Jun 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This is such a great place for your visit to PA! The host had excellent communication even ahead of the trip, everything was clean, and it was so convenient to have a full kitchen. You also cannot beat having the boardwalk literal steps from the patio, and the sunrise view is unbeatable. We also loved the convenience of having all the restaurants, parks, etc a quick drive away. Would recommend and stay again :) ##### Leslie W. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Troy M.

Next time we come back to Port A we plan to stay here again. ##### Talitha T. Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Brenda H. Apr 28, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Disgusting and False Description This place was not cleaned before we entered the property. My feet were black, from the dirty floors, after we got everything unpacked. The kitchen was not cleaned. All of the dishes in the cabinets, including utensils, had caked food and a slimy film on them. All had to be washed before using. The beds had footprints and food on the sheets and foot boards. The back door had to be maneuvered to open and would not latch to lock. The light switches were not in the same room in which the were used for. And, the AC unit was falling out of the wall. Now, the bathroom...there was mold in the sink and something splattered on the wall behind the faucet. All fixtures were rusted. The description stated the place was recently updated. The shower head wpuld not move. I tried to use the blow dryer and IT SHORTED OUT!!! YES, THE ELECTRIC DEVICE NEXT TO THE SINK, SHORTED OUT when it was turned on. The location was a short walk to the beach, however, the outside sand shower did not work as boasted in the description. I will NEVER stay here again. ZERO STARS was not an option, so I gave it a 1! ##### Brenda H. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kyla W. Aug 3, 2025 ##### Kyla W.
