Perfect for family getaways
This place is perfect spot for family getaway in Port A. Kids had a blast at pool which is good sized and has a small toddler areas at start and slide in between for older kids. The place itself also had all facilities. Kitchen was nicely equipped and everything worked fine except the dryer. Will definitely recommend it and would like to visit it again.

Holidays at Port A
Our entire group has such a great time over Christmas and New Years! The condo was amazing and the pool was warm, even during a cold front! We had enough room for our entire group, both for group time and alone time. It is a quick walk to the beach and has enough room to park a golf cart (if you rent one). The only draw back was the feral cats that “sang” outside our window a couple of nights. LOL!!! I would absolutely recommend Piggy’s Perch and look forward to come back!

Great stay in Port A
We enjoyed our stay here! The location was about 2 blocks from the beach so it was an easy walk or drive. We loved that the unit was next door to the pool, so it made it easy to grab stuff inside while at the pool. The beds were comfortable and the number of bathrooms was excellent. There were a good amount of pots and pans for cooking, no blender, and just 10 sets of silverware. Bring your own spices and beach/pool towels as none were provided. Overall great stay!

Locate great! Beautiful rental. Need a better cleaning service. Bedding covers looked dirty stained , dust on ceiling fans and floor boards. Some shutters are broken , locks on doors get stuck. Swimming pool awesome. But some renters let older children unattended and children were jumping off the rocks.

Misleading description
We just stayed at this home for Memorial Day weekend. First off the home is part of a townhome complex and not a stand alone home which we did not know. It is close to the beach but not walking distance. The home is also right next to the pool. First off, we were not given any information on the place until 20 minutes prior to arrival. I had to message the host to get the address the day before because I did not know where to go. Upon arrival & the delayed email, we were informed that the bare minimum would be given to us for our stay and we would have to buy anything else we needed. They give you a very small and thin slab of soap (not in all bathrooms), one roll of toilet paper per toilet, and two trash bags. Other than that you need to buy everything else. They have coffee machines but no coffee provided. They did have utensils, cups, plates, and some cooking utensils. No salt and pepper, no oil or cooking spray provided. The A/c did not work the first day and was fixed later that night at 11:30 PM. Thermostat did not work so the place was freezing for the rest of the stay. Please note that this unit is right next to the pool. This is great for during the day but at night time it is a nightmare. I understand it was Memorial Day weekend so there were a lot of people. The parties would go until 2-3 AM. We called property management which didn’t do anything. Had to do multiple noise complaints with the cops and they would go out there but once they left the people would come back full force. Overall, we would not recommend or book this place again. We left miserable as our children could not sleep at night because of the noise and temperature.

Piggy’s Perch Perks
Very nice house, tastefully decorated, nice bedding. Extra pillows. A full bathroom for each bedroom bonus perk! Plus half bath on main floor- check! Unit situated right next to pool- very convenient w private gate access from back door. You also get a 3rd parking spot- yahoo! Nice clean garage to store all beach stuff w water hose at front door for rinsing stuff off. The washing machine was out of order and we were not notified of that prior to arrival - not a deal breaker- I just would’ve brought more beach towels. Kitchen well stocked w dishes, utensils but you need to provide ALL condiments. I’m thinking because of COVID they are not providing hand soap in dispensers (if so empty dispensers should be removed?) so pack your own hand/body soap. We really enjoyed the house and everyone having their own personal space.

Long Weekend Getaway
I will say the property itself was awesome! Very clean and the layout worked perfectly for us. Unit is right next to the pool! Make sure to bring condiments, coffee, etc....as there is nothing provided other than basic cooking utensils, plates, etc..... Down side was issues with people trying to park in our designated parking spaces and management was not available to address the issue; was later in eve. and office was closed. If you have 2 cars and go somewhere in one, park the second car sideways to occupy both spaces. .

Nice property, close to lots of good beaches
Our extended family group enjoyed our stay at this property. Let me summarize the pros and cons: Pros: -- new property, nicely decorated, good space. -- the awesome pool is adjacent to this condo, so you can go there easily -- they have efficient noise-blocking windows on the pool side of the condo, so even though people were partying (with loud music) over there most of the time, we didn't hear it in the condo -- good proximity to several nice beaches (10-30 min drive) Cons: -- some of the basic things we have come to expect from VRBO properties were not there (maybe b/c it's new?). There was no salt/pepper. No shampoo/soap provided. Only one roll of toilet paper per bathroom. -- check-in process was exasperating. We were driving to the real-estate office to pick up the key, per the instructions on their website. Then I got a call from a gal in the office, wanting me to provide my credit card number immediately (while I'm driving!). Pulled over, provided CC#, then was told "we're not allowing anyone in our office due to Covid; it's a keyless entry with a keypad." That's great (actually more convenient with multiple adults), BUT we drove an HOUR out of our way to go get this "key"!!! They need to update this info on their website (Covid has been doing on for 18 months now!) -- also, the gate code for the pool that was listed on the check-in instructions, was incorrect. We had to get the code from some other folks at the condos (half the people just left the gate ajar anyway, but that turned into a problem when my 2 yr old wandered out of the gate into the parking lot!) Overall, it's a good property, no major problems. Just some kinks to work out.

Great Unit
Unit was very clean and spacious! There is three flights of stairs which was not a problem for us but could be for an older person. Love that our unit was right next to the pool(great pool) and even though the pool was next to our unit you could not hear any noise. The kitchen was well equipped. It was also nice to have a garage to put your sandy beach stuff instead of dragging it into the unit.
