Great place and location. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Location is a few minutes from the center of the town but for us that’s perfect. It’s nice to have a nice quiet place at the end of a full beach day.

Average place to stay.

Beds were clean and the cleaning service is great. They do t automatically clean so you do have to request ahead of time. Tub stopper was broken and I like to be able soak so that was a point deduction for me. Breakfast was included and has typical dry cereals, toasts, bagels, yogurt, juice, and waffles that you make yourself. The toaster didn’t work and only one waffle maker was working so if you’re ok with waiting 30-40 minutes to make waffles then you would have hot waffles.

Do Not Stay Here.

Upon arrival, room was unsanitary and nasty. The bedding on both beds were stained, as was majority of the towels, and the shower curtain. BUG INFESTED. Hotel does not have routine housekeeping. If you want your room cleaned, you must request it only from 10AM-2PM, but even then there is a list. If the list is full for the day, you will not be serviced. Since bedding was disgusting, asked for new bedding and it was eventually replaced as was the towels to only be replaced with MORE DIRTY sheets and towels. It is as if they don’t believe in doing laundry. The shower was clogged, took approximately ten minutes for the water in the shower to completely drain after each shower. Don’t recommend. No matter what, do not waste your time, money, or breath staying here. Wish I could give 0 stars.

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.
