Great location to the beach and amenities in the surrounding area!
However…
The cabin itself was filthy upon first glance and figured we could get it taken care of while went to the beach. Stopped by the front desk to ask for it to be cleaned while we went to the beach and dinner. But when we got back, the old sandwich bread under the trash can and the febreeze was the only thing done.
Here is the remaining list of things we encountered as the night progressed:
- Freezer smelt like old fish (unusable)
- Shower had red bacteria & mold
- Dust all over
- Blinds has greasy texture all over them
- Sheets stained/possibly unwashed
- Found dead cockroaches
There’s a difference between old and dirty, unfortunately both are true here. After all this, they only took off the cleaning fee 😅
For a comparable price and location, don’t make the same mistake we did, go towards the newer buildings, south. We will be!

We rented the loft that sleeps 8 and it was okay. Some of the photos were confusing so we weren't exactly sure what we were getting. There are three queen beds and one pullout that's basically springs with a thin pad on top. The staircase is a death trap. The kids were fine with it but if you have any older people, don't plan on putting them upstairs. The AC units did a great job though. Also, we thought the unit had a washer/dryer but it's a laundry room in another building. And the floor needs to be mopped. I don't think it ever has been. Overall, it's what you'd expect for the price. The woman at the front office was very nice though. And it's ultra close to the beach.

The king bed had sand in it. The pull out bed was disgusting, rust on mattress and sheets, springs poking out and you could fill the bars from the couch.
They came and cleaned the room again and took our pillowcases. When I asked for them back. I heard excuses.
Not the best spring break but location was good.

Overall it was a great stay! The office staff was amazing. The only thing that ruined the vacation was the day of check out the housekeeping/cleaners were already knocking at the room at 9:20AM and unlocked the door and was about to come in until I stopped her. She goes “oh yall are still here?” I said well yes check is till 10AM and I have not even turn the key into the office. That was so unorganized and not safe. Besides that issue towards the end everything else was great!

Stayed at dog friendly Seashell Village for a 2 nights stay when visiting in Feb 2026. Arrived late for check in due to a 6 hour drive to arrive from West Texas. We were given a room on the third floor and no elevator but room was clean and bed was comfortable. Close drive to beach and local restaurants. Parking is tight. No check out instructions in the room so had to return to room to remove trash before check out. Most rental units like this with no daily maid service will post check out instructions in the room and this would have been helpful. I mentioned this suggestion to the staff on check out and her comment was, \"we don't post instructions in the room because you are verbally told instructions on check in\". This is true but older people tend to forget instructions if not written down. Anyway, it is an okay place to stay for a no frills visit.

Booked a last minute trip to Port A. The location was the best thing we liked about this place. It is an older property and very outdated. The mini fridge and microwave were dirty. There was a coffee maker but no cups or sugar/creamer to use, so kinda pointless. There was a leftover have used Gatorade in cabinet. The shower curtain smelled like mildew. We were told we would get our cleaning fee returned but that never happened. Disappointed but it had good reviews but we did not have the same experience.

Very Disappointed

We made a last minute reservation to go for the weekend. Booked the room for the price listed. Gave them a call to find out their office hours due to a late arrival (9:15) she informed they closed the office at 11. Received a call at 7:45 saying they were closing early and that I need to provide my DL and a credit card via email. I was unable to get access to my cc so I emailed my DL and she told me to come by in the morning and provide my CC for \"incidentals\". Upon arrival, the room was in disorder. There was no TV in the entertainment center in the living room and the TV in the bedroom did not work, there was no toilet paper or paper towels. Not exactly sure why they needed a CC for incidentals because none were available or provided. When I went to the office the next morning she also charged me a pet fee for which I was not aware. The listing said it was a pet friendly hotel but never mentioned a pet fee. Very disappointed in the place, we have stayed there before and had a great expirence. The employees were partaking in some illegal activities while working on \"cleaning\" the rooms also. Not sure if we'll return

Walking distance to the beach. We were on the top floor which gets the best sunsets and had two balconies.
But we had to move to this space, (at no extra cost) because the original suite we were offered was unclean and the smell was terrible.
There was mould on the closet wall in the bedroom and that added to the smell. Dust on the ceiling and wall in that area, so no deep clean for a long time. Windows were dirty, fridge was dirty. Had to ask for toilet paper and only one fork in the cutlery drawer. Cigarette butts, garbage and a bunch of hair on the balcony.
So a bunch of things that put together made us feel like leaving. Fortunately we were able to change rooms to something much cleaner, more equipped.
Its an older resort and it shows.

I think this is ok and very basic. There is zero decor in the room not even one picture, nor sofa pillows, nor rugs NOTHING. it’s very stale, the tub was moldy and yes the kitchen is equipped with 4 forks, 2 knives and 4 spoons none which match. If you want BASIC this is it… the pool area is pretty old and filled with loud screaming children… it’s not terrible but I wouldn’t go back. The best part is its proximity to beach and restaurant next door.

Blackout curtains would be nice along with pocket doors in bedroom to separate it from rest of space.

We had a late check in at this property so there wasn’t a front desk person to speak with. Upon check-in the room was not what was expected. We tried to wash our feet off bc there was sand on the floor and our shower didn’t even come on. The water was dripping but you couldn’t shower. The ceiling in bathroom had black mold. The refrigerator was dirty freezer matched. The bedroom wall had holes in it and all over our room did not look clean. When I spoke with front desk person at check out it was just a “I’m sorry we have plumbing issues”… this place takes $100 for just incidentals at check in.. I expected to at least have a clean room and a shower that worked. This was my first time in this area and I wasn’t impressed

The staff were easy to work with and tried to be helpful. The room we were put in was not what was booked. We were moved to a different room that was a bit more what was advertised. After moving to the new room we found the floors were filthy! You had to wear shoes or your feet were black. We had to wash our feet before getting in bed the first night. I asked to have the floor mopped while we were out for the day. It was mopped but that left a greasy/slimy mess on the floor. We place towels on the floor too keep our feet clean and to keep from slipping. There were roaches on the walls and cleaning was sub-par. The coffee pot looked to have never been cleaned. Then there was the furniture. The couch was so uncomfortable we chose to sit at the dinning table. The bathroom floors were so dirty even after mopping I took pictures to complain. The cleaning fee was removed from my bill. I was displeased with the charge of a 5 star hotel when we received a 2 star motel.

Paid $600 for two nights and expected at least basic cleanliness. Instead, we walked into a moldy, dusty, and poorly maintained unit that smelled stale and unclean. There was trash left from the previous guests, patched and peeling walls, and thick layers of dust on vents and surfaces. The A/C return was so clogged it looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in months, if not years. My wife ended up congested and stuffy within hours of being here.

This place calls itself a “resort” but offers zero service beyond a narrow one-hour towel swap window. Guests are told to wash their own dishes before leaving, which is fine — but if you’re going to make guests clean up, at least start them off with a clean and healthy unit.

For the price, this was unacceptable. We will not be returning, and I strongly recommend anyone with allergies, asthma, or any expectations of cleanliness to look elsewhere.

Overall, it was ok. Room was clean when we arrived. What was very frustrating was that we arrived Saturday and left Tuesday. No one ever came to take dirty towels and bring new ones, we ran out of toilet paper (they gave us one roll) and I had to track someone down for that. They never took our trash out. Basically from Saturday-Tuesday, no cleaning of our room, didn’t even knock on the door to offer or check. I did take my mini schnauzer and he supposedly barked when we left, and they did call to say someone was complaining about our barking dog. At that time, no one was in any of the rooms in our building, but I noticed an employee going to the floor above ours to clean. I’m not sure if that’s why it wasn’t cleaned or not, but they never even asked if we needed anything. The swimming pool was disgusting though - tons of hair chunks floating in it. The location was very close to the beach however.

The two pools were great to utilize in between beach time and visiting the shops and restaurants. The beach is in walking distance on Avenue G, but highly recommend a golf cart experience to enjoy more time to relax and ease of getting around. The hotel has units to rent on site. Also helps keep the sand out of your vehicle. Staff helped us check in late the first day with no issues. The room rates were better for our group of six than the local Airbnbs. We rented a pet friendly unit with with a kitchenette with stove top, microwave and full size fridge which worked out great. Not a full set of kitchenware, but enough for us to eat in some and dine out the rest. The vibe at this place is relaxed and family friendly. We will be staying here again when we come next time.
