STAY AWAY. You may want to save money, but this is NOT the way to do it. Filthy. Old. Disgusting. Bugs everywhere, lousy attitude of owner, who obviously gets first timers to the island and steals their money! You'd be cleaner and safer sleeping in a dumpster.

When I called to book the room the man seemed like he was bitter and trying to talk me out of even renting the room from him. He kept being very negative and my husband could hear him (he was sitting beside me) and asked if the guy was not really wanting us to stay. Not sure what that is... More

Before I say anything bad about this place I must start off with saying that Ms. Linda was really sweet and made us feel very welcome; did not experience any rudeness. However, the cottage we stayed at was nice and cold but also had roaches and crickets everywhere. There were also roaches in the closets. YUK! I would not recommend... More

I never even got a chance to book with them. I called to see if they had anything available for Labor Day weekend and he asked me the usual questions. He had a very thick accent and my kids were being a bit noisy so I asked him to repeat the prices of the rooms. He then yelled at me... More

This place is really ridiculous. We go every year at least 3 or 4 times and this is the first time I have been charged on canceling, over 24 hour notice. Rooms were dirty, stinky, air conditioner didn't work properly, parking sucked, no pool for kids and I'm surprised we didn't get a staph infection they were that dirty. Please... More

We decided to take a trip go Port Aransas at the last minute, and it was a holiday weekend, so very little was available. We thought Rock Cottages looked kind of funky and kitschy online. Wrong! They are just poorly maintained and dirty. The windows have not been cleaned in months? Years? There was dust and dirt caked all around... More

Rooms are just gross! Had taken kids years ago and they were family oriented and pleasant. Had decent furniture, curtains, etc. So, for old time sake, thought I would take grandchildren. Rented online and arrived to find a MESS. The owners are not American and the man's behavior let you know that before you get out of your car he... More

We have been here b4 as a last resort. We always seem to get the crappy rooms. This time we actually got to rent the rock cottage in front, it was well maintained compared to the back rooms. The only complaints I have would be $155 a night is alot for these rooms, and management complained to me about some... More
