Island Retreat in Port Aransas

Welcome to Island Retreat! Slip out of your shoes and your cares...welcome to the Island...Port "A" as the locals say it. Find your coastal home away from home in this one level, 2 bed, 2 bath townhouse with a one car garage. Furnished in refreshing tropical elegance, this home will welcome you with cool tile floors, rattan and wicker furnishings, whimsical art and comfortable beds. This lovely, newer home has everything you need for a fabulous vacation. There are 2 t.v.s, a fully equipped kitchen and even a washer/dryer. The furnishings are classy and comfortable. The beds are heavenly with luxurious bedding and beautiful atmosphere. There is a private small pool in the common area for you to use when you're not at the beach. Located close to the shopping, fishing, dining and the beach, this area is set back from the main drag for a bit of quiet. The waters of the Gulf Coast are a leisurely 7 minute stroll away. Tired of the sand in your toes? Visit the Birding Center (complete with the resident 'gator), fish off the pier, watch the tankers and ships come in off the jetty, charter a boat, ride a bike, golf....whatever appeals to your sense of adventure and relaxation. Pick from a wide selection of restaurants...from the quirky (The Crazy Cajun) to the quaint (Shell's) to haute cuisine (The Cafe Phoenix). Wanting some Golf on the Gulf? Come play the newly finished Newport Dunes Golf Course; an Arnold Palmer Signature Course! Come stay and play and we'll show you a wonderful get-a-way you'll want to come back to every year!
