Hope to stay again!
Great house! The open kitchen and dining area were perfect for gathering, and there was plenty of space for our large family to sleep comfortably. Having a pool was a huge bonus—we could enjoy the beach until the adults were ready for some shade, then let the little ones swim while we relaxed nearby. I do wish we had opted to heat the pool, since it got a little chilly later in the day when the sun wasn’t out. We were also glad we didn’t rent a golf cart—the walk to the beach was quick and easy, and the boardwalk took us through a beautiful sea of sunflowers. We had a wonderful time and would absolutely stay again. Thanks, Marlin Madness!

Great Girls Trip!
What a beautiful house! Everything was clean and spotless! You could see the water from the upstairs deck. It took only a few minutes to walk to the beach. Loved the dining table that fit all 9 of us! Even though the other houses were very close, everyone was very respectful. It was also very close to places we ventured out to like Virginias on the Bay, Port A Beer Hut, and The Candy Shop.

Wonderful!!
We so enjoyed out stay!! Three sisters and 2 nieces from 3 different states descended upon this lovely home! Nicely decorated, so close to the beach! Very clean, maybe except for a little sand on the floors. We enjoyed the private pool also. Had it heated in April but it got too warm with the beautiful weather so we called and had it turned off. Very receptive and nice! We were given the wrong packet of instruction (for another location) but we were able to follow the correct listing on the fridge.
It was an awesome stay and we so enjoyed ourselves. Thank you!!

A wonderful celebration of my wife's birthday at a great location
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Port Aransas Escapes to celebrate my wife's birthday with her family. Everything was as we were told they would be and as we expected. Beautiful, clean and well taken care of and only a short walk to the beach. We had a great experience with the Marling Madness home and the manager and supporting staff were great and quickly handled any issue we had. We had an issue with the pool heating, but we were quickly refunded for the expense with no problem. As we told the manager when we checked out, we would be happy to recommend the properties to anyone interested in a great vacation location!

Great Stay
We really enjoyed our 5 night stay here. The house has everything you need. They include a few laundry pods, dishwasher pods, 2 paper towel rolls, and some trash bags, which was all really great. The layout of the house is nice. The pictures didn’t really explain it well...but it has a nice layout. The bottom floor has 3 rooms and two bathrooms. The 2nd floor has the living area and the master bedroom with a very large bathroom, and a half bath. The 3rd floor has the bunk room with a bathroom. The elevator was very nice to have for coolers and luggage! Oh, it also has a washer and dryer on the bottom, and second floor. Beds were comfy enough.
A few cons: if you get a golf cart, you have to drive a 3ish minute drive (on a main road)...you can’t take the walk over bridge with the cart. Also, the mosquitos in the pool area were out of control. I know this is somewhat out of their control, but we couldn’t even use the pool (in August). We attempted it and came out with so many bites, even with bug spray. I guess because it’s completely shaded.

Overall, it was a great place to stay.

A wonderful house for a beach vacation!
My family of 12 had such a great experience with Marlin Madness. The large kitchen, living room, and dining space was our favorite. There was so much room for each of us to be together. I will be recommending Marlin Madness to others and we cannot wait to stay again!

Perfect Peaceful Getaway
Our family loved this lovely getaway! Marlin Madness BB 909 met all our expectations. We enjoyed the set up of the house and the pool/hot tub was a nice relaxing way to end a fun filled day at the beach. This will be a place we will consider when returning to Port A.

The house was great and perfect for our family. There were a few things that could be improved:
- kitchen was not well stocked with essentials - no mixing bowls , cookie sheets, baking pans, platers
- down stairs washer did not work
- no extra blankets
