Updated Home at Lost Colony w/ Ocean View - Close to Beach/Dog Friendly

Lost Colony Laidback Hideaway

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

This renovated 3BR/2.5BA home is only steps from the beach and pool at Lost Colony, the only resort community in Port Aransas that sits directly on the closest dunes to the beach. You'll love the amazing ocean views from the two outdoor decks, and you'll be only minutes away from all the Port A shops, restaurants, and attractions.

Two oceanfront decks are perfect for family gatherings or quiet relaxation: a large second-story deck has room for the group to dine and lounge, while a small third-story deck off the master bedroom is a quiet place for morning coffee or evening conversation.

Property is 100 feet from the beach. The boardwalk to the beach is right off the deck and the pool is behind the home.

INSIDE THE HOUSE

Featuring comfortable seating in seashore colors, driftwood accents and a large flat-screen TV, the open living room is ideal for post-beach gatherings. Here, a queen-size Murphy bed folds out to accommodate two additional guests.

Adjacent, a sun-filled dining area features a wooden table with chair and bench seating for six. Open the doors to the patio to let the ocean breeze in, or take your meals outside and enjoy them on a second-story oceanfront deck.

Three bedrooms offer plush bedding and cozy accommodations. An ocean-view third-floor master suite has a king-size bed, abundant natural light and access to a private balcony where two can lounge in the sun.

The second bedroom, also on the third floor, is a queen-size bed with bright and cheery décor.

The third bedroom is on the 2nd floor and has a double bed with a twin trundle.

Enjoy the convenience of two and half bathrooms, updated and full of beach chic finishes. Upstairs you’ll find two full bathrooms, one with a tub/shower combination and one with a walk-in shower. On the second story is an additional half bath.

Guest amenities include parking for up to four vehicles and a washer/dryer.

OUR LOCATION

Here, you’re perfectly positioned to make the most of your Lost Colony location. Soak in the sun by the community pool, just steps away, or wander the wooden boardwalk just outside your home that leads right to the sun, surf and sand.

You’re just 10 minutes from downtown’s shopping, dining, nightlife and excitement. Enjoy casual fare in laidback digs at Beach and Station Street Grill or gourmet seafood and steak at Roosevelt’s.

Wonderful Home! 20 yards from the beach. Could see the ocean and waves. Lots of stairs. Very clean and well decorated. Nice balconies. It needs a pair of kitchen scissors, a few throw blankets, and a flat baking pan for heating up left overs or baking biscuits, etc. Other than that, a fabulous place. We had a great time!

Fantastic location

The house was nicely kept with an amazing view and easy beach access. Lots of items to use if you choose to spend time on the beach. We were there the first week of February, so it was nice and quiet, it almost felt like we had the beach to ourselves. We would definitely stay there again.

Enjoyed Our Stay

My group of 8 friends were in Port Aransas for Sandfest. We enjoyed our stay at Lost Colony, and especially liked that we just walked a short distance to the beach. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the rooms were comfortable and spacious enough for us. I would definitely stay there again.
