1/1 Cottage in the Dunes! PRIVATE POOL! Dog Friendly! Walk to Beach!

Once upon a time on a natural sand dune in Port Aransas sprung up the most unusual property in this Beach Community, The Dome and Cottage in the Dunes. This quaint, quiet and supremely comfortable beachy cottage shares the pristine pool with the property owner at the Dome house. The owner doesn't use the pool when there are guests at the Cottage so it's yours alone. The Cottage in the Dunes has its own deck overlooking the pool and is elevated from the street by about 20 steps. The landscaping which is both tropical and inviting and will welcome you to this getaway for your weekend, honeymoon, or small family vacation. Be sure and inquire if your group needs to add additional sleeping at our nearby properties.

VRBO does not currently collect city hotel tax for us. We will ask for that and any pet fees prior to check in. We will then make sure you have directions and easy check in procedure.

Great cottage
The weather did not work out in our favor; however, the accommodations were great!The cottage is cute, plenty of room for a family of 4. The pool was perfect. There are a lot of stairs on the property, so if you have difficulty with mobility, this is not the place for you. The property manager is very communicative and welcoming. Highly recommend this property.

Great Stay for Baby Moon
This property was perfect for our baby moon. An easy walk to the beach, but still on a relatively quiet street. The private pool was a huge plus. We loved that our dogs were able to join! We’re definitely going to try to stay here again.

Weekend getaway
The house is clean, cosy & well provisioned with kitchen appliances & linen/bathroom supplies. The balcony is closed in so dogs can be let out but there is no grassy area on the property so frequent walks are needed. The beach is a 10 minute walk away & leashed dogs are allowed there. The owner has another property very nearby with a lovely fenced in grassy front yard & graciously allowed us full access which was appreciated. Do note that car parking is on the street & there are about 2 flights of steps from the street up to the property. Communication with the owner at all times was very simple & she was very responsive. All up, it was a very peaceful & relaxing stay & I would recommend this property.

We enjoyed our stay and the place was perfect for family of 3. The only compliant is the frig really doesn’t cool well and I was little nervous about the milk/food. Everything else was great!

Wonderful little cottage!
We absolutely loved staying in this cottage! It was the perfect place for myself, my husband, our daughter, and dog! The cottage had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and is easily accessible to the beach and everything in town. It was great taking evening walks to the beach. The pool was an added bonus! It was nice coming back and taking a dip in the pool during the midday heat when we needed a break from the beach. We are looking forward to staying here again in the future!

Wonderful Experience
This was our first time to stay in Port A but it definitely won't be our last. This was the most relaxing vacation I've ever been on. Our hosts made us feel welcome and did everything to make sure we were comfortable. The cottage was cozy and well-equipped (and I want to add that the A/C was excellent). We appreciated having access to a private pool, and there was only a short walk to the nearby beach.

Everything about the cottage was great! The pool was a great escape from the beach on the hot summer days. It was quiet and restful from the busy city life. The pups were welcomed and no fuss was made about them and I have big pups!! All locations for shopping and eating are a few minutes away! Great place to call home for a few days!
