This is our second time to stay at Barefoot Bungalow and it is always fun and perfect for our family of 5. Perfect reset after a busy fall full of work, sports, and school. Long walks on the beach with my Senior 🥹 and fun in the sun with the Littles 🎉 then cooking and hanging out at the pool….this house is well stocked with all the extras! Made cookies for Santa, cooked 3 family meals and breakfast every morning. Plenty of towels, even beach towels, chairs and toys. We had the best time!

The house is decorated so cute just as in the pictures! I really loved the whole beach theme. Just about everything you need is in the home. My husband and I took my parents, my little sister and her two kids. We all loved it and had a blast. It's in a great location. Not much traffic on the street since it doesn't lead to the beach but the next street over does and it's only about 2-3 short blocks from the beach. We walked there on several occasions. We were very happy with the home and would definitely rent again for sure. I only wish it was pet friendly so I could have brought my little baby along to enjoy this trip! The house was beautiful and there were no complaints from any of us. My parents and the kids loved the wide variety of streaming networks provided, I did too because it kept them entertained when we weren't out. The owners are very attentive to all the renters needs. Thank you so much for all the beautiful details you've put into making this a great vacation home. We will definitely stay again on the next trip to Port A!

We are very grateful to Mark and Diane for sharing their home with us; it was perfect! The house is beautiful, immaculate, and fully stocked. There was not one thing we wished we had that wasn't there. The beach is a short walk and the pool is steps away from the house. We took advantage of both! The people in the community, whether they were a renter or an owner, were friendly and kind. Awesome house and awesome owners! They are extremely responsive. We would definitely rent from Mark and Diane again, and will gladly share their information with anyone going to the Port Aransas area.

This property is a gem! We arrived shortly after Christmas and stayed to the end of January. Everything we needed for a month long stay is in this home. From the crockpot, coolers, can coozies and both a single serve or full pot coffee maker, we did not find ourselves wishing there was something more in this kitchen, The layout of this property worked well for us. We are 2 adult couples vacationing together. So the bedroom on the first floor and third floor provided privacy like separate units but allowed us the common area of the second floor for meals and social time. It is clean, modern, and tastefully decorated. The beach is a short walk and the Texan convenience store is also nearby. We enjoyed the hot tub on a regular basis. Lindsey, our host is Amazing. Super responsive by email, text or phone. She provides a detailed website with all the info you need to have an enjoyable stay. We highly recommend!
