The location of the property was excellent. We were just a short walk from the beach and the boardwalk was great! Although you can’t see the ocean from the balcony because it is a first floor unit, we still enjoyed the view of the sand dunes. We saw that past guests had noted not liking that you could only access the balcony from the main bedroom. We didn’t think this would be a big deal to us, however we agree. It was very annoying for all the guests to have to go through the main bedroom. It left very little privacy for the guests staying in that room. We also did not realize you cannot access the pool from the balcony. This wasn’t a huge deal however because the entrance to the pool was not far. Another thing to note is the glass door is still cracked and the door is very difficult to close. The kitchen was well equipped which was great because we did a lot of cooking. The laundry room was also fantastic! The beds were very comfortable. Our two biggest complaints were the minimal number of towels and the missing blind panels in the main bedroom and many in the living room that created a big lack of privacy on a first floor unit that is next to the pool and boardwalk. Again, we saw that other guests had mentioned the blinds (from years ago) but figured they had been fixed by now…nope. The blinds need to be replaced asap. Although we had a few things we think need to be addressed, we overall enjoyed the condo and the location and would stay here again.

Perfect Labor Day Weekend

Loved the property and the access to the beach. The condo was so clean and well stocked. The primary sweet was HUGE! Not all of our proposed guests were able to come, but we used one other bedroom and heard no complaints. The only downside was that check out was at 11 on Monday and by 10:30 our door code no longer worked. Luckily my husband was still inside so we could finish packing the car. Would 100% stay here again.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our 3rd time staying at this condo and we’re already looking at dates for next summer to come again. Due to the hurricane they allowed us to change our dates for any day of our choosing as long as the condo wasn’t already booked for no extra charge and we can’t even say how much that was appreciated, as coming to Port A has been tradition for over 20 years!! It’s always very well kept and the pool and boardwalk are the best thing about it as it is so convenient to walk right to the beach every day!The rental always has the basic amenities and we always feel right at home here. Very family friendly

Very nice but had issues

This property is in a great location. Beautiful pool that’s shaded in the afternoons and beach just a short way down the boardwalk. Unit was super clean and large with most everything we needed. Kids and adults alike had a fun time. But when we checked in Friday there was a roofing crew working outside our patio and they had blocked some of the pool area for safety which was understandable. Over the weekend we fished at least 4 screws out of the pool when my grandson stepped on them puncturing both his big toes. Painful and not acceptable. We did not know how to contact the onsite representative and the gate code for the pool and boardwalk was not posted in our unit. We had to get it from other guests. The patio doors were locked with no instructions and when I called the Port A Escapes #, the sent a very nice maintenance man who showed us the counterintuitive method. Also suggest more bath towels be provided. There were 2 per bathroom for a 3 night stay.

Good Space, Well Stocked, but work needed

Rating Details: The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: There’s lots of room, beds are comfy. Kitchen is well-appointed and nice and has a great pantry. Good location as far as being close to the beach - that was our priority.Our problem was mostly with the doors. There’s STILL a crack in the master patio door - I assumed it would have been fixed by now. The main patio door is VERY hard to close without slamming. I have five kids ranging 14-21, and we all had trouble. My husband had to close the door each time bc you need strength and gentleness. It’s ridiculous. Also, there are notes ab not tearing up the blinds but they are cheap and flimsy and one panel was missing in master. I was dumb and didn’t realize this was a first-floor rental. The lights from the pool shone right into the master at night and they’re kind of bright. Hard to block them out with the ****** blinds. Also the master bath has been recently updated but water pressure isn’t great and it won’t spray all the way to the back of the shower. Overall the unit has good bones but needs some work.

Great first floor accommodations (which we needed for a grandparent). Beautiful pool. Calm quiet atmosphere. Beach walk was about 200 yards. Port A shops and restaurants were so cute. Easy 15 minute drive to dinner each night. Tons of kitchen essentials and beach chairs and toys. Three bedrooms and three bathrooms. Got quick responses from maintenance and Port A booking service through the phone

Family Beach Trip

We love staying at the Grand Caribbean when we visit Port A, and we really enjoyed staying in this condo. The condo was extremely clean and was well equipped. It had the perfect layout and configurations to accommodate our family comfortability. The property was very well kept, the pool was clean as well as the boardwalk. Great place to stay!!! The only downside was the balcony door was extremely hard to open and lock, but that didn't bother us too much. I can't wait for another trip, and I will be booking this condo in the future.

Remodeling needs to be finished.

The unit is nice and clean. The location is in a really good area in Port A. However the unit could use some work. There were some pretty large cracks in the glass doors on the pool side of the unit. There are also old school vertical blinds on the back side of the unit that were missing panels. Normally I don’t mention sheets, but these need to be upgraded throughout. The owners have made some nice upgrades (new flooring), but there is still a lot of work that needs to be done for the prices being charged for this unit.

Too many calls for repair

Place great. The owner had lovely things ... I.e. pot,, pans, dishes, etc... However, they had way too many personal items - bicycle, high chair, tent, wagon..... The refrigerator wasn’t working when we arrived, and they were never able to fix the ice maker. The disposal was hit or miss. We lost power in 1 room for a while and the cable was less than reliable. I know this list sounds like we were unhappy, but, we really did enjoy our stay, just laying out our true experience.

Fantastic Stay

Our family of 5 had a very enjoyable stay. The location was perfect with very short walk over the dunes to the beach. We enjoyed the pool with tables and shade when we had too much sun. Very friendly neighbors and staff. Very, very quiet. We never heard others while in the unit. . The property was spotless. Kitchen was well stocked with all the essential utensils. We were provided with more than enough paper towels, dish soap, and toilet paper for our 4 night stay. Coffee maker is a traditional 12 cup. Beds are all very comfy. The fold out couch is a standard, thin mattress fold out, so put the littles on that one. The unit has been updated and is very nice. Watch the glass doors - it appeared that someone allowed them to slam and the glass was broken. We are grateful for our stay and would absolutely stay again.
