My wife and I stayed there with our 2 kids. The hotel was decent, it wasn’t great but wasn’t the worst, for a pet friendly hotel guess we get what we get, the first night the linen had a distinct cat piss smell to it as well as our bathroom, although the room looked presentable. So we asked for new linen the following day, which one bed there was a red stain but didn’t stink. The second night was just a nightmare but it’s the people I guess that the hotel attracts, very loud and obnoxious throughout the night and Mr. Cool guy at 1:45am just felt like revving his mustang for an hour and doing burnouts. Breakfast, well could’ve been better, by the time we got to eat either it already been picked over or just non existent, we were left with either Waffles, cereal or maybe a bagel. This hotel, would be good if you’re in a rush and maybe the only option you have and I’m sure there are a few hotels that could be worse, as I said in the beginning, the stay wasn’t great but it wasn’t completely horrible

They would not let you check in early. If a room was available, they would charge a $50 early check in fee. Check in is at 4pm, we arrived around 10am and asked to be contacted when our room was ready. Got a call around 2pm that the room was ready, but if we attempted to check in before 3:30pm we would have to pay an early check in fee of $50. It seemed ridiculous. Maybe if we asked to have the room ready ASAP my maid service, then I could understand the fee. But a ready and unoccupied room…..

Hotel is somewhat old but overall accommodating. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They made sure we had all that was needed for our stay. We spent most of our time at the beach and not at the Hotel. We did not try the breakfast since we went elsewhere to eat. Overall, had a good experience.

This hotel has changed since 2021, which was the last time we stayed there. The entire grounds are unkept, the ac units run very badly, towels smell unwashed, and there was hair everywhere. This will be the 5th time we’ve stayed at this hotel and this time will be the last. Not sure what happened to the original owners but we were very saddened on how bad it’s become.

Convenient and friendly

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. It’s an older property but kept up with. Rooms were clean and the AC worked great!! Pool was well maintained and the kids used it daily. Property is conveniently located to the beach and various locations within Port Aransas. Only downside, parking lot is not boat friendly.

My husband and I checked in on Friday July 18th with our grandson. We arrived at around 6:30 pm. We had issues from the moment we arrived. The key card didn't work. Called the office, they said we needed to go down and have the key cards reprogrammed. My husband went down, came back, it still didn't work. We called again, were told the lock probably needed a new battery. We had planned on resting from our 3 hour drive, then getting in the pool. We didn't end up making it to the pool until after 8pm because we had to wait for them to come change the battery. Tested the card, it worked. Coming back from the pool, we're stuck outside our room at 10 o'clock at night because the key card again doesn't work. We called the office AGAIN, they say they'll have to replace the whole lock. We were up until after 12:30 am with our room door open and the maintenance guy trying to get the lock replaced. This morning, Saturday as we're leaving to go to the beach, my husband closes the door and the door handle comes off in his hand. He sticks it back on and we called AGAIN. We're told they will send someone to fix it. I called in the evening to check the status and I'm told they fixed the handle but the card is still not 100% working. They tell me once we get back from the beach, stop by the office for new key cards and so the maintenance man can meet us and show us " the trick" to getting into our room. There shouldn't need to be a "trick"! We got ZERO empathy from management.

Good stay

We had a good stay here. Check in was a little rough, took awhile to get checked in, only had 1 working computer and a line of people at 4:00. Took longer when some of the other guests had an issue so that made all us others waiting wait even longer. The rooms very clean. Sheets and bed clean. Smelled clean no odor. Breakfast very basic offerings. Coffee good. Pool nice and clean. Did have to ask for more towels only supplied bathroom with 2. Staff nice and helpful. Would help if they had black out curtains hard to sleep with lights lighting up room all night. Heard no noise it was quite. Would stay again.

Not my fav

The check-in process wasn't great. Only one of the computers was working, so even though there were two employees, only one was on the computer and she had a language barrier that made it difficult for several guests ahead of me in line. The breakfast was limited when we got there about 8:45...waffles, 2 bagels, no fruit, no yogurt, no protein. The room smelled strongly of bleach when we got there, which I don't hate knowing it was clean, but it was heavy. The neighbors stayed out on the breezeway loudly drinking and hanging out until midnight. It was very no-frills, but the price was right for such an impromptu trip.
