A great home in the perfect location

We had an amazing stay at the Shell Shack! The location at the end of the road made it feel incredibly safe, private, and peaceful—perfect for a relaxing getaway. The home itself is thoughtfully laid out with plenty of space in every area, making it comfortable for everyone. One of our favorite features was the spacious area under the house, which was ideal for outdoor activities and hanging out. The heated pool truly made all the difference and added an extra level of enjoyment to our stay. From start to finish, the experience was seamless. The communication was excellent, and the detailed instructions made everything easy and stress-free. We would absolutely recommend the Shell Shack and would love to stay again!

Perfect Girls Trip Vibe

We just spent the weekend at this beautiful beach house in Port Aransas for a girls’ trip with 10 ladies, and it was absolutely perfect! From the moment we arrived, everything was spotless, comfortable, and exactly as described. The house had plenty of space for all of us—no issues at all with bathrooms or sleeping arrangements. The beds were cozy, the layout was great, and everyone felt at home. We loved having both the pool and the beach, it gave us the best of both worlds. In between lounging and catching up, we enjoyed exploring the local bars, restaurants, and shops, which made the location even more ideal. It was the perfect mix of relaxation, fun, and connection. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay, and we’ll definitely be recommending this home to anyone planning a getaway to Port A.

Perfect for our family getaway

This home was perfect for our family of 5, but had so much more room than we used. Huge bonus is the golf cart and private pool. Had everything we needed in the kitchen and a surplus of towels and extra bed linens. We stay in Port A a few times a year and this home had the coolest and best A/C we've ever come across. We would definitely stay again and recommend this home to others.

family birthday weekend

This is the second time we have booked with three20properties however, this was the first time in the shell shack since it's dog friendly. The reason we keep coming back to three20properties is the pools at both properties, cleanliness, golf cart discount and the option to bring your family pet. Shell Shack was perfect for our two families and the two pups we brought with us. The house was clean and well stocked plus the binder was super helpful as to where to eat and what needs to get done for check out. Can I say the pool was a huge hit and one of the main reasons why we book with three20properties. After a long day at the beach, the pool is the perfect end. The living room was big enough to hold everyone for an evening of couch cuddling and popcorn.

PERFECT PLACE FOR PERFECT VACATION

We arrived about 6pm and had a little issue with the entry process but communication with the Manager/Owner was easy and they were able to fix the lock issue with no other problems. The house is beautiful, exactly like the pictures. The swimming pool is great, perfect for the family to enjoy. Quiet area, the house sits at the end of the road, so there wasn't any thru traffic, which is nice. Plenty of towels for both bath and pool are provided. They also have board games for family to enjoy, which we did. Everything about this home was perfect and we will definitely be back.

Best communication, lovely property, perfect for runners!

We spent our family Christmas/New Year during the great freeze of 2022 🤣 Despite the challenges that the weather provided, Kathy made sure that we were 110% taken care of. We absolutely loved having the beach within walking distance and the private pool for relaxing and splashing. Special note for runners *there is many miles of beach front that is runable, I ran every morning (felt completely safe running as a lone female) and enjoyed watching the sun come up. We had a really hard time leaving definitely plan on coming back!!!

Do not rent this property!

We checked in 15 min early, that being said 15 hours later would not have been enough time to correct problems. House very dirty, burners on stove not working. Dishwasher leaking. Shower in master broke. Only one towel provided in master. Hardly any dishes not near enough to cook a proper meal, even if the stove worked. Had lots of peel and stick notes on everything. Lots of cleaning expected to be done yet nothing provided to do so. No kitchen towels to even wipe counter available.Large yellow stain resembling /smelling of cat piss in second bedroom. Only 2 wash pods provided but even if I wanted to wash it the stupid notes leaved all over the place asked not to Wash comforters. Sand in every bed, except one bunk bed! Home HOT. Another note asked not to turn thermostat below 70 total understand that yet house never cooled below 75. We had to go to the store and purchase basic cleaning supplies just to stay.
