Although not on the beach, this hotel is within four blocks and it is easy to walk or drive to a very nice area of the beach. There is no beach view from the hotel, however. The pool was being repaired and our room was smaller than one we had on a previous visit, but the breakfast was still very... More

Third or fourth trip to this hotel. Once again we had a problem with check-in and one day with getting the room cleaned. This seems to be par for the course at this hotel. Being a Priority Club member and having stayed at Holiday Inns in several different countries I very seldom have troubles at HI hotels and usually find... More

I hate to say negative things about a place I only spent....umm....12 mins at. I must explain, I am the picky one and my husband is the one who decided we must leave the hotel. I am unsure if it was the smell, the location - he was told the hotel was on the beach and it is not; doesn't... More

We were first given a very small room for the price we paid, but after talking to the front desk we were given a great room. We loved our stay there. Breakfast was very good, everything was very clean.

It's been about 5 years since we've had a family vacation and I thought it would be great to visit Port Aransas for Spring Break 2013. We planned on getting some sun, shopping, and having fun. Of all my experiences in hotels, none have ever been worthy of a review, but this time around, I can honestly say that it... More

We were there for a gathering of around 400 people - around Port A - not all at the hotel. This hotel was a known entity and at a reasonable price so we picked it.

The hotel is a bit worn looking and it's not that old. The pool was clean, but the hot tub was green and smelly. The beach is only a few blocks away. We checked in a bit early on Monday and were accommodated even though the hotel was busy the day before. That was really nice and we appreciate Liz... More

we recently stayed at the Holiday Inn in Port Aransas, TX and the location is actually perfect. There is a really nice resturant across the street and there is a pizza place within walking distance. The staff at the hotel were local so they could give us real opions on the resturants and what they liked about them.
