2/10 Poor

Do not give these money ur money!!!
Checked in, reserved 2 rooms for 3 nights. Noticed A.C. in one room was not working properly, had it checked by staff 5 times with no relief. Spent first night in room with broken a.c. . When back to office on second morning to see what can be done, only to be told that they were booked up, had no more rooms.. Then tone changed talking to Kim. She didn't care what i had to say, and how upset i was, told me that i could put everyone in one room, each room has 1 bed. And foldout couch . . Or i could take a fan for room with no a.c. Finally i asked for refund on room we are not using so we could find another room somewhere else. So kim gave me a 2 night refund After my credit card went thru for rooms, then kim went in a canceled refund without telling me why or communicating in any way... These people are giving Port A a bad name They do not care if customers are happy, them seem like at check-in, but if you have an issue... they become vicious... If you are allergic to mold do not stay here, showers are full of mold . Pass this place up.. spend ur money elsewhere.. Never will i stay here again and will tell everyone i know not to either.

Stayed here before
Ive stayed here before with family but that that was about 10 years ago and nothing has changed for the better here. If you are looking for just a stay and not expecting much then this is your place. Our TV was not working and when maintenance came they could not get it working so we got upgraded to another room. The staff is friendly and will make sure you have what you need and they gave us plenty of towels. Location is convient to places in the area that i usually visit so that was a plus for me

The location was perfect to shopping, fishing, and the beach. The center of the property was lush with thick green carpet grass that included several picnic areas with bbq pits. It also has a playground, swings, horseshoes, pool and jacuzzi. Also there are rustic double chairs with a table which provides a little seating area right outside of your room. Our stay was perfect our family rented a few rooms and it was nice to gather in park area as we called it. Loved it and we have already booked another stay.

Everyone here was so lovely. They are family owned and run, but it doesn’t feel like a camera is on you 24/7. Check in was nice and easy and even let us come a few hours early since a room was ready for us. Will be back!!

We just love this place. Its our 3rd time to stay here. Clean,friendly staff and the rooms are spacious and very clean. Pool is amazing as always! Location is great close to everything you can walk or head right across the street and rent a golf cart. We only booked for 1 night but as we were checking in,we booked another night.

Stayed 2 nights for a weekend getaway. Paid for 2 nights upfront plus additional deposit. Options were $100 cash or $125 for Credit card deposit. Parking is limited, tight and difficult to pull out of if trailers are left unhooked. AC was cold but we were told not to adjust the AC or it may freeze and not work again. Room was ok but the pull-out couch looked dingy. Biggest disappointment was the cockroaches, spiders and insects we had. After check-in I looked up previous reviews and saw multiple complaints of the cockroaches. Owner replies they are family owned, do not have a roach problem but they have pest control come in once a month. I recommend pest control comes twice a month. My husband found 2 dead roaches in the bathroom when we arrived. After that it was a spider in the corner of the shower, water bugs and other pests from the shower drain or under the sink. I killed at least 5 different, LARGE roaches and we had to always wear shoes and leave the bathroom light on so we didn't step on bugs in the middle of the night. I had asked housekeeping if they had any bug spray I could use and was told "they weren't allowed to have any" and I could drive up the street to CVS to buy some. I carry my own travel bedding/pest spray and used half the bottle trying to protect our personal items and bed area. I didn't want to complain to mgmt because I didn't want a false claim of room damages and lose deposit. For the price, I'll book a chain hotel next time I travel to Port A.

Annual Beach trip.
Stay was wonderful as always. Clean, comfortable. The internet/wifi didn’t work, but it’s the beach who really spends that much time in the room. Ac unit was brand new but pre set to 72, which isn’t that cold for us. But we survived the “hot” room and the tropical storm.

Door to bathroom would not shut maintenance came by was their 10 minutes and said you just got to kick the bottom in to shut. Shower did not look like it was cleaned paper thin walls dog would not stop barking next to us usually a good time here. Just got a bad room staff was very nice also refrigerator smelt like dead bait upon opening it wasn’t working so instead of taking it out and replacing it they just shut it hoping we would not open. It smelt so bad we had to leave for a couple hours
