Welcome to Below Deck! This bright and colorful efficiency unit is tucked away in a quiet area, but is within walking distance of shops, restaurants, and everything that Port A has to offer. The beach is only a few blocks down Avenue G and is perfect for a quick beach getaway or fishing trip. It has a queen bed and a private bathroom with a tub/shower combination. There is a small refrigerator, microwave, and coffee maker for your convenience. A wi-fi enabled smart television to stream your subscription programming and wireless internet are included with your stay. Outside, you'll find a small patio for enjoying the gulf breezes and a fenced SHARED yard that is shared by the complex for your four-legged friends to use. We've just added a shared breezeway for the complex with covered seating and a game area. It's a perfect place to unwind after a day at the beach. There is one parking space for this condo. Any additional cars, boats or trailers will need to be parked on the street. There is not a washer/dryer in the unit, so please plan accordingly. Below Deck is one of five units on the property which can be rented if you have additional guests. Contact us for more details or with assistance in booking multiple units. This property is DOG friendly. We welcome well trained dogs that are not labeled as "aggressive breeds" with a limit of 1 dog for this small space. We charge a $25 pet fee and ask that you pick up after them when they do their duties outside and kennel or crate them if they are left home alone. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the apartment: Free internet ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Food and drink - Coffee/tea maker - Microwave - Paper towels - Refrigerator ### Bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 private bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Garden - Patio - Yard ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washer/dryer ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - One pet total (up to 50 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Wheelchair accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - In the city center - Near a health/beauty spa - Near the bay - Near the marina - Near the sea ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Motor boating nearby - Parasailing nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![BBQ/picnic area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/1000000/120000/118600/118518/625c75fb.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Ocean's Edge Hotel, Port Aransas,TX Port Aransas - Pool - Breakfast included - Pet-friendly - Parking included 8.8 Excellent 1,211 reviews CA $86 CA $98 total includes taxes & fees Oct 29 - Oct 30 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-29&endDate=2025-10-30&selected=118518&PinnedHotelID=118518&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Marina](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/23000000/22130000/22120200/22120133/08ece14a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cutest cottage in all of Port A!
