Makin Waves - Close To Everything!

Minimum age to book- 25.

Makin Waves is located on the first floor of a privately owned home with its own private entrance. The only thing between Makin Waves and the beach are the sand dunes. The beach is only a short distance, approximately 3/4 of mile via access road 1-A. Everything Port Aransas has to offer is only minutes away, including the beach, ferry, marina, golf, shops and restaurants. We are just one block off 11th Street, near the intersection of Beach Access Road 1A. Close to everything!!

Our unit comfortably sleeps 4 guests, but can accommodate up to 6 guests with 1 bedroom & 1 bathroom. Makin Waves is perfect for a couple or small family. The master bedroom features a queen-sized bed with linens. The family room features 2 built-in twin bunk beds and a full-sized sofa sleeper.

We feature all the conveniences of home, including a fully equipped eat-in kitchen with all customary appliances, granite counter-tops with 4 bar-stools, washer/dryer, linens and towels for 6, spectrum cable and internet service, parking for two vehicles and a private patio facing the beautiful sand dunes.

We look forward to welcoming you to your home away from home while visiting our beautiful city - Port Aransas.
