Island Hotel Port Aransas

When I checked in this evening, I asked for a bottom floor room, the check in person told me the room she assigned to me, it was her ONLY room, room 102. I opened the door to it and the bed was unmade from the previous guest. I went back to the office and told her, and her response was….. “Well, it’s the ONLY one we got!” And shrugged her shoulders as if to imply that I would have to just accept that one as is . I asked her is she wouldn’t mind cleaning my room for me and I would be back in a half hour and she said she would. When I got back, another guest was unable to check in, because they had lost her reservation so she was very angry. When she got to me, she handed me the key to room 110 instead. Suddenly there WAS another room available , this room, room 110! Even though less than an hour prior, I was told there was not another room available.

This motel was a fantastic place to stay! The room was very clean, and fully stocked. The staff were very attentive to any needs that arose, and they have optional room service, which I prefer to the random knocking every day. The ice machine was not working well, and when we brought this to the attention of the staff, they assumed someone filled their cooler, but in truth it wasn't functioning properly. The breakfast could have used more protein, but still had a good selection, and good coffee available 24/7! I will definitely be returning to this motel next year!

This hotel is awful. Motel but with hotel prices. Did not have running water when we stayed. Floors were so dirty all of our feet were black from walking in our hotel room. The doorknob to our door fell off and staff just said that’s how they are. This place is dirty and falling apart. Staff was extremely rude and not helpful. Staff also tried to blame us for not letting them know all the issues we had sooner. However we let them know every time. Ended up getting our money back for the next day and went to another hotel. Don’t go here.

Decent priced hotel. It was less expensive then some of the other nearby hotels. Very close to the beach and good restaurants. Good breakfast options. The ice machine was broken when we went but I'm sure they have it fixed by now.

This was a bad experience. I expected this NOT to be a nice place visually and had low expectations. However, they were unprepared for guests and made no attempt to make it right. Do not pay more than 100 dollars for these rooms. We tried to check in and there were no available rooms despite our reservation. Despite checkout being at 11am and check in at 4 pm they were unable to clean the rooms for their guests. We were given a room after pressing that we paid to be here. Then the room had zero towels. I went back to the front desk to request towels and was informed that there weren't any and there was no timeline for when they would be done. So no shower after a beach day before our nice dinner. The front desk woman basically said too bad and to try back later. When we finally did get towels its because I went to the employee lounge and knocked on the door and asked someone else to help me. the shower had no place to put soap or shampoo, no ledge so you have to put the soap down on the dirty floor or walk out of the bathroom with it in hand. The stall had no ledge so the water just can pour out into the bathroom. At check out, I asked for a receipt to which she informed me I couldn't have because I booked it through my credit card company. If you are going to take my card and make me sign for incidentals then you should be able to print me out a receipt for my stay. I never received an email with the receipt. We slept next to the loud parking lot, a barking dog, on scratchy sheets and basically, the only good part was that we didn't sleep in the car.

Our go to. Price was right for a weekday stay off season. Clean and comfy. Nice pool. Basic motel breakfast. Manager is a hoot, so personable! We always take our Chihuahua. No extra charge as rescue dogs are free.

Clean room, comfortable bed, friendly staff! They allow dogs and the hotel has great location, it’s close to everything! Our room had a fridge and a stove, which was nice to have. We enjoyed our stay!

I love this hotel! They allow dogs and have a great breakfast! Staff super friendly. Close to everything including the beach. Has a pool and outdoor grills for laid back outdoor hangout! Come here and enjoy your family and friends. Enjoy Port A
