My family and I try to visit Port A at least twice a year. We usually stay at Best Western or Travel lodge, but this year for Spring Break we decided to try something different. We made a great choice! The staff was GREAT, and very pet friendly(our puppy loved all the attention he got!)! Our cottage was very clean,... more

This was my wife's and I third year coming there. And every year it gets better and better. My wife adores the cottages, she thinks they are "so cute". The manager there was very nice and really cared about us enjoying our stay. She was very helpful in letting us know new activities that were going on in town. The... more

My husband, my 2yr old son and I wanted a nice weekend. We booked a doubel room at the Double Barr. Their web site looked so nice. When we got there we got the keys and walked to our room. They didn't tell us we were staying in a run down trailer. The place stunk like cigatettes and the floor... more

The only thing good I can say about the cottages is that the beds were ok... that being said the whole place was horribly outdated. The couch was hard and probably had never been cleaned. The bathroom is so small I had a hard time kneeling down between the sink and toliet to give my toddler a bath. It was... more

We have stayed at the Double Barr numerous times over the past three years and everytime we go to Port A we phone them first. They are always accomodating and the rooms are clean. We like the fact that all the rooms have kitchenettes and Shelly is always friendly. more

I read the review on this webpage first,and thought maybe it would be better than it sounds. Guess what, its worse. The rooms smelled really bad, kind of moldy. The kitchen did not have a coffeemaker. The bathroom was very small, you had to be very thin, not to get claustrophobia. We rented a cottage close to the street, with... more

Shelley Borden, Manager

At Double Barr, we always strive very hard to make every guest happy while staying here. However, it's difficult to know a guest is unhappy when they choose not to inform management about issues with our cottages. The coffee maker was replaced promptly after it was broken. Small children and approved pets are allowed here, however we prefer they not...

I have a man that loves to fish in Port Aransas and has done so for 15 years. We started staying at the Double Barr Cottages back 10 years, I believe. We have stayed a total of 15 times and each time we have loved our stay. When it rained we stayed in and played dominoes at the nice kitchen... more

My husband and I and our dog Whyl'ee stayed at the double Barr from Friday on Memorial weekend until Tues. of the next week. We have stayed at other cottages that had kitchens. Double Barr has the cleanist and most equipped kitchens, everything was extremely clean and you could not ask for a better reception on entering the office. It... more

My brother-in-law and I stayed at the "DBC" four days and nights right after the Labor Day holidays while pier and shore fishing the local area. We found the cottage to be a perfect economical base of operations to work from. The unit was clean, linens crisp, clean and abundant, shower water super hot and the a/c was downright frigid!... more

Just stayed there in a August vacation, a nice quiet place everything near by, I don't know about the other rooms but the Air Condition would never keep the room cool, kitchen was cool but the two seperate bedrooms were HOT ceiling fans would do the trick for this place . I don't think I would stay there again we... more
