Welcome to Danzin' on the Beach, a bright and breezy coastal townhome tucked inside the popular Pirate's Bay resort community in Port Aransas. With soaring vaulted wood ceilings, an open-concept living and dining area, and a covered back porch strung with warm string lights, this home has the kind of laid-back coastal energy that makes it easy to unwind the moment you arrive. Comfortably sleeping up to 10 guests, it's perfectly sized for multigenerational families and groups who want room to spread out, without sacrificing the togetherness that makes a beach trip special.



Inside, the heart of the home is the open floor plan: a spacious living room with leather recliner seating and a flat-screen TV, a dining area with bench seating for six beneath pendant lights and soaring wood-beamed ceilings, and a fully equipped kitchen with granite countertops, stainless appliances, and a breakfast bar. Whether it's morning coffee at the counter or a feast after a long beach day, the kitchen has everything you need. Step outside to the covered back porch, the spot that quickly becomes everyone's favorite. Strung with Edison lights and outfitted with wicker lounge furniture and a ceiling fan, it's ideal for evening cocktails, morning coffee, or simply soaking in the salty Gulf breeze.



The sleeping layout is thoughtfully designed to accommodate a crowd. The primary suite features a king bed with coastal blue decor, a large flat-screen TV, a work desk, and a beautiful en suite bathroom with double granite vanities and a walk-in shower. The second bedroom offers a king bed with ocean-inspired decor and access to the shared hallway bathroom. The third bedroom is a king master suite with a fun, beach-themed touch and its own ensuite bathroom. Just off the main living area, the bunk room sleeps the younger crowd in twin-over-twin bunk beds complete with surfboard decor and a curtained sleeping nook for extra privacy, perfect for kids or teens who want their own space. Three full bathrooms (two ensuite, one shared hallway bath) ensure there's never a line at the mirror.
