Stayed there this past weekend with friends. We were greeted by a giant cockroach on the bathroom floor. Floors were filthy - muddy, sandy, stained. There was a dirty bathroom towel, the kitchen towel had hair all over it, hair all over bathroom floor, shower is dark and scary (we used the showers at the beach instead). Didn't get much... more

We stayed in cottage #6 and really had a great time. Chassidy and Chris were very helpful with any questions we had. The furnishings are typical of a beach cottage, but this place just has a nice feel to it. It's about 1/2 mile walk to the beach down Ave. G, we drove to it each time we visited the... more

My family has come to the Double Barr since 1998 (I first came in the 50s) and we have always stayed in Cabin 6. This year we had to stay in cabin 1 the first night and the earlier writer was correct that Cabin 1 is small. Double Barr's cabins are different sizes and when availability is open, the staff... more

Stayed at the Double Barr with my family, First off the screen door to our cottage was broken, as we were moving in Jennifer was there and I pointed it out, she said she would get it fixed, never did. All it needed was a pin for the door stopper, heck if I had a nail I would of put... more

I have found Tripadvisor reviews to be accurate. The owners at the Double Barr are nice and accomodating, there are a couple trailor "cottages," and the floors are dirty (it's the beach.) What surprised me after reading all the reviews is that our cottage was REALLY small and the Double Barr is listed as #2 in "other lodging" (when we... more

We enjoyed our stay quite a bit. The cottage was very cute. It was pretty clean except for the floors but I guess it's hard to keep the floors really clean at the beach. We had our two small children with us both under 4 years old. The managers couldn't have been nicer. They really worked with us on which... more

I have visited Port Aransas for over 40 years and always have stayed at the Double Barr. I originally stayed there as a child with my parents, enjoying the beach, fishing, and going out to great restaurants. 30 years later, and I am taking MY children. We would only stay at the Double Barr. Great value, clean, nicely furnished, two... more

Starting two weeks before our actual trip the customer service Chris, Chassidy and the rest of the gang provided was great. They showed us around a few of the different cottages so we could take our pick, plus made suggestions on which ones might be better since we were traveling in a large vehicle to make parking easier. On the... more

Great management, full kitchen, cable tv, comfortable beds, small accomodations but good use of space. more
