutely pleased and will be back. Great place to host customers for a fishing trip as we did! Thanks team Starkey and the condo owner for a great time!!!

House was prefect for a group of 18. Plenty of space and kids had their one living room to play and watch TV. Pool was a perfect size for our kids ages 1-11. Plenty of shade and the outside TV under the patio was a perfect touch not to mention the outside ice maker!The only thing the house did not have was a large enough BBQ grill. Not much of an issue we just went and bought one. Defiantly would stay again!

Property was fantastic with all the amenities you could ever want. Houses were clean and well appointed. Having a courtyard to gather in and a private pool were the ultimate. Would definitely stay there again and recommend to anyone with a large group 10+.

The house held our 6 family group comfortably with more than enough room and we never felt like we were on top of each other. The house is close to town and to the beach. It has a nice clean plunge pool that kept the kids going even after a day at the beach. Our Church group will look forward to renting again. Penny was very helpful and courteous.

I booked this condo for my wedding and it was absolutely perfect. The separate housing for both families worked out perfectly. Theres plenty of room for everyone to have their own space and it didnt feel crowded at all. The booking process was very easy and stress free. Any time I called, someone always answered and helped with anything I needed. I had a fantastic weekend getaway and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Its super close to the beach too so you can spend the day out there and come back and hang out in your own private pool. It was awesome.

Manager's Response

Congrats on your wedding Hannah! We are so happy you chose Whale of Time to celebrate such a special occasion. This home is absolutely perfect for entertaining large groups and we're glad you all had an amazing time. Let us know when you're ready to come back!

Had a large group (15 guys) down for a Fathers Day fishing weekend. The setup for this property is awesome and we spent most of our time off the water in the courtyard and private pool. The room and bathroom layout is perfect for multiple families and the kitchens are super nice for a meal at the house or take the short drive to downtown Port-A.

Were already planning our next visit! 100% recommend.

Wonderful! We are so happy that you are planning your next trip. Thanks again, The Starkey Team
