RD334: The Happy Enchilada
5BR / 4.5BA / 14 Guests / Shared Pools / Shared Hot Tub / Boardwalk / Charcoal Grill / Elevator / Pet Friendly / Golf Cart Accessible / Parking for 4 Vehicles, No Garage Access

**COMING FOR SPRING OF 2026 PRIVATE POOL**

The Happy Enchilada is just what the doctor ordered. This home has recently received updated décor and has been repainted inside and out. Enjoy incredible panoramic views of not just the ocean and sand dunes over which you can see the sunrises, but also 70 acres of wild salt grass and a view of the bay for watching Port A sunsets. Bring more luminescence and relaxation into your next vacation with incomparable Port Aransas sunrises and views of the waves over the dunes from the third-floor balcony of this grand home. This comfortable five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath property lies right off the Texas Gulf Coast in the quiet neighborhood of Royal Sands. The main living/kitchen area is on the third floor.
**Elevator services all three levels**

Step into the front door to a downstairs living/kitchen space with a separate bedroom. This area has a flat-screen TV, sleeper sofa, accent chair, breakfast table with seating for 3, sink with granite countertop, stove/range, dishwasher, fridge, microwave, blender, and drip coffee maker. The laundry closet on this floor offers a stackable washer/dryer and room for hanging delicates. The bedroom (BR1) consists of a King-size bed, nightstands, a chest for your beach attire, a TV, and an ensuite bathroom with a granite countertop and a tile corner shower with a glass door. This downstairs area can be used for those who need more privacy or wish to go to bed early. The elevator can be activated during your stay for accommodating access to all three floors. There is both front and back outdoor seating on the ground level to take in the ocean breeze and views of salt grass and dunes. Rinse off in privacy with an outdoor shower around the backside of the house.

Proceed up to the second floor and come to a Master Bedroom (BR2) with a King-size bed, nightstands, chest, TV, and closet. The ensuite bathroom provides a pedestal sink and a large ADA handicap-accessible roll-in shower. The third bedroom (BR3) offers a King-size bed, nightstands, a chest, a TV, a closet with a private entrance to an adjoining bathroom accessible by a hall door. This bathroom holds a tub/shower and a granite-topped vanity. Located on this level is a kid's den that has so much to offer (BR4) with room to spread out and play, get a good night's rest with a Queen bed and a bunk bed with a twin over twin, and watch movies on the TV. Utilize the closet with a full-size washer and dryer during your stay. There is outdoor seating on both the front and back balconies to listen to the ocean waves and watch the distant ships pass in the channel.

Venture on up to the third level, where the heart of the home resides. The fully stocked kitchen is equipped with granite countertops, a pantry, brushed nickel fixtures, stainless steel appliances, a drip coffee maker, dishes, basic pots, pans, and utensils. The large dining table seats ten, and additional seating for four can be found at the breakfast bar. The living area is made for lounging with three accent chairs and a wall-mounted TV. The third Master bedroom (BR5) offers a King-size bed, nightstands, TV, and dresser. The ensuite ADA handicap-accessible bathroom offers a roll-in shower, granite-topped vanity, and large walk-in closet. There is also a half bath off the living area to serve this floor for added convenience. Take your morning coffee or cold beverage out to the front and balconies to take in the awe-inspiring views of the Gulf, Bay, sunrises, sunsets, acres of salt grass, and dunes.

There are two community pools to cool off in after a day at the beach or shopping. They are shared between 20 or so houses, and one is just around the corner. Stroll across the boardwalk for easy beach access, which is strictly for guests in the community. The boardwalk is an adventure itself in some of the most beautiful dune views, with a short 3-minute walk across to the beach.

The Happy Enchilada is an impeccable place to bring family and friends to experience all Port A has to offer. Approximately 1.7 miles to Palmilla golf course, 2.7 miles to Mustang Beach/Port Aransas Airport, and 3.3 miles to shops, restaurants, and nightlife, and 5.2 miles to the marina and fishing charters.
