Port A Condo + einfacher Strandzugang + Pool + Tennis-, Pickleball- und Basketballplatz

Welcome to Rest Ashored, a relaxed coastal hideaway tucked into one of Port Aransas’ most beloved beachfront communities. Just moments from the shoreline and set within Island Retreat, this one-bedroom condo offers easy access to sandy mornings, salt-air sunsets, and the laid-back rhythm that defines life on Mustang Island.

Inside, comfort takes center stage. The living room invites you to unwind after a day in the sun, whether that means stretching out with a movie or sharing quiet conversation over a nightcap. A dining table for three creates the perfect setting for casual breakfasts before the beach or simple dinners made in the full kitchen, thoughtfully equipped with all the essentials for effortless at-home meals.

The primary bedroom features a king bed designed for deep, uninterrupted rest, while the full bathroom includes a convenient shower/tub combo—ideal for rinsing off after long beach days. In the living room, a queen sleeper sofa and a twin loveseat offer additional sleeping options, bringing the home’s total occupancy to five guests. The layout feels intimate yet flexible, making it a comfortable choice for couples, small families, or friends looking to slow down and reconnect by the coast.

Beyond your front door, Island Retreat’s shared amenities elevate the experience. Cool off in the community pool, challenge each other to a match on the tennis court, or shoot hoops on the basketball court before heading back inside to relax. The property’s proximity to the beach means spontaneous shoreline strolls and sunrise walks are always within reach.

When you’re ready to explore, Port Aransas offers a charming mix of coastal adventure and small-town flavor. Spend the afternoon fishing off the Horace Caldwell Pier, book a dolphin-watching tour, or head toward Mustang Island State Park for kayaking and birding. Local seafood spots, beach bars, and live music venues are just a short drive away, giving you plenty of ways to fill your days—or simply enjoy doing nothing at all.

At Rest Ashored, everything you need is within easy reach: beach access, shared resort-style amenities, a fully equipped kitchen, and a peaceful king suite waiting at the end of the day. Here, the pace slows, the sea breeze lingers, and relaxation comes naturally.
