"Great place
The rental place was great! Just a little walk to the beach! The pool was nice too. Had everything we needed. "
Aug 02, 2023 - , San Antonio, NOTAVAIL



"Totally happy with our experience, as usual
Beachhead Condos is the only place we stay, since 1995, won’t stay anywhere else"
Aug 21, 2022 - Marlen M., Arlington, Tx



"Awesome seaside getaway
We really enjoyed our stay at Jans Oasis. The unit was clean and had nice furnishings, a well equipped kitchen and a great view of the ocean from the balcony. The beach is an easy stroll down the boardwalk and the pool community game room are situated at the high point of the property offering ocean views and breezes. The Beachhead is an all time favorite of my family. We will be back!"
Aug 12, 2022 - Rob L., San Antonio, TX



"Father's Day Get away
We took our son and daughter in law to the beach for Father's Day weekend. She had never been to the Texas coast. The Condo was great clean and comfortable with easy access to the beach, a swimming pool and game room. We had a great time! Check in is easy and key less entry meant no keys to turn in"

"Jan’s Oasis Review - A stay but basic amenities
The apartment was pretty accurately described and the view was very nice, the rooms were spacious but with small beds, had a designated parking spot, and the heated pool was pleasant!
I would say that it felt like a lot more steps involved in the rental due to it being managed by a property management company (ie: several different emails were sent with confirmations, use of an unnecessary app for property, stop at different location to pick up wristbands for the apartment) All a waste of time when all someone needs is a confirmation email with details and a room access code - not provided until you go to property management location, plus a random text was sent day of check in requiring a picture of drivers license for proof of age, which felt totally like a scam -especially when I had to show up in person to pick up my door code and wristbands!). A few things that I also disliked that should be considered: when the place seems to cater to the beach-going out of town folks, the amenities were not very focused on the needs of those who perhaps fly in for a stay. One example is there were ZERO beach items for use, you literally have to bring your own beach chairs, beach toys, beach towels - which is challenging when you fly in for the getaway! The place does not offer anything beyond toilet paper and dish soap for you to wash your own dishes before you check out! Another thing to consider is that there isn’t a private use washer/dryer to use and each load costs $1.50 and is located by the pool house. Not super convenient when you spend all day at the beach or pool and your stuff doesn’t dry overnight (so either pack lots of extras or pay to dry your stuff). The final disappointment, while not a huge deal because the wall was short, was the lack of direct access to the beach via our rented golf cart (which was also solicited to us through the property management affiliate group). Overall, it was a nice stay but cost the same as other places with bet"

"Great get away
Great location. Nice Beach view. Everything you need to enjoy the rental"
Mar 23, 2022 - Sharon K., Charlotte, MI



"Nostalgic after Christmas vacation.
It was a quaint condo located just a short walk from the beach. Upon inspection we found several discrepancies, the light fixture was hanging from the wires on the balcony overlooking the beach, the ceiling fan in the master bedroom had no globe on it, , found a drinking glass in the master bathroom tub diverter needed replaced it was extremely corroded and gross looking when we first ran water out of it got large amounts of corrosion and metal deposits in the tub,the large blinds in the second bedroom were not functional at all overlooking the ocean, robbing us of the view of the ocean, there was no coffee pot as advertised however there was a Keurig machine that we weren't prepared for. Kitchen faucet was nearly unusable it needed a new cartridge obviously every time you would shut it off it would try to turn back on which made it irritating to run the faucet knowing you are going to have trouble getting it shut off. I feel like these were just small things that should have been caught before guests arrive the whole idea is to fix these things while the room is empty, also there was no live television it was all streaming streaming. Now I want to positive note the kitchen had everything you could possibly need for preparing meals and the beds were simply amazing and comfortable in the two bedrooms the view of the ocean was wonderful as advertised the furniture was adequate. The swimming pool was fantastic water was actually warm enough to enjoy in the middle of winter. The game room was fun however air hockey table was inoperable and the television and the game room did not work. The laundry room had no coin changer and many places did not want to give you coins to use for the laundry. The staff did not clarify the entrance to the pool. Staff I spoke to on the phone we're not friendly. The maintenance guy was over the top friendly and helpful and glad I was able to give him suggestions on maintenance to the room. Would rate my stay three out of five stars overall."

"Thanksgiving retreat
Good overall. Would have been nice to know ahead of time that we could NOT sit out on the balcony. "
Dec 14, 2021 - , Austin, TX



"Couldn't have asked for a better retreat!
Our family of 6 was delighted to experience Jan's Oasis 306BH. The views and close proximity to the beach were just amazing! Wish we were still there."
Oct 23, 2021 - Jessica M., Buda, TX



"Thank you!
Thank you for the clean apartment and professional staff. Communication was easy and we had a great time."
Sep 28, 2021 - Jenny L., San Antonio, TX



"Cozy Getaway!
The unit was cozy and had everything you needed for the price. And the view!! The updates were decent but some of the furniture, tv's and rugs could be replaced. The two cons we had were the smell of the unit (we had to buy Febreze spray to use daily) and the closed balcony so could not take advantage of the ocean view. It is a third floor walk up so keep that in mind when booking but didnt bother our family of four. The pool and gaming area were super fun and the ocean view from the pool is stunning. It is an older condo group so do not expect the ritz but overall great value. The property management company was the best in town and we have dealt with quite a few. Very helpful and communicative.

"Beach away from home
It was perfect. The hose was clean and close to the beach. We enjoyed it very much. Will definitely want to visit again. "
Jul 20, 2021 - Jack T., Levelland, TX



"Nice place and location.
Nice place for the price. Cozy rental perfect for our girls trip. Clean, but things needed replacement such as blinds that wouldn't close. Nice view of the water. "
Jul 13, 2021 - Jennie F., San Antonio, TX



"BIG DISAPPOINTMENT
Maybe if you've been to Port A before you'd know this was A THIRD FLOOR WALK UP and AT LEAST 300 YARDS TO THE BEACH. Not a picnic for those with any mobility issues. "
Jun 10, 2021 - Janet S., Seguin, TX



"strange days indeed
overall, pretty good. Very limited view of the ocean, and the stairs were horrible."
Mar 22, 2021 - , Haltom city, TX



"We love Beach Head Condos
My family had a fantastic stay at Jan's Oasis in Beachhead Condos. It was our second summer to stay there and the condo was clean and so close to the beach. A short stroll on the boardwalk and your there. Watching the sunset on the patio is a plus! The pool and gameroom was nice and we grilled out up by the clubhouse. We will stay here again. The only complaint I might have was the BBQ grills were not cleaned out.....I had to do that myself each day at the clubhouse."
Aug 04, 2020 - Kirk L., San Antonio, TX



"Great view and really cute condo
Jan's Oasis is decorated really cute and feels very homey and clean. The view is super and the walk to the beach is very nice. Just get on the board walk and in a few minutes you are there. All the restaurants are so close and so is shopping. We would stay in the condo again!!
"
Jul 25, 2020 - Lisa B., Giddings, TX



"Beautiful condo right on the beach
LOVE Jan's Oasis! It's right on the beach, wonderful boardwalk to water, excellent kitchens and furnishings, great place to unwind and relax. "
Jun 05, 2020 - Kathleen W.



"As close as you can get to the beach
After being cooped up on the house during Covid19 pandemic 2020, on the last week of homeschooling i decided to take the kids to the beach. This condo had a great view of the ocean from the balcony, Cold AC, Boardwalk access to the beach. Also on the property-A heated pool, clubhouse access with games(foosball, table hockey, ping pong), a kitchen, nice grills, tv with youtube. This portion of the beach was significantly less crowded. Walking distance to convenient stores and a few restaurants. Alot of people rent golf carts to drive around the island like we did, it was worth it.One thing i wished was that there was a washer/dryer on the property. This was my first time to Port A, it as great. We will be back! "

"Jan’s Oasis JANUARY 2020
Nice get away with beautiful weather.
The kitchen needs the skillets and toaster replaced"
Jan 22, 2020 - Barbara T., Round Rock, TX



"Great view and perfect location!
We loved it! The view from our balcony was amazing. The room was clean, we loved the location so close to the beach we didnt have to drive, just walked on the boardwalk. We loved going to the pool and were able to relax and see the ocean view from the pool. We did get plenty of exercise going up and down the stairs and the walk going to the beach. We rate our stay 5stars�� "

No better place to stay in PA. Beach views, beach access via boardwalk, walking distance to town."
May 08, 2019 - Chris H.



"Great Stay April 12-15
Wife, Brother-in-Law and I stayed in Jan's Oasis April 12-15 to do some fishing and enjoy Port A. We've been coming to Beachhead for many years, and this is by far our favorite unit. Great decor with mounted sailfish, new beds and furniture, very clean, but same great view. "
Apr 19, 2019 - , Austin, TX



"Nice rest
The facilities were great, all we hoped for. The weather on the other hand was not nice. Rarely above 60 degrees, gray overcast most days with lots of wind & rain. Only a handful of sunny days above 60 & moderate wind. We also felt your company personal could be more welcoming & interest in their customers."
Feb 06, 2019 - Emerson W., Mendon, MA



"September Trip
Loved this condo! It is very comfortable and has a great view of the water! The kitchen has been redone with all new appliances. The only drawback this time, because of recent rains, the boardwalk (which is usually a plus) was covered with standing water in three places that had to be waded through if you wanted to get to the beach. Because of several days of standing water, not only in our parking space but also on the surrounding grounds, mosquitoes were rampant! That being said, it is normally such a great place that we will be back."
Sep 30, 2018 - , Brenham, Texas



"Great Condo
My vacatiion experience was very good. I would deff recommend this to anyone. The only thing I would say is that the price for the rental was prob a little more then what it was worth. but overall everything went well."
Sep 12, 2018 - Ben L., Plano, TX



"Jan’s Oasis
Super comfortable beds. Clean place. Love the location with convenient boardwalk access to beach. Wish we could have stayed longer. Also loved the balcony with ocean view. "

"Great escape at the beach
Roomy condo in perfect spot on beach. Loved every minute. "
Jun 07, 2018 - Melissa D., San Antonio, TX



"Seashell Decor
We enjoyed the property's updated decor and looking at the many seashells. But the mattresses were very uncomfortable and should be replaced. Can't stay here again for that reason. Also, pots and pans were dirty and had to be washed before use (dried egg on them)!"
May 06, 2018 - , Round Rock, TX



"Great Stay!
Only minor complaints, but overall very satisfied."
Mar 29, 2018 - , Thornton, CO



"July 2017 Stay
this is the second time we have stayed at this location. Both units were very good, great location, enjoyed both the Gulf and big swimming pool.
I would recommend looking into these properties if you are going to visit Port Aransas ."
Jul 11, 2017 - Patricia M., Houston, TX



"Awesome Beach Access and View
The condo was decorated with classy beach décor. The views from the second bedroom, living area, and balcony were spectacular. The only issue we had was the neighboring unit. They had three vehicles and used our second spot. My daughter had to squeeze her car at an angle behind our truck the first night. The second night she had to park in visitor parking all the way at the front of the complex. This was at midnight so not ideal in the safety department; a teenager having to walk so far so late at night. We thought if we parked our truck in our secondary spot, our daughter would have our spot marked with OUR rental unit number since she was returning late after visiting with nearby friends. Nope, they parked there too. We lucked out Sunday morning the truck in our spot left briefly enough for us to pull in and utilize all four doors of our vehicle to load up for our departure. He came back as we were loading and looked at us like we were inconveniencing him. Frustrating that the rental agency nor the owner could effectively deal with this the entire weekend.

Great experience: condo was perfect, beaches were clean, and food was outstanding!"
Mar 28, 2016 - Joyce A., Hico, Texas



"Spring Break 2016
Good.However, found trash underneath the bedroom nearest the kitchen, and the bed creaks each time one moves...not good for a good night's rest.Shower in bathroom with twin beds is broken and will eventually create damage to the wall. 1 chair at table is very stained. Otherwise, we were pleased."
Mar 19, 2016 - , Mico, TX



"My vacation stay
Had a good time going to the beach but the room was very outdated. The batteries for the TV were gone. The stand the TV was on rocked back and forth. There was not a broom or mop to clean up so the sand began to accumulate on floor. Adirondike chairs on balcony were short. Could not see over rail. "
Sep 02, 2015 - Nancy M., Hondo, TX



"Family Vacation
Our vacation stay was totally awesome, we have stayed in Port A once before last year but we were 7 miles further from town. This place has an excellent location and we are really close to the water. The property is clean and the leasing agency folks are really nice and helpful. We would recommend this place to everyone."
Aug 26, 2015 - Adrian C., Round Rock, TX



"grand experience
Great experience, but for two things: 1)Two flights of stairs was difficult for my handicapped wife, and 2) the toaster has a broken heating core. "
Aug 03, 2015 - , Ransom Canyon, Texas



"Great location and clean!
Loved staying here. Great for kids and close walk to the beach. Very clean and nice view of the ocean. Kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans, coffee pot, cutting board and wine glasses ;-). Bedrooms are a nice size and living dining area is too. We will be coming back in a couple of weeks and can't wait. "

"Good Experience and Great Value
This was a wonderful affordable place to stay. The condo was clean and nice and has a good view from the outside porch. We would stay here again without hesitation."
Feb 25, 2015 - Derrick C., San Antonio, TX



"Don't stay here.
This was by far the grossest condo I have ever stayed in. I do not recommend it or the rental company at all. The carpet and chairs were all stained the shower head was black with filth and two bugs visited us as well. I asked the company to change units and they said u picked it you are stuck with it. I was shocked buy this behavior considering they recommend the unit to me. We only stayed here 2 days out of our 9 day stay and the condo we were in at Sea Isle Village was beautiful and I highly recommend it unit 16. As for (Property Management) rental company I would just use vbro and homeaway I have never used them before and will never use them again. I do think if this unit was taken care of better it could be nice but in its current condition it's horrible. We come to portA 2 times a year and have never experienced such conditions and rental company. "

Good4"
Jul 26, 2014 - melissa P., Mansfield, TX



"Not worth the price
The place was decent if all your going to be doing is sleeping. Needs some up keep done to it. Carpets were very dirty. Side of fridge had rust all down the side of it. Knives were so dull then wouldn't cut anything. Our main problem was that we needed it to sleep 6 people, which it would have except that there where no sheets for the pull out. Only given a small blanket and 2 pillows with no case on them. There is no one there to speak with if you have an issue. The main office was closed the whole time we were there and the management company couldn't help us. Also there are only 4 towels so if you are going to need more bring them from home. Channel button on the living room tv didn't work. Otherwise it was fine. Don't think we will be staying there again for the price we paid."
Jul 23, 2014 - Derek A., Burnet, TX



"Fun in Port A
The condo was in a great location. However, it needed updating. Even some of the newer appliances appeared to need maintenance (light shade loose in bathroom, vent over range filter broken) We did enjoy our trip, though and will return."
Jul 15, 2014 - janet s., temple, tx



"A great place to stay at Port A
We have stayed at Beachhead several years now and still think it is a great place to stay. Great access to beach and Port A shopping and eating. It also allows 2-night stays and not the 3-night mandatory stay that most other condos require. "
May 28, 2014 - Joe C., kerrville, Tx



"Condo review
Condo was outdated. Needs tile floors not carpet on the beach. Needs a lot of repairs. I would not stay there again. At 225 a night. It was not worth the price. I have stayed in better condos at south padre for same rate. "

"great location
The location was fabulous. Quick walk to the beach. We could sit out on the balcony and enjoy the waves. The staff was very helpful and friendly. I would definitely rent from you again!"
Oct 11, 2013 - , Schertz, Tx



"Jan's Oasis Perfect spot for my family
This is the first time we've rented a condo and not a hotel room so I was a bit nervous. The location of this condo was right off the beach and the view was the best. We could see the beach from the balcony and bedroom and living room window, great views. We were only steps away from the boardwalk that takes you right out onto to the beach. Checking in and out was seemless. The unit was very clean and beautifully decorated, definitely a great place to relax and kids to enjoy. We would love to come back and stay here again. "
Oct 04, 2013 - Jessica G., SA, Tx



"Aged/Roaches
Well the trip started with hauling all our stuff up 2 flights of stairs, which we expected because we had stayed here before. I decided to give Beachhead a second chance because of how great it was to stay in town despite the fact that our room was disgusting the first time! We walk in to the room and the smell hit us like a brick wall. I think it was cleaning products but I can't describe it. We look past that because the furniture was in a little better shape than the previous stay. The carpet was again disgusting and I walk in the master bedroom and there in the middle of the floor was a dead roach. The comforters were gross but the sheets and towels were clean. Bring your own towels or detergent to wash yours because they will NOT bring you any more. The playground is a nice idea but there is no shade so kids can really only play on it early in the morning. There was one more live roach in our ice chest in the kitchen when we were packing up. There were rude older women at the pool the one time we went. All in all, unless I was in a REAL predicament I would not stay here. If I wouldn't have gotten the Groupon BOTH times I would have never stayed here. I would MAYBE give it one more chance if I got a MUCH nicer room."
Oct 01, 2013 - Lauren N., Seguin, Tx



"Nice stay - condo's just ok
Stayed at Jan's Oasis for a weekend early August. I had read some bad reviews regarding roaches/other bugs in the unit, so the first thing I did when I arrived was to open every cupboard and peek into every dark corner. No sign of bugs alive or dead, so it looks like they took care of that problem. Unit needs a new couch (old and a little dirty), and blinds weren't installed right so they came crashing down when we tried to open them. So a couple negatives, but everything else was good. Well stocked in the kitchen, all appliances worked, beds were comfortable. Only other thing I didn't like is it is far enough back from the ocean that you can see the ocean but can't feel any breeze. So it made sitting on the balcony pretty warm. Easy walk to the beach across the boardwalk. I did notice that Beachhead was the most quiet place I have ever stayed at Port A, so if you are looking for quiet you will appreciate that. Be aware it is a 3rd floor unit, so two fairly large flights of stairs. The assigned parking right under the unit was very convenient though. The pool looked ok, but we didn't use it. All in all, similar to most Port A condos - could be nicer and maintained a little better - but that is very much typical of Port A - not much incentive to keep the condos in great shape when they know they will be able to rent them out regardless…"

"Nice Layout
It rained everyday so we spent a lot of time in the condo. It was nice. I just wish it had a bathroom entrance from the main room and not just the bed rooms."

"Overall good stay
We stayed in the same room we've stayed during other visits. It is obvious this condo is in desperate need of some upgrades. Molding and baseboards were coming off the wall, towel holders were broken, refrigerator in need of painting as it was covered in rust. While our overall experience was good, I think on our next visit, we will be staying in a different condo. "

"Good Beach Stay
The vacation rental was very nice. My only issue was that we found a dead roach inside the coach when we pulled out the bed. When we got to the rental the key was under the mat i was told it would be in a lock box so we were trying to get into a different condo that was not our and i had to call the front office to find out where the key was. When we were leaving the rental the front office was not opened and we had to search for the building to drop the key off by 11 or we would have had to pay for another day, and when i typed the address into my GPS it said it was 36 minutes away, thankfully i called and it was just down the street."

"This unit is tired!
This unit need updated; with pictures, fresh paint, putting the master bedroom facing the gulf, removing old carpet, and getting rid of those ugly big fish. I would not stay in this unit again. However, the view is a million dollar view of the gulf and shipping cannel."

"Port A Getaway
Overall our experience was great but there is room for improvement. There were very few utensils in the kitchen - only one teaspoon! All of the dishware could use an upgrade. The remote for the tv did not work well and there was no remote for the DVD player. Condo was nice for a short stay but is a little worn around the edges. Could use some TLC but great location and great time overall."

"Great location, but poorly kept up and roaches love it there.
We had to check in/out at a seperate location. Condo is in need of alot of repairs, bath faucets are almost coming out of the wall, doors stick, bad foundation-you can feel the sloping going from one room to the next, very old buildings. And I had a huge roach crawling on me in bed in the middle of the night. Turned on all the lights in the condo and they were in every room! Management didn't seem concerned, hasn't even responded to my complaint. Kid's playground was nice, location is great but we won't be back, kind of hard to get over sleeping with roaches. "

"Port A Condo
I bought a Groupon site unseen for Beachhead Condos in Port Aransas. The condo was conveniently located to the beach. Although an older property, it was well maintained. Our condo was comfortable with nice furniture and amenities. I noticed roaches in the kitchen but this is the Texas coast. I'd stay there again. We had a really good time. "

"Great Place To Stay
My family and I (two adults - 2 children) recently stayed at this Condo and we were very satisfied. The location was great, kid friendly & most importantly view was amazing. We vacation to Port A at least once a year and this was by far the best trip due to convenience of location. For me, the highlight of the trip was coming in every night after a long day at the beach and relaxing on the private balcony over looking the ocean while the kids made themselves comfortable indoors. It is a quiet & peaceful community so if that's what you're looking for this is definitely the place to stay. Highly recommend.

"Great Port A weekend
This condo was very nice and homey. Counters, bathrooms, linens, etc were all much cleaner than any hotel we've been to, Except by the second day there were small roaches in the kitchen. The only other complaint is that the Internet never worked. Management explained that it was an issue with TimeWarner. Again, we were very happy with the grounds and location. We would go back in the future."

"A Bit of a Disappointment
My husband and I have been going to BeachHead for over 12 years. We have a lot of wonderful memories there and have always loved that it's very family friendly and not overcrowded with wonderful access to the beach. This time was rather disappointing. We noticed the outside of the property had a lot of repairs done and looked nice, but the inside of the unit (306 BH) was lacking in several ways. There were a ton of bugs in the kitchen that we had to kill nightly. Also, the kitchen spoons were short (only 2 regular spoons). There was no back up TP in one bathroom. The internet connection was terrible even after calling Port A office, they were unable to resolve it for us. The DVD only showed black and white. The sofa was soiled and the master bed spread had many brown stains. On the back patio, there were only 2 chairs for a room that sleeps 4. We also felt the cost per night was too high, considering the condition. We also felt that there should not be an additional cleaning fee attached to the bill. That should be taken care of in the $240 a night. When I went home and called Port A about my experience, I spoke with Donna Lou who I felt to be rather unsympathetic. While not outright rude, I felt she was lacking in concern. She was quick to place blame on BeachHead property instead of taking responsibility. She also placed the blame on ME for not letting them know sooner. THEY are the ones that should check out each unit for shortcomings so customers don't have to complain! She even had the audacity to tell me at the end of our conversation that maybe I would be better off trying another property next time. She clearly has no real investment in this property. I finally spoke to Cynthia at Beachhead directly. She was very sweet and symapthetic and assured me she was working on the issues. I greatly appreciated her attitude and will give them another try."

"Overall very nice experience!
We have stayed at the Beachhead Condos in the past and have had a very nice experience every time. The location to the beach can't be beat. The pool is always clean and well maintained and offers a nice alternative to the sand and ocean.

We were disappointment with the internet access; we were never able to connect, despite multiple attempts. Others in our group had problems, as well.

Overall, well worth the stay!! "

"Summer vacation
Ceiling fan in bedroom with queen bed did not work. Very bright in both rooms all night. Curtains or darker blinds would of been nice. Everything else was good. "

"Great Long Weekend 2012
We stayed for Memorial Day weekend Thursday-Monday. We picked this location because it was literally in the middle of town. Last year we stayed in a condo 15 minutes away and it felt too isolated. Check-in was a breeze as always. Once we got to the condo I was surprised because the place felt bigger then the pictures made me think it would be. We had six adults and we had plenty of room. The view was awesome. This third floor location allows you to see over the dunes into the water. However, you don't see the beach itself so even on this busy weekend it was quiet and you didn't feel the crowds. All the appliances worked perfectly. The A/C was on a comfortable 76 when we got there and the fridge was cold and ready for our food. The deck could use a few more chairs but we had beach chairs so it was not a problem. The pool was very nice for the first couple days but by Sunday it was looking fairly yellow and dirty. I was told it was from mismanagement of chemicals by others who have had pools. The playground was fun for the little one. It was in good shape with plenty of things to climb and swing on. All in all this was a great place in a great location. I would stay again for sure!!"

"Great Location - Poor Property Management
Made reservations online with written dates, then via phone. Called twice on day of arrival. Upon arrival found out reservations where made for next month. They quickly found a comparable condo. Upon arrival at condo couldn't get in because of corrosion in deadlock key hole. Luckily someone from prop mgt showed up and got the door open. Were supposed to send locksmith. We locked door knob lock to go to dinner. Upon return door was unlocked but deadbolt not fixed. Locksmith never showed up. Other than that, condo was nice and you can't beat right on the beach. "

"
We have stayed at this property the past 3 years. The only complaint that we have about this stay, was that a very rude lady approached us outside our property about our golf carts. The way she approached us and with the tone she took was very unprofessional and did not set well with us at all. She said she had complaints about "girls" driving too fast on the property and going over speed bumps way too fast. When we were approached by her, she totally caught us off guard. We were like it can not be us, because for one, us "ladies" (2 of us being 40, one of us being 49 and the other 60) were by no means speeding on the golf carts, plus 2 of us ladies have extremely large breasts, which would make speeding over the speed bumps a huge discomfort and we also had a handicap child we were transporting, therefore I don't see how any of us could be speeding over the speed bumps with him either. The more we thought about it, it made us very upset. For one there are no speed limits on that property and 2 of us had brand new golf carts from cars and carts and the govenors were set to not go over 10mph and we knew that because we complained that they were too slow and we felt like we were holding up traffic at times because they were so slow. So with that being said, not happy at all about the approach from whomever this lady was. She should have asked questions and been more pleasant with her approach and maybe did some investigating before her attack. Regarding the property manager question above...we rated the check in and check out process, along with the reservation process a 5, if this lady was the property manager, we would rate her a 1."

"Beachead 306
I did not feel this particular unit was up to my standards, bed squeaked where you couldnt sleep, water roach in kitchen
furniture in living room totally uncomfortable and needs replacing by the owner. The repairman came and did his best.
The view is tremendous but so are other
locations and I would not rent this unit again"

"Beachhead comments
We, along with two other families been coming to Port A and staying at the Beachhead for the past 11 years. We always enjoy staying in Jan's Oasis. However, I've got to say that the rates have gotten too high, given what is happening to the economy and next year we will be looking for an alternate place to stay."
