Fun Family Getaway

The Yellowfin was a good choice for my family of eight. There is no way to walk to the beach from the property, but It was only a 3 to 4 minute drive to the beach. The house is starting to show its age in some areas, but it was clean and smelled nice inside. The beds, linens, and furniture were clean and comfortable, the AC was cold, and everything functioned properly. Michael was a particularly gracious host, and answered all of my questions very promptly. If we return to Port A, we will consider staying at the Yellowfin again.

There was a lot of space and bedrooms for everyone. We loved the balconies and out door space. House was well stocked with what we needed. There is not any stores or beach woth i walking distance.

Clean, quiet and perfect for family

Our family really enjoyed our stay at this rental. The house was very clean, had multiple decks with views of dunes and the ocean, nice yard for our small dog and had great air conditioning. The kitchen had everything we needed and it was also nice that we could store our beach chairs in the garage. The property had covered parking for our car and a hose to clean the sand off of our beach toys. The rental was conveniently located to both Corpus Christi and Port Aransas when we needed groceries or going out to eat. The public beach access "2" was only a couple minutes drive away and we had family at the Mayan Princess which was only a 5-10 minute walk. Thank you!

it was good

liked the layout, laundry, kitchen, garage all was good. could have used more towels. my wife was biten by a 5 inch centipede that was pretty aggressive - it was in a drawer in the bedroom on the first floor on the window side of the bed. the good news is that we did not see any more insects or bugs the rest of our stay. her had hurt for 2 days and swelled up some but then after 2 days she was fine. we were disappointed that we could not see the ocean and had no easy access to the beach, that should be made more clear in the advertisement. we had a very nice stay there was a large group of young adults (8-10) who occupied the hot tub all the time so we never got to use it.. there was alot of construction going on real close to our home with new homes being built but that was not a problem really.

Love the house!

What a beautiful house, love ALL the bedrooms - All Big Beds with lots of sleeping arrangements! it’s hard to find a big house with all great bedrooms. Most houses normally have 1 or 2 good bedrooms and the others are small with small choices, not this house. I high recommend this house, can’t wait to book our next stay here. Plenty of space indoors and outdoors.

The yellowfin fit our family perfectly comfortable. House was spacious, clean, and everything we needed. We will definitely rent again. Property manager answered fast and was very helpful and friendly. The only thing that I would say is mosquito. If your wanting to be out on the patios or outside. Just make sure you have spray or candles. The home did have some candles and they helped. 😁 Thanks for the stay and would definitely recommend to others.
