Decided to book a last minute one day fishing trip to Port Aransas. It is Spring Break, so there were almost no choices, and most places made you book for 2 nights, so I settled on this place. It is truly a no frills motel. The clerk at the front desk was very nice during the check in. It is... More

I have been a traveler to North Padre Island for 49 years. The Island lives off of mostly the tourist trade especially in the summer time. It has the open ocean called the Gulf of Mexico. Fishing both inland Flats and deep ocean are readily available. The island is slow to develope and contained until maybe the last 10 or... More

When we opened the door, the room smelled stagnant. The bedding was wrinkled and had definitely been used already. Blood on the wall from where some one had smashed a bug. Black hairs in the shower drain. No carpeting. Just a dirty floor that was disgusting. We asked for a nonsmoking room. The couch had a cigarette burn in it.... More

Where to start? The bedding was worn and had holes. The coverlet had stains. Dirty and worn carpet. Foul odors at times. All surfaces were dirty, worn or stained, or all three. Failed to clean room and make beds, although lack of cleaning would be hard to discern. The worst place we've stayed in for over 30 years. Refurbish or... More

Only redeeming features is its proximity to The Back Porch Bar!! Other than that see through towels, mouldy shower curtain, bedding at worst needs to be washed and best renewed. Not a room to hang around in , or balcony to enjoy the view from. Highly unlikely we will be passing through again but if we ever drive the Texas... More

Stayed again this year and it was a wonderful experience. Friendly and attentive staff, good breakfast choices, clean rooms, great location. Only weekend noisy people this time was a motorcycle rider who kept his radio on when he started his cycle x 2 after 10:00 p.m. Other than that, no problems.

We were invited on a fishing trip with friends. Always location sensitive (especially in first-time locations) we chose Captain's Quarters since it's across the street from the docks. The management/staff were attentive and friendly. For the cost I thought it was a great value. The couple reviews written about the poor condition don't reflect our experience. The hotel was well-kept... More

I visit Port Aransas often, and have stayed at the Captain's Quarters a few times because its pretty convenient if you want to go fishing at the docks across the street. Also heard about it from a colleague who seems to stay here. The hotel must be under new management, because I didn't recognize the GM from my last visit... More

I don't know where these ppl r use to staying that gave this place a good review, me and my family wanted something right on the ocean but not at the expense of staying in filth!
