Great place to stay
Andrea T. from Austin, TX recommends this property.
Stayed for 3 days in April, 2013
We were very happy with at this rental. Perfect view of the ocean, comfortable beds and furniture. Nice interior design, aesthetics and color details. The private balcony was perfect. The only problem we ran into was internet and cell phone reception. We will be returning! thank you!

Dirty room
Reviewed by: Laura G. does not recommend this property.
Stayed for 4 days in March, 2013
We got to the condo at 5:00pm and it was completely trashed from the previous group. Management did not give me a discount of any kind. The dishes were dirty and in the dish washer. The only good thing was the location bc there was beach access near the condo.

Pleasant Stay
Larry and Bonnie A. from Peoria Heights, IL recommends this property.
Stayed for 30 days in February, 2013
The property was nice. Pool was not heated, very big disappointment. Could not swim even though the weather was nice enough. Condo was fine, no complaints there. Fridge door was rusty, but was a new fridge. Just looks bad when you first walk in the door. All in all it was a nice stay!

Great stay until we left...
Nichole T. from SA, TX does not recommend this property.
Stayed for 2 days in January, 2013
The space was a little smaller then the pictures show, but for only 2 people the space wsa big enough. We were just expecting some seperate living spaces. The appliances were a little rusty, but usable. The over head light in the kitchen and one of the overhead sinks did not work either, so we had to make due with the light that we had. When we called for a late check out, like we were told that we could do at check in without a fee, we were given a hard time by another rep in the office. After arguing for a bit with me on the phone I was told taht they would do it, that they would probably get in trouble but they would do it. It was the way that the office representative said it and the words that were used. The communication can definetely be better in the office in order to not affect the guests. Our stay was very nice, but with the way that it ended, we would definetely consider staying some place else.

Great little condo with a straight on view of the beach. Close enough to hear the gentle crashing of waves at night, with a nice boardwalk for the short walk across the dunes to the beach. A+ exceptional service from the management and staff. Highly recommended!

We stayed for 2 nights at a discounted rate (off season). I was pleasantly surprised by the view from the balcony and the cleanliness of the unit. The beds were a little small (I think they are full size) but other than that we had a great stay.

This cute condo was the perfect size for our girls trip to the beach. It was surprisingly close to everything, beach, pool, eateries. The best part about it was the booking. Extremely easy to book, pick up keys and drop them off when your done. No hassle, no waiting in line and you can see when its booked without calling. Very pleasant stay, I will DEFINITELY stay here again!

who do you get help from? not the people at the office on site?
A guest from Austin, TX recommends this property.
Stayed for 5 days in June, 2012
The condo was nice and well equipt. I did not read all of the emails to find out that the people at the office on site does not manage all of the units contained within the complex. My mistake, apparently some of the condo owners don't use the staff in the front office of the complex. If you are one of the unfortunate souls that do not catch this detail you will be treated in a very rude fashion. After you take enough abuse and disrespect they will tell you where you need to go to get keys for the unit that you rented. When you finally contact the right people they are very helpful and courteous. The people on site will treat you like trash if you rent a unit they do not manage. I would stay there again if it were very clear and suscenct as to whom I need to contact to obtain the keys and whom I should pay. I clearly understand why some owners do not use the onsite management facility/staff.

A guest from Alpena, MI recommends this property.
Stayed for 30 days in February, 2012
Our time on Port Aransas was enjoyable. Our stay at Sounds of the Ocean 147 was pleasant. The location and view were great! Although it didn't harm our visit, the shades of the doorwall and window need to be repaired or replaced as well as the heat/AC unit. As we don't have pets, the lingering pet hair from the previous occupant(s) was a nuisance. We will be returning!

Great Location
A guest from Elk Mound, WI recommends this property.
Stayed for 30 days in January, 2012
The location of this efficiency is superb. We didn't see any location on Port Aransas that we would have preferred. The Island Retreat staff does an excellent job of maintaining the grounds. The efficiency itself is attractive but had several things that did not work particularly well, i.e. blinds on window and door did not work at all, the dish washer did not work effectively, screens to the balcony were torn so bugs could get inside. We tried the a/c once and it didn't appear to be working. Fortunately we didn't really need it so our a/c experience may not be a fair evaluation. Overall we greatly enjoyed our stay at the efficiency and would recommend it to others.

Stayed for 3 days in November, 2011
The location was great. the patio and mini blinds were broken, the phone did not work and the air conditioner unit did NOT work and mostly it was very very lound. thank goodness it was not summer. i think what ticked me was the rules we as renters have to follow are the same rules the mgmnt company should follow, if we have to keep everything perfect, everything should be perfect when we check in. the gentleman that was working in the office on the property was rude 9am 11/25/11.

Dog Friendly Beachfront Condo was a Hit!
Reviewed by: Gail M. recommends this property.
Stayed for 3 days in October, 2011
Deep in the heart of Island Retreat is where you will find this efficiency condo. It is perfectly sandwiched between the pool and the beach. Although small in square footage, this property offered comfy beds, well appointed kitchen, spacious balcony and flat screen TV. Yes, the A/C unit labored to cool the condo and really never got chilly. However, an easy fix would be to replace the plastic window blinds with blackout drapes offering insulation from the heat of the the sun and adding a welcome escape from the blistering bright sunrise. If you plan to cook, bring your spices, coffee filters and foil. We will absolutley stay here again.

Not a negative, just a heads up. Bring coffee filters, salt, pepper, ANY condiments you'll need. Great property, welll kept grounds, pool is nice. You can't hear the surf - the A/c noise on the deck/patio drowns out any "nature noises". You can see the gulf, but not really the beach per se. The dunes block the waves but overall it is a good view and good location. My dog and I had a cery NICE stay.

Reviewed by: Janine L. recommends this property.
Stayed for 3 days in August, 2011
We really enjoyed our stay in #147. The grounds are beautifully maintained, and I enjoyed walking my dogs in the lush grass. We were lucky to be there during a full moon, so the ocean view from the balcony was stunning both night and day. The beds are comfortable and I appreciated having a ceiling fan above the beds since I am used to sleeping under a fan at home. The only complaint I have about this room is the noise from the AC unit. During the day it wasn't a problem, but at night when we were trying to get to sleep, it was a real nuisance. I wished that I had brought my m3 player to provide some soothing music through ear plugs to fall asleep to.

Property in a great location, close to the beach Boardwalk, swimming pool, etc. The wifi was a challenge in that it required a login almost hourly, quite annoying. There was a large disconnect between the leasing agent and the property manager as the leasing company told us 2x that we did not need parking and pool passes but the property manager told us that we did. Overall, we loved our stay and the property was convenient, well taken care of, and in a great location. The wifi and the disconnect between the managers was a minor inconvenience.

#147 is very clean, nice, but way over-priced compared to similar efficiencies and one bedroom units managed by Island Retreat.

This condo was awesome. I really was happy with my stay in 147IR. It had all ammenties.The kitchen had everything. You have a little housekeeping to do before you leave but it is well worth it.Staff didn't tell me which condo I was staying at so I had to do some hunting for what I saw on the internet.Lesson learned..make sure you ask what is the exact name of the condo before arriving, especially after dark.Overall this is a great place to stay and I will seek it again when I come back to Port A.
