“Attention to Detail”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 4, 2012

This was our 3rd time staying at 3rd Coast Inn. Many upgrades since the last time we stayed. Our daughter enjoyed having the DVD player to watch movies at night and sitting in the swinging chair by the pool. The new plants and gardens have really made the place look nice. We made some new friends and hope to get together again next summer (or maybe this winter) at 3rd Coast Inn.

Room Tip: No need to rent a bike, or bring beach toys. There is a huge (FREE) selection to choose from at the...

“Cozy and Clean Near the Beach”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 19, 2012

We spent a long vacation at 3rd Coast between selling one house and buying another; it was a wonderful place to get away. It's ideally situated in the middle of Port A, within walking distance of shops and restaurants, and the place is very clean and the beds are comfy. We stayed in a 2 bedroom unit: the kitchen area was pretty small without much counter space, but it's nicely equipped with a full-sized fridge, a 4 top burner range with an oven, a microwave and a coffee pot, so if you use the kitchen table as counter space, you can pretty much cook anything you want. There is also a nice grill area with picnic tables by the pool and charcoal and lighters are provided. The window A/C units kept the room nice and cold - wonderful in the summer! The pool is great - my toddler loved the 1 foot deep area, and the grown-ups liked the hot tub. The color changing lights in the pool were really fun. We stayed for 10 days or so, and we were never disturbed by noise from the trash cans next door early in the morning like a reviewer said below. I think they must be emptying those during the daytime now or something, because we were really near the dumpster in question. We loved the laid back vibe of the place and how few families we had to share the pool with - it felt very private. Darcy and Deanne are super nice, cheerful and accommodating. The hospitality was outstanding. Can't wait to go back.

“Absolutely perfect.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 2, 2012 via mobile

Loved this place. It is not the normal big room, fake employees, gawdy hotel. No this place is a quaint little getaway next to the beach that you just have to stay at. Loved the music it could have gone all night long and I would have been in heaven.

“Must Stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 29, 2012 via mobile

This was my first trip to Port A. We loved the location very close to the beach and everything else. Very clean and cozy. Everyone was very nice and very accommodating. What made it even better was they are pet friendly so we could bring our dog, and they had a little welcome basket for her which was a nice touch. We will definitely be booking here next year.
